# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In November 2000, the Indianapolis Airport Authority (IAA) announced its intention to construct a midfield terminal complex and associated development at Indianapolis International Airport. This was previously evaluated in a 1992 Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for Master Plan Development. While the majority of the development elements assessed in the 1992 FEIS have been completed, the midfield terminal complex and associated developments have been constructed. However, there have been a number of steps taken towards the development of the midfield terminal complex and associated developments. FAA determined that it was appropriate for FAA to prepare a Supplemental to the 1992 Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) because the IAA's proposed development contains some modifications from the same development elements proposed and assessed in the 1992 FEIS. This SEIS is being prepared in accordance with requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4332(2)(C).

The Proposed Project consists of a new midfield terminal complex and associated development (relocation of Airport Traffic Control Tower, development of midfield terminal interchange, and construction of cross-field taxiways). It is anticipated that the existing terminal will be closed and demolished. The design for the midfield interchange has been finalized and disclosed as part of the 1995 Federal Highway Administration Draft Environmental Assessment (EA) for Six Points Road Interchange. The SEIS assess the environmental impacts associated with the construction of the midfield interchange at the location provided in the 1995 FHWA EA. Service roads and interior circulation roadways were not specifically defined in the 1992 FEIS as well. This SEIS provides the environmental evaluation of the location of the airfield service and interior circulation roadways.

                    Comments from interested parties on the Final SEIS are encouraged and may be submitted in writing to the FAA at the address listed in section entitled                     **FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.**                     The comment period will close on July 30, 2001. Late comments will be accommodated to the extent possible, depending on the time received during the environmental review process.                

Issued in Des Plaines, Illinois on June 21, 2001.

Manager, Chicago Airports District Office, FAA, Great Lakes Region.
