5 Federal Aviation Administration 5 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 FY 2016 AIP Program All Airports Submitted Their Annual CIP’s in December 2014 ADO Established 2016 AIP Program in May 2015 ADO PM’s currently conducting Pre-Grant Conferences for FY16 Projects First Grants – Possibly by March 31 st, 2016 Work with ADO PM on Bidding schedules –Bid Opening for all projects NLT July 1, 2016 –Final Applications based on bids due to ADO by July 15, 2016

6 Federal Aviation Administration 6 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 FY 2017 AIP Program CIP Call Letter Issued in October 2015 (Dec. 1 submittal) ADO PM’s are currently reviewing CIP’s This April – Selection of Projects & Disc. Program We Continue to Encourage Prior-year Design

7 Federal Aviation Administration 7 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 Safety Runway Safety Areas – FAA is wrapping up a 15 year effort to improve all Runway Safety Areas at air carrier airports. This was congressionally mandated, and it was to be completed by the end of calendar year 2015. Some ATO projects to relocate certain NAVAIDS and related equipment that are not fixed by function are ongoing. ATO has until the end of CY2017 to complete their RSA projects. Runway Incursions – The prevention of runway incursions continues to be a high safety priority of the FAA. The Office of Airports recently took an in depth look at runway incursion data for a six year period. We found that airport geometry played an important role in many of these incidents. In late 2015, The Office of Airports unveiled a new comprehensive and multiyear program to work with airports to identify, prioritize, and implement projects to correct these confusing airport geometry to reduce runway incursions. (Runway Incursion Mitigation (RIM) Program) Hot Topics for Airports

8 Federal Aviation Administration 8 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 Safety Continued: Wildlife – Please review your wildlife hazard assessment and management plan and update as necessary. Sign and Markings - There have been several sign and marking standards changes over the last couple of years. We encourage sponsors to review these Advisory Circulars and ensure your airports meet the standards. Hot Topics for Airports

15 Federal Aviation Administration 15 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 Hot Topics for Airports Safety Management Systems (SMS) – ARP or “Internal” SMS: FAA conducts safety assessment primarily for review/approval of: –CSPP –MoS –New/revised ALP The “trigger” for ARP SMS is the FAA review/approval of the action and is not dependent upon AIP/PFC eligibility Implementation Schedule –June 1, 2011: Large hub airports –June 1, 2015: Medium hub airports –June 1, 2016: Small hub airports

16 Federal Aviation Administration 16 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 Hot Topics for Airports Safety Management Systems (SMS) – Part 139 or “External” SMS Rulemaking: Rule expected to be published no earlier than mid-2017 –PGL 13-06: AIP funding available to some airports for development of SMS Implementation Plan and SMS Manual Part 139 certificate holder maintains their own SMS –Must address all 4 components of SMS –ARP provides oversight through the Part 139 ACSI program Airport deliverables (as proposed rule is written) –SMS Implementation Plan development Class I airports: 6 months Class II, III, and IV airports: 9 months –SMS Program Implementation Class I airports: 18 months Class II, III, and IV airports: 24 months

17 Federal Aviation Administration 17 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 Compliance Use of Airport Revenue/FAA Policy on Aviation Fuel Taxes - The FAA issued its final policy on proceeds from taxes on aviation fuel for publication in the Federal Register on November 7, 2014. This action finalizes the amendment of FAA’s Policy and Procedures Concerning the Use of Airport Revenues (Revenue Use Policy). The FAA’s Final Revenue Use Policy considers state or local taxes on aviation fuel (except taxes in effect on December 30, 1987) to be airport revenue subject to the revenue-use requirement. However, state and local taxes on aviation fuel may be used to support state aviation programs or for noise mitigation purposes, on or off airport. The policy amendment applies prospectively to the use of proceeds from both new taxes and to existing taxes that do not qualify for grandfathering from revenue use requirements. States and counties have one year from December 8, 2014 to develop a plan to comply and the plan should take no more than 3 years to implement. Hot Topics for Airports

18 Federal Aviation Administration 18 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 Congressional Representatives March 2014 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 Hot Topics for Airports Compliance Continued: Non-Aeronautical use – In 2014, FAA issued a policy of non- aeronautical use of aviation facilities. This policy actually takes a common sense approach to use of aviation facilities on your airport and allows for exceptions based on aviation need. Leases – It is important to charge fair market value for non aeronautical leases. FAA must review these leases prior to execution. Commercial Space – In 2015 a letter was sent to all airport sponsors of NPIAS airports asking for early coordination if interested in space activity at your airport.

19 Federal Aviation Administration 19 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 Hot Topics for Airports Compliance Continued: Special Events – (involving temporary airport closure) Complete or Partial Closure of Airport Facility Coordinate with ADO PM through 7460-1 (iOE/AAA) Timely Include Safety Plan Crowd Control Plan – FSDO review – 45 days Fair Market compensation Refer to FAA Order 5190.6B, Compliance Manual

20 Federal Aviation Administration 20 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 Compliance Continued: Unmanned Aircraft Systems – The FAA has established the UAS Integration Office to provide a one- stop portal for information. Information can be found on the FAA website at www.faa.gov/uaswww.faa.gov/uas Hot Topics for Airports

21 Federal Aviation Administration 21 Georgia Airports Association February 17, 2016 Planning Project Coordination - We can be extremely helpful in project coordination both on and off the airport, but the key in this is early coordination. –We want to ensure you do not inadvertently impact your airport with both on or off airport development. Potential impacts include – limiting future growth of your airport both physically and financially or reducing capacity through airspace restrictions –We want to make sure you are compliant with laws and regulations such as NEPA, 14 CFR part 77 and part 139; and in compliance with grant assurances. Runway Protection Zone (RPZ) – On September 27, 2012, the FAA Office of Airports issued interim guidance to clarify FAA Advisory Circular 5300-13 Airport Design. This guidance requests airport sponsors to provide an alternative analysis for any new or modified land use in the RPZ. Hot Topics for Airports
