Guidance for Using the Interactive Tool for Understanding NEPA at General Aviation Airports
Most general aviation (GA) airports are minimally staffed and rarely employ environmental
specialists, and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) can be overwhelming to
work through for those not familiar with the requirements.
The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's
ACRP Research Report 211:
Guidance for Using the Interactive Tool for Understanding NEPA
at General Aviation Airports, and the accompanying
interactive tool that was developed, will help airport staff from GA airports understand
the NEPA process.
The report provides an overview of NEPA, when it is applied, and
the three levels of NEPA review. The tool will be helpful in better understanding the level
of effort that may be required to comply with NEPA.
An
annotated bibliography, which was Appendix A to the Contractor’s Final Report, is also available.
