We have l imited our report to "facts and figures" concerning the Highway Department and Washington State*s highway system, and have made no attempts to advance opinion or philosophy. We intend this book to be a reference guide for anyone - students, legislators, news media people and Highway Department employees - who need information on Washington's primary transportation system. Compi l ing the information for this book has been - and wi l l continue to be - a formidable task, requiring many hours and much di l igent research. The book you are now holding does not contain "everything" about the highway system; rather, ^it contains the information we have compiled so far and have included in it. More - much more - wi l l be forthcoming in the future. We wi l l send additional information to those who receive the book as it becomes avai lable, and we ask that those who want to stay up to date to supply the Publ ic Information Office with their names and addresses. We hope our book serves your needs and we wi l l welcome any suggestions, comments and criticisms you may care to give us regarding its contents.

  • Finding of No Significant Impact Duportail Street
    Federal Highway Administration FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT for DUPORTAIL STREET BRIDGE BENTON COUNTY, WASHINGTON Issued Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 4332 (2)(c) and 23 U.S.C. 128 (a) This action complies with Executive Order 11988, Floodplain Management, the National Historic Preservation Act, the Department of Transportation Act of 1966, and Executive Order 12898, Environmental Justice. The Duportail Street project will construct a new four-lane bridge and a pedestrian/ bicycle path on the upriver side of the bridge. The project will also extend Tanglewood Drive eastward approximately 700 feet east and 1, 700 feet west of Duportail Street. Sidewalks will be installed where necessary to create a seamless pedestrian network in the project area. It will upgrade the intersection of Duportail Street and SR 240, install a signal at the intersection of Duportail Street and Tanglewood Drive, and build new access to Tanglewood Drive from properties south of Duportail Street. The existing water main, which crosses the Yakima River at this location, will be replaced with a water main onto the new bridge. The parking lot for the existing boat launch will be reconfigured and one nature trail will be designated. The Federal Highway Administration (FHW A) has determined that this proposal to construct a· bridge will have no significant impact on the human or natural environment. This Finding of no Significant Impact (FONSI) is based on the February 2013 Environmental Assessment. The environmental assessment was independently evaluated by the FHWA and determined to adequately and accurately discuss the need, environmental issues, impacts of the proposed project, and appropriate mitigation measures.
