The National Park Service (NPS) has announced an extension for the public comment period regarding the Multimodal Safety and Operational Improvements Plan and Environmental Assessment for Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway. The deadline, originally set for an earlier date, has now been pushed back to May 17, providing the public with more time to share their thoughts and concerns.
The plan in question, the Multimodal Safety and Operational Improvements Plan, aims to enhance the safety and operation of the parkway. It is part of a larger effort by the NPS to improve visitor experiences while ensuring the protection of natural and cultural resources. The Environmental Assessment is a key part of this plan, examining the potential environmental impacts of proposed improvements.
The NPS encourages public participation in this process, as the feedback received will be crucial in shaping the final plan. The extended deadline offers an additional opportunity for interested parties to contribute their views. Comments can be submitted through the NPS Planning, Environment, and Public Comment (PEPC) system.
