SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Alaska Department of Transportation 

and Public Facilities (DOT&PF) has 

requested funding and approval from 

the FAA for a new land-based airport 

and an access road to improve the 

availability and reliability of 

transportation services to and from 

Angoon. The DOT&PF’s proposed action 

would be located in the Admiralty 

Island National Monument and 

Kootznoowoo Wilderness Area 

(Monument-Wilderness Area). The FAA 

has proposed alternatives to the 

proposed action, including the no action 

alternative. The purpose and need for 

the airport are discussed in detail in the 

Final EIS. 

The project would consist of a paved, 

3,300-foot-long and 75-foot-wide 

runway, with future expansion to 4,000 

feet long. 

Construction of the proposed airport 

would be completed in two to three 

construction seasons. Many of the 

impact categories considered in the 

Final EIS are required by FAA Orders 

1050.1E and 5050.4B. In addition, 

subsistence activities, wilderness 

character, and impacts to the Admiralty 

Island National Monument are 

evaluated. Because the DOT&PF’s 

proposed action is located in the 

Monument-Wilderness Area, the 

DOT&PF has submitted an application 

to the FAA, the U.S. Forest Service, and 

the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers under 

ANILCA Title XI to use the lands. The 

federal agencies have drafted findings 

and a notification of tentative 

disapproval of the application. At this 

time, no notification will be sent to the 

President pending discussions with the 

sponsor and the cooperating agencies on 

next steps. 

Additional details regarding the 

project can be found on the project Web 

site at www.angoonairporteis.com.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In its

system it is implementing is designed as 

a vital overlay PTC system as defined in 

49 CFR 236.1015(e)(2). The PTCSP 

describes UP’s I–ETMS implementation 

and the associated I–ETMS safety 

processes, safety analyses, and test, 

validation, and verification processes 

used during development of I–ETMS. 

The PTCSP also contains UP’s 

operational and support requirements 

and procedures. 

UP’s PTCSP and the accompanying 

request for approval and system 

certification are available for review 

online at www.regulations.gov (Docket 

No. FRA–2010–0061) and in person at

comments or data submitted. However, 

FRA may elect not to respond to any 

particular comment and, under 49 CFR 

236.1009(d)(3), FRA maintains the 

authority to approve or disapprove the 

PTCSP at its sole discretion. FRA does 

not anticipate scheduling a public 

hearing regarding UP’s PTCSP because 

the circumstances do not appear to 

warrant a hearing. If any interested 

party desires an opportunity for oral 

comment, the party should notify FRA 

in writing before the end of the 

comment period and specify the basis 

for his or her request.
