The project will add to area pollution and disrupt ever more of our diminishing store of wild animal/bird/native plant life!!

This is outrageous. The MBTA is taking over our neighborhood. The air traffic is bad enough now. There is is zero benefit for 99% of the the surrounding residents.

The expansion doesn't align with reducing carbon emissions, and there's enough noise pollution from the jets over Concord and surrounding towns already.

Expansion of Hanscom for private jet traffic benefits only a few and puts a tremendous burden on the rest of us trying to meet climate goals.

Private jets convenience the few at the expense of the many. Those of us in the neighborhood of Hanscom would pay for this project with the health effects of the pollution and noise, to say nothing of the extra greenhouse gas that affects everyone.

There are lots of things we need in our community. More private jets is not one that benefits the community.

No expansion for private aircraft. Less flying for reducing carbon emissions.

Obviously this expansion would nullify efforts to reduce carbon emission and severely impact protected areas

No expansion. No large aircrafts

Too much noise in the air and too much traffic everywhere already. Hardly any point in moving to the suburbs is there?

Keep private jets out of our airspace.

Carbon emission, noise emission, fracture of calm at Walden Woods and historic Concord/Lincoln make this expansion unconscionable.

Lexington CCRC resident : Horrible idea for the neighborhood & the world. Private jets are an excrecence.

This expansion is so wrong at so many levels, it's hard to comprehend...

The noise pollution in this area is already very bad, particularly on weekends when the super-wealthy fly back to the area on their private jets. It's an unconscionable act of selfishness that should not be tolerated. I went for a walk in a conservation area (Great Meadows) on a Sunday afternoon, and counted 32 small planes flying overhead in the space of an hour and a half. So much for peace and quiet. STOP THIS.
