PURPOSE. This advisory circular (AC) sets forth guidelines concerning the operational safety on airports during construction, to assist airport operators in complying with Part 139, Certification and Operation: Land Airports Serving Certain Air Carriers, of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR), and with the requirements of Federally-funded construction projects. Construction activity is defined as the presence and movement of personnel, equipment, and materials in any location which could infringe upon the* movement of aircraft. For noncertificated airports and airports with no grant agreements, application of these provisions will help maintain the desired level of operational safety during periods of construction. - 2.

All references cited herein are available for inspection in any Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regional office. a. The Federal Aviation Regulations are sold by the Superintendent of Documents (AC 00-44 , Status of Federal Aviation Regulations, current edi- tion, contains a price list and ordering instructions) . b. AC 150/5370-10, Standards for Specifying Construction: of Airports, is also sold by the Superintendent of Documents (AC 00-2, Advisory Circular Checklist, current edition, contains ordering instructions) . 4. BACKGROUND. Various AC's which detail all major elements of safe, efficient airport design and construction are available. However, opera- tional safety on airports may be degraded by construction hazards or margi- nal conditions that develop after an airport has been opened or approved for operation. This AC addresses that problem. NOTE: Airports which have received Federal assistance (grants, real or personal property) and air- ports certificated under FAR Part 139 have mandatory require=eats related to this subject. AC 150/5370-2C 5/31/84 + 5. GENERAL. - a. The airport operator is responsible for full compliance with the require- ments of FAR Part 139 for certificated airports and with the provisions of Federal + grant agreements when applicable. Adherence to the following provisions will materially assist the airport operator in providing the level of safety required. Local FAA Airports offices have technical expertise to assist airport operators in all safety matters on airports. (See AC 150/5000-3, Address List for Regional Airports Divisions and Airports District/Field Offices, current edition. ) b . Each bidding document (construction plans and/or specifications) for air- a port development work or air navigation facility (NAVAID) installation involving aircraft operational areas should incorporate a section on safety on airports during the construction activity. The section, as a minimum, should contain the appropriate provisions outlined in appendix 1 to this AC. c. The airport operator should pay particular attention to the pullback distances and clearances for any maintenance activities and emergencies that occur on airports. These include activities which involve maintenance equipment--such as mowing machines, snowplows, lighting equipment--as well as emergency standbys for firefighting and rescue equipment. d. Where -Oeasible and where operational safety is not affected, the airport operator may choose to keep open operational areas adjacent to construction � activity during construction rather than close theta to aircraft activity. e. At-airports that are undergoing a multi-year major redevelopment, a compre- • hensive construction safety plan should be 'developed . This safety plan may contain deviations from the criteria outlined in appendix 1 of this AC so long as they are based upon a commitment by the airport operator and the users to provide the maxi- mum clearances possible between construction activities and aircraft within the limits imposed by local conditions. E. COCRD:NAT=ON OF AIRPORT_ CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES. Construction activities on an a a'_r?ort, in proximity to, or affecting aircraft operational areas or navigable airspace, s1hould be coordinated with the FAA and airport users prior to initi=_ti..^.g such activities. In addition, basic responsibilities and procedures should be developed and disseminated to instruct construction personnel in airport procedures and L'or moritoring construetior activities for conformance with safety require- ments. These and other safety considerations should be addressed in the earliest d stages of project formulation and incorporated in the contract specifications. Construction areas located within safety areas requiring special attention by. the contractor should be clearly delineated on the project plans. The airport operator should closet; monitor construction activity throughout its duration to ensure con- tinual compliance with safety requirements. a. Formal Notification.. A formal notification to the FAA is required by regu- _-tion for certain airport projects. For instance, FAR Part 157, Notice of Construction, Alteration, Activation, and Deactivation of Airports, requires that F= VA A be ^Ctifie''. ir. writing wherever a rcn-Federally funded project invol'%es t e ■ Par 5 5/31/84 AC 150/5370-2C construction of a new airport; the construction, realigning, altering, activating, or abandoning