Comments and Responses-Letter 7 <br />7. Joanne Jones <br />7.1-Comment acknowledged; <br />developing the Riverfront site <br />would result in increased activity <br />in the area surrounding the site. <br />7.2-See response to comment 6.2 <br />above. <br />7.3-The plants and animals <br />section of the draft EIS addresses <br />possible impacts on and around the <br />Riverfront site. The analysis found <br />that significant impacts on plant <br />and animal species are not likely to <br />be associated with construction or <br />operation of the proposed project. <br />The Riverfront site would require <br />removal of existing buildings and <br />landscape vegetation but would not <br />require development of <br />undisturbed land. The project <br />would not affect wildlife habitat <br />found in the nearby Riverfront <br />Park. <br />7.4-The traffic study did not find <br />that developing the courthouse on <br />the Riverfront site would cause a <br />significant degradation of traffic <br />flow in the vicinity. Locating the <br />courthouse on the Riverfront site <br />would physically separate the <br />federal courts from the legal <br />infrastructure that has developed in <br />Eugene. While court-related <br />services do not currently exist in <br />the vicinity of the Riverfront site, <br />these services are expected to develo <br />if it is selected. <br />LetterT <br />U.S. Gcnenl Services Adttilnistratian <br />New Federal Courthouse Environmental Draft Environmental <br />Impact Statement <br />CONIlVIENT SHEET' <br />The U.S. General Services Admiaisttation welcotnrs your comaienm.
