  • Informational Handout: King County International Airport-Boeing Field Seattle, Washington
    Informational Handout: King County International Airport-Boeing Field Seattle, Washington Published Visual Flight Rules (VFR) routes for arrivals and departures. Project Background The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) cancelled two existing VFR routes for aircraft landing and departing King County International Airport-Boeing Field (KBFI) and replaced them with newly defined routes (retaining some of the existing names). The term “routes” can best be described in this instance as a “set of pre-coordinated instructions” that is given to VFR pilots. The routes enhance safety by increasing separation between arrival and departure flows into KBFI, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (KSEA), and Renton Municipal Airport (KRNT). Purpose of Changes There have been Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) events involving VFR aircraft arriving and departing KBFI, and these routes are intended to reduce TCAS events and enhance safety. TCAS monitors the airspace around an aircraft for other aircraft equipped with proper equipment, independent of air traffic control, and warns pilots of the presence of other properly equipped aircraft in the immediate area. Project Description The project results in a change to past operating procedures by publishing several existing routes for VFR aircraft to use when arriving and departing from either runway configuration at KBFI. KBFI Airport Traffic Control Tower (BFI ATCT) now has the ability to assign published routes rather than issuing tailored instructions. The new VFR routes provide better predictability, enhance safety, and improve the segregation of aircraft arriving and departing KBFI. What Changed The new VFR routes follow pre-existing air traffic flight tracks that are assigned by BFI ATCT and no new areas will experience new air traffic overflights.

  • Notice of Adjustments to Service Obligations
    Served: May 12, 2020 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY WASHINGTON, D.C. CONTINUATION OF CERTAIN AIR SERVICE PURSUANT TO PUBLIC LAW NO. 116-136 §§ 4005 AND 4114(b) Docket DOT-OST-2020-0037 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENTS TO SERVICE OBLIGATIONS Summary By this notice, the U.S. Department of Transportation (the Department) announces an opportunity for incremental adjustments to service obligations under Order 2020-4-2, issued April 7, 2020, in light of ongoing challenges faced by U.S. airlines due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) public health emergency. With this notice as the initial step, the Department will use a systematic process to allow covered carriers1 to reduce the number of points they must serve as a proportion of their total service obligation, subject to certain restrictions explained below.2 Covered carriers must submit prioritized lists of points to which they wish to suspend service no later than 5:00 PM (EDT), May 18, 2020. DOT will adjudicate these requests simultaneously and publish its tentative decisions for public comment before finalizing the point exemptions. As explained further below, every community that was served by a covered carrier prior to March 1, 2020, will continue to receive service from at least one covered carrier. The exemption process in Order 2020-4-2 will continue to be available to air carriers to address other facts and circumstances. Background On March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Recovery, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act) into law. Sections 4005 and 4114(b) of the CARES Act authorize the Secretary to require, “to the extent reasonable and practicable,” an air carrier receiving financial assistance under the Act to maintain scheduled air transportation service as the Secretary deems necessary to ensure services to any point served by that air carrier before March 1, 2020.

  • INTRODUCTION Airport Master Plan Update Aurora State Airport
    Chapter One: INTRODUCTION Airport Master Plan Update Aurora State Airport This update to the 2000 Airport Master Plan was undertaken to assess the role of the Aurora State Airport (Airport), evaluate the Airport's capabilities, forecast future aeronautical activity for the next 20 years, and plan for the timely development of any new or expanded Airport facilities needed to accommodate future aviation activity. The owner and operator of the Airport, the Oregon Department of Aviation (ODA), obtained and matched a grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to fund this study. ODA has organized a Planning Advisory Committee (PAC), representing Airport users and neighbors, to participate in the planning process. In addition to six PAC meetings, public involvement in the master plan update includes a website to disseminate information and gather comments and questions, and five open houses for the general public. The purpose of this first draft chapter of the Airport Master Plan Update (Plan) is threefold: • to summarize major issues that the Plan should address • to identify goals for the planning process and for the future development of the Airport • to determine the Airport’s current and future role within the system of airports GOALS Goals for the master plan update were a subject of the first PAC meeting held on July 22, 2010. The common themes of PAC members’ statements have been synthesized and are presented below. The goals are divided between two categories – goals for the planning process and goals for the master plan itself. Planning Process Goals The goals for the planning process should guide the conduct of the ODA, ODA’s consultants, and the PAC throughout the development of the master plan update.

    Pierce County Public Works and Utilities Brian J. Ziegler, P.E. 2702 South 42nd Street, Suite 201 Director Tacoma, Washington 98409-7322 [email protected] piercecountywa.org/pwu TO: Dan Roach, Chair Pierce County Council FROM: Deb Wallace, Airport and Ferry Administrator DATE: October 28, 2014 SUBJECT: Airport Security The purpose of this briefing paper is to provide an update to Council on the status of security upgrades at Pierce County's airports. Current Situation: The Pierce County Airport and Ferry division is in the process of upgrading gate access, fencing, and security lighting at both airports. In 2015 the division will implement an Airport Watch program to increase the safety and security at each facility. The improvements are being made due to incidents which have occurred at the airports over the last several years and at the request of airport tenants. Currently both airports are fenced with restricted access gates to enhance security, although there are gaps in the fencing allowing unauthorized pedestrian entry. These gaps will be addressed in early 2015. An electronic gate is being added to the north gate at Tacoma Narrows Airport (TIW) and the south gate is being outfitted with a mechanism to allow its use by those who are hearing impaired. Once that improvement is completed, 24 hour security will be implemented at TIW. Thun Field currently operates with 24 hour gate security. Prior to implementation, the airport commissions at each airport discussed airport security measures during the preceding year and staff coordinated the implementation of the security measures with airport tenants.
