Statement
Action: Pursuant to the Council on Environmental Quality
Regulations (40 Code of Federal Regulations 1500-1508) implementing
procedural provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA),
the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) hereby gives notice that
a Final EIS for the construction of a new FB-CT within the City of
Phoenix, Arizona has been prepared and filed with the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The proposed project would
include the construction of a new FB-CT with appropriately 515,010
gross square feet (GSF) of building space and 360 onsite parking
spaces. The preferred site encompasses approximately 4.5 acres and is
located within the city's redevelopment area known as the Government
Mall. The site is bound by Washington Street to the north, 4th Avenue
to the east, Jefferson Street to the south and 6th Avenue to the west.
Under the Proposed Action, 5th and 6th Avenues would be closed to
vehicular traffic.
Alternatives: In addition to the Proposed Action, the DEIS examined
three alternatives including: (1) construction of the FB-CT on the same
site as the Proposed Action with 6th Avenue remaining open to vehicular
traffic; (2) construction of the FB-CT on an alternate site within the
DBA; and (3) no action or continued use of the existing FB-CT and lease
space.
Public Involvement: The Final EIS, prepared by GSA addressing this
action, is on file and may be obtained from: Mr. Alan R. Campbell, U.S.
