Notice of Availability of Final Environmental Assessment with a 
Finding of No Significant Impact and Record of Decision (FONSI/ROD) for 
the Midwest Airspace Enhancement (MASE) Project

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Notice of Availability of the MASE Final Environmental 
Assessment with FONSI/ROD.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Central Terminal 
Service Area, is issuing this notice to advise the public of the 
availability of the Final Environmental Assessment Final (EA) and 
FONSI/ROD for the MASE project.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Annette Davis, Federal Aviation 
Administration, Central Terminal Operations Service Area, 2300 East 
Devon Avenue, Des Plaines, Illinois 60018, (847) 294-8091 or MASE Web 
site, http://www.faa.gov/ats/nar/mase.htm. Exit Disclaimer

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The MASE project would implement new en 
route and terminal airspace procedures to increase efficiency and 
enhance safety of aircraft movements in the airspace overlying and 
beyond the Cleveland and Detroit Metropolitan areas. The MASE airspace 
redesign would integrate high-altitude and en route airspace changes 
with low-altitude terminal airspace changes to provide for a more 
seamless operation between the two airspace areas. In addition, MASE 
would allow for more efficient utilization of the runway configurations 
at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County and Cleveland Hopkins 
International airports. Overall, MASE would maintain safety while 
reducing delays, accommodating growth, and incorporating new technology.
