The Summit County Citizens Voice reports that the Federal Highway Administration, concerned about compliance with environmental laws, has asked CDOT to rewrite the Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement for the I-70 Mountain Corridor in a more “citizen-friendly” format.
The 2,500-page document would then be re-released toward the end of this year.
“Two weeks ago, the feds came in and said they don’t like the way it’s going with regard to NEPA,” said Penny, referring to the National Environmental Policy Act, an over-riding federal law that outlines how environmental studies are conducted and the rules for public involvement.”
