terminal in Wilmette, Illinois. On July
26, 2012, FTA in cooperation with CTA
published a supplemental NOI in the
Federal Register (77 FR 43903) to
inform interested parties that the EIS
would no longer be a Tier 1 EIS as
originally proposed and instead would
be a standard project-level EIS. Since
that time, FTA and CTA have decided
to pursue a more tailored approach of
environmental review for each project of
independent utility within the RPM
corridor. FTA and CTA anticipate that
environmental assessments, leading to
Findings of No Significant Impact
(FONSI), and categorical exclusions
would be the appropriate classes of
action under the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for
these projects. Therefore, the FTA has
decided to rescind the NOI for the EIS.
Comments and questions concerning
the proposed actions should be directed
to FTA at the address provided above.
