SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: SAFETEA–LU Section 6009 

Phase 2 Implementation Study Survey. 

Background: Section 6009 of the Safe, 

Accountable, Flexible, Efficient 

Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for 

Users (SAFETEA–LU) amended existing 

Section 4(f) legislation to simplify the 

process and approval of projects that 

have only de minimis impacts on lands 

protected by Section 4(f). SAFETEA–LU 

also required the U.S. Department of 

Transportation (U.S. DOT) to 

promulgate regulations to clarify the 

factors to be considered and the 

standards to be applied in determining 

the prudence and feasibility of 

alternatives that avoid uses of Section 

4(f) properties. As mandated in the 

legislation, U.S. DOT conducted a study 

on the implementation of new Section 

4(f) provisions and its amendments 

(herein referred to as Phase I). During 

development of the Phase I study, U.S. 

DOT determined that sufficient 

information would not be available 

during Phase I to adequately evaluate 

the new prudent and feasible standards. 

Based on this fact, along with 

recommendations provided by the 

Transportation Research Board (TRB) on 

strengthening the Phase I findings, U.S. 

DOT is requesting approval to sponsor 

a one-time survey on implementation of 

Section 6009 and its amendments. The 

U.S. DOT and John A. Volpe National 

Transportation Systems Center (Volpe 

Center) have designed the survey and 

will submit the survey plan and its 

associated information collection 

burden to OMB for approval. 

The information collection supports 

the U.S. DOT’s Environmental 

Stewardship Strategic Goal. U.S. DOT 

will be better able to evaluate how 

SAFETEA–LU Section 6009 may 

improve environmental decisionmaking and expedite environmental 

reviews of transportation infrastructure 

projects. The survey will solicit 

information on: (1) The postconstruction effectiveness of impact 

mitigation and avoidance commitments 

adopted as part of projects where a 

Section 4(f) de minimis impact finding 

or Section 4(f) finding under the revised 

Section 4(f) regulations was made; and, 

(2) the processes developed to address 

the Section 4(f) de minimis impacts and 

revise the feasible and prudent 

standards and the efficiencies that may 

result. U.S. DOT will use the results to 

evaluate the effectiveness and any 

resulting efficiencies of SAFETEA–LU 

Section 6009 and its amendments. 

Respondents: The proposed survey 

will be a web-based survey located on 

the Survey Monkey Web site (http:// 

www.surveymonkey.com). Staff 

members at state and local 

transportation agencies and 

transportation authorities, State Historic 

Preservation Offices (SHPO), Federal, 

State and local agencies with 

jurisdiction over park, recreation areas, 

or wildlife and waterfowl refuges, and 

citizen/advocacy groups will be asked to 

complete the survey. U.S. DOT 

estimates that approximately 120 

participants (30 state DOTs, 15 transit 

and other transportation agencies, 25 

SHPOs, 25 park and recreation officials, 

and 25 citizen groups) will complete the 

survey. 

Frequency: This is a one-time 

collection. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: Approximately 20 minutes 

per participant for the one-time survey. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: Approximately 40 hours. 

Public Comments Invited: You are 

asked to comment on any aspect of this 

information collection, including: (1) 

Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the U.S. 

DOT’s performance, including whether 

the information will have practical 

utility; (2) the accuracy of the U.S. 

DOT’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed information collection; (3) 

ways to enhance the quality, usefulness, 

and clarity of the collected information; 

and (4) ways that the burden could be 

minimized, including the use of 

electronic technology, without reducing 

the quality of the collected information. 

The agency will summarize and/or 

include your comments in the request 

for OMB’s clearance of this information 

collection.

Notice of a Finding of No Significant 

Impact (FONSI) and Record of Decision 

(ROD) on a Final Environmental 

Assessment (FEA) for the Proposed 

Federal Action at the Macon County 

Airport, Franklin, NC 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration, DOT. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The FAA is issuing this notice 

to advise the public of the approval of 

a FONSI/ROD on an FEA for a proposed 

Federal action at the Macon County 

Airport, Franklin, NC. The FONSI/ROD 

states that the proposed projects are 

consistent with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and 

will not significantly affect the quality 

of the environment. 

The FEA evaluated Macon County 

Airport’s proposal to extend Runway 7/ 

25 600 feet to a total length of 5,000 feet, 

extend the existing parallel taxiway, and 

construct a 300-foot runway safety area. 

After reviewing the FEA, the FAA has 

determined that project would not 

significantly affect the quality of the 

human environment. Therefore, the 

preparation of an Environmental Impact 

Statement (EIS) is not required. 

The FEA and the FONSI/ROD are 

available for review at:
