The proposed project will impact approximately 1.5 acres of wetlands (no fish streams) by installing security fencing and widening Taxiway F. Approximately 200’ of Taxiway F is paved and marked at 35’ wide; with the remainder paved at 50’ wide. This is non‐standard. DOT&PF proposes widening Taxiway F to a uniform width of 50 feet and widening the embankment as necessary to achieve a 118‐foot safety area width in accordance with FAA standards for Design Group III facilities. In addition, the lack of security fencing around airside facilities in the northeast corner of the airport does not meet current TSA standards. DOT&PF proposes installing security fencing for the lease lots around taxiways E & F and placing fill as required to provide a stable foundation for fence posts and gates. Please see the attached figures. I will call you soon to see if you have any concerns or comments. 1 Cheers, Daniel Daniel De Bord Environmental Analyst Environmental and Water Resources Division 544 4th Avenue, Suite 102 Fairbanks, AK 99701 USKH Inc. main: 907.451.2128 direct: 907.450.1439 Celebrating 40 years www.uskh.com Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn paper = trees This electronic communication (including all attachments) is intended only for the named addressee(s) and may contain confidential information.

The LMR will take 30 days for processing, which includes 20 days for public comment and 5 to 10 days for administration. End of comments. ACTION REQUIRED: None.

I'm sorry about the scanning issue for the signed consultation. I've attached an "all pages" version to this email. As for your request to place geo-fabric down instead of gravel by May 15th, that would be fine.

We anticipate that construction would begin next summer. To avoid impacts to migratory birds, no clearing or fill activities would occur between June 6th and August 5th. In the event that construction needs to begin sooner, best management practices would be followed to avoid impacts to nesting Spectacled Eiders by placing a lift of gravel over the project footprint before May 15th.
