Courthouse; Notice of Availability; Final Environmental Impact 
Statement

    Action: Pursuant to the Council on Environmental Quality 
Regulations (40 Code of Federal Regulations 1500-1508) implementing 
procedural provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), 
the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) hereby gives notice that 
a Final EIS for the construction of a new FB-CT within the City of 
Phoenix, Arizona has been prepared and filed with the United States 
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The proposed project would 
include the construction of a new FB-CT with appropriately 515,010 
gross square feet (GSF) of building space and 360 onsite parking 
spaces. The preferred site encompasses approximately 4.5 acres and is 
located within the city's redevelopment area known as the Government 
Mall. The site is bound by Washington Street to the north, 4th Avenue 
to the east, Jefferson Street to the south and 6th Avenue to the west. 
Under the Proposed Action, 5th and 6th Avenues would be closed to 
vehicular traffic.
    Alternatives: In addition to the Proposed Action, the DEIS examined 
three alternatives including: (1) construction of the FB-CT on the same 
site as the Proposed Action with 6th Avenue remaining open to vehicular 
traffic; (2) construction of the FB-CT on an alternate site within the 
DBA; and (3) no action or continued use of the existing FB-CT and lease 
space.
    Public Involvement: The Final EIS, prepared by GSA addressing this 
action, is on file and may be obtained from: Mr. Alan R. Campbell, U.S.
