Abstract The attention of the Council has been drawn on a nuinber of occasions to the question of the application of the National Environmental Policy Act to the Metro Rapid Rail Transit project in the Washington area. As you know, the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority is not a Federal agency under NEPA. However, a number of Federal agencies, including the Coast Guard, are now involved in the necessary clearances for Metro crossings of the Anacostia and Potomac Rivers, and it is desirE"'ole that one lead agency be designated to do the impact statements involved. In addition, the annual Federal contribution to the project is a DOT appropriation item and we believe that members of the House Appropriations Committee may be expecting an overall impact statement in this connection.
