MAXWELL, Chief Judge.
Plaintiff, the Upper West Fork River Watershed Assoc., essentially seeks to enjoin further work on the Stonewall Jackson Lake Project in Lewis County, West Virginia, until alleged deficiencies in the environmental impact statement (the “EIS”) relating to the project are cured. 1 The lake project, to be completed by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, will require approximately 21,000 acres of privately owned land in the West Fork River basin. The project is for flood control and other purposes; its dam will create a lake of 3,470 acres when at full pool.
