11/15/2018 | The permitting agency, DNR, and MDOT SHA preferred option; Option 5, has reached 30% design. The worst case limit of disturbance has been developed, and the formal NEPA process has begun. Right-of-way needs have been developed, and plats are being developed. Design efforts are underway to move the project to 60% design completion, and coordination with the permitting agencies to obtain the necessary environmental permits and approvals is underway.
The project currently funded for design. It is not funded for construction. |