of a runway, landing strip, or associated taxiway; and the deac- tivating or abandoning of an entire airport. Formal notification is made by sub- mitting FAA Form 7480-1 , Notice of Landing Area Proposal, to the nearest FAA district office or FAA regional office. (See AC 70-2, Airspace Utilization Considerations in the Proposed Construction, Alteration, Activiation and Deactivation of Airports, current edition.) Also, any person proposing any kind of construction or alteration of objects that affect navigable airspace, as defined in FAR Part 77, Objects Affecting Navigable Airspace, is required to notify the FAA. FAA Form 7460-1, Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration, should be used for this purpose. (See AC 70/7460-2, Proposed Construction or Alteration of Objects That May Affect the Navigable Airspace, current edition.) b. Work Scheduling'-and Accomplishment. Predesign, preconstruction, and prebid conferences provide excellent opportunities to introduce the subject of airport operational safety during construction. All parties involved, including the spon- sor's engineer and contractors, should integrate operational safety requirements into their planning and work schedules as early as practical . Also, respon= sibilities should be clearly established for continuous monitoring and compliance y with the requirements assigned and for vigilance to detect areas needing attention due to oversight or altered construction activity. When construction is being planned on FAR Part 139 certificated airports, the responsible airport safety (certification) inspector should be directly involved at all stages, from pre- design through final inspection. c. Safety Considerations. The following is a partial list of sa.-Nmty con- siderations which experience indicates will need attention during airport construction. ( 1) Minimum disruption of standard operating procedures for aercra,:tical activity. (2) Clear routes from firefighting and rescue stations to active airport operations areas and safety areas. (3) C.-.a-, n of notification and authority tO change safety-Oriented aspects of the construction p'-_n. T (4) In_ti_t_or., currency, and carcell=_t_.r, of Nctice to Airmen (NC7'V'I's) . (5) Suspension or restriction of aircraft. activit-y on airport operations areas. (6) Threshold displacement and appropriate temporary lighting and mzrki^g• (7) Installation and ma_ntenance of tem--crary l:g ting and marking for closed or diverted a_. craft routes on ai^pert oce. :..'_c..^.s areas . (8) Revised vehicular control procedures cr a''ditioral equipment and manpower. (9) Marking/? ghtirtg of construction equipment.

(33) Notify crash/fire/rescue personnel when working on water lines. (34) Provide traffic directors/wing walkers, etc., as needed to assure clearance in construction areas. d. Guidelines for Proximity of Construction Activity to Airport Operations Areas. The guidelines contained in appendix 1 are for use in the preparation of plans and specifications when construction activities are to be conducted in loca- tions which may interfere with aircraft operations. They should be adapted to the needs of a particular project and should not be incorporated verbatim into project specifications. 7. EXAMPLES OF HAZARDOUS AND MARGINAL CONDITIONS. Analyses of past accidents and incidents have identified many contributory hazards and conditions. A represen- tative list follows: a. Excavation adjacent to runways, taxiways, and aprons. b. Mounds or stockpiles of earth, construction material, temporary structures, and other obstacles in proximity to airport operations areas and approach zones. c. Runway surfacing projects resulting in excessive lips greater than 1 inch (2.54 cm)- for runways and 3 inches (7.62 cm) for edges between old and new surfaces at runway edges and ends. d. Heavy equipment, stationary or mobile, operating or idle near airport operations areas or in safety areas. e. Proximity of equipment or material which may degrade radiated signals or impair monitoring of navigational aids. f. Tall but relat4-7ely low visibility units such as cranes, drills, and the like in critical areas such as safety areas and approach zones. g. Improper or malfunctioning lights or unlighted airport hazards. h. Holes, obstacles, loose pavement, trash, and other debris on or near air- port operations areas. Failure to maintain fencing during construction to deter human and anlxal intrusions into the airport operation areas. j. Open trenches along side pavement. k. Improper marking or lighting of runways, taxiways, and displaced thresholds. 