The Proposed Action would provide for modern, operationally efficient ATCTs, which would be designed to meet the energy and sustainability requirements of FAA’s Terminal Facilities Design Standard while adhering to the Council on Environmental Quality’s Guiding Principles for Sustainable Federal Buildings and Associated Instructions. The proposed replacement ATCTs would enable the installation of modern air traffic control equipment, provide adequate space and an enhanced work environment for FAA personnel, lower operating costs, and improve VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:48 Jun 27, 2023 Jkt 259001 environmental performance resulting in energy savings, water efficiency, reduced carbon emissions, and improved indoor air quality while meeting applicable FAA requirements. Based on this analysis, the FAA has preliminarily determined there will not be a significant impact to the human environment from implementation of the Proposed Action. The FAA intends for the PEA to create efficiencies by establishing a ‘‘tiering’’ framework, where appropriate, to project-specific actions that require additional analysis. As decisions on specific project sites are made, to the extent additional NEPA analysis is required, environmental reviews would be conducted to supplement the analysis set forth in this PEA.
