alternative was evaluated for impacts to
cultural and natural resources,
socioeconomic concerns, visual and
scenic resources, hazardous materials,
existing land use, and local/regional
transportation needs.
The Final EIS (FEIS) identified a
Preferred Alternative, which was a
refinement of DEIS Alternative E (listed
as #5 above). This included adding
capacity to the Route 2A Bridge by
adding a second, parallel, 2-lane bridge
crossing the Thames River; a bypass of
Route 2A; widening Route 2 in Preston;
and upgrading Route 2 in North
Stonington. A Record of Decision (ROD)
was not finalized and a ROD was not
published in the Federal Register.
The decision to rescind the NOI is
based on the age of the studies
conducted in support of the
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
and the need to re-assess transportation
demand within the corridor. Following
completion of a new corridor study,
FHWA and CTDOT will initiate new
NEPA studies, as appropriate, to assess
the potential environmental impacts of
future actions that involve the study
area. Any future project proposed
within this corridor will comply with
environmental review requirements of
the National Environmental Policy Act
((NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.)),
FHWA environmental regulations (23
CFR part 771), and related authorities
prior to issuance of a ROD or other
NEPA decision, as appropriate.
Comments and questions concerning
this action should be directed to FHWA
at the address provided above.