1. Attractions for birds such as trash, grass seeding, or ponded water on or near airports. Par 6 5 AC 150/5370-2C 5/31/84 m. Inadequate or improper methods of marking temporarily closed airport opera- tions areas including improper and unsecured barricades. n. Obliterated markings on active operational areas. NOTE: Safety area encroachments, improper ground vehicle operations, and unmarked or uncovered holes and trenches in the vicinity of aircraft operating sur- faces are the three most recurring threats to safety during construction. -8. ASSURING OPERATIONAL SAFETY. The airport operator is responsible for establishing and -using procedures for the immediate notification of airport users and the FAA of any conditions adversely affecting operational safety at the air- port. If construction operations require shutdown of a navigational aid from ser- vice for more than 24 hours or in excess of 4 hours daily on consecutive days, a 45-day minimum notice is desirable prior to the facility shutdown. Notification of construction, rough pavement, weather-caused effects, bird hazards, and other con- ditons affecting the use of the airport is usually made by NOTAM issued by Flight Service Stations. FAA Air Traffic facilities and Airports district/field offices will assist in the notification process. Airmen or other persons engaged in aviation activities are encouraged to report safety-related airport conditions to airport management, the FAA or through the use of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Aviation Safety Reporting System. 9. VEHICLES ON AIRPORTS. Vehicular activity on airport movement areas should be kept to a minimum. Where vehicular traffic on airport operation areas cannot be avoided, it should be carefully controlled. A basic guiding principle is that the aircraft always has the right-of-way. Scme aspects of vehicle control and iden- tification are discussed below. It should be recognized, however, that every air- port presents different vehicle requirements and problems and therefore needs individualized solutions so that vehicle traffic does not endanger aircraft operations . a. Visibility. Vehicles which routinely operate on airport operations areas should be marked/flagged for high daytime visibility and, if appropriate, lighted for nighttime operations. Vehicles which are not marked and lighted should be escorted by one that is equipped with temporary marking and lighting devices. (See AC 150/5210-5, Painting, Marking, and Lighting of Vehicles Used on an Airport, current edition.) b. Identification. It is usually desirable to be able to identify visually specific vehicles from a distance. It is recommended that radio equipped vehicles which routinely operate on airport operations areas be permanently marked with identifying characters on the sides and roof. (See AC 150/5210-5. ) Vehicles needing intermittent identification could be marked with tape or with magnetically attached markers which are commercially available. Whenever possible, vehicles should be purchased with the recommended markings and lighting. r c. Noticeability. Construction vehicles/equipment should have automatic S. gnalling devices to sound an alarm when moving in reverse. 6 Par 7 5/31/34 AC 150/5370-2C d. Movement. The control of vehicular activity on airport operations areas is of the highest importance. Airport management is responsible for developing proce- dures, procuring equipment, and providing training regarding vehicle operations to ensure aircraft safety during construction. This requires coordination with air- port users and air traffic control. Consideration should be given to the use of two-way radio, signal lights, traffic signs, flagmen, escorts, or other means suitable for the particular airport. The selection of a frequency for two-way radio communications between construction contractor vehicles and the air traffic control (ATC) tower must be coordinated with the ATC tower chief. At nontower air- ports, two-way radio control between contractor vehicles and fixed-base operators or other airport users should avoid frequencies used by aircraft. It should be remembered that even with the most sophisticated procedures and equipment, systematic training of vehicle operators is necessary to achieve safety. Special -con- sideration should be given to training intermittent operators, such as construction workers, even if escort service is being provided. 10 . INSPECTION. Frequent inspections should be made by the airport operator or a representative during critical phases of the work to ensure that the contractor is following the prescribed safety procedures and that there is an effective litter control program. 11 . FAA SAFETY RESPONSIBILITIES. FAA Airports engineers and certification inspec- tors have specific responsibilities regarding operational safety on certificated airports before and during periods of construction activity. Their particular area of concern will be directed towards construction within safety areas, and they will be involved in the following functions: a. Review of plans to determine limits of work and possible safety problem areas. b. Give special attention to the development of the safety plan which is a part of the plans and specifications . c. Advise FAA elements such as regional Flight Standards, Air Traffic, and Airway Facilities of the construction activities and the safety plan. d. Ensure that users of the facilities have ample warning of the proposed construction so that they may make advanced plans to change their operations. e . FAA Airports engineers and certification inspectors should participate in the predesign and preconstruction conferences if t:,e pr-;ect involves a complex safety plan. Also, they should participate in construction inspections and in the inspection of the finished work to determine that there are no safety violations to FAR Part 139.

