The U.S Department of Commerce, Economic Development Administration (EDA) is considering a request for Federal assistance from the City of Sherwood, Oregon, to complete design and engineering of the Sherwood Employment Area Access Project in Sherwood, Washington County, Oregon. Pur- suant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), EDA is conducting an assessment of the potential of the proposed project to affect the environment and/or historic properties.
The project will consist of the project development, engineering and design of the new East/West industrial collector road be- tween SW Oregon Street and SW 124th Avenue.
