FONSI for Rodanthe Bridge Project, Phase IIb


The Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS) has prepared this Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the purpose of formally adopting the Revised Environmental Assessment and Section 4(f) Evaluation (EA) entitled "NC-12 Rodanthe Breach Long-Term Improvements Bonner Bridge Replacement Project Phase IIb" prepared by the United States Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) and issued May 13, 2016, and their subsequent record of decision (ROD) dated December 19, 2016.

Because construction will take place within the Cape Hatteras National Seashore (Seashore) the NPS must issue: 1) a Special Use Permit allowing construction activity to occur on the 150 feet of bridge over the sound which it owns in fee, and 2) a Federal Highway Easement Deed to NCDOT and FHWA for the same area.

This FONSI has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of NEPA, as amended, its implementing regulations (40 CFR 1500-1508), the Department of the Interior NEPA regulations (43 CFR 46), and NPS Director's Order 12, Conservation Planning, Environmental Impact Analysis and Decision-Making and accompanying handbook.
