18 Action Alternative A
Physical Effects: No contributing features within railroad
Visual Effects: No significant views or visual resources in this portion of the HD. NO ADVERSE EFFECT. Noise and Vibration Effects: No exceedances of FTA thresholds at test locations. NO ADVERSE EFFECT.
Action Alternative B
Physical Effects: Same as Action Alternative A. Visual Effects: Same as Action Alternative A. Noise and Vibration Effects: Same as Action Alternative A.
Cumulative
No contributing features within railroad corridor or potential to alter significant views or visual resources. NO ADVERSE EFFECT.
Temporary
Construction staging and access would diminish integrity
ADVERSE EFFECT.
19 Action Alternative A
Physical Effects: Construction of a new railroad bridge would remove contributing vegetation. DIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT. Visual Effects: New bridge would be added in area of diminished integrity. NO ADVERSE EFFECT. Noise and Vibration Effects: No exceedances of FTA thresholds at test locations. NO ADVERSE EFFECT.
Action Alternative B
Physical Effects: Construction of a new railroad bridge would remove contributing vegetation. Would also remove the contributing railroad bridge. DIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT. Visual Effects: Removal of existing Long Bridge and trestle would diminish integrity of setting and feeling. INDIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT. Noise and Vibration Effects: Same as Action Alternative A
Cumulative
Construction of a bike‐pedestrian crossing and access ramp would remove contributing vegetation. DIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT.
Temporary
Construction staging, access, and trail relocation would diminish integrity of feeling, association, and setting of the GWMP. DIRECT AND INDIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT.
20 Action Alternative A
Physical Effects: Construction of a new railroad bridge would remove contributing vegetation. DIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT. Visual Effects: New bridge would be added in area of diminished integrity. NO ADVERSE EFFECT. Noise and Vibration Effects: No exceedances of FTA thresholds at test locations. NO ADVERSE EFFECT.
Action Alternative B
Physical Effects: Same as Action Alternative A. Visual Effects: Removal of existing Long Bridge and truss would diminish integrity of setting and feeling. INDIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT. Noise and Vibration Effects: Same as Action Alternative A
Cumulative
Construction of a bike‐pedestrian crossing and access ramp would remove contributing vegetation. DIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT.
Temporary
Construction staging, access, and trail relocation would diminish integrity of feeling, association, and setting of the MVMH. DIRECT AND INDIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT.

36 Action Alternative A
Physical Effects: Construction of a new railroad bridge would remove contributing vegetation. DIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT. Visual Effects: Despite visible changes along Ohio Drive SW and along perimeter of park, they do not rise to the level of adverse. NO ADVERSE EFFECT. Noise and Vibration Effects: No exceedances of FTA thresholds at test locations. NO ADVERSE EFFECT.
Action Alternative B
Physical Effects: Removal of contributing Long Bridge represents a total loss of contributing feature. Construction of a new railroad bridge would remove contributing vegetation. DIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT. Visual Effects: Same as Action Alternative A. Noise and Vibration Effects: Same as Action Alternative A.
Cumulative
Construction of a bike‐pedestrian crossing and access ramp would remove contributing vegetation. DIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT.
Temporary
Construction staging and access would diminish integrity of feeling, association, and setting of the HD. Temporary construction noise has potential to diminish integrity of contributing U.S. Engineers’ Storehouse. DIRECT AND INDIRECT ADVERSE EFFECT.
