This airport expansion would have a huge environmental impact in carbon emissions alone not to mention noise, habitat destruction, etc. It should not be allowed .

Luxury jets and expansion for them is completely out of line with Massachusetts' climate objectives and stated goals in the Next Generation Roadmap Act.

Please please please stop this airport expansion for private jets. We should be investing in rail--let the wealthy travel in private cars, i don't care, but please let's not roll out the red carpet for more private jets when people who have never flown are losing EVERYTHING, all the time, due to the effects of AGW.

Please stop this project. It's unnecessary and very bad for the environment!

Please stop rich people from continuing to destroy the planet in a way that will result in the biggest climate impacts on the most vulnerable in society.

As a Massachusetts resident, I ask Gov. Healey to stop the expansion at Hanscom Field and lead our commonwealth on climate policy.

Wealthy people are already hurting us in ways small and large. Now they assume that if it is something they want, the Earth doesn't matter. Let them fly commercially.

Governor Healy, I so appreciate your climate leadership. We need to move forward consistently on all climate-related fronts. The climate costs of private jet travel are huge. It would be unwise and counterproductive to make private jet travel more convenient by expanding capacity. Thank you for your consideration.

These jets already fly low over my place several times a day. I don't want to see the expansion with the significantly added traffic it would bring. Thank you.

Do the right thing! This airport expansion has got to be stopped! Please don't let the selfish shortsighted individuals and companies pollute our environment and worsen the climate change that is already upon us!

The last thing we need is more pollution and noise from additional numbers of private aircraft flowing in and out of Hanscom.

I live in an affordable condominium near Hanscom, and I often walk on the adjacent trail at Minute Man National Park. The noise level is very stressful. I am also extremely concerned about the air quality. I often go outside and smell jet fuel, and I am so upset - I am trying to be healthy and walk outside, and I find it incredibly distressing to inhave jet fuel. I am very worried about the health affects of these fuels.

Encouraging private jets in this time of climate crisis makes no sense.

I am a resident of Concord and I don't want to see this expansion and the harmful impact it would have on our community.
