Notice of Availability of a Draft Environmental Impact Statement for a New Federal Courthouse in Hartford, Connecticut

摘要

Pursuant to the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), GSA has prepared a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to analyze the potential impacts from the proposed acquisition of a site in Hartford, CT, and the subsequent design, construction, and operation of a new Federal courthouse. The new courthouse would be owned and managed by GSA and occupied by the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut and related agencies. This notice announces the opportunity for public review and comment on the Draft EIS. The Draft EIS describes the purpose and need for the proposed project, the alternatives considered, the existing environment that could be affected, the potential impacts resulting from each of the alternatives, and proposed best management practices and mitigation measures.
