SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The City of Chicago (City), Department of Aviation, as owner and operator of Chicago O'Hare International Airport (O'Hare or the Airport), P.O. Box 66142, Chicago, IL 60666, proposes to modernize O'Hare to address existing and future capacity and delay problems. The City initiated master planning and the process of seeking FAA approval to amend its airport layout plan to depict the O'Hare Modernization Program (OMP). The City is also seeking the other necessary FAA approvals to implement the OMP and associated capital improvements and procedures. The FAA has prepared its O'Hare Modernization DEIS addressing specific improvements at and adjacent to Chicago O'Hare International Airport, Chicago, Illinois. FAA's DEIS, issued on January 21, 2005, presents an evaluation of the City's proposed project and reasonable alternatives. Under the City's concept, O'Hare's existing seven-runway configuration would be replaced by an eight-runway configuration, in which six runways would be oriented generally in the east/west direction, the existing northeast/southwest- oriented Runways 4L/22R and 4R/22L would remain, and Runways 14L/32R and 14R/32L would be closed. The Section 303/4(f) and Section 6(f) Evaluation is available for review until July 5, 2005, on the FAA's Web site https:// www.agl.faa.gov/OMP/DEIS.htm), and at the following locations: Arlington Heights Memorial Library, 500 North Dunton Ave., Arlington Heights Bellwood Public Library, 600 Bohland Ave., Bellwood Bensenville Community Public Library, 200 S.
