ACTION: Notice of intent.






SUMMARY: The FHWA is issuing this notice to advice the public that an 
environmental impact statement will be prepared for a proposed Phase 
III, IV, and V extension of the Harry S. Truman Parkway, Savannah, 
Georgia.



FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Mr. Marvin Woodward, Transportation Manager, Federal Highway 
Administration, Suite 300, 1720 Peachtree Road, N.W., Atlanta, Georgia

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FHWA, in cooperation with the Georgia 
Department of Transportation (GDOT), will prepare an Environmental 
Impact Statement (EIS) on a proposal to construct a 4 lane limited 
access highway on new location from the terminus of the existing Phase 
I segment at Derenne Street to the Abercorn Street extension. The 
project length is approximately 10.3 km. The proposed project is 
necessary to provide additional capacity to mitigate congestion for 
north-south traffic on the east side of Savannah.
    Alternatives under consideration include: (1) The ``no-build'', and 
(2) A controlled access highway on new location.
    Letters describing the proposed action and soliciting comments will 
be sent to appropriate Federal, State, and local agencies. A public 
hearing will be held and a public notice will be given of the time and 
place of the hearing.

    To ensure that the full range of issues related to this proposed 
project are addressed and all significant issues identified, comments 
and suggestions are invited from all interested parties. Comments or 
questions concerning this proposed action should be directed to the 
FHWA at the address provided above.
