CATEX Checklist and Environmental Report

dse prepared the CATEX Regulatory Checklist for a project that involved improvements to the intersection of Coit Road with Spring Creek Parkway. This project involves minor roadway intersection improvements for about 0.28 miles of urban arterial type roadways, with associated sidewalks and other pedestrian improvements. The accompanying CATEX report outlined purpose and need for the project, affected environment, and potential social, economic, and environmental effects of the proposed project action. Because of the existing suburban setting, there were no significant impacts identified with this action, and the project qualified for a CATEX under 23 CFR § 771.117. This CATEX checklist was completed under an expedited project schedule in order to provide immediate project implementation by the City.
