affected, its uses, and any specific feature of the area that has
special environmental significance;
(2) An analysis of the proposal, and reasonable alternatives exploring
the important consequent advantages and/or disadvantages of the action
and indicating the direct and indirect effects and their significance

Protection Agency, the copies or summaries will be mailed with a
request for comment to Federal agencies having jurisdiction by law or
special expertise, to the Council on Environmental Quality, to the
applicant, to individuals, groups and state and local agencies known to
have an interest in the environmental consequences of a grant, and to
any other person who has requested a copy.
(d) Any person or agency may comment on the DEIS and the environmental
effect of the proposal described therein within 45 days after notice of
the availability of the statement is published in the Federal Register.
A copy of those comments shall be mailed to the applicant by the person
who files them pursuant to 47 CFR 1.47. An original and one copy shall
