Download as PDF 9220 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 39 / Monday, March 1, 2010 / Notices Inn Express on July 7, 2009. All public materials presented at the open house were made available in English and Spanish. The purpose of the open house was to present information about the project and to receive input from the public regarding concerns or issues with the existing condition of the Otay Mesa LPOE and the proposed action. The public was also provided the opportunity to comment on the project by means of a form provided with the fact sheet and at the open house, or electronically via the project e-mail address (GSAOtayMesa@parsons.com). Comments were accepted by any of the means described above through August 7, 2009. Twenty-six individuals attended the open house (excluding GSA project and contractor staff—five individuals), with the majority of those attending associated with a federal, state, or local agency. Comments were provided during discussions about the project with GSA and contractor staff. Written comments were provided by three emails and one letter. These communications suggested that there is a high degree of controversy surrounding the underwriting of local infrastructure needs associated with the project. GSA has therefore decided to prepare an EIS per GSA NEPA Desk Guide (1999; Section 7.4): Acquisition of space by Federal construction or lease construction, or expansion or improvement of an existing facility, where one or more of the following applies: * * * The proposed use will substantially increase the number of motor vehicles at the facility; * * * There is evidence of current or potential community controversy about environmental justice or other environmental issues.
