ACTION: Notice to rescind a notice of 

intent to prepare an environmental 

impact statement. 

SUMMARY: The FHWA, in cooperation 

with the Ohio Department of 

Transportation (ODOT), is issuing this 

Notice to advise the public that we are 

rescinding the July 20, 2006 Notice of 

Intent (NOI) to Prepare an 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

for the I–71/I–75 Brent Spence Bridge 

corridor improvements project, located 

in Hamilton County, Ohio and Kenton 

County, Kentucky. We are rescinding 

the NOI because the project was down 

scoped to an Environmental Assessment 

(EA) in 2010 and a Finding of No 

Significant Impact (FONSI) was issued 

in 2012.

Background 

The FHWA, in cooperation with the 

ODOT, previously intended to prepare 

an EIS for proposed improvements to 

I–71/I–75 and connecting routes in the 

vicinity of the existing Brent Spence 

Bridge Ohio River crossing and the 

Cities of Cincinnati, OH and Covington, 

KY. The NOI, which was published in 

the Federal Register on July 20, 2006 

(71 FR 41310), indicated that the 

purpose and need of the project was to 

improve traffic flow and level of service, 

improve safety, correct geometric 

deficiencies, and maintain links in key 

mobility, trade, and national defense 

transportation corridors. 

As stated in the 2006 NOI, 

alternatives under consideration 

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

rehabilitation/upgrading of the existing 

infrastructure combined with 

construction of new facilities on new 

alignment; (3) replacement 

infrastructure on new alignment; and, 

(4) other alternatives that may be 

developed during the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) 

process. During the NEPA process, the 

conceptual alternatives were narrowed 

to feasible alternatives that essentially 

stayed on the I–71/75 mainline, 

reducing the potential impacts from the 

project. Due to this, ODOT asked that 

the project be down scoped to an EA on 

December 11, 2009, which FHWA 

agreed to on March 11, 2010. An EA was 

prepared and a FONSI was approved on 

August 9, 2012. However, the NOI was 

not rescinded at that time. FHWA is 

rescinding the NOI at this time. Should 

a need to prepare an EIS arise in the 

future, then another NOI would be 

issued at that time.
