The IBR program is currently performing the required technical review of the Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) in coordination with our federal partners, the Federal Highway Administration and Federal Transit Administration. This comprehensive review ensures the information in the document is complete and accurate.  

Coordination with federal partners is ongoing but takes time to ensure the information is fully vetted. The goal of the program had been to publish the Draft SEIS in the spring, but with the review process still underway, more time will be needed before the program is able to release the document. 

The program is working with its federal partners to identify the anticipated timing of publication later this year and will take proactive steps to update the public as the timeline becomes clear. Upon completion of the technical review, FHWA and FTA will send the document for a 30-day legal review and then the Draft SEIS will be published, followed by a 60-day public comment period for the community to provide feedback.
