Milestone Extension: Environmental Assessment (EA)
Due to issues regarding the sufficiency of the recently-issued FWS "Right-of-way authorization" for the project ( which may not be re-issued due to potential route changes ), the RUS currently is reevaluating the scope and alternatives for the ongoing "Final EA" analysis pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Once this reevaluation is complete, the RUS will establish an alternate completion date for the action on the Dashboard. The agency has set an alternate completion date of 11/15/2021.
