Notice of Floodplain Encroachment for the Proposed Development at Cincinnati Municipal Airport - Lunken Field, Cincinnati, Ohio

Notice of Floodplain Encroachment for the Proposed Development at Cincinnati Municipal Airport - Lunken Field, Cincinnati, Ohio Cincinnati Municipal Airport - Lunken Field (LUK) is proposing the reconstruction of a fuel truck road. The reconstruction would include the removal and replacement of approximately 1,000 feet of pavement. The environmental review, consultation, and other actions have been carried out according to FAA Order 1050.1G. Per Order 1050.1G and Executive Order 11988, Floodplain Management, LUK and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) have determined the proposed project is located within the 100-year floodplain. However, the project would not change the flow of water or the airport's ability to manage flood waters as the project would tie into existing drainage infrastructure, a component of the existing airport-wide stormwater management system. Therefore, impacts on the floodplain are anticipated to be negligible. The encroachment will not impact existing infrastructure, will not have adverse impacts to the floodplain's natural and beneficial values, will not have a high probability of loss of human life, safe airport operations will not be affected, and aircraft services will not be interrupted. As the new facility is airfield dependent, there is no practicable alternative for locating the project outside of the floodplain.
