Federal Highway Administration 

Environmental Impact Statement; Cole 

County, MO 

AGENCY: Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of intent. 

SUMMARY: The FHWA is issuing this 

notice to advise the public that an 

environmental impact statement (EIS) 

will be prepared for proposed 

improvements to U.S. 50/U.S. 63, (Rex 

Whitton Expressway), in Jefferson City, 

Cole County, Missouri. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. 

Peggy Casey, Environmental Projects 

Engineer, FHWA Division Office, 3220 

West Edgewood, Suite H, Jefferson City, 

MO 65109, Telephone: (573) 638–2620 

or Mr. Kevin Keith, Chief Engineer, 

Missouri Department of Transportation, 

P.O. Box 270, Jefferson City, MO 65102, 

Telephone: (573) 751–2803. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

FHWA, in cooperation with the 

Missouri Department of Transportation 

(MoDOT), will prepare an EIS for a 

proposal to upgrade the existing U.S. 

50/U.S. 63 (Rex Whitton Expressway) 

facility. MoDOT completed a Problem 

Definition Study for the study area in 

April 2006. The study identified issues 

and potential concepts to address the 

issues. 

The proposed action will accomplish 

several goals: (1) Provide sufficient 

roadway capacity and improve traffic 

operations, (2) improve traffic safety, (3) 

address geometric and structural 

deficiencies, (4) and improve access to 

major activity centers and encourage 

development. 

The proposed project study area is 

defined as the area in Jefferson City 

from just east of the U.S. 50/U.S. 54 Trilevel interchange to the Eastland Drive 

interchange for an approximate length 

of 3 miles; and from 300 feet south of 

U.S. 50/U.S. 63 to McCarty Street on the 

north. An additional area to the north of 

McCarty will be studied to address 

access to the Missouri State Prison 

Redevelopment site. The width of the 

study area varies from 400 to 800 feet. 

Known potential impacts include 

access changes, and residential, 

commercial and institutional 

acquisitions/relocations. Properties 

eligible for the National Register of 

Historic Places which are protected by 

Section 4(f) of the Department of 

Transportation Act of 1966 may also be 

impacted. Other potential Section 4(f) 

impacts are to the East Miller Park, the 

Lincoln University Recreation Park, and 

the Lincoln University Tennis Courts. 

The Lincoln University Tennis Courts 

are also protected by the Land and 

Water Conservation Fund Act 

requirements. A floodplain 

development permit from the State 

Emergency Management Agency may be 

required. 

It is anticipated that the following 

will be invited to be participating 

agencies on this project: The U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency, the 

U.S. Department of Housing and Urban 

Development, the U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife 

Service, the State Emergency 

Management Agency, the Missouri 

Department of Conservation, the 

Missouri Department of Natural 

Resources, and the State Historic 

Preservation Office. 

Alternatives under consideration 

include: (1) No build, (2) build 

alternatives, and (3) transportation 

management options. The Problem 

Definition Study looked at a number of 

alternatives but made no 

recommendation. The EIS will look at 

the work done in this study as a starting 

point and use this information in 

developing and evaluating the 

reasonable alternatives. 

To date, preliminary coordination has 

occurred with local officials and other 

interested parties. A public meeting and 

two stakeholder meetings were held 

during the Problem Definition Study. As 

part of the scoping process, an