Construction equipment normally should not penetrate the 20.1 approach surface. 2. RUNWAY EDGES. Construction activities normally should not be permitted within 200 feet of the runway centerline. However, construction may be permitted within 200 feet of the runway centerline on a case-by-case basis with approval of the air- port operator, the FAA and the users. 3. TAXIWAYS AND APRONS. Normally, construction activity set-back lines should be located at a distance of 25 feet plus one-half the wingspan of the largest predomi- nant aircraft from the centerline of an active taxiway or apron. However, construction activity may be permitted up to the taxiway and aprons in use provided that the activity is first coordinated with the airport operator, the FAA and the users; NGTAM's are issued; marking and lighting provisions are implemented; and it is determined the height of equipment and materials is safely below any part of the a'_rcra`'t using the airport operations areas which might overhang those areas. An occasional passage of an aircraft with wingspan greater than 165 feet should be dealt with on a case-by-case basis . 4 . EXCAVATION AND TRENCHES. a. Runways. Excavations and open trenches may be permitted up to 200 fel: from the centerline of an active runway, provided they are adequately signed, lighted and marked . in addition, excavation and open trenches may be perm;tted within 200 feet of the runway centerline on a case-by-case basis, i.e. , cable trenches, pavement tie-ins, etc., with the approval of the airport operator, the FAA and the users. b . Taxiways and Aprcns. Excava:ion and open trenches may be permitted up to the edge of structural taxiway and apron pavements provided the drop-off is ade- quately signed, ligated and marked. : 5 .

AC 150/5370-2C 5/31/84 Appendix 1 FAA is necessary. Technical involvement by FAA regional Airports, Air Traffic, Flight Standards, and Airway Facilities Specialists is needed as well as construc- tion engineering and management input. Particular attention needs to be given to stockpiling materials as well as to the movement and parking of equipment which may interfere With line-of-sight from the tower or interfere with electronic emissions. (See AC 150/5300-2D, Airport Design Standards—Site Requirements for Terminal Navigational Facilities, current edition, for critical areas of NAVAIDS.) 8. CONSTRUCTION VEHICLE TRAFFIC. With respect to vehicular traffic, aircraft safety during construction is likely to be endangered by four principle causes: increased traffic volume, nonstandard traffic patterns, vehicles without radio com- munication and marking, and operators untrained in the airport's procedures. Because each construction situation differs, airport management must develop and coordinate a construction vehicle traffic plan with airport users, air traffic control and the appropriate construction engineers and contractors. This plan, when signed by all participants becomes a part of the contract. The airport opera- tor is responsible for coordinating and enforcing the plan. 9 . LIMITATION ON CONSTRUCTION. a. Open-flame gelding or torch-cutting operations should be prohibited unless adequate fire and safety precautions are provided and have been approved by the airport operator. All vehicles are to be parked and serviced behind the construc- tion restriction line and/or in an area designated by the airport operator. b. Open trenches, excavations, and stockpiled material at the construction site should be prominently marked with orange flags and lighted with flashing yellow light units (acceptable to the airport operator and the FAA) during hours of restricted visibility and/or darkness . Under no circumstances are flare pots to be near aircraft turning areas. c. Stockpiled material should be constrained in a manner to prevent movement result of aircraft blast or wind. Material should not be stored near aircraft turning areas or movement areas. 