    The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) have announced final actions related to a highway construction project in Jackson Park, Cook County, Illinois. The project includes widening roadways, and constructing trails and underpasses. These actions allow Chicago to proceed with construction, fill material discharge into U.S. waters, and alterations to a federally-funded restoration project. A Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) was issued, indicating the project will not significantly affect the environment, and legal challenges must be filed by July 8, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The government has given the green light to build new roads and paths in a park in Chicago, saying it won’t harm the environment, and people have until July 8, 2021, to ask questions in court. It's like when adults say it's okay to start building Legos without worrying about breaking anything special, but they have to speak up soon if they think there's a problem.

    The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and other federal agencies have made final decisions regarding the State Route 400 Express Lanes project in the Atlanta Metropolitan Area, which involves adding new express lanes to improve traffic flow and travel reliability on a 16-mile segment. The project extends from the North Springs MARTA station in Fulton County to just beyond McFarland Parkway in Forsyth County. FHWA's Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) supports the selected plan, and details are available online and at local libraries. The public has until July 12, 2021, to file any legal claims related to this decision.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is planning to add new lanes to a busy 16-mile road in Georgia to help traffic move faster, and they've decided it won't harm the environment too much. But if anyone thinks this decision is wrong, they have to say something by July 12, 2021.
