<strong>Capital</strong> Region <strong>Airport</strong> Authority<br />
<strong>Capital</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>Airport</strong> <strong>Master</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> <strong>Update</strong><br />
This environmental evaluation was completed and is a part of the on-going environmental process<br />
in order to further examine the environmental consequences associated with the implementation of<br />
the development program recommended in this <strong>Airport</strong> <strong>Master</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> <strong>Update</strong> for <strong>Capital</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>Airport</strong>.<br />
In previous planning efforts, additional environmental overviews and oversight analyses were<br />
undertaken in the context leading elements of the <strong>Master</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> as defined in Chapter 4. This<br />
Chapter will focus on the trailing elements and expand the environmental evaluation impacts of the<br />
preferred leading element alternative. The findings presented in this Chapter are based on<br />
consultant observations; correspondence with federal, state, and local environmental and planning<br />
agencies; and other available data.<br />
