Public Scoping Meeting. The Xxxxxxx Access Project is one of several projects currently underway in Ketchikan. The Borough has initiated a comprehensive planning process for Xxxxxxx Island, is pursuing an update to its coastal management plan, and is also conducting wetlands planning. These planning efforts comprise the Borough's "Ketchikan 2020" planning program. The U.S. Forest Service is engaged in a timber sale environmental impact statement for its lands on west Xxxxxxx Island. The Alaska Mental Health Trust has lands on Xxxxxxx Island that it would like to see developed to achieve its objective of realizing income from its land base to support state mental health programs. The DOT&PF and HDR Alaska project team determined that sharing information, cooperating on data collection efforts, and agreeing to communicate often as the different projects are implemented would benefit these and other planning efforts in the Ketchikan area. . To this end the public scoping meeting was broadened to a "planning fair" format. Multiple local, state and federal agencies were invited to Ketchikan to set up a booth at the Xxx Xxxxx Civic Center to enable the public to engage the different agencies about their respective planning efforts and learn how the efforts related to the Xxxxxxx Access Project. The "planning fair" concept was presented to the local, state, and federal agencies as a suggested means to facilitate the scoping process. Agency support for the concept was strong.

Additional copies of the insert were obtained to use in follow-up outreach efforts. These were made available to the agencies at the agency scoping meeting and the general public through the Xxxxxxx Access Project Ketchikan project office and the Ketchikan Gateway Borough, Planning Department Office.

Intervenors play a more formal role in the process. Among other things, intervenors have the right to receive copies of case-related Commission documents and filings by other intervenors. Likewise, each intervenor must provide 14 copies of its filings to the Secretary of the Commission and must send a copy of its filings to all other parties on the Commission’s service list for this proceeding. If you want to become an intervenor you must file a motion to intervene according to Rule 214 of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR Federal Register / Vol. 67, No. 181 / Wednesday, September 18, 2002 / Notices 58785 385.214) (see appendix 1).3 Only intervenors have the right to seek rehearing of the Commission’s decision. Affected landowners and parties with environmental concerns may be granted intervenor status upon showing good cause by stating that they have a clear and direct interest in this proceeding which would not be adequately represented by any other parties. You do not need intervenor status to have your environmental comments considered.
