Environmental Impact Statement: Howell, Shannon, and Carter 
Counties, MO

AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of intent.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The FHWA is issuing this notice to advise the public that an 
environmental impact statement will be prepared for a proposed project 
in Howell, Shannon, and Carter Counties, Missouri.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Mr. Donald Neumann, Federal Highway Administration, P.O. Box 1787, 
Jefferson City, MO 65102, Telephone Number 314-636-7104; or Mr. Bob 
Sfreddo, Design Engineer, Missouri Highway and Transportation 
Department, P.O. Box 270, Jefferson City, MO 65102, Telephone Number 
314-751-2876.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FHWA, in cooperation with the Missouri 
Highway and Transportation Department (MHTD), will prepare an 
environmental impact statement (EIS) for a location study along Route 
60 in Howell, Shannon, and Carter Counties, Missouri.
    1. The proposed location study begins at Route U east of Willow 
Springs, in Howell County, and continues approximately 88.5 kilometers 
(55 miles) to a point approximately 2.4 kilometers (1.5 miles) west of 
Van Buren, in Carter County. Improvements are considered necessary to 
improve safety, to improve access in the three-county region, and to 
increase capacity.
    2. Alternatives under consideration include improving the existing 
highway, widening the existing highway, and constructing a new four-
lane highway. A ``no build'' option, as well as mass transit and 
transportation system management options also are being considered.
    3. To date, preliminary information has been issued to local 
officials and other interested parties. The scoping process will be 
initiated with Federal, State, and local agencies. Formal agency and 
public scoping meetings will be held in about June of 1994. A public 
hearing will likely be held in the fall of 1995. Public notice will be 
given in advance of the date and time of each meeting. The draft EIS 
will be available prior to the public hearing for public review and 
comment. To ensure that the full range of issues related to this 
proposed action are addressed and all significant issues identified, 
comments and suggestions are invited from all interested parties. Any 
comments or questions concerning this proposed action and the EIS 
should be directed to the FHWA or the Missouri Highway and 
Transportation Department at the addresses provided above.

    Issued on May 6, 1994.
Donald Neumann,
Program Review Engineer, Jefferson City.
