CFR 1500-1508), DHS procedures for implementing NEPA (DHS Instruction
Manual 023-01-001-01 (series)), Coast Guard Environmental Planning
Policy (Commandant Instruction [COMDTINST] 5090.1), and other
applicable DHS and Coast Guard policies and guidance. A Notice of
Intent (NOI) to prepare the PEIS was published in the Federal Register
on May 7, 2021 (86 FR 24637). On October 11, 2022, the Coast Guard
published a Notice of Availability (NOA) and a request for comments on
the Draft PEIS (87 FR 61344). In response to a comment in the Docket

The NOA for the Final PEIS was published on November 15, 2024, and
the original wait period would have concluded on December 16, 2024. The
Coast Guard will extend the wait period for the Final PEIS to allow for

period. The Coast Guard will not issue a Record of Decision until after
January 10, 2025.
