SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

FHWA, in cooperation with the Arizona 

Department of Transportation (ADOT), 

will prepare an Environmental Impact 

Statement (EIS) on proposed operational 

improvements to the Interstate 17 (I–17) 

corridor in Maricopa County, Arizona. 

The proposed improvements for I–17 

would occur along a 21-mile stretch of 

highway through metropolitan Phoenix 

from the I–17 merge with Interstate 10 

near Sky Harbor Airport and extend 

north to the I–17 interchange with State 

Route 101L. The proposed project 

evaluation will include, but will not be 

limited to, potential impacts to 

residential and commercial 

development, cultural resources, 

threatened and endangered species, 

jurisdictional waters of the U.S., air and 

noise quality, hazardous materials, and 

secondary and cumulative impacts. 

Improvements to the corridor are 

considered necessary to address current 

traffic volumes that exceed the existing 

roadway capacity resulting in heavy 

congestion and to accommodate the 

projected traffic demand associated with 

regional growth. The proposed I–17
