Final Supplement to the Final Environmental Impact Statement
GNOSS FIELD AIRPORT SUPPLEMENT TO THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FINAL CHAPTER ONE BACKGROUND This document is the Final Supplement to the Final Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS), prepared in support of the Federal actions related to the proposed runway and parallel taxiway extension at Gnoss Field Airport (DVO or Airport). This Final SEIS updates the previous National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) analyses to address changes in the forecasted aviation activity and the critical aircraft at DVO and adds an additional alternative for environmental impact evaluation. The SEIS has been prepared pursuant to the NEPA and its implementing regulations found at Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) §§ 1500-1508. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) published a Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) in June 2014 in support of the Federal actions related to the proposed runway and parallel taxiway extension at DVO. During the preparation of the response to comments on the June 2014 Final EIS, the FAA informally reviewed aviation operations activity from the FAA Traffic Flow Management System Counts (TMFSC) database associated with aviation activity at DVO. After that evaluation, the FAA concluded that existing conditions regarding the aviation activity at DVO may have changed from those described in the June 2014 Final EIS.1 Therefore, a formal analysis was required to verify the current aviation activity level and critical aircraft for DVO. That formal analysis was contained in an April 2016 Purpose and Need Working Paper, which was circulated for public review and comment. The April 2016 Purpose and Need Working Paper identified that the critical aircraft classification and associated runway length requirement at DVO had changed from what was described in the June 2014 Final EIS. -
City of Pittsburg
City of Pittsburg Emergency Operations Plan December 2018 City of Pittsburg Emergency Operations Plan This page intentionally left blank. ii December 2018 City of Pittsburg Emergency Operations Plan Emergency Operations Center Activation QuickStart Guide The City of Pittsburg (City) Emergency Operations Center (EOC) serves as support to the command and control by the on-scene incident response. When an incident occurs, there is often insufficient information to determine if the EOC should be activated or how long an activation may last. If this condition occurs, a virtual or partial EOC activation may be initiated. More detailed information on emergency activations levels is contained in Section 4.2.3. Once an EOC activation is commenced, the first arriving staff should use the QuickStart Guide to efficiently setup and operate the EOC. When activated, the EOC responds to the impacts that any incident has on employees, facilities, critical and other infrastructure, and business functions. The EOC carries out this function through: • Information Collection and Evaluation • Operational Planning • Resource Management • Priority Setting • Overall Priorities - Life/Safety - Incident Stabilization - Property Preservation iii December 2018 City of Pittsburg Emergency Operations Plan EOC ACTIVATION CHECKLIST COMPLETED Date/Time TASK Activate the City EOC by assuming the role of EOC Director. Follow building inspection instructions. Consider which EOC should be activated based on damage and inspections. Establish the level of activation with the City Manager’s Office. Use Everbridge to send an EOC Activation notification to staff. The EOC Supply Cabinets are in various areas and contain appropriately titled boxes for each EOC Section. Place the appropriate material at each of the identified workstation locations. -
Inventory of Existing Conditions
Buchanan Field Airport Master Planning Program Field A. INVENTORY OF EXISTING CONDITIONS Buchanan A > Inventory of Existing Conditions INTRODUCTION. Buchanan Field Airport (CCR) is the major general aviation reliever airport serving Contra Costa County and multiple communities located in the northeastern portion of the greater San Francisco Bay Area (see Figure A1). The Airport has been a catalyst for business growth in the region and has served as an anchor for the local employment base, as well as meeting the aviation transportation needs. Situated in an unincorporated portion of Contra Costa County, directly adjacent to the thriving urban heartbeat of the City of Concord, Buchanan Field Airport is a vital component of the transportation infrastructure serving the region for tourism and business. Buchanan Field Airport is well equipped to serve regional demand related to general aviation and business aviation needs. The Airport has a reputation as being an excellent aviation facility that offers a safe and efficient operational environment. The Bay Area continues to experience significant increases in business activity, commercial and residential growth, and economic development. Because of this, Buchanan Field Airport is also being presented with increasing operational and facility demands. Many of the areas surrounding the Airport, with many high quality homes and environmental amenities, have experienced significant residential development, resulting in homeowner concerns about the effect that the Airport may have on their lifestyle. Some of these homes and facilities are located within a two to three mile radius of the Airport. Thus, the Airport may influence the social, economic, and physical environments of the area in which it operates. -
Complaint Summary 2015
Charles M. Schulz - © P N Sonoma County Airport T S 2015 Complaint Summary www.sonomacountyairport.org 2015 Complaint Summary Charles M. Schulz - Sonoma County Airport (STS) The Runway Safety Improvement Project maintained Sonoma County Airport’s compliance with FAA standards and further enhanced operational safety in 2015. The Airport recorded a total of 229 complaints in 2015, which represents a 33% reduction from 2014, which had a total of 343 complaints. Of these 229 complaints, 200, or 87%, were Airport –related (as defined at the bottom of page 3 of this report). Having weathered temporary shifts in air traffic during 2014 due to the 6-month closure of Runway 14- 32 (during which period many residents lodged complaints for the first time), the Airport enjoyed fewer complaints in 2015, especially early in the year. The Airport recorded 152 complaints from first and second time callers in 2015, compared to 193 in 2014. New callers still inquired if there were changes to the flight pattern, perhaps indicating lingering effects from the previous year’s closure. First and second time callers accounted for 66% of overall complaints in 2015. The noise complaints were generated from all over Sonoma County, at various times of the day and night, primarily involving airline, corporate, and general aviation aircraft. A breakdown of Airport-related complaints shows that concerns about noise and low-flying craft account for the largest percentage, with a combined 73% of the total. Related issues, such as overflights and maneuvering, accounted for 27%. Non- Airport-related complaints accounted for 13% of the total. -

Sonoma Skypark News December 2017
SONOMA SKYPARK NEWS DECEMBER 2017 SKYPARK CHRISTMAS PARTY- This last Friday night a little over 100 Skyparkian’s celebrated the beginning of the Christmas season with warm greetings, beverages, good food, music, and a gift exchange. Darrel Jones and Kathy Carmichael organized lots of volunteers. Many of us decorated hangar, A-3, Thursday afternoon. I want to especially thank Marilyn & Bob Avrit for the outstanding table decorations. The airport supplied drinks and the roasted turkey and ham. Richard Craig & Sandra Hoke carved and served the turkey & ham. Marci Fahraji supervised the kitchen volunteers and generally filled in where ever she was needed. Thanks to all the attendees who brought appetizers, main dishes, salads and desserts. The party goers were very generous with their contributions to the Toys-for-Tots gift boxes, filling them to over flow!! I wish you all a Happy Holiday Season. AIRPORT HAPPENINGS Long time Skypark pilot and hangar owner Herman Bauer sold his Mooney last year and last month he sold hangar M-1 to Eric Presten. Eric sold his hangar L-2 to Skypark pilot Michel Oltramare. Skypark is welcoming new hangar owners Jonathan Clark & Lee Schaller to the airport. Jonathan bought my hangar A-3 for his Cirrus and will continue renting some space. Lee bought Jack Strehl’s hangar M-3 and will continue renting to the pilots presently in the hangar. Ken Thornton purchased a Piper Clipper recently and is learning to fly in it with Richard Craig as his instructor. This last Tuesday Ken received some unplanned cross-wind instruction when he and Richard returned to Skypark just after the big wind started. -
