SUMMARY:
daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES
Background
The Project is located at 880 Front
Street in San Diego, California at the
Edward J. Schwartz Federal Building
and United States Courthouse. The
Project is proposed in order to improve
structural safety for the public traveling
underneath the building and for the
tenants occupying the building above
the Front Street underpass. The existing
building has five stories of federal office
building space spanning above the
roadway and two levels of parking
structure beneath the roadway.

Alternatives Under Consideration
The EA will consider one Action
Alternative and one No Action
Alternative. The Action Alternative
would consist of structural
enhancement improvements to the
portion of the existing Edward J.
Schwartz Federal Building over Front
Street between E and F streets. Existing
columns and beams supporting the
building at the Front Street underpass
would be reinforced with new steel
beams and column support structures
and pre-cast concrete paneling.
Construction would require full and
partial closure of Front Street between
Broadway and F Street. Street closure
options during construction of the
Action Alternative are being considered,
and a comprehensive Traffic Control
Plan will be prepared to address the
street closure.
The No Action Alternative assumes
that structural enhancements to the
existing building would not occur.
Date: October 10, 2018 (Open from
8:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. on October 10th and
closed for remainder of the meeting).
2. Health System and Value Research
(HSVR).
Date: October 18, 2018 (Open from 8
a.m. to 8:30 a.m. on October 18th and

(HCRT).
Date: October 18–19, 2018 (Open from
8 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. on October 18th and
closed for remainder of the meeting).
4. Healthcare Safety and Quality
Improvement Research (HSQR).
Date: October 24–25, 2018 (Open from
8 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. on October 24th and
closed for remainder of the meeting).
5. Healthcare Information Technology
Research (HITR).
Date: October 25–26, 2018 (Open from
8 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. on October 25th and
closed for remainder of the meeting).
Scoping Process
Scoping will be accomplished
through direct mail correspondence to
appropriate federal, state, and local
agencies; surrounding property owners;
and private organizations and citizens
who have previously expressed or are
known to have an interest in the Project.
The primary purpose of the scoping
process is for the public to assist GSA
in determining the scope and content of
the environmental analysis.
