SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective
July 1, 2007, FHWA assigned, and
Caltrans assumed, environmental
responsibilities for this project pursuant
to 23 U.S.C. 327. Notice is hereby given
that Caltrans has rescinded the FONSI
for the following highway project in the
State of California: Richardson Grove
Operational Improvement Project.
On May 18, 2010, Caltrans advised
the public that it had prepared an
Environmental Assessment (EA) and a
Finding of No Significant Impact
(FONSI) for the Richardson Grove
Operational Improvement Project to
provide Surface Transportation
Assistance Act (STAA) access on US
Route 101, in compliance with the
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA). Project limit is from 1.1 mile
north of the Mendocino County line to
2.2 miles north of the Mendocino
County line and would include minor
curve realignments, drainage
improvements, shoulder widening, cuts
and fills, and a retaining wall. After
issuing a Supplement to the EA,
Caltrans revalidated the FONSI on
January 24, 2014. Caltrans withdrew the
FONSI on November 17, 2014, due to
issuance of the Writ of Mandate by the
Humboldt County Superior Court, on
October 21, 2014, in the CEQA litigation
at Case No. CV110002, directing
Caltrans to set aside approval of the
project, and requiring additional
environmental analysis on the project. A
new NEPA finding and any other
necessary Federal environmental
determinations will be issued consistent
with this additional analysis.
Issued on: November 19, 2014.
