The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Western Federal Lands (WFL), U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service (Forest Service), City and Borough of Juneau (CBJ), and the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (ADOT&PF) comprise the Social, Economic, and Environmental Team (SEE Team), originally established to select sites for new satellite heliports in the Juneau area. Initial efforts to move the original project forward resulted in significant public opposition to siting heliport(s) at either of the locations recommended in prior noise studies conducted by CBJ in the area. CBJ, based on this extensive public opposition, requested that the earmark funds be used to step back from conducting an environmental study on the Montana Creek and Dupont Sites. City staff asked the SEE Team to undertake a study to assess current public opinion regarding impacts of charter helicopter on the residents and business of Juneau. |
