Info

Affected Environment and Environmental Impacts October 2005 Noise As the area develops and additional or higher capacity transportation facilities are constructed, sources of noise (vehicles, general human activities, air travel, etc.) would increase; therefore, it is likely that the relatively low background noise levels in the area would increase as well. Water Resources As the area develops, the demand for water to serve an increasing population would continue to increase. Water providers in the area have, or are developing, long range master plans for their facilities. As a result, it is likely that additional conservation methods, water sources, and/or regulatory controls would be required to provide water to the increasing desert population. Conclusion As the area develops, the function and appearance of the land would change and additional demands upon resources would occur. These changes would occur with or without the construction of the preferred alternative, but these changes would reflect the overall development patterns approved by area governments.

Public Involvement/Project Coordination October 2005 CHAPTER 5: PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT/PROJECT COORDINATION To ensure that the public contributed to this study and had full access to study results, a public involvement plan was prepared early in this project. The public involvement plan for this project included contact with numerous federal, state, and local agencies, utility companies, and residents and business owners potentially affected by the project. The Public Information Meeting and Public Hearing process had three phases: 1) identify public issues, goals, and objectives; 2) relay alternatives to the public based upon number 1; and, 3) present the preferred alternative in a public hearing. Scoping Activities Agency scoping for this project reaches back several years. Numerous meetings were held between the Town of Marana and ADOT, USFWS, AGFD, the Corps, and the NPS to fully understand agency concerns and to proactively address these concerns. Partnering Session - Comments and Response Summary On March 13, 2003, a partnering session was conducted with the Town of Marana, FHWA, ADOT (both district and statewide representatives), resource agencies (AGFD), and the study consultant team. The meeting was intended to: • introduce the participants to each other; • present a project overview; • identify project challenges and opportunities; • establish a project management submittal review structure; • discuss challenges and opportunities; and, • develop an issue escalation ladder and assign project processes and responsible parties. A number of project issues and challenges were identified by the partnering participants. As a result of the partnering session, the issues and opportunities discussed have been investigated during the study. An Executive Committee was created and has met throughout the course of the study. Executive Committee membership includes ADOT district and statewide planning staff, FHWA, and the Town of Marana. In addition, clear lines of authority were established for the project and these lines of authority have been followed throughout the project study. Several technical committees were also formed. General Agency Scoping Meeting - Comments and Response Summary A general agency scoping meeting was held on September 29, 2003 to solicit comments and concerns related to the Twin Peaks Road TI. A list of agencies invited to attend or to submit comments by telephone, electronic mail, or mail and a copy of the invitation letter is included in Appendix A.
