Notice of Intent.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The General Services
Administration (GSA) announces its
intent to prepare an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) under the
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) of 1969 to assess the potential
impacts of the construction of a New
Border Station Facility in Madawaska,
Maine (the ‘‘Proposed Action’’). At the
request of Customs and Border
Protection (CBP), the GSA is proposing
to construct a new border station facility
which meets their needs, and the design
requirements of the GSA.
The existing facilities are undersized
and obsolete, and consequently
incapable of providing the level of
security now required. The Proposed
Action has been defined and will likely
include: (a) identification of land
requirements, including acquisition of
adjoining land; (b) demolition of
existing government structures at the
border station; (c) construction of a
main administration building and
ancillary support buildings; and (d)
consequent potential alterations to
secondary roads.
Alternatives to be studied will
identify alternative locations for the
components of the border station
including the main administration and
ancillary support buildings, the
associated roadway network and
parking. A No Action alternative will
also be studied that will evaluate the
consequences of not constructing the
new border station facility. This
alternative is included to provide a basis
for comparison to the action alternatives
described above as required by NEPA
regulations (40 CFR 1002.14(d)).
GSA invites individuals,
organizations and agencies to submit
comments concerning the scope of the
EIS. The public scoping period starts
with the publication of this notice in the
PO 00000
Frm 00031
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Federal Register and will continue for
forty five (45) days from the date of this
notice. GSA will consider all comments
received or postmarked by that date in
defining the scope of the EIS. GSA
expects to issue a Draft EIS by June 2006
at which time its availability will be
announced in the Federal Register and
local media. A public comment period
will commence upon publication of the
Notice of Availability. The GSA will
consider and respond to comments
received on the Draft EIS in preparing
the Final EIS.
ADDRESSES: Written comments or
suggestions concerning the scope of the
EIS should be sent to David M.
Drevinsky P.E., PMP, Regional
Environmental Quality Advocate
(REQA), U.S. General Services
Administration, 10 Causeway Street,
Room 975, Boston, MA 02222; Fax (617)
565–5967.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
David M. Drevinsky by phone at (617)
565–6596 or by email at
david.drevinsky@gsa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Public
Scoping Meeting:
A public scoping meeting will
provide the public with an opportunity
to present comments, ask questions, and
discuss concerns regarding the scope of
the EIS for the Proposed Action with
GSA representatives. GSA will hold a
public scoping meeting at the Middle /
High School Library located on 135
Seventh Avenue in Madawaska on
January 10, 2006 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
In case of inclement weather, this public
scoping meeting will be held on January
11, 2006 at the same location and with
the same time.
