SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 21st Century Corridor Major Investment 
and Environmental Impact Study (MIS/EIS) was a joint effort to examine 
future transportation capacity needs in northwestern, western and 
southern Johnson County, Kansas and northwestern Cass County, Missouri. 
In 1995, the Johnson County Commission voted to withdraw its support 
and sponsorship of the 21st Century Corridor MIS/EIS, after which the 
Missouri Highway and Transportation Department (now the Missouri 
Department of Transportation) also withdrew its support and 
sponsorship. Both project sponsors have directed staff to bring closure 
to the study effort.

    The MIS/EIS documentation compiled to date for the proposed 21st 
Century Corridor will become a resource document and will not be 
considered a completed study document. There is agreement that there 
will be future needs for improved north/south and east/west 
transportation movement in the subject corridor. Comments and questions 
concerning this proposed action and the EIS should be directed to the 
FHWA, Johnson County, or the Kansas Department of Transportation at the 
addresses provided.



    Issued on: September 24, 1996.

David R. Geiger,

Division Administrator, Kansas Division, Federal Highway 
Administration.
