Proposed Memorandum of Agreement on the Route 250 Bypass Ingerchange at McIntire Road to be discussed on Oct. 09, 2009

Below is the agenda and draft Memorandum of Agreement associated with the Route 250 Bypass Interchange at McIntire Road project that is the subject of the meeting on October 9, 2009. Note that the pubic is invited to comment at the end of the meeting, so do not hesitate to attend and share your thoughts. The meeting is focusing on avoidance and mitigation of impacts on historic resources, so comments should be related to that topic.

This is the first time that all of the federal agency stakeholders in this project will be meeting together, and I anticipate a lively discussion of a broad range of issues relating to the interchange design. I look forward to participating in this meeting and working toward solving the many problems associated with the interchange project and its impact on several historic properties on or eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places.
