The project proposes to acquire land for runway extension, to clear zone, to construct parallel taxiway, expand apron, install Visual Approach Slope Indicator (VASI), fencing, lighting, and non-directional radio beacon (NDB). Total estimated cost is $103,134.00. There will be a few additional operations by heavy (over 8,000 pounds) twin engine aircraft and a very few by business jet aircraft after completion of the development resulting in a slight increase in noise pollution; however, since there is no one living in the area, there will be no impact. Air pollution from these operations will also slightly increase, but prevailing breezes will rapidly disperse this over large unpopulated areas of farmland and prairie and, therefore, be of no significance. Water pollution will not increase.
