DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Aviation Administration 

Cancellation of the Preparation of an 

Air Tour Management Plan and 

Environmental Assessment for 

Kalaupapa National Historical Park, 

Molokai, HI 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration, DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of cancellation of 

preparation of an Air Tour Management 

Plan and Environmental Assessment. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) announces that it 

will no longer prepare an Air Tour 

Management Plan (ATMP) and 

Environmental Assessment (EA) for 

commercial air tour operations over 

Kalaupapa National Historical Park 

(NHP), at Molokai, Hawaii. The FAA 

has stopped work on preparation of the 

ATMP and EA based upon no further 

operating authority interest by 

commercial air tour operators who had 

been granted Interim Operating 

Authority to conduct commercial air 

tour operations over the park unit and 

there are no new entrant requests to 

conduct commercial air tour operations. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Peter F. Ciesla, Program Manager, AWP–

4, Federal Aviation Administration, 

Western-Pacific Region, P.O. Box 92007, 

Los Angeles, California 90009–2007. 

Telephone: (310) 725–3818. E-mail: 

Pete.Ciesla@faa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

February 2004, the FAA in cooperation 

with the National Park Service (NPS) 

initiated development of an ATMP for 

Kalaupapa NHP, pursuant to the 

National Parks Air Tour Management 

Act of 2000 (Public Law 106–181) and 

its implementing regulations contained 

in Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations, 

part 136, National Parks Air Tour 

Management. The ATMP process for 

Kalaupapa NHP was initiated based on 

receipt of applications for Operating 

Authority from existing commercial air 

tour operators to conduct commercial 

air tour operations over this park unit. 

In accordance with the Act and 

Regulations, the FAA issued Interim 

Operating Authority for these 

commercial air tour operators to 

conduct air tours over the park. The 

FAA and NPS also began preparing an 

EA to comply with the National 

Environmental Policy Act, which 

requires Federal agencies to consider 

the environmental issues associated 

with a Federal action. The FAA had 

been notified by the commercial air tour 

operators that had requested Operating 

Authority, that they are no longer 

conducting commercial air tour 

operations over Kalaupapa NHP, 

indicating their intent not to conduct 

commercial air tours below 5,000 feet 

above ground level over or within onehalf mile of this park unit. The FAA has 

removed the Interim Operating 

Authority from the Operations 

Specifications for these commercial air 

tour operators to conduct commercial 

air tour operations over the park. Since 

there are no existing commercial air tour 

operators nor any new entrants seeking 

to conduct commercial air tour 

operations over Kalaupapa NHP, the 

FAA has determined that the purpose 

and need for an ATMP no longer exist. 

The FAA has decided to stop work and 

discontinue preparation of the ATMP 

and EA for Kalaupapa NHP.

and widen Runway 9R–27L, shorten 

Runway 13–31, construct associated 

taxiway improvements, and relocate the 

Very High Frequency Omni-Directional
