Authority
The Corps evaluates this application and decides whether to issue, conditionally issue, or deny
the proposed work pursuant to applicable procedures of the following Statutory Authorities:
® Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344)
❑ Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 (33 U.S.C. 403)
❑ Section 103 of the Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act of 1972 (33
U.S.C. 1413)
Location
The project is located on the southern portion of the CLT site, located northwest of the
intersection of West Boulevard with Billy Graham Parkway, in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County,
North Carolina (N 35.204046, W - 80.946237). The project area is adjacent to unnamed
tributaries of Coffey Creek.
Project Area (acres): 10.5 Nearest Town: Charlotte
Nearest Waterway: Coffey Creek River Basin: 03050103
Latitude and Longitude: 35.203758 N, - 80.944415 W
Existing Site Conditions
The topography of the ATCT project study area is characterized as gently sloping with steeper
areas occurring along drainage ways. Elevations range from a high of 700 feet to a low of 650
feet along tributaries. Land use in the study area is characterized by commercial landscapes,
particularly the Charlotte Airport facility. Outside of the airport property, the land is mostly
vacant wooded land or commercial. The project study alternatives are located within the
Catawba (Hydrologic Unit 03050103) River Basin. Streams in the project area are tributaries to
Coffey Creek. Other streams within the airport property drain into Toggart Creek and Tier Creek
(the land on the northwester portion of the airport property including tributaries to Tier Creek,
occur in the Catawba River Basin with Hydrologic Unit 03050101). Aquatic communities in the
study area include both intermittent and perennial piedmont streams. One jurisdictional wetland
adjacent to tributaries of Coffey Creek occurs within the study area.
Applicant's Stated Purpose
The purpose of this project is to replace the existing ATCT facility that no longer provides
adequate coverage of airfield traffic control needs. The existing ATCT structure has been in
service for over 30 years and does not have sufficient height or ground position to provide
required lines of sight across the airfield, particularly with the recent addition of the third parallel
runway at CLT in 2010. Although a newly -sited ATCT would likely support a conceptual forth
10,000 ft parallel runway included in the current airport master plan, the current need for the
proposed ATCT is independent of any future runway expansion.
Proper positioning of the ATCT to provide adequate depth perception, lines of sight, and
visibility of all areas on the airfield is vital for airport traffic control personnel to safely and
efficiently manage aircraft movements. In addition to addressing these emerging visual flight
safety needs, the new ATCT would include provisions for updated digital flight control
components including the TRACON facility. The proposed ATCT would also improve operation
conditions within the control cab including enhanced equipment layout, operating space and
controller station visibility and ergonomics.
Project Description
The proposed project involves the construction of a 370 foot high ATCT, a Terminal Radar
Approach Control (TRACON) building, a 239 space parking lot and access driveway, two
stormwater BMP detention ponds and sewer lines to service facility. The proposed project would
result in impact to 709 linear foot of intermittent stream channel and 0.007 acres of wetlands due
to grading to facilitate the buildings and parking areas.
-2-
It should be noted that the ATCT project is considered to be a single and complete project with
activities that have occurred on the greater Charlotte Airport property. The Corps has issued CLT
two Nationwide Permits #39 (Action IDs 2000 -31354 and 2003 - 30940) and three IPs (Action
IDs 2006 - 32521, 2008 -03090 and 2010- 00837) for activities on the Charlotte Airport Property.
There have also been a total of three permit modifications issued to CLT, two for the permit
issued under Action ID 2006 -32521 and one for the permit issued under Action ID 2008 - 03090.
The total impact authorized under all of these permits is 25,444 linear feet of stream, 4.183 acres
of wetlands, and 7.55 acres of open water. The table below details the permits issued for the
Charlotte Airport Property.

Avoidance and Minimization
The applicant provided the following information in support of efforts to avoid and/or minimize
impacts to the aquatic environment:
The project footprint has been limited to the greatest extent practicable. Stormwater detention
ponds were designed to avoid stream impacts.
