Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport and FedEx Express state the purpose is to relocate local Alaska package sorting operations from the existing FedEx facility at TSAIA to an adjacent area south of Taxiway Uniform at TSAIA, including construction of an aircraft ramp to support feeder aircraft relocated from the existing facility. The relocation of the local package sorting operations is warranted due to FedEx’s existing aircraft apron and facility sort capacity constraints associated with normal growth. The proposed work would discharge 300,000 cubic yards of classified fill and backfill (gravel from existing local source) and 6,000 cubic yards of asphalt concrete pavement into approximately 14.79 acres of wetlands to construct two new buildings (an approximate 206,000 square feet package sorting facility and 815 square feet vehicle wash building, totaling approximately 4.75 acres of building area), parking and paved areas (approximately 5.18 acres), grassed swales and islands (approximately 1 acre), a sedimentation basin (approximately 0.9 acres) and a feeder aircraft ramp extension (approximately 7.14 acres) on a 21.9 acre parcel that will be leased from the TSAIA. The buildings will be built on pilings south of the ramp extension using a structural slab to reduce surcharging requirements. The parking area will be located east of the building and connect to North Tug Road and Postmark Drive via a short driveway. All work would be performed in accordance with the enclosed plan (sheets 1-5), dated July 18, 2022.
