In the OLS, the authority will list details of overhead troubles like high-rise buildings, electricity lines, religious sites, minarets, big old trees ponds, rivers and wildlife habitat pertaining to the site for the proposed airport, said official sources, adding that Uttar Pradesh’s Civil Aviation department asked the authority to provide funds for OLS. Besides conducting an OLS, a team from the Uttar Pradesh Civil Aviation department will also meet YEIDA Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Arun Vir Singh, to discuss issues pertaining to the airport‘s location, land and hurdles confronting the project. There are clear directions from the UP government to expedite the work on the airport project.
