ENVIRONMENTAL OVERVIEW <br />cleared of dense vegetation. There is the potential for 18 federal- and state-threated and endangered <br />species at the Airport. Additionally, there is the potential for 13 migratory birds to be found at the Airport. <br /> Climate <br />Activities that require fuel or power are the primary stationary sources of greenhouse gases (GHGs) at <br />airports. Aircraft and ground access vehicles that are not under the control of an airport, typically generate <br />more GHG emissions than airport controlled sources. The majority of GHG emissions at airports are <br />generated by aircraft and ground service vehicles (GSE). For aircraft and ground access vehicles (GAV), <br />three Kyoto pollutants (CO, CH, and NO) are released as emissions. Aircraft and GAV emissions are <br />242 <br />based on activity information and then multiplied by the appropriate GHG emission factors to determine <br />quantities. <br /> Coastal Resources <br />4 <br />The Airport is not within Oregon Coastal Management Program coastal zone. Additionally, there are no <br />5 <br />Coastal Barrier Resource System (CBRS) segments within Airport property. The closest CBRS segment is <br />over 1,400 miles east of the Airport. <br /> Department of Transportation Section 4(f) <br />The closest Section 4(f) property to the Airport is a city park, Golden Gardens Park, about two miles <br />southeast of the Airport. The closest National Register of Historic Places (NRHP)-listed historic site is the <br />6 <br />Fred E. Chambers House and Grounds, about three miles east of the Airport. Orchard Point Recreational <br />Area, about five miles west of the Airport, is the closest park to the Airport where Land and Water <br />7 <br />Conservation funds have been used. <br /> Farmlands <br />The soils on Airport property are not protected by the Farmlands Protection Policy Act (FPPA). Under <br />Section 523(10)(B) of the FPPA, land identified as urbanized areas by the U.S. Census Bureau are not <br />subject to the provisions of the FPPA. Additionally, the FPPA does not apply to land already committed to <br />urban development, such as airport development (Section 658.2 of the FPPA). <br /> Hazardous Materials, Pollution Prevention, and Solid Waste <br />Aircraft fuel constitutes the largest quantity of hazardous materials stored and consumed at the Airport. <br /> <br />4 <br /> s Coastal Zone Interactive Map. <br />Accessed: http://www.coastalatlas.net/czfinder/, May 2016. <br />5 <br /> U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Coastal Barrier Resources System Mapper. <br />Accessed: http://www.fws.gov/cbra/Maps/Mapper.html, April 2016. <br />6 <br /> U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, NEPAssist, Places, National Register of Historic Places. <br />Accessed: https://nepassisttool.epa.gov/nepassist/nepamap.aspx?wherestr=Eugene+airport, May 2016. <br />7 <br /> U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, Land and Water Conservation Fund, Detailed Listing of Grants Grouped by <br />County, Oregon, Lane.
