SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) is issuing this
notice to advise the public of the
approval of a Finding of No Significant
Impact (FONSI) on an Environmental
Assessment for proposed Federal
actions at Chicago/Rockford
International Airport, Rockford, Illinois.
The FONSI specifies that the proposed
federal actions and local development
projects are consistent with existing
environmental policies and objectives as
set forth in the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 and will not
significantly affect the quality of the
environment.
A description of the proposed Federal
actions is: (a) To issue an environmental
finding to allow approval of the Airport
Layout Plan (ALP) for the development
items listed below.
The items in the local airport
development project are to: (1) Secure
fill material for air cargo development;
(2) Construct air cargo development
including two buildings and apron area
that would provide a total of
approximately 184,000 square feet of
interior space, approximately 693,000
square feet of apron for taxiing and
parking of up to five widebody aircraft,
automobile/truck parking and access,
and airport service roads, including
grading, drainage, sanitary, electrical,
and lighting, as necessary; (3) Construct
approximately 5,350 linear feet of
sanitary sewer, approximately 1,900
linear feet of storm sewer, lift station
with a 2.16 million gallon per day
capacity and combination and diversion
flow structures for the collection and
treatment of deicing fluids associated
with commercial operations; (4) Obtain
Airport Layout Plan approval for this
proposed project development; and (5)

Notice of Submission Deadline for
Schedule Information for Chicago
O’Hare International Airport for the
Winter 2008/2009 Scheduling Season
AGENCY:
Department of Transportation,
FAA.

ACTION:
Notice of submission deadline.
SUMMARY: The FAA announces a May
15, 2008, deadline for submitting
requests for domestic and international
scheduled arrivals at Chicago O’Hare
International Airport (ORD) for the
Winter 2008/2009 scheduling season
beginning October 26, 2008. The
deadline coincides with the submission
deadline established by the
International Air Transport Association
(IATA) for the Winter 2008/2009
Schedules Conference.
DATES: Proposed schedule information
must be submitted to the FAA no later
than May 15, 2008.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA
currently limits arrivals at ORD from 7

a.m. to 9 p.m., Central Time, Monday
through Friday, and 12 p.m. to 9 p.m.,
Central Time, on Sunday, based
primarily on runway capacity limits.
The FAA’s restrictions at ORD in Title
14, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 93,
Subpart B, are the equivalent of a Level
3 Fully Coordinated Airport as used in
IATA Worldwide Scheduling
Guidelines. Separate schedule
facilitation is done at the airport level
for international passenger flights
operating at Terminal 5. In addition to
filing schedules for FAA runway
capacity review, carriers should also file
Terminal 5 schedules, if appropriate, at
the address indicated in the IATA
Worldwide Scheduling Guidelines,
Annex 3. Carriers would obtain separate
approval for FAA runway slots and
Terminal 5 operations, as appropriate.
The FAA rules limiting flights at ORD
will sunset on October 24, 2008, under
the terms of the rule effective October
29, 2006. This sunset provision was
based on an expected increase in
capacity when the first new runway
opens under the O Hare Modernization
Program (OMP). Runway 9L/27R is
currently planned to be commissioned
in November 2008. This will provide
additional capacity at O’Hare for
arriving and departing aircraft under
various weather and runway
configurations. Capacity projections
estimate over 50,000 annual operations,
or an average of about 8–10 total
operations per hour, may be
accommodated. However, additional
operations must be reasonably
distributed to avoid significant delay
consequences. Terminal and gate
availability are also expected to be
constraints during certain periods.
The FAA is seeking information in
order to review projected schedules and
to assist the agency in determining
whether scheduling limits may continue
to be applied at ORD until further
runway capacity is realized under Phase
II of the OMP. The form of the
scheduling limitations, if needed, has
not been determined. Options include:
(1) Remove FAA scheduling limitations
by letting the rule expire; (2) continue
the airport’s designation as IATA Level
3 and utilize the IATA Worldwide
Scheduling Guidelines, with
appropriate local rules, to review
planned operations and resolve
oversubscribed hours that would result
in unacceptable delays; and (3) increase
the scheduling limits to recognize
additional runway capacity and modify
the expiration date of the current rule.
Any proposal to modify or extend the
rule would be in a separate rulemaking
process.
PO 00000
Frm 00113
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
The FAA recognizes there is a
potential for carriers to file schedules
that are preliminary in nature, rather
than bone fide operational plans, and
that some of the proposed flights may
not actually operate. We understand
that carriers legitimately review
schedule plans for the winter 2008/2009
season well beyond the May 15
submission deadline and that it may not
be possible to have final schedules at
this time, especially for domestic flights.
This is particularly true given the
increasing fuel and operating costs
facing carriers at this time. The FAA
expects carriers to provide the
government realistic information
representative of their schedule plans
for winter 2008/2009 as the information
will be part of our assessment of the
potential operational impacts. The FAA
will discuss carrier schedule requests
relative to available runway capacity in
the weeks following the schedule
submissions, including at the IATA
Schedules Conference in June. A
timetable for a final agency proposal, if
any, to continue limits on operations at
O’Hare after October 24, 2008, has not
been established at this time.
Carriers are requested to provide
information on scheduled arrivals
including flight number, origin airport,
scheduled time of arrival, frequency,
effective dates, and equipment. The
FAA is primarily concerned about
arrival demand, as in the current rule,
since most departures would
subsequently be constrained by the
arrival times given the predominant
nature of hub operations at ORD. The
FAA will, however, accept information
on planned departures by carriers since
this may provide more complete
information and since many carriers use
automated scheduling information
systems.
The U.S. winter scheduling season is
from November 2, 2008, through March
7, 2009, in recognition of the U.S.
standard time dates. The FAA
understands the IATA winter 2008/2009
season is October 26, 2008, through
March 28, 2009. The FAA will accept
schedule information that coincides
with the IATA scheduling season, rather
than U.S. standard time dates, in order
to ease the administrative burdens on
carriers conducting international
operations and in order to ensure that
FAA has the most accurate schedule
information.
