The provisions of section 1734 of title 43 shall apply to each environmental impact statement under this subsection in the same manner as such pro- visions apply to applications relating to the public lands referred to in section 1734 of title 43. The Federal agency assigned lead responsi- bility shall, in conjunction with such other Fed- eral agencies before which the application is pending, hold public hearings in the District of Columbia and an appropriate location in the State on each draft joint environmental impact statement and the views expressed therein shall be considered by all Federal agencies concerned before publication of the final joint environ- mental impact statement.
