Description

The General Services Administration (GSA) is preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to evaluate the potential environmental impacts of modernizing and expanding the Nogales DeConcini Land Port of Entry (LPOE) in Nogales, Arizona. The project aims to address issues related to the outdated and inefficient layout, inadequate space, and separation from the U.S.-Mexico border. The modernization includes replacing existing buildings, expanding the facility from five acres to approximately 25.5 acres, and improving safety, security, and traffic flow. The EIS will consider two action alternatives and a no action alternative, analyzing impacts on air quality, water resources, cultural resources, noise, traffic, and socioeconomic effects on downtown Nogales. Public scoping meetings and comment periods are part of the process to gather input on the scope of the EIS.
