The proposed project contemplates the following items: (1) the acquisition of land (40 acres) for airport development and for clear zones (10 acres); (2) the construction and marking of a NW/SE runway (4000 ft. x 75 ft.); (3) the construction of a connecting taxiway (995 ft. x 40 ft.); (4) the construction of an apron (180 ft. x 150 ft.). The extension and paving projects are necessary in order to allow light multi-engine aircraft to utilize this airport and to make the airport an all-weather facility. The airport site is located approximately three miles south of the city limits of Iowa Falls. There will be an expansion of the ambient noise levels in connection with the runway extension; however, since the runway is not expected to greatly increase the number of large aircraft, there will be no significant increase in adverse effects. There are presently 14 based aircraft at Iowa Falls Municipal Airport. Most operations are of a daylight type and will continue to be so. There will be no division of present communities, nor will there be any adverse social or economic effects. The proposed airport improvement will not involve the displacement or relocation of any persons residing on land required for this project. There are no public lands involved in the proposed project. There will be no adverse effect upon any marine life, or upon any wildlife. There will be no increase in water pollution caused by this project. The proposed project will have no material effect on the area's water table. The short-term effects from this project will be slight. Various phases of this project will involve earthmoving equipment and will generate some dust. The long-term effect will be to provide the community with a facility which is adequate to serve the long-term needs of this area.
