Ah Environmental Itnp'aet Statement (E15) had hot •b°een 'deettec`
hece'ssa*'y four the — Convention Center because the.State -Dep rt :
ent'of.• •AdMinisstration, ;bivision of Planning .had determined -
that this project was not a Development .of kegional Ittpagt'.
•('DRI) and would not require an Environmental ttnpace Statement.
under the guidelines of -the State.
tatement
However when application was made to the Federal GoveZnmeht
for a $4.3 million grant under the Public. Works Employment Act
of 1976,•the Economic Development Administration found the
project to be highly qualifiable except for the fact than an
Environment Impact Statement would be required because of the
other developments that would take place downtown as a result
of the Convention Center being built.
A new Public Works Employment Act of 1977 is now being prepared
for legislative action in Washington and the City of Miami will.
have no chance of having their application for the Convention
Center approved unless they have an Environmental Impact State-
ment prepared.
Attached is the Economic Development Administration's "Outline
for Draft Environmental Impact Statement" which outlines the
Scope of Work required.
It has been determined that this special consulting service can
be added to the Architect/Engineer's contract as an additional
service for a fee not to exceed $42,000 and can be completed in
90 days.
ACTION
It is recommended that the City Commission direct the City Manager•,
to add this additional service to the Architect/Engineer's Scope
of Work and amend their contract accordingi,y.
