Notice of Availability of a Record of Decision (ROD) for a Written Re-evaluation of the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for the Relocation of the Panama City-Bay County International Airport, Panama City, FL

AGENCY:

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).

ACTION:

Notice of availability of a Record of Decision (ROD).

SUMMARY:

The FAA is issuing this notice to advise the public that it has issued a ROD for a Written Re-evaluation of the FEIS for the Relocation of the Panama City-Bay County International Airport, Panama City, Florida. The FEIS for the relocation of the airport was issued in May 2006. The FAA issued a ROD for this federal action in September 2006. Airport facilities are currently being constructed at the new airport site. This ROD is issued for a Written Re-evaluation of the FEIS because the Panama City-Bay County Airport and Industrial District (Airport Sponsor) has proposed to extend the primary runway (Runway 16L-34R) from 8,400 feet to 10,000 feet. This ROD approves the extension and other minor changes as shown on a revised Airport Layout Plan (ALP) that has been submitted to the FAA. Subsequent to this ROD, the FAA will conditionally approve the revised ALP.
