BILLING CODE 4910–13–M 

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Highway Administration 

Environmental Impact Statement; 

Manatee and Hillsborough Counties, 

FL 

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 (EIS) 

will be prepared for a proposed highway 

project in Manatee and Hillsborough 

Counties, Florida. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. 

Linda Anderson, Environmental 

Specialist, Federal Highway 

Administration, 545 John Knox Road, 

Tallahassee, Florida 32301, Telephone: 

(850) 942–9650 extension 3053. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

FHWA, in cooperation with the Florida 

Department of Transportation (FDOT), 

will prepare an EIS for a proposal to 

improve access between Port Manatee 

and Interstate 75 (I–75) in Manatee and 

Hillsborough Counties. The study area 

for the proposed project generally 

extends from south of I–275 to south of 

State Road 674 and from the Tampa Bay 

coast line to east of I–75, in northern 

Manatee County or southern 

Hillsborough County. The study 

corridor is approximately 7 miles long. 

An enhanced roadway connection from 

I–75 to Port Manatee would serve as a 

crucial freight route, improve the overall 

efficiency of the existing highway 

network and relieve congestion at the 

gateway to the port. 

Alternatives under consideration 

include: (1) Taking no action; (2) 

upgrades to existing roadways; and (3) 

alternatives on a new east-west 

alignment. A potential new roadway 

alignment would provide access to Port 

Manatee at U.S. 41 and connect to a new 

or modified interchange with I–75. 

Coordination with appropriate 

Federal, State, and local agencies, and 

with private organizations and citizens 

who have expressed interest in this 

proposal has been undertaken and will 

continue. A series of public meetings 

and a public hearing will be held in 

Manatee County between September 

2008 and December 2010. Public notice 

will be given of the time and place of 

the meetings and hearing. Prior to the 

public hearing, the Draft EIS will be 

made available for public and agency 

review and comment. There are no 

plans to hold a formal scoping meeting 

after this notice of intent to prepare an 

EIS. The information gained through 

agency meetings, the Florida Efficient 

Transportation Decision Making 

(ETDM) process, and public 

involvement will be used for scoping. 

As part of the scoping process, a series 

of meetings were held between 

September 23–30, 2008 to provide 

affected government agencies, interested 

groups, and the public with an 

opportunity to review and comment on 

the draft purpose and need statement 

developed for the project. A subsequent 

series of meetings is anticipated for 

summer 2009 to provide agencies and 

the public an opportunity for input into 

the alternatives analysis and 

development. The ETDM process is 

approved by FHWA as meeting the 

streamlining requirements of Section 

6002 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, 

Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A 

Legacy for Users (SAFETEA–LU). 

To ensure that the full range of issues 

related to the proposed action is 

addressed and all significant issues 

identified, comments and suggestions 

are invited from all interested parties. 

Comments or questions concerning this 

proposed action and the EIS should be 

directed to the FHWA at the address 

provided above.
