3. 3 Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular - Update 3 This Revision – 2F Applicability Principal Changes New construction limit and current projects Responsibility for Safety During Construction Construction Safety and Phasing Plans Safety Plan Compliance Document

4. 4 Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular - Update 4 Applicability Whom this AC Affects:  Certificated Airports under Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), part 139  Construction projects for airports receiving funds under the Airport Improvement Program & Passenger Fair Charge Program  Not Required but Recommended:  Non-certificated airports without grant agreements.

5. 5 Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular - Update Principal Changes Construction Activities are prohibited in all safety areas. Guidance to incorporate Safety Risk Management is provided. A checklist for writing the construction safety and phasing plans (CSPP) is included and recommended. A guideline on how to write a CSPP is provided. 5

6. 6 Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular - Update Protection of Runway and Taxiway Safety Areas No Construction within existing RSA –RSA can be temporarily adjusted (based on aircraft operations) –Temporary use of Declared Distances –Partial runway closure No Construction within existing TSA –TSA may be temporarily adjusted to aircraft operations requiring a TSA = TSA width available during construction. 6

7. 7 Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular - Update Safety Risk Management Airport Operator to coordinate early in the development phase of the CSPP with Airports Regional or District Office: –Notify FAA during “scope development” phase of the project. –Provide documents necessary to conduct SRM (5200.11) –Participate in the SRM process –Provide a representative to participate on the SRM panel –Ensure all applicable SRM identified risk elements are recorded and mitigated within the CSPP Airport projects NOT typically requiring a safety assessment: –Construction or rehabilitation of facilities outside the air operations area. –Do not involve haul routes, material placement or line-of-site impact within the air operations area. (Appendix B.) 7

8. 8 Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular - Update CSPP - Checklist This Checklist is designed to AID in preparing and/or reviewing the CSPP – This is not a required submittal. The Checklist is keyed to Section 2. “Plan Requirements” and the listed elements: –Areas and Operations Affected by Construction Activity. –Navigation Aid (NAVAID) Protection. –Contractor Access. –Wildlife Management. –Foreign Object Debris (FOD) Management. –Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) Management. –Notification of Construction Activities. –Inspection Requirements. –Underground Utilities. –Special Conditions. –Runway and Taxiway Visual Aids. –Marking and Signs for Access Routes. –Hazard Marking, Lighting and Signing. –Protection of Runway and Taxiway Safety Areas. 8

9. 9 Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular - Update Guidelines for Writing a CSPP Chapter 3 is dedicated for this purpose The CSPP is a standalone document Guidelines are intended to correspond to the “Plan Requirement “ sections listed in Chapter 2 Each section focus on a specific subject Each subject is discussed in detail and maybe broken into subsections. 9

10. 10 Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular - Update 10 Construction limits – 2F Applicability  Keep equipment and construction activity at the specified limit per 5300-13 standard. (Table 3-1,2,3)  New construction limit apply based on the phase of the project: Scope development, Planning, Design... Current ProjectDoes new limit apply ? CSPP Already ApprovedNo Contract AwardedNo Planning PhaseYes

11. 11 Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular - Update 11 Responsibility for Safety During Construction On Airport construction activities are the responsibility of the Airport Operator (AO) –Safety culture is established by the AO –Safety is enforced by the AO Construction Contractor must comply with the AO’s plans for safety Airport tenants must also comply with the airport’s safety requirements. The CSPP can not be delegated to the construction contractor

12. 12 Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular - Update 12 Construction Safety & Phasing Plan (CSPP) The CSPP should be developed concurrently as the project is being designed. Outline/draft at 25 to 30% of project design Formal submission to FAA for Approval at 80 to 90% Provisions in the CSPP do influence cost CSPP to the extent possible should address “Plan Requirements” –Not every project may need to satisfy all listed sections under chapter 2.

13. 13 Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular - Update Safety Plan Compliance Document Both the CSPP and SPCD are the primary tools to ensure “Safety Compliance” during construction. SPCD must include all supplemental information that could not be included in the CSPP prior to contract award. SPCD must affirm that the construction contractor will abide by the CSPP. Format of supplemental information in the SPCD should match the format of the CSPP. If no supplemental information is needed – SPCD need not be prepared. SPCD should be submitted to AO for approval prior to notice-to- proceed is given. 13
