CORRECTING AIRPORT EXPANSION PROCEDURAL ERRORS

1.  Explain how government maintains and improves quality of life for residents and protects taxpayers from unwanted and undesirable effects of airport expansion? 

2.  Is there a permanent non-partisan committee that produces detailed and necessary reports to stakeholders concerning proposed changes in Philadelphia International Airport (The Airport) that affects them; if not why not?  

3.  Explain how the voices of stakeholders, elected federal officials, state legislators and municipalities will influence FAA and The Airport in their decisions to improve quality of life and safety and diminish nuisances of noise and  pollution in the county?  Are quarterly reports provided? 

4.  Explain whether the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), which requires balancing of the environmental quality and economic impact,  has been applied to Runway 17-35 Extension and Capacity Enhancement(sic) Expansion  and Airspace Redesign in its entirety when federal money pays for any airport improvements?  Has NEPA been subverted by applying it separately to each phase?  If NEPA has been violated, how will it be corrected? 

5. Why is Airspace Restructuring not contested in eastern Delaware County along with the proposed changes in southwestern Delaware County when the very existence of an extended Runway 17-35 with its increased capacity would redesign its airspace?

6.  Will a comprehensive Environmental Impact Statement and Economic Benefit/Cost Analysis be conducted on the entire Runway 17-35 Extension, Airport Capacity Enhancement Program and Airspace Redesign as it affects not only the Airport, but also the extended area particularly in Delaware County that will be impacted?
                            

7.  Explain when a suit will be filed that includes Runway 17-35 extension and  stop-work injunctive relief for not including it as part of Capacity Enhancement Program and Airspace Redesign.
