The entrance to the terminal will remain the same. Chairman Vaughan would like there to be a canopy to protect the people when they leave the terminal and go to the trailers. Chairman Macintyre suggested there be a sign so people know where Island Airlines and Nantucket Airlines are located. As soon as Phase 1 and 1A are complete TSA will move into the terminal and the trailers will be sent back. The paving of the ramp will be done in 2009 upon completion. It is recommended there be some kind of signage for the passengers which will drect them and information regarding the stages in which the terminal is at.

There are 3 systems to look into. The Base System uses oil as fuel and is used in the current estimate. . Altemate# 1 Energy Recovery: first cost $1,741,800. This system is an all electric system and uses less total fuel. . Alternate # 2 Geothermal: first cost $1,650.500. Ttis system uses geothermal source for heat transfer. The altemate # 2 system saves between $60,000 and $70,000 per year in operating cost. The Commission, as well as Skanska has some concerns about the geothermal systems. Are there any negatives, upkeep, are there any systems working now and how long have they been running?
