Notice of Extension for the Final Environmental Impact Statement for the Proposed Airport, Angoon, Alaska

The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities filed a title XI ANILCA application with the FAA, U.S. Forest Service, and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on January 9, 2015. ANILCA section 1104(e), states that ``the final environmental impact statement shall be completed within one year from the date of such filing. Such nine- month and one-year periods may be extended for good cause by the Federal agency head assigned lead responsibility for the preparation of such statement if he determines that additional time is necessary for such preparation, notifies the applicant in writing of such determination and publishes notice of such determination, together with the reasons therefore, in the Federal Register''. Due to complexities of the project, the FAA has determined that additional time is necessary to complete the final environmental impact statement.
