Key Bridge (Round Who Knows But Probably Not Last)

[Max Rockatansky]

Might be high time to adopt the rule proposed here finally:

Unless I'm somehow missing it, I don't think it actually has been adopted?  Sure seems to me like much of this is one-way copy/pasting of AI script binge.

The NOI was issued for the replacement bridge, and that fact stands regardless of who signed it. The point remains: an NOI only occurs when the prior CE is not being used as the governing NEPA document. If you believe the July 2024 CE is still controlling, you can simply cite the FHWA Headquarters concurrence or adoption. If none exists, then the project is in scoping for the reason I stated.

Such verbosity does not hide the misinformation (e.g., MDTA has not issued a new NOI) and continued trolling.

This has become totally ridiculous.

I mean, what do you expect with a retired IT guy pretending to be an expert just because he happened to be IT at a DOT?

I thought this would be over when moderators put a padlock on the original Key Bridge thread.

Now its continued and it seems its lasting longer than the Covid Pandemic.

The mere fact that there was a public announcement of NEPA approval means that FHWA's Specially Designated Project Oversight Manager has signed off on it.  That's all that's needed, since the sdPOM doesn't twitch without HQ approval.

Stop being silly.

Beltway bends over backwards so much he could become the new Francis Scott Key Bridge himself.