10 . MARKING AND LIGHTING OF CLOSED OR HAZARDOUS AREAS ON AIRPORTS. The construc- tion specifications should include a provision requiring the contractor to have a man on call 24 hours per day for emergency maintenance of airport hazard lighting and barricades. a. Permanently Closed Runways and Taxiways. For runways and taxiways which have been permanently closed, the lighting circuits should be disconnected. With runways, the threshold markings, runway designation marking, and touchdown zone a markings should be obliterated, and crosses should be placed at each end at 1 ,000-foot (300 m) intervals. With taxiways, a cross is placed at each entrance of the dosed taxiway. b. Temporarily Closed Runways and Taxiways. Temporarily closed runways are treated in the same manner as in paragraph 10a except runway markings are not obli- terated . Rather, crosses are usually of the temporary type (constructed of 2 r 5/31/84 AC 150/5370-2C Appendix 1 material such as fabric or plywood) , and they are required only at runway ends . The crosses should be located on top of the runway numerates. For temporary marking, the dimensions of the crosses may be reduced to permit use of standard sheets of 4-by-8-foot ( 1 .22 by 2.44 m) plywood. Temporarily closed taxiways are usually treated as an unusable area as explained in paragraph 10d. c. Closed Airports. When all runways are closed temporarily, the runways are marked as in paragraph 10b, and the airport beacon is turned off. When all runways are closed permanently, the runways are marked as in paragraph 10a, -the airport beacon is disconnected, and a cross is placed in the segmented circle or at central location if no segmented circle exists. d . Hazardous Areas. Hazardous areas, in which no part of an aircraft may enter, are indicated by use of barricades with alternate orange and white markings. The barricades are supplemented with orange flags at least 20 by 20 inches (50 by 50 cm) square and made and installed so that they are always in the extended posi- tion and properly oriented . For nighttime use, the barricades are supplemented with flashing yellow lights . The intensity of the lights and spacing for barricades, flags, and lights must be such to delineate adequately the hazardous area. y e. Notices to Airmen (NOTAM's) . The airport operator should provide Infor- mation on closed or hazardous cond'_tons to the local air traffic control facility (control tower, approach control, center, flight service station) so that a NOTAM can be issued . f. Stabilized Areas. Holding bays, aprons, and taxiways are sometimes pro- vided with shoulder stabilization to prevent blast and water erosion. This stab'i- lization may have the appearance of a full strength pavement but is not intended for a' rcraft use. Usually the taxiway edge marking will define this area, but con- ditions may exist such as stabilized islands or taxiway curves where confusion may exist as to which side of the edge stripe is the full strength pavement. Where such a condition exists, the stabilized area should be marked with 3-foot ( 1 m) stripes perpendicular to the edge stripes. On straight sections, the marks should be placed at a maximum of 100-:bot (30 m) spacing. On curves, the marks should be placed a maximum of 50 feet ( 15 m) apart between the curve tangents . The stripes should be extended to 5 feet ( 1 .5 m) from the edge of stabilized area or to 25 feet (7.5 m) in length, whichever is less. g. Runway Shoulder Mar'sine. Usually the runway side stripes will indicate the edges of the full strength pavement. However, conditions may exist, such as excep- tionally wade runways, where there is a need to indicate the area not intended for use by aircraft. In such cases, chevrons should be used. 11 .

