design; describes the environmental
impacts of the proposed project and
proposed mitigation; and addresses
comments received on the Draft
Supplemental Environmental Impact
Statement/Draft Programmatic Section
4(f) Evaluation issued on November 26,
2018.
The Preferred Alternative is identified
as LPOE Alternative C and Bridge
Alternative 2 (bridge replacement with
a steel plate girder bridge with six spans
and five piers, west of the existing
bridge) from the Draft Supplemental
Environmental Impact Statement.
The new LPOE would consist of a
main administration building and
support building with parking,
circulation and processing areas. The
new LPOE would be designed in
accordance with the requirements and
criteria of the GSA and CBP to provide
facilities adequate for fulfilling the
agencies’ respective missions. Portions
of Mill Street and Main Street adjacent
to the LPOE may be reconstructed or reprofiled to provide smooth ingress and
egress to the LPOE. The Proposed
Action includes the demolition of the
existing LPOE.
The new International Bridge would
be designed in accordance with
MaineDOT standards with a design life
of at least 75 years. The Proposed
Action includes the demolition of the
existing International Bridge.
