Environmental Impact Statement for Freedom Airport, Southeast, America (Model Environmental Impact Statement Number 2).

Abstract

This model covers site selection and development of a new general aviation airport to serve as a reliever for a major air carrier airport in a metropolitan area. The environmental impact statement includes sections on the project itself and its purpose, a summary of the site selection process and related actions, and an assessment of fifteen impact categories. The document also describes alternatives considered in the process and measures to be taken to minimize adverse effects. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-95 coordination results are included, as are the results of Federal agency review of a draft. This hypothetical airport project involves development of a site which requires filling in a portion of a bay and displacement of a mobile home trailer park. Emphasis is placed on marine biology, recreational uses of the bay, and coastal zone considerations. (Author)
