Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 64 / Thursday, April 3, 1997 / Notices 15897

on February 12, 1997. The FEIS

examined the short and long term

impacts on the natural and built

environments of developing and

operating a consolidated INS facility at

9300–9499 NW 41st Street, Miami, FL

33172. The FEIS also addresses issues

that were raised at the public meeting

and issues that were expressed in

writing during the comment period that

closed in March 10, 1997. GSA

continued to accept and address

comments received until close of

business on March 18. Issues addressed

included impacts to public facilities &

infrastructure, parking, traffic, property

values, the community, and

neighborhood & economic issues. The

FEIS also examined and considered

measures to mitigate unavoidable

adverse impacts of the proposed action.

GSA’s proposed action is to lease a

newly constructed building for the INS

consolidation on the vacant parcel of

land consisting of approximately 7.31

acres at 9300–9499 NW 41st Street,

Miami, FL 33172. The proposed facility

would consist of an office building

containing a total occupiable area of

approximately 214,600 square feet,

along with supporting site

improvements and 885 parking spaces.

The subject site fronts for 390 feet along

NW 41st Street and spans to the back to

Dressels Canal (approximately 1150 feet

south from 41st Street at the deepest

point). The proposed facility would

accommodate the INS by consolidating

the District Office, the Asylum Office,

and the Executive Office of Immigration

Review (EOIR). The Krome Detention

Center is a high-security containment

facility located in Western Dade county

and its location, function, and purpose

will be unchanged as a result of the

proposed action.

GSA has identified and screened from

consideration, over 20 alternatives to

the proposed action since 1993. GSA

has identified the following alternatives

to be examined in the EIS:

• ‘‘No Action,’’ that is, take no action

and continue to house the INS at its

current locations.

• Lease construction of a

consolidated facility of 214,600

occupiable square feet (osf) at the

proposed site at 9300–9499 NW 41st

Street, Miami, Florida 33172. This is the

GSA preferred alternative.

A final 30-day comment period will

close on April 28, 1997. Comments on

the FEIS should be provided in writing

to the address below by close of

business on Monday, April 28, 1997.

Copies of the FEIS were distributed on

Wednesday, March 19. A copy of the

FEIS and one copy of all of the public

comments are available for inspection at

the Metro-Dade Public Library Fairlawn

Branch located at 6869 SW 8th Street,
