Note. This public notice (ArDOT Northwest Arkansas National Airport Access Road) was previously published on June 12, 2023, prior to the proposed ArDOT Springdale Northern Bypass public notice. It should have been published after the Springdale Northern Bypass public notice since the Bypass would serve as the terminus for the Airport Access Road. Pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S. Code 1344), notice is hereby given that, Arkansas Department of Transportation, PO Box 2261, Little Rock, Arkansas 72203-2261, has requested authorization for work, including the placement of dredged and fill material, in waters of the United States associated with constructing a new highway that will connect the future Springdale Northern Bypass to the Northwest Arkansas National Airport. The proposed project will cross nine streams and two wetlands and is located in sections 4, 9, 14, 15, 16, and 23, T. 18 N., R. 31 W., Benton County, Arkansas. The project purpose is to improve access from the future Springdale Northern Bypass (SNB) to the Northwest Arkansas National Airport (XNA). As the population increases in Northwest Arkansas, demand at XNA has increased for both passenger and freight flights. The proposed project would provide an improved connection between XNA and the SNB that reduces congestion and increases reliability.

Expiration date: 9/19/2022

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S. Code 1344), notice is hereby given that the Arkansas Department of Transportation, PO Box 2261, Little Rock, Arkansas 72203-2261, has requested authorization for work, including the placement of dredged and fill material, in waters of the United States associated with constructing a four-lane divided roadway connecting U.S. Highway 278 east of Monticello to U.S. Highway 65 north of McGehee (ArDOT Job No. 020678). The project is part of the future Interstate 69. The proposed project will impact several streams and adjacent wetlands in sections 13, 23 and 24, T. 12 S., R. 6 W., sections 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11, T. 12 S., R. 5 W., sections 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12, T. 12 S., R. 4 W., and sections 7, 8 and 9, T. 12 S., R. 3 W., Drew and Desha Counties, Arkansas. The project purpose is to construct a portion of I-69 which will improve efficiency for the movement of goods, improve economic development in the Mississippi Delta and improve transportation linkages in areas of the United States that were overlooked in the original interstate system. The proposed project is approximately 17 miles in length, will consist of four lanes and will be constructed on new location. The project would initially construct two 12-foot-wide travel lanes with 8-foot-wide inside shoulders and 10-foot-wide outside shoulders. The remaining two lanes would be constructed as funding becomes available. This permit review will evaluate the impacts for the four-lane project as well as the proposed wetland and stream mitigation for all impacts.
