Advisory Group comprised of local
interests and representation to provide
feedback and share information
throughout Program development.
The public and agency Scoping
process is continuing with the
publication of this NOI. Publication of
this NOI initiates a 30-day Scoping
period during which time the public,
Tribal governments and other Federal,
State, and local agencies are requested
to review and comment on any element
of the Cape Cod Bridges Program,
including the Purpose and Need for the
proposed action; the Alternatives
Retained for Detailed Study; and
identification of any potentially
significant adverse environmental
impacts to be evaluated in the EIS.
To ensure that the full range of issues
related to the Cape Cod Bridges Program
is addressed, and all significant issues
are identified, comments and
suggestions are invited from all
interested parties during Scoping. The
FHWA will hold at least one public
Scoping meeting upon publication of
this NOI as part of the Scoping process
for the EIS. Advanced notice of the date,
time and location of the public Scoping
meeting will be provided to the public
through the Program website, public
notices, and press releases. Such
comments or questions concerning this
Notice and/or the scope of the EIS,
including the Purpose and Need,
Alternatives Retained for Detailed
Study, and impacts to be evaluated, may
be submitted via the Program website or
in writing to FHWA or MassDOT at the
addresses provided above. Public input
received during the Scoping process
will be considered in the development
of the DEIS. Once complete, the DEIS
will be available for agency review and
comment prior to the DEIS Public
Hearing and for public review at the
DEIS Public Hearing. Advanced notice
of the date, time and location of the
Public Hearing will be provided to the
public through the Program website,
public notices, and press releases. All
substantive public comments on the
DEIS will be addressed in the Final EIS
(FEIS).
The FHWA intends to issue a single
document that consists of the FEIS and
ROD pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 304a(b) [and
23 U.S.C. 139(n)(2)] unless FHWA
determines that statutory criteria or
practicability considerations preclude
issuance of such a combined document.
