Federal Register for Federal-aid project

Administrator, Federal Highway

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

FHWA, in cooperation with the 

Alabama Department of Transportation, 

is rescinding the NOI to prepare an EIS 

for Federal-aid project NCPD– 

PE02(910). The proposed project was to 

construct a multi-lane, limited access 

roadway to provide a connecting link in 

the freeway/Interstate system between 

Interstate 59/Interstate 20 (I–59/I–20) 

near the Mississippi state line and I–85 

in Montgomery, Alabama. The study 

area included large parts of six Black 

Belt Counties (Dallas, Hale, Lowndes, 

Marengo, Perry, and Sumter), as well as 

Autauga and Montgomery Counties. 

The NOI for the project was published 

in the Federal Register on September 

20, 2005. A draft EIS was released in 

April 2010. The FHWA has determined, 

in conjunction with ALDOT, the NOI for 

the project shall be rescinded due to 

changes in economic projections and 

the lack of available funding. ALDOT 

has reassessed the needs and timing for 

the completion of this project and 

indefinitely postponed development. 

Any future Federal-aid actions within 

this corridor will comply with 

environmental review requirements of 

the National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA, 42 U.S.C. 4321, et seq.), FHWA 

environmental regulations (23 CFR 771) 

and related authorities, as appropriate. 

Authority: 23 U.S.C. 315; 49 CFR 1.48. 

(Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance 

Program Number 20.205, Highway Planning 

and Construction. The regulations 

implementing Executive Order 12372 

regarding intergovernmental consultation on 

Federal programs and activities apply to this 

program.)

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Highway Administration 

Rescinding the Notice of Intent for an 

Environmental Impact Statement; 

Multiple Counties, Alabama 

AGENCY: Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA), DOT. 

ACTION: Rescind Notice of Intent. 

SUMMARY: The FHWA is issuing this 

notice to advise the public that the 2006 

Record of Decision (ROD) and the Final 

Environmental Impact Statements 

(FEISs) for Federal-aid projects DPS– 

A002(002) and DPS–A002(003), the 

Memphis to Atlanta transportation 

corridor, in multiple counties in 

Alabama is rescinded. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Mark D. Bartlett, Division 

Administrator, Federal Highway 

Administration, 9500 Wynlakes Place, 

Montgomery, Alabama 36117; Email: 

mark.bartlett@dot.gov; Telephone: (334) 

274–6350. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

FHWA, in cooperation with the 

Alabama Department of Transportation 

(ALDOT), is rescinding the ROD and 

FEISs for projects DPS–A002(002) and 

DPS–A002(003) [previously DPS– 

A002(001)]. The proposed projects were 

to construct a multi-lane, limited access 

roadway that would function as a major 

segment of the Memphis to Atlanta 

transportation corridor. The roadway 

would have proved a direct link 

between the two metropolitan areas. 

DPS–A002(002) contained the western 

portion of the corridor between 

interstate 65 (I–65) and the Mississippi 

state line and located in Colbert, 

Lawrence, Morgan and Limestone 

Counties. DPS–A002(003) contained the 

eastern portion of the corridor between 

I–65 and the Georgia state line and 

located in Cherokee, Dekalb, Marshall, 

Madison, and Limestone Counties. 

The ROD for the projects was issued 

August 31, 2006. The FHWA has 

determined, in conjunction with 

ALDOT, the ROD and the FEIS for the 

projects shall be rescinded due to 

objections raised by Redstone Arsenal. 

The Arsenal objected to a public 

roadway passing through Arsenal 

property due to increased security 

concerns. 

Any future Federal-aid actions within 

this corridor will comply with 

environmental review requirements of 

the National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA, 42 U.S.C. 4321, et seq.), FHWA 

environmental regulations (23 CFR 771) 

and related authorities, as appropriate. 

Authority: 23 U.S.C. 315; 49 CFR 1.48.

Program Number 20.205, Highway Planning
