Access to the Region's Core in Hudson County, New York Final Environmental Impact Statement

Abstract

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and NJ TRANSIT have completed a Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) and Section 4(f) Evaluation for the Access to the Region’s Core (ARC) project. As a result of public and agency comments received on the Build Alternative (documented in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement published in February 2007 and Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement published in March 2008), and advancement of preliminary engineering, NJ TRANSIT has refined elements of the Build Alternative to avoid, minimize or mitigate projected impacts, without sacrificing achievement of project goals and objectives.
