The proposed project will upgrade the Eastman - Dodge County Airport so that it will be better able to accomodate additional types of business jets. Plans call for the extension of the existing 4,500 foot by 75 foot runway to 6,000 feet by 100 feet. To carry out the runway expansion, it will be necessary to purchase 144 acres of land in the area around the existing airport property. A 2,700 foot by 120 foot turf crosswind runway will be constructed in an east-northeast, west-southwesterly direction. A total of 62.3 acres will be required for purchase in order to accommodate the crosswind runway with air easement rights necessary over an additional 22.5 acres. It will also be necessary to purchase 5.5 acres of land adjacent to the existing administration area in order to provide additional terminal area facilities at the airport. Also, air easement rights will be needed over 10.5 acres of land fronting State Route 46 and 14 acres of land fronting Old Eastman and Dublin Road to provide the required clearances when the existing runway is expanded. Construction is planned for a taxiway parallel to the existing runway. This taxiway will be located on property already owned by the Airport and hence no additional purchase of land will be necessary for this construction. Environmental impacts are discussed.
