The City and County of Henderson, Kentucky have requested Federal Aviation Administration concurrence in a new airport to replace the existing Henderson City-County Airport. This action is precipitated by the proposed construction of an electrical generating facility in the vicinity of the existing airport site. The proponent of the generating facility will construct the replacement airport without cost either to the sponsor or Federal Government in exchange for the present site. The development will consist of the following: Paved Runway (5000 ft x 100 ft) including apron and taxiways; medium intensity lighting system; instrument landing system; terminal building; hangers; 2000 ft x 150 ft cross wind turf landing strip and other miscellaneous items. There will be approximately 30 to 40 scattered trees which must be cleared; increased intermittent noise levels due to occasional operations of small business-jet aircraft; and slightly increased air pollution due to operation of these aircraft and short-term adverse environmental effects associated with normal construction.
