An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) process has been initiated to assess the environmental consequences of the National Indian Gaming Commission’s (NIGC) approval of a management contract between the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria (Tribe) and SC Sonoma Management, LLC. The foreseeable consequence of this federal action will be the development of a casino/hotel resort either on the Wilfred site, the Stony Point site or the Lakeville site, in Sonoma County, California.

The EIS describes and analyzes six development alternatives and a No Action alternative. Alternative A is the Tribe’s Proposed Alternative. Development alternatives have been selected which meet the Purpose and Need, although at varying degrees for each.
