Newsletter for EA to Evaluate Alternatives for Revitalization

A Notice of Intent (NOI) to prepare an Environmental Assessment (EA) will be published in the Federal Register, and will initiate the formal scoping period for this project. This newsletter provides information on the purpose, need, and objectives of the proposed project to revitalize the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial; the scope of the EA, including impact topics to be considered; and the integration of the EA with requirements of section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.

To be most hepful to the planning process, the NPS requests that you provide comments within 30 days of the publication of the NOI. Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment – including your personal identifying information – may be made publicly available at any time. While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.

Topic Questions Instructions:

The NPS has developed some specific questions for your consideration when submitting your comments. Comments are welcome on other topics related to the NPS components of this project. If you choose to respond to the topic questions, please number your response to match the corresponding question.

Topic Questions:

1. Do the purpose, need, and objectives reflect what you think the NPS needs to accomplish with this project? If not, what else do you think needs to be accomplished?

2. What concerns do you have about the potential impacts of the project to revitalize the park? How do you think these concerns could be addressed?
