Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 15 / Monday, January 25, 2010 / Notices 3955 

for a six-month period beginning 

October 1, 2008 and ending on March 

31, 2010. The FAA’s expenditure 

authority from the Airport and Airway 

Trust Fund will also expire on March 

31, 2010, in the absence of an additional 

statutory extension. Therefore, to avoid 

the risk of not being able to carryover 

funds if an additional extension is not 

enacted, and to allow sufficient time for 

accounting processing, AIP funds 

should be obligated in FAA’s 

accounting records on or before March 

3, 2010. 

Sponsors have three options available 

regarding AIP grants during this period. 

First, sponsors may elect to make an 

application for a grant based on 

entitlements currently available to them. 

Sponsors that elect to take such a grant 

must submit grant applications to the 

FAA no later than February 26, 2010, in 

order to meet the March 3, 2010 

obligation deadline. Second, sponsors 

may elect to wait until after the 

February 22, 2010 notification date for 

protection of carryover entitlements. 

However, if a sponsor does not declare 

their intention regarding the use of 

fiscal year 2010 entitlement funds by 

the February 22, 2010 deadline, FAA 

will be unable to take the necessary 

actions to designate these as ‘‘protected’’ 

carryover funds. In addition, these 

funds would not be carried over without 

a legislative enactment that provides 

additional AIP authorization for fiscal 

year 2010 and extends the FAA’s 

spending authority from the Airport and 

Airway Trust Fund beyond March 31, 

2010. Third, sponsors may elect to 

declare their intention to carryover the 

entitlements by sending written 

notification of such intention by 

February 22, 2010. Unused carryover 

entitlements that have been deferred 

will be available in fiscal year 2011 

pending legislative action to further 

extend authorization and 

appropriations. 

If a statutory extension beyond March 

31, 2010 of the AIP program and the 

FAA’s authority to make expenditures 

from the Trust Fund is enacted, 

additional entitlement funds may be 

available to sponsors. In that case, 

airport sponsors who did not previously 

declare their intention to carryover the 

entitlements must provide a written 

indication by May 1, 2010 to the 

designated Airports District Office (or 

Regional Office in regions without 

Airports District Offices) that they will 

either carryover or use their fiscal year 

2010 entitlements by submitting a grant 

application by August 1, 2010.

2010.

AGENCY: Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of Intent. 

SUMMARY: The FHWA is issuing this 

notice to advise the public that an 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

will be prepared for a proposed 

transportation improvement project in 

Davis and Weber Counties, Utah. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ed 

Woolford, Environmental Program 

Manager or Paul Ziman, Area Manager,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

FHWA, in cooperation with UDOT, will 

prepare an EIS on a proposal to address 

projected transportation demand in 

western Davis and Weber Counties. 

Although the exact limits of the study 

area have not been defined, the 

transportation needs that will be 

evaluated in the proposal extend 

northward from about Parrish Lane (400 

South) in Centerville in Davis County to 

about 1200 South in Marriott-Slaterville 

in Weber County. The eastern limits of 

the study area extend to I–15 and the 

western limit will be just east of the 

Great Salt Lake. 

To provide for local and regional 

travel demands, the regional 

transportation plan developed by the 

local Metropolitan Planning 

Organization, Wasatch Front Regional 

Council (WFRC), has identified the need 

for an improved transportation system 

in the study area. Alternatives under 

consideration include (1) Taking noaction (no-build); (2) transportation 

system management/travel demand 

management; and (3) build alternatives. 

A multi-modal evaluation of 

transportation improvements in the 

corridor will be the focus of the study. 

Transportation build alternatives to be 

studied include, but are not limited to: 

(1) Collector roadway; (2) freeway; (3) 

arterial roadway; (4) transit; (5) 

combinations of any of the above; and 

(6) other feasible alternatives identified 

during the scoping process. 

Letters describing the proposed action 

and soliciting comments will be sent to 

appropriate Federal, State, and local 

agencies, and to private organizations 

and citizens who have previously 

expressed or are known to have interest 

in this proposal. A series of public 

scoping meetings will be held in the 

study area from 4:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. as 

follows: February 23, 2010, at Syracuse 

High School, 665 South 2000 West, 

Syracuse, UT; February 24, 2010, at 

Davis County Legacy Events Center 

(Davis County Fairgrounds) at 151 

South 1100 West, Farmington, UT; and, 

February 25, 2010, at West Weber 

Elementary School, 4178 West 900 

South, Ogden, UT. Public notices 

announcing these meetings will be 

published in the region. Information 

regarding this meeting and the project 

may also be obtained through a public 

Web site, http://www.udot.utah.gov/ 

westdavis. In addition to the public 

scoping meetings, public hearings will 

be held after the draft EIS has been 

prepared. The draft EIS will be available 

for public and agency review and 

comment before the public hearing. 

To ensure that a full range of issues 

related to the proposed action are 

addressed and all significant issues 

identified, comments and suggestions 

are invited from all interested parties. 

Comments or questions concerning the 

proposed action and the EIS should be 

directed to the FHWA at the address 

provided above by March 22, 2010.
