Campus in Southeast, Washington, DC.
Alternative 5 also includes an
additional 750,000 GSF of office and
shared use space together with 775
parking spaces that will be located on
the St. Elizabeths East Campus. The
selection of Alternative 5 contemplates
the use of the East Campus parcel for
the project. However, the ROD does not
authorize any ground disturbing
activities on the East Campus.
Implementation of ground disturbing
activities on the East Campus will be
considered in a separate EIS and, unless
the no-build alternative is selected,
implemented in a separate ROD. In
accordance with the conditions set forth
in the December 16, 2008 ROD, certain
West Campus ground disturbing
activities are authorized prior to
completion of the contemplated East
Campus ROD.
(2) Implement Martin Luther King, Jr.
Avenue Traffic Improvement
Alternative 2, as defined in Volume 2 of
the FEIS. Alternative 2 accommodates
left turning lanes into Gates 1 and 2 of
the West Campus. Selection of this
alternative is based on coordination
with, and is subject to, subsequent final
determinations of the District of
Columbia Department of Transportation
(DDOT). Alternative 2 may be
implemented immediately after
approval by DDOT.
(3) Implement, in cooperation with
the Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA), Interchange Alternative I–2, as
described in Volume II of the Final EIS.
Alternative I–2 provides for the
construction of a new access road for St.
Elizabeths West Campus, from Firth
Sterling Avenue to Malcolm X Avenue
and connecting to the Malcolm X
interchange as outlined in Volume 2 of
the Final EIS. Selection of this
alternative is based on coordination
with FHWA and is subject to its
subsequent final determinations.
The ROD documents the specific
components of GSA’s decision and the
rationale for the decision. This decision
is based on information and analyses
contained in the Draft EIS issued in
September 2007; the Final EIS issued in
November 2008; the comments of
Federal and State agencies, stakeholder
organizations, members of the public,
and elected officials; and other
information in the administrative
record.
