The report is intended to analyse the impact upon the environment by construction of a segment of the I-40 Interstate System from Tucumcari, New Mexico, to a point 13 miles east. It will connect to the existing four-lane highway in Texas thereby eliminating an obsolete and hazardous section of U.S. 66. The placing of traffic over the interstate route will move some traffic noise caused by trucks and automobiles into residential locations where none now exists. Air pollution created by vehicles and retained in suspension by the atmosphere is unlikely to become a factor for consideration. Water pollution will be very slight. It is not conceivable that the interstate will in any serious way influence the ecology and the normal pattern of life of the existing local wildlife.
