The proposed SNSA would be a commercial airport to supplement Harry Reid International Airport (LAS), which would be constructed and operated by the Clark County Department of Aviation (CCDOA). The proposed SNSA would be constructed on an approximate 6,000-acre site located in the Ivanpah Valley, mostly in the Roach Dry Lake, south of Jean, Nevada and north of Primm, Nevada along the east side of Interstate-15 (I-15) and approximately 30 miles south of LAS. An additional 17,000 acres of Federally managed lands would be conveyed to CCDOA for airport noise compatibility purposes; as well as an additional 2,320 acres of Federally managed lands would be conveyed for flood mitigation infrastructure.
