Foothills Parkway Section 8D Scoping Newsletter-Fall 2023
The National Park Service (NPS), in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), is preparing an Environmental Assessment (EA) for proposed construction of Foothills Parkway Section 8D and is seeking public input beginning October 19 through November 18.

The park is conducting this public scoping in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) to determine the extent and nature of issues and alternatives that should be considered during the environmental review process.
