environmental effects of the proposal,
alternatives to the proposal (including
alternative locations and routes), and
measures to avoid or lessen
environmental impact. The more
specific your comments, the more useful
they may be. Please carefully follow
these instructions to ensure that your
comments are received in time and
properly recorded:
