Document Description
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is proposing to rehabilitate California Forest Highway 199 (FH 199), also known as Convict Lake R. FHWA has prepared a Categorical Exclusion (CE) for the project; the CE concludes that the project will have no effect on environmental resources. Based on findings contained in the CE, the FHWA finds the project to be categorically excluded from further NEPA analysis and further NEPA approvals. Federal project funding is through the Federal Lands Access Program, which requires matching funds from Mono County as the local government. The County's matching fund contribution for this project will be obtained under the State Transportation Improvement Program. FHWA will use the County's matching fund contribution to fund a portion of the Convict Lake Road (but not trail) improvements. Project implementation will require the Mono County Board of Supervisors to accept responsibility for long-term maintenance of the Convict Lake Rd improvements. The County must comply with applicable requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to accomplish these actions.
