Eis a Virtual Green Light for Third Runway
The supplement to the EIS was finally released on 2 October exactly a year after the draft EIS was produced.

Sixty six of these submissions came from action groups while only ten were submitted by airlines. As pointed out in Australian Aviation (p. 17 May 91) the major beneficiaries of the third runway may be falsely assuming that a good idea like the third runway doesn’t need help to fall over the line.
