H) Public and Agency Coordination Materials Short Form Environmental Assessment Page 3 Revision: 2007-10-01 A 5. Proposed Development Action (describe ALL associated action that can be deemed one complete project): The St. Clair County Public Building Commission (PBC) proposes to lease MidAmerica St. Louis Airport (BLV or Airport) property for the construction and operation of an aviation development with airfield access. The proposed project would revise the Airport Layout Plan (ALP) approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on August 31, 2010 (2010 Approved ALP).1 As shown on Exhibit 1, the location of the proposed project is previously disturbed, undeveloped land southeast of Airport Boulevard and southwest of Illinois Route 4. The proposed project area is approximately 235 acres and includes rights-of-way along IL Route 4 for intersection improvements at Airport Boulevard and the proposed entrance to the project. The proposed aviation development would be constructed on approximately 34 acres of Airport property and would include multiple structures, paved parking lot, new taxiway for access to the proposed development, utility extensions, and access to IL Route 4 (refer to Exhibits 1 and 2). The proposed aviation development would support the production of aircraft and flight testing/operations. Airport property would be leased to the tenant, which would be a source of revenue for the Airport. The proposed aviation development would include a range of 5 to 8 metal-sided structures to be used for aircraft manufacturing, painting, and storage, and office, maintenance, and support spaces. Structure heights would be a maximum of 70 feet. The proposed project would include construction/installation of: • Main aircraft manufacturing facility—approximately 200,000 square feet (SF) • Aircraft Hangar—up to approximately 40,000 SF with 3 indoor aircraft parking positions • Paint Hangar—30,000 SF • Aircraft Shelter—16,000 SF • Miscellaneous support structures—up to 10,000 SF for each structure; maximum total for all structures of 40,000 SF • Paved parking lot—200,000 SF with up to 500 spaces • Apron pavement—200,000 SF with 4 outdoor aircraft parking positions • Taxiway— approximately 362,000 SF; 3,000 linear feet designed to accommodate Aircraft Design Group IV with taxiway bridge over Crooked Creek • Dry Detention Basin—vegetated, dry bottom basin approximately 163,000 SF (3.7 acres) • Paved Airport service road— approximately 84,000 SF; 3,500 linear feet, 24 feet wide • Security fence—would be installed around the perimeter of the proposed aviation development, approximately 3,500 linear feet, 8 feet tall The proposed aviation development would operate 5 days per week with three 8-hour shifts for up to 400 employees, 250 employees for production and 150 employees for support. The proposed aviation development, connector taxiway, and Airport service road, would have approximately 27 acres of impervious surface. 1 The ALP was submitted to the FAA June 1, 2010 and approved August 31, 2010. Short Form Environmental Assessment Page 4 Revision: 2007-10-01 A In conformance with Section 163 of the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018, a determination on the ability of the FAA to take federal actions on the proposed project was completed in December 2020. The FAA retains ALP authority over the elements of the proposed project dealing with the direct manufacturing of aircraft (i.e., aircraft manufacturing facility, hangars, and shelters), that may impact the safe and efficient operation of aircraft (i.e., dry detention basin partially within the runway protection zone (RPZ) for Runway 14L-32R), and airfield improvements (i.e., taxiway). The FAA does not have authority over those elements of the proposed project that are considered non-aeronautical, which includes the Airport service road, parking, roadwork, and other buildings not housing aircraft (i.e., support structures and guard shack). Because the non-aeronautival elements of the proposed project would not be constructed without the aircraft manufacturing facilites and airfield improvement elements of the proposed project, they are being evaluated in this environmental assessment pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Construction is proposed to begin in second quarter 2021 and anticipated to be complete by the end of 2022 with aircraft manufacturing commencing in second quarter 2023. 6. Purpose of and Need for the Project: The purpose of the proposed project is to develop a manufacturing facility that

  • U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Railroad Administration
    U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Railroad Administration FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT Girard Siding and Track Construction Project Milepost (MP) 205.75 to MP 214.52, Macoupin County, Illinois June 2013 Introduction: The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) proposes to undertake construction of a siding track along the mainline service line of the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) and various track improvements between Milepost (MP) 205.75 to MP 214.52 in Macoupin County (the Project). This Project will create an 8.77 mile parallel siding track from Virden to Nilwood, Illinois and passing through Girard. The siding track has been evaluated in an Environmental Assessment (EA) prepared by IDOT to analyze and document whether the Project has significant effects on the environment. The EA also addresses improvements to signalization and at-grade rail-roadway crossings and reconstruction of the mainline track. The Project is part of the Chicago-St. Louis High-Speed Rail Corridor Project (Original Project). For the Original Project, IDOT identified 22 miles of freight sidings in a final environmental impact statement (Final EIS). However, the exact locations of the sidings were not determined and no siding improvements in Macoupin County were proposed or assumed. The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) issued a Record of Decision (ROD), dated January 8, 2004, which selected the Preferred Alternative as described in the Original Project Final EIS, and adopted an incremental approach to upgrading the line to support 110-mph high speed rail (HSR) service using the existing Chicago–St. Louis Amtrak route. FRA must comply with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 (42 USC § 4321) as the Federal agency providing grant funding for the Project.

  • Stage Coach Inn, Rare 2-Story Log Building a Macoupin County Historical Treasure
    Stage Coach Inn, Rare 2-Story Log Building A Macoupin County Historical Treasure Don Eichen & Frank R. Masters, 11-29-12 Overview About a mile north of the Carlinville, Illinois town square, on North Broad Street (a portion of the original Route 66), is a pricelessly-rare, two-story log building that is hard-wired to Macoupin county early history. The building, one of the earliest in the county, was built in 1835 about 3 miles southeast of Carlinville to comfort stagecoach travelers stranded when the Macoupin Creek would flood the stagecoach road (to become Route 66) connecting Springfield, via Carlinville, to the then state capital of Vandalia. A small settlement eventually grew around the inn, and became known as “Weatherford’s Prairie”, in reference to Jefferson Weatherford, one of the area’s earliest settlers, builder of the inn, and owner of 80 acres around it. Weatherford went on to become a Macoupin County Sherriff, A Lieutenant in the conflict with the Black Hawk Indians, a bodyguard of the Illinois Governor, and a renowned Texas State Senator and businessman. He also built Carlinville’s first courthouse, 40 years before the “million dollar” version. “Weatherford’s Prairie” went on to become one of the county’s first “vanished communities”. In 1836, Weatherford sold (at a $5,525 profit in nine months), the inn and the 80 acres, to T. P. Hoxey, another of the area’s earliest settlers, and a member of the very first Macoupin county Commissioners Court. The log building became known as “Hoxey’s Inn”. President Lincoln was rumored to have stayed there as a young (mid-20’s) traveling circuit lawyer.
