Scoping Study
NEPA Compliance
Kenton County, Kentucky- Metric Environmental collected initial data and completed the Red Flag Summary of the proposed KY-536 corridor from KY-17 to the Campbell County Line. The study will help determine which alternatives are the most effective and those that will be brought forward for further evaluation and eventual recommendation at the end of the environmental study.
An one-mile radius surrounding the existing KY-536 was assessed for the following potential environmental issues:

- Resources
- Environmental Justice

Finally, an ArcGIS exhibit was created which illustrated the various environmental concerns described within the screening analysis document.
