The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) and the New Mexico Interstate Stream Commission (NMISC) prepared an environmental impact statement (EIS) on Carlsbad Project water operations and water supply conservation to address changes in the operation of Sumner Dam, located on the Pecos River, New Mexico, and implementation of a proposed water acquisition program in the Pecos River Basin. Reclamation is the lead federal agency and the NMISC is a joint lead agency for NEPA compliance for the proposed action. The purpose of Reclamation's proposed federal action is to conserve the Pecos bluntnose shiner, a federally threatened fish species, and to conserve the Carlsbad Project water supply. The underlying need for Reclamation action is compliance with the Endangered Species Act and Reclamation's responsibility to conserve the Carlsbad Project water supply.