PROCEDURES. Aviation safety is a primary consideration during airport construction ' and facilities maintenance. These activities shall be planned and scheduled to minimize disruption of normal aircraft ground and air traffic. For airports subject to FAR Part 107, Airport Security, the airport operator's security program standards shall be observed in the areas of access control, and movement and identification of construction and FAA personnel and vehicles. a. These standards shall be used to develop specific safety measures which FAA employees, grantees, and contractors shall adhere to during these activities on all airports • in the Southwest Region. They provide a reasonable level of safety, but aircraft operations, weather, security, or local airport rules may require use of more stringent safety measures. Use of less stringent measures and changes that impact security controls are permitted only after coordination between Airports, Air Traffic, Airway Facilities, Flight Standards, and Civil Aviation Security Divisions, airport management, and affected aviation users. 2/15/96 SW 5200.5! b. Bid documents for on-airport construction or maintenance projects shall include general and specific safety requirements, based on Appendix 1 to this Order, so that contractors are aware of the costs and constraints which will apply during the project to maintain a high level of aviation safety. c. If the clearances and restrictions described in this Order cannot be maintained whit, construction or maintenance is underway, action will be taken as appropriate to: (1 ) close runways, taxiways, or aprons, (2) relocate or displace runway thresholds temporarily, (3) perform work at night or during periods of minimal aircraft activity, (4) close affected areas to certain types of aircraft, (5) restrict aircraft use by weight, wingspan, approach speed, or other characteristic, (6) shut down or restrict use of navigational or approach aids. d. FAA employees who are responsible for construction or maintenance activities on airports shall coordinate project safety and security requirements and impacts with the airport sponsor as soon as the impacts have been identified, but before commitments are made with contractors or others to perform work on an airport. Coordination will vary from formal predesign conferences to informal contacts with the airport manager or responsible sponsor official before starting work. 7. SAFETY IMPACTS. Potentially hazardous conditions which may occur during airport construction and maintenance include the following: a. Excavations, trenches, and stockpiled material on or near runways, taxiways and aprons. b. Construction equipment on aircraft operating areas or in runway approaches or departure areas. c. Inadequate construction area marking or lighting. d. Lack of control over vehicle access to aircraft operating areas, unauthorized entry of personnel, vehicles, or animals. e. Inadequate vehicle marking or lighting. f. Deficient marking and lighting of temporary runway thresholds. Por i SW 5200.513 2/15/96 g. Failure to issue, update, or cancel Notices to Airmen concerning airport or runway closures or other construction-related airport condition. h. Failure to mark and identify utilities or power cables, resulting in loss of airport lighting; navigational, visual, or approach aids; weather reporting service; or communications. i. Unauthorized vehicle operations in localizer or glide slope critical areas, resulting in electronic interference or facility shutdown. ' j. Construction debris (gravel, sand, mud, paving material, etc.) on airport pavements, resulting in aircraft prop, turbine engine, or tire damage. k. Exposed pavement edges (drop-offs) from runways, taxiways and aprons to adjacent pavement sections or shoulders. I. Construction activities which hamper aircraft rescue/firefighting access from fire stations to the runway-taxiway system or airport buildings. m. Lack of radio communication with construction and maintenance vehicles in aircraft operating areas. 8. SAFETY STANDARDS. Paragraphs a through h below define safety standards and r guidelines for FAA-funded construction and FAA maintenance activities on airports. r a. Obstacle Free Zone (1) Objects, vehicle, and stockpiled material normally are not permitted to penetrate an OFZ. OFZs are shown on Figures 1 - 4. (a) Runway OFZs are applicable at any time the runway is open for • aircraft use. On precision runways with approach lights, the inner-approach and inner- transitional surface OFZs must be kept free of penetrations only when the weather conditions are below an 800 ft. ceiling or less than 2 miles visibility and aircraft are using an Instrument Landing System (ILS) for approaches. (b) Objects which do not penetrate an OFZ still may require notice to the FAA under FAR Parts 77 or 152 and may be obstructions to air navigation. Those objects which exceed FAR Part 77 obstruction standards are to be appropriately r obstruction-marked and, if used at night, obstruction-lighted. Cranes or other equipment of unusual height may require special consideration and coordination with FAA operating Divisions and airport users. e 2/15/96 SW 5200.51; (2) The Runway OFZ is a volume of airspace extending from the runway surface up to 150 feet above the runway. It extends 200 feet beyond each end of the runway and has the following width: Runways Serving: Visibility Minimums Other lower than 3/4 mile Runways Small Aircraft 300 feet 250 feet Large Aircraft 400 feet 200 ft Rwy OFZ Rwy Width OFZ Plan View jEnd View Figure 1 OFZ - Visual Runways and Runways with visibility minimums not lower than 3/4 mile Rwy OR Inner-Transitional OFZ Rwy OFZ L?J I nner-Transitional OFZ Plan View End View Figure 2 OFZ - Small airplanes exclusively with visibility minimums lower than 3/4 mile a SW 5200.513 2/15196 ' r Inner-Transitional OFZ Inner-Transitional OFZ t Rwy OFZ LOFL a Plan View End View Figure 3. OFZ - Runways serving large aircraft - visibility minimums lower than 3/4 mile (3) The Inner-Approach OFZ, shown in Figure 4, applies only to runways ' with approach lighting systems. It begins 200 feet from the runway threshold and ends 200 feet beyond the last light unit in an approach lighting system, and has a 50:1 slope, beginning at runway end elevation.

