The FTA has been designated as the Lead Agency for this project and as such, the FTA 's Categorical Exclusion and Documented Categorical Exclusion Worksheet will be completed along with supporting documentation in the form of an environmental report through the completion of the Scope of Work described below: Scope of Work Task 1.0 Research Project and Related Benefits and Impacts • Develop a project understanding specific to NEPA Criteria for the purpose of formulating appropriate responses and compiling requisite supporting information for the CE work sheet and environmental report. • Coordinate with the City of Moscow staff to establish existing, relevant information sources for use in the development of the environmental report. This effort is intended to minimize redundancy in the generation of project information. • Define FTA expectations, procedures and subtle protocols which may be specific to the FTA's NEPA process. This will likely require third-party or three-way conversations with the FTA coordinated with the City of Moscow staff. Task 2.0 Identify and Address Data Gaps • Identify any additional project information which will be necessary and not previously compiled to complete the required documentation in support of a CE for the project. • Define/resolve how any additional, not-readily available information which is determined necessary will be obtained. Task 3.0 Complete NEPA Submission • In recognition of the project schedule and the current consideration of more than one location for the project, non-site specific project information will first be compiled for incorporation in to the NEPA Submission. Following completion of the site selection process, the CE work sheet apd related environmental report will be expanded to include site-specific information. The objective of this approach is to avoid the generation of unnecessary documentation relative to any site not ultimately selected for the project, while simultaneously maximizing lead time prior to completion of the site selection process. The projected schedule for this project is to complete a draft of the NEPA submission for review by the City of Moscow on or about May 1, 2011. • Following receipt of comments from the City of Moscow staff, a final document will be prepared along with a recommendation for a NEPA finding. This deliverable will be suitable for submission to FTA. It is our understanding that input on this project will be solicited by FTA from other involved agencies. ExHIBIT B- Moscow lTC SCOPE Of WORK FOR NEPA-RELATED SERVICES NOVEMBER 19,2010 PAGE [1 ---PAGE BREAK--- Task 4.0 Follow-up • Follow-up will be provided as necessary throughout the FTA review process. WHPacific will be available to answer questions and clarify issues as necessary. Project Assumptions The Scope of Work described above is subject to the following assumptions: • This project will be reviewed by the FTA and it meets the definition of a Categorical Exemption as defined by 23 CFR 771.117. • There is no significant opposition to the ITC project. In the unlikely event that the project is highly controversial or prompts significant opposition from the public, unanticipated efforts, project costs and delays would be incurred. • Three paper copies and one electronic version of the final document will be provided. • Costs have not been anticipated or included to conduct additional studies of project impact (such as traffic studies or an archaeological review of the selected site). Any studies necessary to complete the environmental report will likely result in additional charges not anticipated in the specified project cost. • Meetings conducted outside of WHPacific's office (excluding video conferencing, conference calls, etc.) will result in additional project costs, including travel expenses. • The completion of this project will require collaboration with the City of Moscow, particularly with regard to gaining access to relevant information necessary for the NEPA submission. In addition, unless requested otherwise, we expect the City of Moscow will be the point of contact with the FT A staff ultimately assigned to facilitate the NEPA review.
