GENERAL SERVICES
ADMINISTRATION
Notice of Intent to Prepare an
Environmental Impact Statement for
Construction of a New Land Port of
Entry, International Falls, Koochiching
County, Minnesota
Public Buildings Service, GSA.
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 analyze the potential
impacts of the construction of a new
Land Port of Entry (LPOE) facility in
International Falls, Minnesota (the
‘‘Proposed Action’’). At the request of
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
(CBP), the GSA is proposing to construct
a new LPOE that meets U.S. Department
of Homeland Security needs and the
design requirements of the GSA. The
existing LPOE, which was built in 1993,
no longer meets the space and
operational requirements of CBP or the
Food and Drug Administration, a new
tenant.
DATES: Effective Date: August 27, 2009.
ADDRESSES: Written comments or
suggestions concerning the scope of the
EIS should be sent to Glenn H. Wittman,
Regional Environmental Quality
Advisor, GSA Public Buildings Service,
Design & Construction Division, 230 S.
Dearborn St., DCD–5PM, Chicago,
Illinois 60604.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
Glenn H. Wittman by phone at (312)
353–6871, or by email at
glenn.wittman@gsa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Proposed Action has been defined and
will include: (a) identification of land
requirements, including acquisition of
adjoining or nearby land; (b)
construction of a main administration
building, vehicle and cargo inspection
areas, and ancillary support buildings;
and (c) consequent potential alterations
to secondary roads.
Alternatives to be identified and
studied will include alternative
locations for the components of the
LPOE including the buildings and
inspection areas, the associated roadway
PO 00000
Frm 00040
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

network, and traffic. A No-Action
alternative will be studied that will
evaluate the consequences of not
constructing the new facility. This
alternative is included to provide a basis
for comparison to the action alternatives
described above as required by NEPA
regulations [40 CFR 1502.14(d)].
The GSA invites individuals,
organizations, and agencies to submit
comments concerning the scope of the
EIS. An informal open house followed
by a formal presentation and public
comment meeting will be held from
2:30—6:00 and 7:00–8:30 PM on
Tuesday, September 15, 2009, at Rainy
River Community College, 1501
Highway 71, International Falls, MN.
The public scoping period starts with
the publication of this notice in the
Federal Register and continues for 45
days from the date of this notice. The
GSA will consider all comments
received or postmarked by that date in
defining the scope of the EIS.
The GSA expects to issue a Draft EIS
in 2009 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.