Approach Clearance Over Equipment and Material. (1) Construction activity in a runway approach may result in a need to displace the landing threshold temporarily. if an object penetrates a surface shown in Fig. 5, displace the threshold to a point where the surface is not penetrated. (2) Objects which do not penetrate these surfaces still may be obstructions to air navigation and/or may affect standard instrument approach procedures. Coordinate these with the Fort Worth Flight Procedures Office, and the Air Traffic System Management Branch, ASW-530, as necessary. ®II/� Runway End 20 Ob�tgrle /�� I � I a ® a kunway aD E Dimension Small AircraftI Large Aircraft (Feet) A 0 200 -.

(1) When equipment of construction/maintenance activity must be on a runway and a decision is made to keep part of the runway open for aircraft, part of the runway must be closed as shown in Figure 6. The dimensions shown are recommended; however, a larger closed area than shown may be necessary depending on aircraft use, level of activity, pilot technique, and equipment height, and a smaller closed area may be possible under some circumstances. These recommendations are based on equipment heights of about 15 feet; higher objects may require special considerations. (2) Use the following distances from the construction/maintenance activity to the relocated threshold: Small aircraft (12,500 lbs or less) - 500 feet Large aircraft (More than 12,500 lbs.) - 1000 feet r Closed Area Usable Runway 1500' or 1000' Equipment Temporary , Relocated Threshold Figure 6. Relocated Threshold for Equipment on the Runway d. Runway and Taxiway Safety Areas. (1) Runway safety areas - construction or maintenance activity is prohibited in runway safety areas (RSA) while the full length of the runway is open. Normal FAA maintenance of visual, approach, and navigational aids is permissible within safety areas provided vehicles, material, and excavations do not penetrate a runway OFZ and requirements of paragraph 8b for approach clearance over vehicles, equipment and material are met. (2) Runway safety area dimensions are shown in Figure 7. Existing safety areas at a particular airport may be larger or smaller than the standard dimensions listed. If construction or maintenance activity must take place within the specified safety area, it is also acceptable to restrict the runway use to a smaller size of aircraft and use a ' narrower and/or shorter safety area dimension for the duration of the activity. 2/15/96 SW 5200.E b Fa c RSA Aircraft Approach Category Runway Safety Area Dimensions (Feet) Airplane Design Group (See Appendix 3) A and B 1 II III IV Amen. visual runways and 0 120 150 300 500 not lower than 3/4 mi approach visibility minimums 7 30 40 100 175 c 240 300 600 1000 lower than 3/4 mi approach Qa 300 300 400 500 visibility minimums © 100 100 150 175 c 600 600 800 1000 C and D 1 II 111 IV V Fal All 500 © All 150 0 All 1000 Note 1 : Use dimension a or b, whichever results in the greater distance from the runwe centerline.

Construction/maintenance activity is permissible in taxiway object free areas and safety areas if the activity is hazard-marked and/or lighted and NOTAMs are in effect. Special consideration must be given to the height of barricades, flashers and other warning devices to clear aircraft wingtips, propellers, engines etc. Other actions may be necessary such as: • Using "wingwalkers" to guide aircraft past hazards, • Using temporary taxiway marking/lighting to detour aircraft clear of the area, • Moving equipment and personnel well clear to allow aircraft to pass safely. .................... ..............................................................................................................................................

