Notice of Intent to Prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).
Summary
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA), in cooperation with the City and County of Honolulu Department of Transportation Services (DTS), intends to prepare an environmental impact statement (EIS) in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for proposed transportation improvements in the Primary Transportation Corridor of the City and County of Honolulu. The transportation improvements are being defined in conjunction with a Major Investment Study (MIS), which will include the NEPA scoping process and the selection of alternatives to be addressed in the EIS. The EIS will evaluate a no-build condition, transportation system management, and bus rapid transit and light rail transit options, plus any additional alternatives that emerge from the scoping process. Scoping will be accomplished through correspondence and discussions with interested persons, organizations, and federal, State and local agencies, and through a public meeting.
