PBIA. 

The FAA encourages the public to 

comment on the scope and content of 

the DEIS. Comments should be as 

specific as possible and address the 

analysis of potential environmental 

impacts and the adequacy of the 

proposed action or merits of alternatives 

and the proposed mitigation. Reviewers 

should organize their comments so they 

are meaningful and make the FAA 

aware of the viewer’s interests and 

concerns using quotations and other 

specific references to the text of the 

DEIS and related documents. Specific 

comments not given during the DEIS 

comment period may not be considered 

if they are raised later in the decision 

making process. This commenting 

procedure is intended to ensure that 

substantive comments and concerns are