Marking and Lighting (1) Temporary displaced runway threshold: (a) Mark with white arrows and a white threshold bar as .shown in Advisory Circular 150/5340-1 , or (b) Use alternate marking which is: 1 Clearly visible to the pilot, 2 Not misleading, confusing, or deceptive, a Secured in place to prevent movement, 4 Made of material which will minimize damage to aircraft which come in contact with the marking. (2) Temporary relocated runway threshold (partial closure of a runway): (a) Mark with yellow chevrons as shown in A.C. 150/5340-1, or use alternate marking as described in par. (1)(b) above. (b) Runway distance remaining signs may need to be covered or removed during the closure to avoid misleading runway length indications to pilots. (3) Temporary runway thresholds must be lighted if all or part of a runway is to be open at night during construction and maintenance. The airport operator may already have temporary threshold lighting available, but this should be determined in advance. (a) Use light lens colors and spacing in A.C. 150/5340-24, Runway and Taxiway Edge LighliagySystem. (b) Disable runway lighting on closed parts of runways and adjust amber lenses (caution zone) if necessary. On some lighting systems, it may be necessary to cover a light rather than removing the lamp or fixture. (c) Disable visual glide slope indicators (VASI, PAPI, PLASI, etc.), REIL, and approach lights which would otherwise give misleading indications to pilots as to the threshold location. Installation of temporary visual aids may be necessary to provide adequate guidance for pilots on approach to the affected runway. These may be funded or provided by the FAA or the sponsor. SW 5200.56 2/15/96 (4) Closed runway marking: (a) Use yellow "X" marking as shown in A.C. 150/5340-1 . (b) Closed runway marking is not required on airports with 24-hour Control Towers-if the closed runway cannot be mistaken by pilots for nearby open runways. and the airport operator consents to omitting them. In some cases, closed runway marking could interfere with the use of the runway for aircraft taxiing if this is to be allowed while the runway is closed for landing and takeoffs. (c) Closed runway marking is not required on runways which are closed only at night provided that: 1 Runway lighting and visual aids are turned off, 2 NOTAMs are in effect regarding the closure. (5) Hazard Marking (barricades, traffic cones, flashers, etc.) shall be used: (a) To outline construction/maintenance areas which are accessible to aircraft, persons, or vehicles, (b) To identify isolated hazards such as open manholes, small areas under repair, stockpiled material, waste areas, etc., (c) To prevent aircraft from taxiing onto a closed runway for takeoff, (d) To identify FAA, airport, and National Weather Service facilities, cables, power lines, ILS critical areas and other sensitive areas, in order to prevent damage, interference, and facility shutdown. ffi f. Navigation Aids and Instrument Approach Procedures (1) The need to shut down navigational, approach, or visual aids shall be determined on a case-by-case basis. Flight Standards, Air Traffic, Airports, Airway Facilities, the Flight Procedures Office, and the airport sponsor shall be involved in the decision as necessary. Work within an ILS critical area may affect the radiated signals and interfere with aircraft navigation. ILS critical areas may be shown on the Airport Layout Plan, or contact the local Airway Facilities office or Airport Traffic Control Tower for information on critical area location and dimensions. (2) Construction on or near runways may severely restrict the use of Standard Instrument Approach Procedures, and all phases of the project shall be coordinated with the Fort Worth Flight Procedures Office to determine the effects. 2/15/96 SW 5200.5B g. Notices to Airmen (NOTAM) (1) Responsibility for issuing NOTAMs shall be determined before construction or maintenance begins. Refer to Order 7930.1, National Notice to Airmen System, or Advisory Circular 150/5200-28, Notices to Airmen for Airport Operators. (2) NOTAMs on shutdown or irregular operation of FAA-owned-facilities shall be issued and canceled only by FAA employees. Flight Data Center (FDC) NOTAMs on instrument approach procedures are issued by the Fort Worth Flight Procedures Office. NOTAMs on airport conditions and non-Federal navigational aids shall be issued and canceled only by the airport sponsor. Any person having reason to believe that a NOTAM is missing, incomplete, or inaccurate shall notify the responsible person. h. Vehicle Identification.
