Rehabilitation and Renovation of the Carnegie Library at Mount Vernon Square REHABILITATION AND RENOVATION OF THE CARNEGIE LIBRARY AT MOUNT VERNON SQUARE ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Prepared by: National Capital Planning Commission In Cooperation with: Events DC July 2017 With Technical Assistance from: CARNEGIE LIBRARY ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT This page left intentionally blank. ii CARNEGIE LIBRARY ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC), in cooperation with Events DC, has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) to evaluate impacts of alternatives for the rehabilitation of the Carnegie Library building at Mount Vernon Square in Washington, DC. This EA evaluates the impacts of the proposed rehabilitation, the Action Alternative, and a No-Action Alternative on the natural and human environment. The purpose of the proposed action is to rehabilitate and modernize the Carnegie Library to serve as a new city square for Washington, DC, where the community can come to learn, be entertained and collaborate. The project would include the rehabilitation of the interior and the restoration of the exterior of the Carnegie Library. The proposed project would also include restoration of the historic light well in the central atrium space and reconfiguration of the north entrance. The Library would be leased jointly by the Historical Society of Washington (HSW) and a retail tenant that would operate a retail, events, and educational facility in the building. The proposed project is subject to the review of NCPC under the National Capital Planning Act. This EA has been prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), the Council on Environmental Quality’s Regulations for Implementing NEPA (40 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] 1500-1508), NCPC’s implementing regulations (69 FR 41299), and the National Capital Planning Act. Questions or comments on the EA should be addressed to: National Capital Planning Commission Attention: Mr. Lee Webb 401 9th Street, NW North Lobby, Suite 500 Washington, DC 20004 Phone: (202) 482-7200 Email: [email protected] iii CARNEGIE LIBRARY ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT This page left intentionally blank. iv CARNEGIE LIBRARY ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT TABLE OF CONTENTS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ................................................................................................................... iii Table of Contents ............................................................................................................................ v Purpose and Need for the Proposed Action .......................................................................... 1 What is Being Proposed for the Carnegie Library?
