The FAA has become aware that comments we received during the scoping process for the proposed Bob Hope “Hollywood Burbank” Airport Terminal Replacement Project were inadvertently left out of the scoping report for the Draft Environmental Impact Statement, which the FAA released last week. The FAA has reviewed the comments and determined that the majority were similar or identical to other comments that we received from others during the scoping process and are documented in Appendix B – Scoping Report. To view these comments and responses, click here. The FAA will address all substantive comments in the Final EIS.
