TUPELO, MS: The National Park Service (NPS), in cooperation with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), seeks public comment on an environmental assessment (EA) to establish a right-of-way for TVA to construct a new aerial transmission line across the Natchez Trace Parkway (Parkway) near Kosciusko, MS. The EA analyzes the impacts of permitting the right-of-way for transmission line construction.
The EA has been prepared in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act to provide a decision-making framework that analyzes alternatives to meet the project’s purpose and need. In addition, the EA evaluates impacts to NPS natural and cultural resources and identifies measures to lessen the degree or extent of any impacts from the proposed project.
How to Comment: The public is invited to provide input on the EA. Comments received during the public comment period will be used to help evaluate issues and concerns to be further addressed in the environmental review process.
