Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 182 / Wednesday, September 21, 2005 / Notices
The FAA’s detailed evaluation will be
conducted under the provision of 14
CFR part 150, section 150.33. The
primary consideration in the evaluation
process are whether the proposed
measures may reduce the level of
aviation safety, create an undue burden
on interstate or foreign commerce, or be
reasonably consistent with obtaining the
goal of reducing existing noncompatible land used and preventing
the introduction of additional noncompatible land uses.
Interested persons are invited to
comment on the proposed program with
specific reference to these factors, all
comments, other than those properly
addressed to local land use authorities,
will be considered by the FAA to the
extent practicable. Copies of the noise
exposure maps and the proposed noise
compatibility program are available for
examination at the following locations:

the Proposed New Air Traffic Control
Tower at the St. Louis Downtown
Airport in Cahokia, IL

ACTION: Notice of availability of a Final
Environmental Assessment and Finding
of No Significant Impact/Record of
Decision (FONSI/ROD) for the Proposed
New Air Traffic Control Tower at the St.
Louis Downtown Airport in Cahokia,
Illinois.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) is issuing this
notice to advise the public that the FAA
has prepared and approved on
VerDate Aug<31>2005
14:40 Sep 20, 2005
Jkt 205001
September 8, 2005, a Finding of No
Significant Impact/Record of Decision
(FONSI/ROD) based on the Final
Environmental Assessment (Final EA)
for the following proposed action at the
St. Louis Downtown Airport: the
construction of a new Air Traffic
Control Tower, associated support
building, parking lot, and access road.
The FAA prepared the Final EA in
accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and
the FAA’s regulations and guidelines for
environmental documents. The Final
EA was reviewed and evaluated by the
FAA and was accepted on September 6,
2005 as a Federal document by the
FAA’s Responsible Federal Official.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The existing Air Traffic Control
Tower (ATCT) at the St. Louis
Downtown Airport was built in 1973
and soon after was expanded by the
addition of a mobile office trailer to
house administrative personnel. The
current tower stands approximately 52
feet in height with a controller’s eye
height of approximately 41 feet.
Continual visibility problems, due to
existing trees in an adjacent residential
development, impede the controller’s
line of sight for airfield movement areas
and runway approaches. The visibility
problem, due to trees obscuring
significant portions of two runway ends,
4 and 30L, are ongoing and worsening.
The proposed new ATCT, with a total
elevation of 553.8′ MSL (141′ 10″ AGL)
and a controller eye height of 528.3′
MSL (116′ 4″ AGL) would significantly
improve visual capabilities.
Air traffic controller equipment in the
existing tower has not been significantly
upgraded since the tower was
constructed in 1973, although there has
been nearly a 50 percent increase in
airport operations over the past 30
years. Annual aircraft operations
recorded during operating hours of the
ATCT (7 a.m. to 9 p.m.), in the early
1970s, when the existing tower was
constructed, totaled approximately
115,000. In 2001, the total number of
operations recorded between the 7 a.m.
to 9 p.m. timeframe was nearly 170,000.
The proposed new ATCT would allow
for modernized equipment, enhancing
the level of safety for the current
number of aircraft operations at the St.
Louis Downtown Airport.

The Final EA has been prepared in
accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as
amended, FAA Order 1050.1E,
‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures’’ and FAA Order 5050.4A,
‘‘Airport Environmental Handbook’’.
The proposed development action is
consistent with the National Airspace
System Plan prepared by the U.S.
Department of Transportation, Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA).
A Final Environmental Assessment

Impact/Record of Decision is available
