combating forced labor in global supply 

chains more broadly. 

In addition, the SPOG has created a 

few ad hoc working groups. Unlike the 

committees, these working groups are 

time-limited and formed to accomplish 

specific goals. As of the publication of 

this RFI, the SPOG has three active ad 

hoc working groups: 

• Ad Hoc Working Group on Demand 

Reduction—To examine the role of 

demand reduction in preventing human 

trafficking or otherwise achieving the 

purposes of the TVPA and the Justice 

for Victims of Trafficking Act 

(consistent with Sec. 115 of Pub. L. 115– 

425). 

• Ad Hoc Working Group on Rights 

and Protections of Temporary 

Workers—To analyze and compare the 

rights and protections granted to 

workers of each employment-based 

nonimmigrant visa category to identify 

which categories require additional 

protections related to the recruitment 

and treatment of workers; and to discuss 

ways to address any gaps and 

inconsistencies, including developing 

and proposing necessary regulatory or 

legislative changes (consistent with 

Priority Action 1.5.2 of the National 

Action Plan to Combat Human 

Trafficking). 

• Ad Hoc Working Group on 

Screening Forms and Protocols—To 

develop best practices in implementing 

screening forms and protocols as 

relevant for all federal officials who 

have the potential to encounter a human 

trafficking victim in the course of their 

regular duties that do not otherwise 

pertain to human trafficking (consistent 

with Priority Action 2.1.1 of the 

National Action Plan to Combat Human 

Trafficking). 

II. Information Sought Relevant To 

Conducting Anti-Trafficking Work 

Using a Racial Equity Lens 

Submissions should include, but need 

not be limited to, answers to relevant 

questions below for which the submitter 

has direct personal or professional 

experience. Please see the Scope of 

Interest section above for detailed 

information regarding submission 

requirements. 

1. What does racial equity mean in the 

context of human trafficking? What does 

a racially equitable anti-trafficking 

framework look like, particularly for a 

law enforcement response and 

prosecution response, victim assistance 

efforts, and prevention strategy? Are 

there specific considerations for 

responding to sex trafficking and to 

labor trafficking, including forced labor? 

2. Please describe any racial injustice, 

inequity, or unfairness you have 

observed or experienced that resulted 

from a federal anti-trafficking activity 

(please specify the relevant policy, 

practice, or program). Do you have 

recommendations for how this should 

be corrected? 

3. How have federal anti-trafficking 

policies, programs, and systems created 

barriers to advancing racial equity, and 

how might the executive branch address 

and help reduce these barriers? 

4. What promising approaches or 

efforts have been successful in 

embedding a racial equity lens in antitrafficking work? What examples and/or 

data are available to support this? 

5. What can SPOG agencies 

individually and the SPOG collectively 

do to advance racial equity and integrate 

it into federal anti-trafficking work 

domestically and internationally— 

particularly in the areas of investigation 

and prosecution, victim services 

(commenters may specify specific 

populations, such as people of color, 

noncitizens, LGBTQ+ persons, etc.), 

grantmaking, public procurement, 

supply chains, public awareness and 

outreach, research and data collection, 

and any other area the submitter feels is 

important to note? 

6. What tools, approaches, or lessons 

have been applied in other countries or 

in U.S. state, territorial, tribal, and local 

jurisdictions to address the intersection 

between racial, ethnic, or cultural 

discrimination and human trafficking? 

Could these tools, approaches, or 

lessons applied by other authorities be 

helpful to the United States to further 

racial equity? 

7. What are promising practices or 

strategies for how anti-trafficking 

policies and programs can address the 

compounded barriers at the 

intersections of systemic racism and 

other forms of discrimination, such as 

discrimination against persons with 

disabilities, LGBTQ+ persons, and 

women and girls? 

8. Meaningful stakeholder 

engagement includes collective 

problem-solving and decision-making, 

equitable partnerships, and 

collaboration that fosters a sharing of 

power. What processes or approaches 

should SPOG agencies have in place to 

proactively and meaningfully engage 

individuals with lived experience of 

human trafficking and communities that 

are most directly impacted by human 

trafficking? What are tools and best 

practices that SPOG agencies should 

consider to embed racial equity 

practices into community and 

stakeholder engagement?

Rescission of Finding of No Significant 

Impact for the I–5 Rose Quarter 

Improvement Project in Portland, 

Oregon 

AGENCY: Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The FHWA is issuing this 

notice to advise the public that it has 

rescinded the Finding of No Significant 

Impact (FONSI) for the I–5 Rose Quarter 

Improvement Project, a proposed 

highway project on Interstate 5 in 

Portland, Oregon.

Background 

On November 6, 2020, at 85 FR 71136, 

FHWA advised the public that it had 

prepared a Revised Environmental 

Assessment and a FONSI for the I–5 

Rose Quarter Improvement Project. The 

proposed improvements would extend 

existing auxiliary lanes in the 

northbound and southbound directions 

to improve safety and operations on 

Interstate-5 (I–5) between Interstate 84 

and Interstate 405, and make 

improvements to local streets to 

improve multimodal connections over 

I–5. Changes made to the project after 

the FONSI was issued necessitate 

vacating that finding and conducting 

additional analysis to account for 

altered environmental impacts before 

proceeding. A new decision under the 

National Environmental Policy Act and 

any other necessary Federal 

environmental determinations will be 

issued consistent with this additional 

analysis.
