Airport Master Plan Final Environmental Impact Report

Update: On May 1, 2008, the Airport Authority Board certified and adopted the Final EIR.

A component of the Airport Master Plan, the Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is a comprehensive study of all potential impacts on the environment resulting from proposed improvements to San Diego International Airport and enhancements to travel experiences for San Diego County residents and visitors.  It ensures actions being taken are in the best interest of surrounding communities and the environment. 

The Final EIR covers potential impacts on aesthetics, air and water quality, traffic/circulation, archaeological and historical issues, impacts on endangered species, potential noise, the coastal zone, toxic and hazardous issues and all cumulative effects to the environment as well. 

As part of the California Environmental Quality Act, the Final EIR is an objective, full-disclosure report meant to inform the public about any and all possible impacts to the environment and seek input on alternatives to reduce the impacts.
