The U.S. Coast Guard issued a Notice that it intends to prepare a Supplemental Program Environmental Assessment (SPEA) for its National
Distress and Response System Modernization Project. The SPEA will examine reasonable alternatives for the deployment of dual-mode VHF/UHF radio equipment to either an existing national distress system antenna tower site,
antenna tower space leased from a commercial provider, or new construction of an antenna tower site. Comments relating to this effort should be
submitted by June 24, 2002.
