Background
This planning study is to determine the feasibility of an Eastern
Beltline of Bowling Green, Kentucky. The Bowling Green Urban
Transportation Study has identified both and Eastern and Northern
Beltline as a need since 1972. The Eastern Beltline is to be located
east of I-65 and is to connect US 231 (Scottsville Road) with
I-65. This planning study will consider how the Beltline projects
should be coordinated with a proposed Interstate 66 (I-66)
project and if segments of one project can be incorporated into the
other project.
During the development of this planning study, comments will be
solicited from appropriate Federal, state, and local agencies, as well
as other interested persons and the general public, in accordance with
requirements set forth in the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
of 1969 and subsequent Federal regulations and guidelines developed by
the Executive Office of the President's Council on Environmental
Quality and the United States Department of Transportation for the
implementation of the NEPA process.
This planning study will include a scoping process for the early
identification of potential alternatives for, and environmental issues
and impacts related to, the proposed project. At this time, the level
of environmental documentation that will ultimately be prepared is not
known. However, if an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is prepared
for the proposed project in the future, the information gained through
the scoping process in this planning study may be used as input to the
scoping process for the development of that EIS. If an EIS is prepared
in the future, written comments on the scope of alternatives and
impacts will still be considered at that time, after the filing of the
Notice of Intent (NOI).
