Department of Transportation April 19, 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

FTA, in coordination with the Delaware River Port Authority (DRPA)/Port Authority Transit Corporation (PATCO), is issuing this Notice of Intent (NOI) to advise the public that it proposes to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to assess the potential environmental impacts associated with the construction and operation of the Glassboro-Camden Line (GCL) light rail system, as well as assess and document a No-Action Alternative and a Transportation System Management (TSM) Alternative. The proposed GCL system is approximately 18 miles long and would operate between the Borough of Glassboro in Gloucester County and the City of Camden in Camden County along, and primarily within, the existing Conrail railroad right-of-way. Light Rail technology along this alignment was selected as the Recommended Alternative based on a two-year Alternatives Analysis completed by DRPA/PATCO in 2009.

This action proposes to amend Class E Airspace at Smithfield, NC, to accommodate the additional airspace needed for the Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) developed for Johnston County Airport. This action enhances the safety and airspace management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations at the airport.

This action proposes to amend Class E airspace at Southwest Washington Regional Airport, Kelso, WA, to accommodate aircraft using the new Area Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning System (GPS) Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAP's) at Southwest Washington Regional Airport. The FAA is proposing this action to enhance the safety and management of aircraft operations at the airport. This action will also change the airport name from Kelso-Longview Airport.

This action corrects a NPRM published in the Federal Register March 30, 2010. In that NPRM, the airspace docket number was incorrectly published as ``09-ASW-3'' instead of ``09-ASW-40.'' This action corrects that error.
