Intent To Prepare an Environmental Impact Statement for the 
Fresno United States Courthouse, CA

AGENCY: General Services Administration.

ACTION: Notice of intent to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement 
(EIS) for a new United States Courthouse.

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

SUMMARY: The action to be evaluated by this EIS is the construction of 
a new United States Courthouse in Fresno, California. The facility will 
be located on an approximately 4.5 acre site and includes construction 
of 392 subterranean and surface parking spaces.

ALTERNATIVES: The EIS will evaluate four alternative sites. Three of 
the sites are located in the downtown area of the city while the fourth 
is located in north Fresno. In addition, as required by the National 
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), the EIS will also analyze the ``No 
Action'' alternative as a baseline for gauging the impacts of not 
building a new courthouse.

reviewing the Draft EIS and a public meeting that will be held at the 
City of Fresno Council's Chambers, 2600 Fresno Street in Fresno,

DEIS is available for public review at the Fresno County Library, 2420 
Mariposa Street in Fresno, and at GSA's Field Office at the B.F. Sisk 
Federal Building--United [[Page 31478]] States Courthouse, 1130 `O'
