SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

FHWA, in cooperation with the 

Tennessee Department of 

Transportation, will prepare an 

environmental impact statement (EIS) 

on a proposal to provide an extension to

surrounding transportation network. 

The proposed project is anticipated to 

provide a multi-lane facility with the 

number of lanes and access control to be 

determined depending on forecasted 

traffic volumes. The EIS will address 

environmental, social, and economic 

impacts associated with the 

development of the proposed action. 

Letters describing the proposed action 

and soliciting comments will be 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. Public meetings will be 

held in the vicinity of the project 

throughout the development of the EIS. 

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. 

To ensure that the full range of issues 

related to this proposed action are
