Environmental Impact Statement:

Allegheny and Washington Counties,

AGENCY: Federal Highway

Administration (FHWA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of Intent.

SUMMARY: The FHWA is issuing this

notice to advise the public that an

Environmental Impact Statement will be

prepared for proposed transportation

improvements between I–79 and the

Mon/Fayette Toll Expressway, known

locally as a Southern Beltway

Transportation Project, in Washington

County, Pennsylvania. This notice

supersedes the Notice of Intent

published in the Federal Register,

Volume 58, Number 154, Page 43005, on

August 12, 1993, for the Southern

Beltway.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

FHWA, in cooperation with the

Pennsylvania Department of

Transportation and the Pennsylvania

Turnpike Commission will prepare an

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)

on a proposal for a limited access toll

highway in Washington County, south

of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The

proposed highway would extend from

the Interstate south of the Allegheny

County and Washington County line,

easterly to the Mon/Fayette Expressway,

about 21 kilometers (13 miles) south of

Pittsburgh. The study corridor is about

19 kilometers (12 miles) long and about

2.5 kilometers (1.5 miles) wide.

The proposed highway is considered

necessary to improve the movement of

people and goods from the Mon Valley

to Interstate 79 in the area south of

Pittsburgh. Preliminary studies and

public and agency input have indicated

that the project needs cannot be met by

Transportation System Management

(TSM) activities, upgrading existing

roadways or mass transit improvements.

Alternatives now under consideration

are various alignments for a new tolled

expressway and taking no action.

Letters describing the proposed action

and soliciting comments have been sent

to appropriate Federal, State, and Local

agencies and to private organizations

and citizens who have previously

expressed or are known to have interest

in this proposal. A series of public

meetings will be held in the project area

during the development of the project.

In addition, a public hearing will be

held. Public notice will be given of the

time and place of the meetings and

hearing. The Draft EIS will be available

for public and agency review and

comment prior to the public hearing. A

Scoping Meeting was held on August 18

and 19, 1993, in Washington,

Pennsylvania. Federal, state, regional,

county, and municipal agencies

attended and participated.

To insure that the full range of issues

related to this proposed action are

addressed and all significant issues

identified, comments and suggestions

are invited from all interest parties.

Comments or questions concerning this

proposed action and the EIS should be

directed to the FHWA at the address

provided above.
