<br />4.10.4 Conclusion
<br />No significant impacts on minority or low-income populations are expected with the implementation of
<br />any of the Action Alternatives. Although, some of the Census Block Groups within three miles of the
<br />Action Alternatives do contain substantial populations of minority and low-income populations,
<br />appreciable concentrations of such populations are more distant than one mile, limiting the potential
<br />impact of the Action Alternatives to no more than minimal and not significant. Differences in impacts
<br />among Action Alternatives would be extremely small with the NNR Alternative with or without the MR
