# Environmental Desk Reference for Airport Actions
**ACTION:**
Notice of availability.
**SUMMARY:**
On May 18, 2006, the Federal Aviation Administration's Office of Airports (ARP) published a notice in the *Federal Register* . That Notice told interested parties about the availability of the Preamble for FAA Order 5050.4B, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Implementing Instructions for Airport Actions (71 FR 29014). In that Preamble, ARP stated that it would prepare a desk reference to provide its staff and interested parties with information on integrating and complying with Federal environmental laws, regulations, and Executive Orders other than NEPA (71 FR 29015).
Today's Notice alerts interested parties that ARP has prepared the desk reference, entitled “Environmental Desk Reference for Airport Actions.” Interested parties may review a copy of the document at the following Web site: *http://www.faa.gov/airports_airtraffic/airports/environmental/environmental_desk_ref/.*
ARP will publish changes to the Desk Reference that may be needed to respond to changes in the laws, regulations, or Executive Orders the Desk Reference discusses.
