318 Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 2 / Friday, January 3, 2025 / Notices 

to the unreasonable risk determination 

for formaldehyde. 

Consistent with the statutory 

requirements of TSCA section 6(a), EPA 

will propose risk management 

regulatory actions to the extent 

necessary so that formaldehyde no 

longer presents an unreasonable risk 

under the conditions of use. The Agency 

expects to focus its risk management 

action on the TSCA conditions of use 

that significantly contribute to the 

unreasonable risk. However, it should 

be noted that, under TSCA section 6(a), 

EPA is not limited to regulating the 

specific activities found to contribute 

significantly to unreasonable risk and 

may select from among a suite of risk 

management approaches based on 

requirements in TSCA section 6(a) 

related to manufacture (including 

import), processing, distribution in 

commerce, commercial use, and 

disposal as part of its regulatory options 

to address the unreasonable risk. As a 

general example, EPA may regulate 

upstream activities (e.g., processing, 

distribution in commerce) to address 

downstream activities (e.g., consumer 

uses) contributing significantly to 

unreasonable risk, even if the upstream 

activities do not contribute significantly 

to the unreasonable risk.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On November 6, 2021, Congress 

passed the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law 

(BIL), also known as the Infrastructure 

Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). On 

November 15, 2021, the President 

signed Executive Order (E.O.) 14052 

‘‘Implementation of the Infrastructure 

Investment and Jobs Act.’’ On December 

13, 2021, the President signed E.O. 

14508 ‘‘Transforming Federal Customer 

Experience and Service Delivery to 

Rebuild Trust in Government.’’ On 

February 25, 2022, President Biden and 

the GSA announced the list of major 

LPOE projects funded by the BIL. This 

included the Bridge of the Americas 

(BOTA) LPOE in El Paso, Texas. 

The Environmental Impact Statement 

(EIS) has been prepared in accordance 

with section 102 of the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 

1969 (42 United States Code [U.S.C.] 

4321 to 4370d), as implemented by the 

regulations promulgated by the Council 

on Environmental Quality (CEQ) (40 

Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] 

1500–1508). The principal objectives of 

NEPA are to ensure the careful 

consideration of environmental aspects 

of proposed actions in federal decisionmaking processes and to make 

environmental information available to 

decision makers and the public before 

decisions are made and actions are 

taken. 

Additionally, this EIS has been 

prepared in accordance with GSA NEPA 

guidelines (GSA Order ADM 1095.1F 

and the Public Buildings Service [PBS] 

NEPA Desk Guide, both dated October 

1999) and serves as a mechanism for 

compliance with the National Historic 

Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966 (as 

amended) and other relevant laws and/ 

or regulations. 

Purpose and Need for Action 

The purpose of the proposed action is 

for the GSA to support the U.S. Customs 

and Border Protection (CBP) mission by 

bringing the BOTA LPOE infrastructure 

in line with current CBP land port 

design standards (i.e., CBP Land Port of 

Entry Design Standard) and operational 

requirements while addressing existing 

deficiencies identified with the ongoing 

port operations. In order to bring the 

BOTA LPOE in line with CBP’s design 

standards and operational requirements, 

action is needed to satisfy the following 

overriding needs: 

• Improve the capacity and 

functionality of the LPOE to meet future 

public demand, while maintaining the 

capability to meet border security 

initiatives. 

• Ensure the safety and security for 

the employees and the travelling public. 

Proposed Action and Alternatives 

Development 

As part of project planning, the GSA 

developed two (2) action alternatives as 

potential means of implementing the 

proposed action. The no action 

alternative has also been considered in 

the EIS. Both action alternatives include 

the phased razing of all existing 

buildings/structures and infrastructure 

within the existing LPOE boundaries 

and construction of new buildings/ 

structures and supporting infrastructure. 

Both action alternatives also include 

minimal land acquisition in areas 

immediately adjacent to the port. 

Summary of Potential Impacts 

The EIS has identified, describes, and 

analyzes the potential effects of the 

action alternatives developed to 

implement the proposed action and the 

no action alternative. This includes 

direct, indirect, and cumulative effects. 

GSA identified the following resources/ 

issues for analysis of both beneficial and 

adverse potential impacts and the 

results are summarized in the Final EIS: 

• Hazardous Materials, Waste, and/or 

Site Contamination 

• Socioeconomics (including 

Environmental Justice) 

• Public Services, Infrastructure, and 

Utilities 

• Surface Waters, Drainage, and 

Floodplains 

• Land Use and Zoning (including 

Visual and Aesthetics) 

• Traffic (Vehicular and Pedestrian), 

Transportation, and Parking 

• Air Quality (including Greenhouse 

Gas Emissions) 

• Noise and Vibration 

• Cultural and Historic Resources 

The EIS documents measures that 

could potentially avoid, minimize, or 

mitigate any identified adverse impacts.
