• A major milestone was reached on July 1, 2011 when the Federal Highway Administration signed the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) and approved it for public availability. This important approval allowed the City and FDOT to conduct a Public Hearing to obtain public input on the project. The Public Hearing was conducted on September 22nd at the Port St. Lucie Civic Center. There were over 400 people in attendance. For a copy of the presentation materials and display boards presented at this meeting please click on RESOURCE CENTER tab above, then Reports, then scroll down to SEPTEMBER 22, 2011 PUBLIC HEARING MATERIALS.
The DEIS and associated technical reports can be viewed on this website. Go to Draft Project Documents
• The DEIS and associated technical reports provide over 4,000 pages of detailed analysis. This includes an evaluation of numerous alternatives and the environmental and community impacts that are expected to result from each alternative.
• Once all input has been received and considered, a preferred alternative will be selected for inclusion in the Final Environmental Impact Statement.
