DETERMINING THE FRESHNESS OF NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT DOCUMENTATION

The interdisciplinary team (IDT), National Capital Area and park staff, conducted internal scoping to review the proposed project. After careful review of the 2011 Environmental Assessment, the team concurs that the previous document adequately describes and analyzes the impacts for proposed construction Section 3 of the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail (ART) through Anacostia Park. There is no change to project scope, the description of impacts (context, intensity and duration) remain as described in the 2011 Environmental Assessment, and site conditions have not changed since preparation of the environmental assessment. No additional public involvement is required. Because neither the original EA, nor this evaluation, resulted in any major adverse effects to NPS resources and values, there would be no impairment to National Park System resources and values from implementation of this project.
