The Pit River Tribe (Tribe) submitted an application to the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), Pacific Region, to transfer approximately 40.24 acres of land into federal trust status for the benefit of the Tribe (Proposed Action). The project site consists of six parcels located within Section 35, Township 35 North, Range 3 East, on the southeastern side of the Four Corners intersection of State Route 299 and State Route 89 (SR-299 and SR-89) in Shasta County, California.

The purpose of the Proposed Action is to support future economic development opportunities, which may include the construction of a truck stop, restaurant, hotel, commercial spaces, RV park, and parking lot. These improvements are intended to create jobs, stimulate the local economy, and provide services to travelers in the region.

The BIA has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) to evaluate the potential environmental impacts of the Proposed Action and the No Action Alternative. Based on the EA, a draft, unsigned Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) has been prepared.
