Questions: Are we to assume that all the work is being performed inside the cross-hatched areas?

Answer: Yes, all work is within the cross hatched areas as indicated on the maps.

Questions: Is there a color coded key for the maps so we can tell which roads are proposed for work and what type of work will happen at each location?

Answer: The specific project locations have not been identified at this time. Public scoping and NEPA needs to be performed for the specific project sites before the information can be made public.
