GENERAL SERVICES

ADMINISTRATION

Public Buildings Service

Notice of Intent To Prepare an

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)

SUMMARY: The General Services

Administration (GSA) hereby gives

notice it intends to prepare an

Environmental Impact Statement

pursuant to the requirements of the

National Environmental Policy Act

(NEPA) of 1969, and the President’s

Council on Environmental Quality

Regulations (40 CFR Parts 1500–1508),

as implemented by GSA’s Order PBS P

1095.4B to dispose of excess federal

property known as Governors Island in

New York, New York.

The EIS will evaluate the proposed

project, the no-action alternative, and

any other reasonable alternatives

identified through the scoping process.

Scoping will be accomplished through

direct mail correspondence with

interested persons, parties, and

organizations and through Public

Scoping Meetings to be held in

Manhattan and Brooklyn. GSA will

publish a Public Notice of these

meetings and all subsequent meetings in

local newspapers approximately seven

to ten days prior to each event.

WRITTEN COMMENTS/FURTHER

INFORMATION: As part of the Public

Scoping process, GSA solicits your

written comments on the scope of

alternatives and potential impacts at the

following address: Peter A. Sneed,

Senior Program Analyst, Portfolio

Management Division, General Services

Administration, 26 Federal Plaza, Room

1609, New York, NY 10278. Written

comments should be received no later
64384 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 234 / Friday, December 5, 1997 / Notices

than January 2, 1998. Requests for

further information may also be

forwarded to this address.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The GSA

is anticipating the preparation of an

Environmental Impact Statement on a

proposal to dispose of excess federal

property in New York, New York. GSA

will serve as the lead agency and

scoping will be conducted consistent

with NEPA regulations and guidelines.

GSA invites interested individuals,

organizations, and Federal, State, and

local agencies to participate in defining

the reasonable alternatives to be

evaluated in the EIS, and in identifying

any significant social, economic, or

environmental issues related to the

alternatives. During scoping, comments

should focus on identifying specific

impacts to be evaluated and suggesting

alternatives that minimize adverse

significant impacts while achieving

similar objectives. Comments may also

identify issues which are not significant

or which have been covered by prior

environmental review. Scoping should

be limited to commenting on

alternatives and the merit of the

proposal rather than indicating

preferences. There will be an

opportunity to comment on preferences

upon completion of the Draft

Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS).

Mailing List: If you wish to be placed

on the project mailing list to receive

future or further information as the EIS

develops, contact Peter A. Sneed at the

address noted above.

Project Purpose, Historical

Background, and Project: On October

16, 1995, the United States Coast Guard

(USCG) announced it would close

Governors Island by the end of summer

1997. The decision to close Governors

Island was made in response to the

Presidential mandate to meet the goals

of the National Performance Review and

the Government Performance and

Results Act. The present organization of

Governors Island will transition to a 60-

person Caretaker Detachment that will

provide security, fire protection and

facility maintenance. Disposal of the

Island is the responsibility of the

General Services Administration. On

August 5, 1997, President Clinton

signed into law, legislation for the sale

of Governors Island. This special

legislation incorporated as part of the

Balanced Budget Act of 1997 directs the

Administrator of General Services

Administration to sell Governors Island

at fair market value. The State and City

of New York have right of first offer to

purchase all or part of the Island at fair

market value.

Alternatives: The EIS will examine

the short and long term impacts on the

natural and built environment. Potential

impact assessment will include but not

be limited to changes in land use and

zoning, changes to air and water quality,

changes to traffic patterns, and impacts

to historic and cultural resources.

The EIS will also examine measures

to mitigate significant unavoidable

adverse impacts resulting from the

proposed action. Concurrent with NEPA

implementation, GSA will also

implement its consultation

responsibilities under Section 106 of the

Natural Historic Preservation Act to

identify potential impacts to existing

historic or cultural resources.

The EIS would consider a no-action

alternative and an action alternative

which would identify several reuse

options. The no-action alternative (nosale) would keep Governors Island in

Federal ownership. The preferred action

alternative is the sale of Governors

Island.

Procedures: The Draft EIS will be

prepared at the completion of and based

upon a scoping report. The Draft EIS

will then be made available for public

and agency review and comment with a

public hearing being held during this

comment period. A Final EIS would be

prepared following conclusion of the

comment period to address issues raised

on the Draft EIS.

Dated: November 28, 1997.

Acting Regional Administrator (2A).