Compensatory Mitigation
The applicant offered the following compensatory mitigation plan to offset unavoidable
functional loss to the aquatic environment:
At this time the applicant has proposed no compensatory mitigation be performed to off -set
impacts to intermittent streams. The applicant has requested that compensatory mitigation be
waived for the project on the basis that the intermittent streams proposed for impact originate
from stormwater runoff, drain a small watershed area (approximately 14 acres) and the streams
have low habitat. The applicant further cites as justification to waive mitigation their conclusion
that the groundwater connection to the streambed is primarily a result of bank erosion and
channel incision and that the stream substrate contains mostly an aggregation of silt and sand.
Essential Fish Habitat
Pursuant to the Magnuson- Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, this Public
Notice initiates the Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) consultation requirements. The Corps' initial
determination is that the proposed project would not effect EFH or associated fisheries managed
by the South Atlantic or Mid Atlantic Fishery Management Councils or the National Marine
Fisheries Service.
Cultural Resources
Pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, Appendix C of 33
CFR Part 325, and the 2005 Revised Interim Guidance for Implementing Appendix C, the
District Engineer consulted district files and records and the latest published version of the
National Register of Historic Places and initially determines that:
❑ Should historic properties, or properties eligible for inclusion in the National Register, be
present within the Corps' permit area; the proposed activity requiring the DA permit (the
undertaking) is a type of activity that will have no potential to cause an effect to an
historic properties.
® No historic properties, nor properties eligible for inclusion in the National Register, are
present within the Corps' permit area; therefore, there will be no historic properties
affected. The Corps subsequently requests concurrence from the SHPO (or THPO).
❑ Properties ineligible for inclusion in the National Register are present within the Corps'
permit area; there will be no historic properties affected by the proposed work. The Corps
subsequently requests concurrence from the SHPO (or THPO).
❑ Historic properties, or properties eligible for inclusion in the National Register, are
present within the Corps' permit area; however, the undertaking will have no adverse
effect on these historic properties. The Corps subsequently requests concurrence from the
SHPO (or THPO).
❑ Historic properties, or properties eligible for inclusion in the National Register, are
present within the Corps' permit area; moreover, the undertaking may have an adverse
effect on these historic properties. The Corps subsequently initiates consultation with the
SHPO (or THPO).
❑ The proposed work takes place in an area known to have the potential for the presence of
prehistoric and historic cultural resources; however, the area has not been formally
surveyed for the presence of cultural resources. No sites eligible for inclusion in the
National Register of Historic Places are known to be present in the vicinity of the
proposed work. Additional work may be necessary to identify and assess any historic or
prehistoric resources that may be present.
The District Engineer's final eligibility and effect determination will be based upon coordination
with the SHPO and/or THPO, as appropriate and required, and with full consideration given to
the proposed undertaking's potential direct and indirect effects on historic properties within the
Corps- indentified permit area.

Endangered Species
Pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973, the Corps reviewed the project area, examined
all information provided by the applicant and consulted the latest North Carolina Natural
Heritage Database. Based on available information:
® The Corps determines that the proposed project would not affect federally listed
endangered or threatened species or their formally designated critical habitat.
❑ The Corps determines that the proposed project may affect federally listed endangered or
threatened species or their formally designated critical habitat. The Corps initiates
consultation under Section 7 of the ESA and will not make a permit decision until the
consultation process is complete.
❑ The Corps is not aware of the presence of species listed as threatened or endangered or
their critical habitat formally designated pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973
(ESA) within the project area. The Corps will make a final determination on the effects of
the proposed project upon additional review of the project and completion of any
necessary biological assessment and /or consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service and/or National Marine Fisheries Service.
Other Required Authorizations
The Corps forwards this notice and all applicable application materials to the appropriate State
agencies for review.
