Potsdam Municipal Airport - Master Plan – Phase 1 Report 2.04-6 Floodplains Flood plains are defined as "the lowland and relatively flat areas adjoining inland and coastal waters including flood-prone areas of offshore islands, including at a minimum, that area subject to a one percent or greater chance of flooding in any given year." The Threshold of Significance (TOS) is exceeded when there is an encroachment on a base flood plain (100-year flood). An encroachment involves: • A considerable probability of loss of life, • Likely future damage associated with encroachment that could be substantial in cost or extent, including interruption of service or loss of vital transportation facilities, or • A notable adverse impact on natural and beneficial flood plain values. According to the NYSDEC, there are no floodplains present on the Airport property or the immediate vicinity. The Village of Potsdam noted that the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map Community Number 361185-06 indicates that the Airport is situated in Zone C. 2.04-7 Biotic Communities/Endangered and Threatened Species of Flora and Fauna Consideration of biotic communities and endangered and threatened species is required for all proposals under the Endangered Species Act as Amended. Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act as Amended requires each Federal agency to insure that any action the agency carries out "is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any endangered species or threatened species or result in the destruction or adverse modification of habitat" of critical species. Correspondence from the NYSDEC notes that the Autumnal Water-starwort, an endangered plant, could be located to the south and west of the airport property. The NYSDEC stated that “the plant was last observed in 1873, so may, or may not, be extant.” The United States Department of Interior (USDOI) Fish and Wildlife Service correspondence referred requests to their website. The website lists several endangered bird species for St. Lawrence County: Black Tern, Golden Eagle, Loggerhead Shrike, Peregrine Falcon, Short-eared Owl, and Spruce Grouse. There are also several threatened bird species: Bald Eagle, Common Tern, Henslow’s Sparrow, Least Bittern, Northern Harrier, Pied-billed Grebe, Sedge Wren, and Upland Sandpiper. 2-38
Potsdam Municipal Airport - Master Plan – Phase 1 Report 2.04-8 Coastal Zone Management Program and Coastal Barriers Potsdam Municipal Airport is not located within or adjacent to New York State’s coastal zone. Any proposed action and reasonable alternatives will not adversely impact the coastal zone natural resources protected by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration regulations under 15 CFR Part 930. 2.04-9 Wild and Scenic Rivers There are no listed Wild, Scenic, or Recreational Rivers in the vicinity of the Airport, or surrounding area. Therefore, no future impacts associated with this category are anticipated. 2.04-10 Farmland The Farmland Protection Policy Act (Public Law 97-98) directs federal agencies to use criteria developed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to identify and analyze impacts related to the conversion of farmland to nonagricultural uses. The Airport is in the vicinity of identified Agricultural Districts. These districts are located in all directions surrounding the Airport, but none are on airport property. Since the Airport is not located directly in an Agricultural District, any proposed action and reasonable alternatives will not require acquisition of land presently used for farming. If development is required within farmlands, the necessary steps will be taken to identify and analyze any impacts associated with such development. 2.04-11 Energy Supply and Natural Resources FAA guidance sets forth protocols for analyzing changes in demand for energy supplies associated with: • Major changes in stationary facilities that may make for large demands on local existing or planned utilities • The use of scarce or unusual materials to construct proposed facilities • Significant changes to existing aircraft fuel use Correspondence from the NYSDEC notes that “natural resources and energy supply is not a significant issue at the Potsdam Airport.” 2-39
