ACTION: Notice of availability, notice of public comment period, notice of public information meeting and public hearing. SUMMARY: The FAA is issuing this Notice of Availability to advise the public that a Draft EIS will be available for public review beginning May 16, 2008. The document was prepared pursuant to major environmental directives to comply with NEPA: Section 102(2)(c) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (Pub. L. 91–190); Section 106 consultation for impacts to historic structures, as identified in 36 CFR 800.8, Coordination with the National Environmental Policy Act; U.S. Department of Transportation Section 303(c) consultation; and other applicable Federal and State environmental laws, regulations, and Executive Orders. The Draft EIS was prepared in response to a proposal presented to the FAA by the Columbus Regional Airport Authority (CRAA), the owner and PO 00000 Frm 00107 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 operator of CMH and identified in the Draft EIS as the Airport Sponsor, for environmental review. The FAA prepared this Draft EIS to analyze and disclose potential environmental impacts related to possible Federal actions at CMH. Numerous Federal actions would be necessary if airfield development were to be implemented. Proposed improvements include replacement of Runway 10R/28L, Development of a New Passenger Terminal, and other airfield projects (see below). The Draft EIS presents the purpose and need for the proposed Federal action, analysis of reasonable alternatives, including the No Action alternative, discussion of impacts for each reasonable alternative, and supporting appendices. The FAA will consider all information contained in this Draft EIS and additional information that may be provided during the public comment period before issuing a Final EIS and Agency decision regarding the possible alternatives and Federal actions. The Airport Sponsor proposes to replace Runway 10R/28L at CMH, approximately 700 feet south of the existing Runway 10R/28L; develop new terminal facilities in the midfield area; provide ancillary facilities in support of the replacement runway and midfield terminal; and implement noise abatement air traffic procedures developed for the replacement runway. The replacement runway would be 10,113 feet long. This length would maintain CMH’s ability to accommodate current and projected airport operations. Existing Runway 10R/28L would be decommissioned as a runway and converted into a taxiway upon commissioning of the replacement runway. In addition, a south taxiway and north parallel taxiways to proposed Runway 10R/28L would be constructed. To meet future aircraft parking and passenger processing requirements, new midfield terminal facilities are needed. The Draft EIS assesses a development envelope that is defined as an area large enough to encompass Phase I and II of the CRAA terminal development program. The Draft EIS discusses the number of gates, approximate square footage, approximate curb frontage, and the number of passengers that the terminal would accommodate. Ancillary facilities in support of the replacement runway and midfield terminal would be constructed. The facilities include roadway relocations and construction; parking improvements; property acquisition; and relocation of residences, as necessary. E:\FR\FM\09MYN1.SGM 09MYN1
