Ontario airport starts environmental review for new Terminal 3

Ontario International Airport: ONT released a Notice of Preparation for an Environmental Impact Report on its ONT BOLD program, the formal start of review for a new three-level Terminal 3 of roughly 650,000 square feet, plus modernized Terminals 2 and 4, a new parking garage, and reworked roadways, rental car facilities, and aircraft apron. Terminal 3 would add a Federal Inspection Services facility for international processing and gates with MARS stands that can take two narrowbody or one widebody aircraft. The authority says peak demand already exceeds the design capacity of its terminals; passenger volume has grown nearly 70% since local control returned in 2016, topping 7 million a year. Designs and costs get refined through the review, with completion projected over 10 years.
