planning and transportation agencies
that support the focus to further study
new BRT service for the North and West
Shores.
Early scoping is an optional early step
in the NEPA process, which begins
when FTA issues a notice of intent to
prepare an environmental impact
statement (EIS). Early scoping is
intended to generate public and agency
review and comments on the scope of a
planning effort within a defined
transportation corridor, the project’s
purpose and need, potential
alternatives, study area, potential social,
economic, and environmental impacts,
and prior studies before formally
preparing an EIS. Early scoping can
ensure that the public and interested
agencies are given the opportunity to
review and provide comments on the
results of planning activities that can
then be used to inform the NEPA
process. Early scoping is intended to
identify the most reasonable alternatives
to undergo NEPA environmental review.
Please see the Project’s website
(https://new.mta.info/northshoreeis) for
more information on the background to
the Project, the Purpose and Need for
the Project, the Project study area,
potential impacts, and potential
alternatives.

Maritime Administration,

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:

The Maritime Administration
(MARAD) announces the extension of
the Voluntary Intermodal Sealift
Agreement (VISA) until October 1, 2024,
pursuant to section 708 of the Defense

The purpose of the VISA is to make
intermodal shipping services/systems,
including ships, ships’ space,
intermodal facilities and equipment,
and related management services,
available to the Department of Defense
as required to support the emergency
deployment and sustainment of U.S.
Armed Forces. This is to be
accomplished through cooperation
among the maritime industry, the

Pursuant
50 U.S.C. 4558(f)(2), the VISA may be
extended for an additional period of 5
years provided (a) the Maritime
Administrator (Administrator) certifies
by publication in the Federal Register
that the VISA is necessary for the
national defense or preparedness
programs and (b) the Attorney General
(after consultation with the Chairman of
the Federal Trade Commission (FTC))
finds that such purpose may not
reasonably be achieved through a
voluntary agreement or plan of action
having less anticompetitive effects or
without any voluntary agreement.
By this notice, the Administrator
determines that conditions exist which
may pose a direct threat to the national
defense of the United States or its
preparedness programs and certifies that
the VISA, a standby agreement for
utilization of intermodal shipping
services/systems, is necessary for the
national defense or preparedness
programs. The Attorney General, after
consultation with the Chairman of the
FTC, found the national defense or
preparedness programs may not
reasonably be achieved through a
voluntary agreement or plan of action
having less anticompetitive effects or
without any voluntary agreement.
Publication of these findings in this
notice satisfies the publication
requirements of 50 U.S.C. 4558(f).
Accordingly, the VISA, as published in
the Federal Register on October 29,
2014 (79 FR 64462), is extended until
October 1, 2024. Current VISA
participants are therefore not required to
submit a new VISA application
pursuant to this extension.
Copies of the VISA are available to the
public upon request.
