Introduction and Executive Summary Consistent with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA, Public Resources Code §21000 et seq.) and the CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations [CCR] Title 14, §15000 et seq.), this Draft Environmental Impact Report (Draft EIR) evaluates the environmental effects of demolishing floors 3 through 10 of the South Field Airport Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) at Oakland International Airport (OAK or Airport) (the Proposed Project). This Draft EIR has been prepared by the Port of Oakland (the Port), the owner and operator of OAK, as the lead agency in conformance with the requirements of CEQA. An Initial Study Checklist was prepared in December 2012 which identified the resource areas that could be subject to significant impacts from the Proposed Project and that would require incorporation of mitigation measures where feasible. Based on a preliminary review of the project site and in consideration of the demolition activities associated with the Proposed Project, the Port determined that potentially significant effects may occur to aesthetics and cultural resources, because the South Field ATCT is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR). As a result, these resources are evaluated further in the Draft EIR. The Port determined that impacts related to hazards and hazardous wastes would be less than significant with mitigation incorporated. Proposed Project impacts related to air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, noise, transportation/traffic, utilities and service systems, and cumulative impacts would be less than significant. The Proposed Project would have no impact on agricultural and forestry resources, biological resources, geology and soils, hydrology and water quality, land use and planning, mineral resources, population and housing, public services, or recreation. Federal, State, regional, and local agencies, as well as the public were afforded an opportunity to comment on the findings of the Initial Study Checklist through the 30-day scoping period (December 19, 2012 to January 21, 2013) associated with circulation of the Notice of Preparation (NOP) for this Draft EIR. A public scoping workshop was held on South Field Airport Traffic Control Tower Demolition Draft EIR [1-1] OAKLAND INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT MARCH 2013 [DRAFT] January 7,

    AIRLINE ALLIANCES by Paul Stephen Dempsey Director, Institute of Air & Space Law McGill University Copyright © 2008 by Paul Stephen Dempsey Before Alliances, there was Pan American World Airways . and Trans World Airlines. Before the mega- Alliances, there was interlining, facilitated by IATA Like dogs marking territory, airlines around the world are sniffing each other's tail fins looking for partners." Daniel Riordan “The hardest thing in working on an alliance is to coordinate the activities of people who have different instincts and a different language, and maybe worship slightly different travel gods, to get them to work together in a culture that allows them to respect each other’s habits and convictions, and yet work productively together in an environment in which you can’t specify everything in advance.” Michael E. Levine “Beware a pact with the devil.” Martin Shugrue Airline Motivations For Alliances • the desire to achieve greater economies of scale, scope, and density; • the desire to reduce costs by consolidating redundant operations; • the need to improve revenue by reducing the level of competition wherever possible as markets are liberalized; and • the desire to skirt around the nationality rules which prohibit multinational ownership and cabotage. Intercarrier Agreements · Ticketing-and-Baggage Agreements · Joint-Fare Agreements · Reciprocal Airport Agreements · Blocked Space Relationships · Computer Reservations Systems Joint Ventures · Joint Sales Offices and Telephone Centers · E-Commerce Joint Ventures · Frequent Flyer Program Alliances · Pooling Traffic & Revenue · Code-Sharing Code Sharing The term "code" refers to the identifier used in flight schedule, generally the 2-character IATA carrier designator code and flight number. Thus, XX123, flight 123 operated by the airline XX, might also be sold by airline YY as YY456 and by ZZ as ZZ9876.

  • The Development of the Major Commercial Airlines : Tequesta
    The Development of the Major Commercial Airlines in Dade County, Florida: 1945-1970 By AURORA E. DAVIS* The prosperity of Dade County is built in a large measure around tourism. In fact, tourism is Greater Miami's largest single source of in- come, as it contributed, by 1970, over 2.1 billion dollars a year to the area's economy. As one of the delivery and departure vehicles for tourists, air transportation, and particularly the commercial aviation industry, as- sumes a position of paramount importance carrying an estimated 60 to 65 per cent of tourists to South Florida. In addition, air transportation has become since World War II a dominant stimulant to the area's eco- nomic expansion. The industry's development and growth have helped provide the stable base for sharp rises in tourism, aviation-oriented enter- prises, and other institutional growth. This study of the development and consequent effect of air transpor- tation on the economy of Dade County and the South Florida area, because of the enormous extent of the subject, is limited to the commercial aviation industry. In particular, it will focus upon the four major airlines serving Miami: Pan American World Airways; Eastern Airlines; National Airlines; and Delta Air Lines. There are other large domestic and international carriers serving Miami, but none have had the local impact of what this author calls "Miami's big four." 1 The aviation history of Dade County can be said to have begun in 1911 when Howard Gill brought a Wright brothers aircraft to Miami. The appearance of this aircraft in July and subsequent favorable reaction on the part of local officials, augured a most beneficial relationship between *This paper is based upon a Master of Arts thesis in history written in 1972 at the Uni- versity of Miami.

Dissertation Advisors: Professor John Stauffer, Professor Carol Oja Aaron Robertson Hatley Tin Lizzie Dreams: Henry Ford and Antimodern American Culture, 1919-1942 Abstract “Tin Lizzie Dreams: Henry Ford and Antimodern American Culture, 1919-1942” is an interdisciplinary cultural history combining close analyses of print and broadcast media, music and dance, technology, and built environments to argue that Henry Ford, one of the most popular modernizers in American history, actually espoused and popularized a personal philosophy that was distinctly antimodern. “Tin Lizzie Dreams” shows how Henry Ford’s cultural projects, most often discussed as a side item or supplement to his career as an automaker and industrialist, were in fact indicative of an essential antipathy and even resistance toward the modernity he was helping to create through the rise of the Ford Motor Company and Model T. With projects such as the renovation of the Wayside Inn in Sudbury, Massachusetts, and the practice of holding weekly “old fashioned dances” in Dearborn, Ford created a working antimodern philosophy related to that which T.J.

  • Air Travel, Life-Style, Energy Use and Environmental Impact
    Air travel, life-style, energy use and environmental impact Stefan Kruger Nielsen Ph.D. dissertation September 2001 Financed by the Danish Energy Agency’s Energy Research Programme Department of Civil Engineering Technical University of Denmark Building 118 DK-2800 Kgs. Lyngby Denmark http://www.bvg.dtu.dk 2001 DISCLAIMER Portions of this document may be illegible in electronic image products. Images are produced from the best available original document Report BYG DTU R-021 2001 ISSN 1601-2917 ISBN 87-7877-076-9 Executive summary This summary describes the results of a Ph.D. study that was carried out in the Energy Planning Group, Department for Civil Engineering, Technical University of Denmark, in a three-year period starting in August 1998 and ending in September 2001. The project was funded by a research grant from the Danish Energy Research Programme. The overall aim of this project is to investigate the linkages between energy use, life style and environmental impact. As a case of study, this report investigates the future possibilities for reducing the growth in greenhouse gas emissions from commercial civil air transport, that is passenger air travel and airfreight. The reason for this choice of focus is that we found that commercial civil air transport may become a relatively large energy consumer and greenhouse gas emitter in the future. For example, according to different scenarios presented by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), commercial civil air transport's fuel burn may grow by between 0,8 percent a factor of 1,6 and 16 between 1990 and 2050. The actual growth in fuel consumption will depend on the future growth in airborne passenger travel and freight and the improvement rate for the specific fuel efficiency.
