  • 2019Annual Report
    This document is made available electronically by the Minnesota Legislative Reference Library as part of an ongoing digital archiving project. http://www.leg.state.mn.us/lrl/lrl.asp ANNUAL 2019 REPORT Greetings: While the year 2019 might seem an already distant time in the wake of 2020’s world-changing COVID-19 pandemic, it was a period of tremendous growth in the aviation industry. 0LQQHDSROLV6W3DXO,QWHUQDWLRQDO$LUSRUW 063 HQMR\HGDQRWKHUUHFRUG\HDUVXUSDVVLQJPLOOLRQSDVVHQJHUVIRUWKH¿UVWWLPH International travel reached new heights with new service to Dublin, Mexico City and Seoul. And nearly two dozen new restaurants joined the ranks of MSP’s award-winning concession program. The Metropolitan Airports Commission’s (MAC) reliever airport system also saw an increase in the number of aircraft operations and the number of aircraft based there. Work continued on a multi-year project to expand and modernize Terminal 1’s vintage ticketing and bag claim facilities, and a new 5,000-stall parking ramp took shape in preparation for its 2020 debut. The MAC also began planning and increasing investments in its reliever airports, helping ensure the Twin Cities will continue to enjoy not only the largest, but also we believe the best, airport system in the nation. We’re not alone in holding that opinion. In 2019, for the third consecutive year, Airports Council International named MSP the Best Airport in North America in its size category based on passenger surveys. In short, 2019 was a year of tremendous promise that illustrated the close connection between air transportation and a strong HFRQRP\+LVWRU\KDVVKRZQWKDWDYLDWLRQERWKGULYHVDQGEHQH¿WVIURPHFRQRPLFJURZWK±DQGLWZLOODJDLQZKHQWKHFXUUHQW crisis is behind us.

  • FACT SHEET You May Have Heard
    MAC GA Final Four Community FACT SHEET You may have heard... The 2019 NCAA Final Four is coming to Minnesota. The event is expected to draw thousands of people to the area and the Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC) is preparing its airport facilities to accommodate those traveling by air. Many event-goers traveling to and from the Twin Cities will use commercial airline services at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP); many others will use non-commercial aviation services, like those that operate at the MAC’s general aviation airports. Those airports include: • STP: St. Paul Downtown Airport in St. Paul • ANE: Anoka County-Blaine Airport in Blaine • FCM: Flying Cloud Airport in Eden Prairie • MIC: Crystal Airport in Crystal • LVN: Airlake Airport in Lakeville • 21D: Lake Elmo Airport in Lake Elmo The MAC is preparing to meet the increase in demand while ensuring a high level of service and being mindful of neighboring communities. What you can expect... • During the week leading up to the National Championship game and one day after (April 1-9, 2019), MAC expects to have more aircraft taking off and landing than usual at each of its airports. • We anticipate the highest volume of flights to occur from Wednesday, April 3rd through Tuesday, April 9th. • Federal law allows airplanes and helicopters to land and takeoff at any MAC airport any time of day or night. The MAC anticipates • Corporate jets and turboprop aircraft, like the ones arrivals will peak in pictured, will be used more than normal during the hours leading April 6 all hours of the day and night, including the early up to the Semifinal Saturday morning hours and later into the evening.

  • Aviation Draft
    Chapter 9 Aviation Investment Direction and Plan Overview Aviation connects the Twin Cities region to the rest of the nation and the world beyond. Although federal law does not require that a region's long-range transportation plan include an aviation element, state law defines aviation as a metropolitan system and requires the Council to prepare an aviation system plan. Minnesota Statutes (473.145) directs the Council to prepare a metropolitan development guide that addresses “… the necessity for and location of airports…” More specifically, Minnesota Statutes 473.146, subd. 3.8 requires the Council to adopt a long-range comprehensive transportation policy Plan that includes “a long-range assessment of air transportation trends and factors that may affect airport development in the metropolitan area and policies and strategies that will ensure a comprehensive, coordinated, and timely investigation and evaluation of alternatives for airport development." The Twin Cities Regional Aviation System is a well developed aviation system that requires continued protection, maintenance, and enhancements to support the Twin Cities economy and transportation infrastructure. The Twin Cities region is served by one major airport with commercial air service − Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport − and eight seven reliever airports for general aviation, business and recreational users. Two seaplan bases Two seaplane bases A are are aalso partss of the system.. are two seaplane bases. and a turf runway airport. The airports are classified according to their role within the regional aviation system as a Major, Intermediate, Minor or Special Purpose facility. Most of the system airports are part of the National Plan of Integrated Airports (NPIAS), which makes them eligible for federal and state funding.

  • Baytown Township Groundwater: Public Health Assessment
    Public Health Assessment Baytown Township Groundwater Contamination Site Washington County, Minnesota EPA Facility ID: MND982425209 September 14, 2004 Prepared by: Minnesota Department of Health Under Cooperative Agreement with the Agency For Toxic Substances And Disease Registry FOREWORD This document summarizes public health concerns at a hazardous waste site in Minnesota. It is based on a site evaluation conducted by the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH). For a site evaluation a number of steps are necessary: ! Evaluating exposure: MDH scientists begin by reviewing available information about environmental conditions at the site. The first task is to find out how much contamination is present, where it is found on the site, and how people might be exposed to it. Usually, MDH does not collect its own environmental sampling data. We rely on information provided by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and other government agencies, private businesses, and the general public. ! Evaluating health effects: If there is evidence that people are being exposed—or could be exposed—to hazardous substances, MDH scientists will take steps to determine whether that exposure could be harmful to human health. The report focuses on public health; that is, the health impact on the community as a whole, and is based on existing scientific information. ! Developing recommendations: In the evaluation report, MDH outlines its conclusions regarding any potential health threat posed by a site, and offers recommendations for reducing or eliminating human exposure to contaminants. The role of MDH in dealing with hazardous waste sites is primarily advisory. For that reason, the evaluation report will typically recommend actions to be taken by other agencies—including EPA and MPCA.
