Environmental groups critique draft highway statement
An environmental group opposing a proposed freeway labels the draft environmental statement inadequate and self serving. They plan a detailed critique to be submitted to federal environmental officials after a public Johnson County Board discussion. The group, previously involved in a U S district court action leading to the statement, seeks to press for full review amid plans for extension of freeway 518 through Johnson County toward a scenic area. The activist group is joined by local labor leaders in a broader mobilization surrounding the highway project.
