PHOENIX-The terrorist attacks of Sept. 11 have delayed a final report from the FAA on the safety issues related to a new $375-million football stadium just east of Sky Harbor Airport.

The FAA was supposed to issue its final report Oct. 8 regarding the Tempe stadium for the Arizona Cardinals, but has since granted a two-week extension for the public comment period. The federal agency, in charge of airline and airport safety, plans to issue its findings Oct. 22.

Earlier this year, the FAA said the stadium, which is to go up at the northeast corner of the Red Mountain section of Loop 202 and Priest Drive, is a possible hazard to pilots landing at Phoenix’s Sky Harbor International Airport. The stadium is about two miles east of the runway.
