McKINNEY, TEXAS — A conservation group has filed a formal challenge against the planned expansion of McKinney National Airport, citing concerns over air quality, noise pollution, and possible impacts on endangered species in the area.

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), which is managing the project, plans to expand the airport’s facilities to handle an expected increase in air traffic. The conservation group claims TxDOT has not fully accounted for the potential long-term environmental effects.

The group raised concerns about increased emissions from aircraft operations, referencing studies that associate airport expansions with higher air pollution levels. They state that this could affect air quality in the surrounding region.

The group also cited possible effects on endangered species in the area. They claim that expansion could alter or disrupt habitats and have requested that TxDOT conduct a more extensive environmental review to evaluate the project’s full impact.

In a statement, TxDOT said it has completed the necessary environmental assessments and that the project complies with existing federal and state environmental regulations. The agency states the expansion is part of efforts to address growing air travel demand and infrastructure needs in the region.

The McKinney airport expansion project is one of several infrastructure developments in the region facing review for environmental compliance.