North Carolina Division of Water Resources ( NCDWR): The Corps will generally not make
a final permit decision until the NCDWR issues, denies, or waives the state Certification as
required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (PL 92 -500). The receipt of the application and
this public notice, combined with the appropriate application fee, at the NCDWR Central Office
in Raleigh constitutes initial receipt of an application for a 401 Certification. A waiver will be
deemed to occur if the NCDWR fails to act on this request for certification within sixty days of
receipt of a complete application. Additional information regarding the 401 Certification may be
reviewed at the NCDWR Central Office, 401 and Buffer Permitting Unit, 512 North Salisbury

Project Description
Proposed Charlotte - Douglas International Airport
Airport Traffic Control Tower /Terminal Radar Approach Control Facility
Charlotte, Mecklenberg County, North Carolina
October 10, 2014
INTRODUCTION
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposes to construct a new Airport Traffic
Control Tower (ATCT) and Terminal Radar Approach Control ( TRACON) base building at
the Charlotte - Douglas International Airport (CLT) located in Charlotte, Mecklenberg
County, North Carolina. The new FAA owned and operated facility will replace the existing
ATCT and TRACON which were commissioned in 1977 and 1979 respectively by the FAA.
The proposed ATCT / TRACON site is located on the south side of Hangar Road, west of
Yorkmont Road. The FAA ATCT / TRACON project is independent of other projects at the
CLT Airport.
The existing tower cab is approximately 575 square feet (sf) with a floor height of 150 feet
(ft) above ground level (AGL). The existing TRACON/base building is approximately
21,000 sf. Additional air traffic controller positions were added in 2010 which included one
to the ATCT and three to the Terminal Radar Approach Control ( TRACON). In addition to
supporting CLT, the TRACON also provides service to Concord Regional Airport (JQF) and
Hickory Regional Airport (HKY) ATCTs. JQF is the 5th busiest airport in North Carolina,
which services a large number of NASCAR teams.
In Fiscal Year 2011 the Secretary of Department of Transportation (DOT) made a
commitment to the airport sponsor that the FAA will support the replacement of the existing
facility.
PROJECT NEED
The existing ATCT cab is inadequate for current operations and necessary equipment
upgrades. The new ATCT will be designed as an Major Activity Level ATCT to enhance
safety and efficiency by providing adequate depth perception, line of sight, and visibility of
all movement and non - movement areas at the airport. The new ATCT cab will be
approximately 850 sf in size with a floor height of 335 ft AGL and provide the following
essential improvements:
• improve visibility of airport surface;
• eliminate tower cab overcrowding of current operational equipment and positions;
• increase base building size for operational and administrative requirements; and
• provide adequate parking for all stationed staff and to accommodate shift changes,
and visitor parking.
The existing TRACON /base building is overcrowded for the existing staff. The
overcrowding extends to the available parking and during training days there are
Proposed CLT ATCT / TRACON Facility
significantly more vehicles than parking spaces available. The new TRACON base building
will house the TRACON, maintenance and facility equipment, and the Air Traffic
Management District Office. Additionally, the base building will house three System
Support Centers (SSC), and their respective personnel; these functions need to be co- located
for logistics purposes, including operations and training. The new TRACON base building
will be approximately 42,000 gross sf.
PROJECT LOCATION
The proposed ATCT and TRACON/base building site is located approximately 1,000 ft west
of Yorkmont Road on the south side of Hangar Road. The project site encompasses
approximately 10 acres, and is located in Charlotte, Mecklenberg County, North Carolina.
