"The WyCal Supplement to the Mojave-Kern River-El Dorado Natural Gas Pipeline Final Environmental Impact Report/Statement (FEIR/S) is a joint document prepared by the California State Lands Commission (SLC) and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to fulfill the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). These two agencies in coordination with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the USDA Forest Service (FS), and other federal agencies have directed the preparation of this joint federal and state document. This proposed pipeline project, like the Mojave Pipeline Company (Mojave) and Kern River Gas Transmission Company (Kern River) projects discussed in the FEIR/S, would transport natural gas from various sources outside of California to the Bakersfield, California, area for use in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and related cogeneration projects. ... The proposed Wyoming-California Pipeline Company (WyCal) pipeline would extend from Lincoln County in southwestern Wyoming across Utah and southern Nevada to a juncture point in San Bernardino County in California, where it would intersect with another portion of the proposed route which would extend from western Mohave County in Arizona across San Bernardino County and into Kern County, California. They WyCal route in fact represents a combination of the Kern River proposed pipeline route from Wyoming and extending into southern Nevada, the East Las Vegas System Alternative, and the Mojave proposed pipeline route across southern California"--Page s-1
