Notice is hereby given that on January 20, 2021 the Skagit Council of Governments (SCOG) released the Skagit 2045 Regional Transportation Plan (Plan) for public comment. SCOG, as the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) lead agency for this nonproject action, has determined it will not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment and has therefore issued a Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) for the Plan pursuant to Chapter 197-11 of the Washington Administrative Code. The DNS was made after a review of the SEPA Environmental Checklist for the Plan along with other information on file with SCOG.

Comments on the Plan or the DNS may be mailed to Skagit Council of Governments, c/o Mark Hamilton, 315 South Third Street, Suite 100, Mount Vernon, WA 98273 or emailed to markh@scog.net. Comments on the Plan or the DNS must be submitted in writing and received by SCOG no later than February 5, 2021. All timely comments on the Plan or the DNS will be considered.