The proposed new ATCT site coordinates are:
• Latitude 35'12'14.28"N
• Longitude: 80° 56' 35.76 "W
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The CLT ATCT / TRACON replacement project includes Next Generation (NextGen)
technology that enables safe and efficient airport operations. The proposed FAA owned and
operated facility will include a lease area of approximately 10 acres. The primary features of
the new ATCT will include:
• the new ATCT
• a new TRACON base building
• 239 parking spaces (7 handicap spaces) and 6 motorcycle
• perimeter security fence
• security guard booth
• access roads to accommodate tractor trailers and emergency vehicles (e.g., fire
trucks) access to all sides of the building
• dual emergency generators and uninterruptible power supply system
• exterior fuel tank
Additional description of the proposed ATCT / TRACON and associated features are provided
in the following paragraphs:
• Proposed site work includes fill placement and construction of a new one -story
TRACON/base building and ATCT.
• The ATCT will be situated adjacent to the base building and connected via an
enclosed building link. The tower shaft will be constructed of pre -cast concrete
panels forming non - functional shaft supporting a 16 -sided steel cab approximately
850 sf in size.
• A total of 239 parking spaces are proposed, along with associated driveways, which
are located the minimum distance from the buildings to meet FAA security
requirements.
Proposed CLT ATCT / TRACON Facility 2
• Concrete walkways will be provided for access to parking areas. A paved walking
trail for use by the occupants and for security inspections to the fenceline will be
installed around the perimeter of the property, inside the fence.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS OVERVIEW
Alternative locations for the new ATCT and alternative designs were considered. To address
procedural requirements, the no -build or no action alternative was also considered. The
following sections describe these two types of alternatives and provide justification for the
selected alternative.
LOCATION ALTERNATIVES
Six sites were evaluated covering each quadrant of the airport and three preferred sites were
selected for the Comparative Safety Analysis, which took place during the ATCT siting
process at the FAA's Airport Facilities Terminal Integration Laboratory ( AFTIL). The siting
review evaluated a number of factors, including visibility performance requirements, Federal
laws, regulations, orders and standards that pertain to the siting of an ATCT, and operational
requirements. All six sites were initially discussed and evaluated at the AFTIL I site visit,
July 19, 2011. During the AFTIL I site evaluation, Sites 3, 4, and 6 were eliminated, and
Sites 1, 2, and 2A were determined suitable for a more detailed evaluation. Site 3 did not
provide a satisfactory view of thresholds 18R and 18L traffic issues. Site 4 required an AGL
eye level of 500 ft and was rejected due to excessive height. Site 6 had several issues
including unsatisfactory view of thresholds 18R and 18L problem areas, the view of Taxiway
S was blocked by the fire station, and the height would need to be increased substantially to
view operations on Taxiway C. In addition to these pre - identified sites, other sites were also
evaluated during the AFTIL 1.
Sites 1, 2, and 2A were further evaluated during the AFTIL II study, which occurred January
23 through January 27, 2012. Upon further evaluation, potential wetlands were identified on
Site 1. No initial environmental issues were identified on Site 2 and 2A, resulting in Site 2A
becoming the prefered site. Conceptual plans were drawn for the three selected sites and
further analyzed before selecting the preferred site, Site 2A. Site 2 as well as Site 2A are
located adjacent to a high - voltage powerline, requiring that the high - voltage powerline be
relocated underground. It was determined that moving Site 2A an additional 50 feet to the
west would eliminate the necessity for relocating the power line. The new position was
designated Site 2B.
The AFTIL II evaluation included determining requisite eye level elevations in order to meet
the visual requirements of FAA Order 6480.4A, as well as determining potential obstructions
as defined in Federal Aviation Regulations Part 77. The analysis for each site initially
examined the "eye level elevation" required for each location based on the runway visibility
without regard to obstructions. Each site was then analyzed for height requirements based on
existing obstructions between the proposed ATCT site and movement areas. Ground
elevations and building heights were ascertained from the 3D Airport Layout Plan (ALP)
provided by AFTIL.

Copies of the approved Siting Report, Environmental Due Diligence Audit and
Environmental Assessment for the project are are provided in the appendix. Please refer to
these document(s) for a thorough assessment of the location alternatives and justification for
the selected alternative.
