Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 213 / Monday, November 4, 2019 / Notices
the NOI to prepare an LSSEIS for
proposed improvements to the I–55
interchange at E.H. Crump Boulevard in
the City of Memphis, Shelby County,
Tennessee. The Selected Alternative
consists of replacing the existing
cloverleaf interchange with a new
interchange configuration that will
provide through lanes for mainline I–55
traffic, eliminating the need for
interstate traffic to use single-lane, low
speed ramps to continue on I–55. A new
multi-lane roundabout interchange will
be constructed, replacing the existing
cloverleaf interchange, providing
improved access to and from I–55 and
existing local roadways.
The Final Environmental Impact
Statement (FEIS) was approved on June
28, 2011. On January 25, 2012, FHWA
issued a Record of Decision (ROD)
identifying the Selected Alternative and
the reasons for its selection. Following
the issuance of the ROD, TDOT
determined that a total closure of the I–
55 Bridge over the Mississippi River
(Memphis-Arkansas Bridge) for up to 9
months may be necessary. A
Reevaluation of the FEIS was initiated
to further explore the proposed
construction phasing of the project.
Through this process, TDOT, in
coordination with FHWA, determined
that the proposed construction phasing
could result in potentially significant
impacts not previously assessed and
disclosed in the EIS. Therefore, TDOT
concluded the Reevaluation with the
determination that a LSSEIS should be
undertaken. The NOI to develop the
LSSEIS was published on August 31,
2015.
Since the publication of the NOI,
TDOT has taken several major steps to
advance the project towards
construction including the decision to
not pursue the total closure of the I–55
Bridge for up to 9 months during
construction of the project. Because the
previously proposed option for a total
closure of the I–55 Bridge for up to 9
months was the primary reason for
developing a LSSEIS, TDOT, in
coordination with FHWA has
determined that an LSSEIS is no longer
warranted and that a Reevaluation of the
FEIS will now be prepared. Therefore,
the August 31, 2015 NOI is being
rescinded.
The Reevaluation will fully evaluate
impacts to humans and to the natural
environment and will evaluate changes
to the proposed project since the
issuance of the ROD.
Comments and questions concerning
the proposed action should be directed
to the FHWA contact person at the
address provided above.
