The activities for the implementation of projects/activities foreseen in the ERNIP edition in force were carried forward. - in 2017 were carried forward the activities started in 2016 to solve the issues of air traffic flows in the FIR Bucharest generated by the reorganization of the Bulgarian airspace caused by the reorganization of the air traffic flows in the UDROS-ODERO area due to the Crimean conflicts, and subsequently, due to the Middle East conflicts. Within the mentioned context, ROMATSA addressed EUROCONTROL and the involved countries - Bulgaria and Turkey - an invitation to organize an official meeting to present the results obtained by ROMATSA following the summer season of 2016 to identify the most suitable solutions for network improvement, convenient for all parties. The official meeting took place between 12 and 13 January 2017, and the discussions took place without any favorable results. - activities regarding the implementation of a changed ATS en-route structure in the vicinity of CTR Iasi The three new routes - Y32, Y33 and Y34 - were implemented on 2 March 2017. This context includes as well the change of a route segment on T802, namely for lowering the minimum level to optimize/streamline flight operations for landing/take- off to/from Chisinau. This change has been approved and shall be implemented on the AIRAC cycle date of April 2018. - activities regarding the implementation of a changed route structure in the vicinity of CTR Craiova Two routes were changed, ATS - Y88 and T226, regarding the lowest level of flight on the airway on two segments in the specified routes. The change shall take effect on the AIRAC cycle date of April 2018. The necessary steps have been taken to accept the CMSA's approval for changes additional to those mentioned in the ATS route structure in the vicinity of CTR Craiova, which will result in the streamline of flight operations for aircrafts departing and landing in Craiova, meaning that they will permanently be improved in a controlled airspace, and it will consequently increase the ATM safety. These changes are: - the expansion of the T285 route by entering a new route segment TITEK-CRV - 2 - - WPT defined as IAR T226 with (AAAAA) North West CTR Craiova limit - AAAAA-SODGO FL055 minim - WPT defined as IAR T226 with (BBBBB) South East Craiova CTR limit - BBBBB-AAAAA FL055 minim. The provided implementation deadline is the AIRAC cycle date available as soon as possible after taking all the steps necessary to obtain the approval of changing the system, according to the regulations in force. - activities concerning the implementation of two new ATS routes interfering with Ukraine and of a new ATS route between FIR Chişinău, Bucharest and Sofia. After obtaining the CMSA approval, activities to prepare the documentation for obtaining the approval of the ATM system change shall be performed. Implementation deadline: April 2019 - medium-term operational capacity planning Within the meaning of the participation in the NETOPS Capacity Planning group activities: A. Operational capacity planning during the summer of 2018: - the optimization of the coding of sector configurations for ACC Bucharest, according to the tender book of the ”Provision of CACD Data" document - Network Operations Handbook, ed. 12.1, 09.03.2017; - the determination of the capacity of the DINAR (DINSI + ARGEŞ) merged sector by organizing a real-time simulation within the Bucharest DR Simulator. To support this simulation, SMR has designed dedicated exercises with gradually increased traffic load according to actual traffic peaks and according to the STATFOR Base forecast for the summer of 2018. B. The review of the STATFOR Base Forecast for the medium-term traffic evolution (published in March 2018) and the estimation, with the help of the NEST application, of the number of sectors required to be available during the week and in the weekends, in the summer of 2018, by complying with the following (in the listed order): - the classification within the declared sector capacities; - the reduction of the ATC overload; - reducing the number of operating positions used. - the participation in the activities coordinated by the ATM System Service in order to expand the operation of the FRA at night between the ATC from Bucharest, Budapest and Sofia - SEEN-FRA. The activities carried out in the line of business of the Management of En-Route experts are related to the preparation of the supporting documentation for the implementation of the SEEN-FRA concept, submitted to RCAA and Airspace Management Council in order to obtain the Airspace Management Council's consent, the participation in the preparation of the safety study (from ROMATSA, the study shall be prepared by the Safety and Quality Directorate), the procedures for cooperation between the ATS units involved (LoA), the participation in - 3 - the issuance of AIC to inform air operators about the SEEN-FRA implementation, and the issuance of the AIS base to be published in AIP Romania. - the participation in the line of business of the Management of En-Route experts, in the analysis of the draft laws and regulations sent to for consultation by RCAA, MT (Air Code, Government Decision no. 9012/2010, etc.), and the provision of the opinion concerning new legislative proposals on the expert line of responsibility. At present, at European level, EASA is performing a wide process for the amendment/alignment of the applicable in the NSA/ATM field. Within this context, opinions are provided in the line of responsibility of experts on the legislative proposals submitted to the air navigation service providers for consultation, for example: EASA - NPA 2016-09/Air Traffic Services Requirements, NPA 2016- 02 on the technical requirements and operational procedures for aeronautical information services and aeronautical information management. - the comparative review of the existing proposals for the national change of the Air Code; - the legal interpretation, on its line of responsibility, of various European Regulations applicable to the operational field; - reviewing and preparing proposals and remarks for the regulation of RACR-ATS, ed. 3.0 and for PIAC-ATS, ed. 2.0, the 7th amendment; - reviewing the support documentation for the Network Management Board meeting (November 20/29, 2018) and preparing the detailed Agenda for the General Manager to attend this meeting (the General Manager of ROMATSA is participating in the NMB as Danube FAB representative); - the review of the supporting documentation for SSC meetings (on the line of responsibility) and the submission of the opinion to the RCAA as the representative of Romania in this forum; - internal coordination to provide a legally documented answer related to the national provisions applicable to the ATC strike (Social Dialogue Law No. 62/2011) by the ROMATSA representative in the Minimum Service Level operating group developed at the request of the Network Management Board. - to develop or update, as appropriate, operational procedures applicable to Class G en-route air traffic and to airspace services: Collaboration procedures between ROMATSA ATS units and between ACC Bucharest and the ACC (LoAs) adjacent units, ATC Instructions for Bucharest ACC Sectors, ed. 6.0/30.03.2017, Operational procedure for the distribution/agglomeration of the ACC Bucharest sectors, ed. 2/2017, The procedure concerning the delivery and acceptance certificate of the shift service, ed. 2.0/2017, ATCO Manual, ed. 6.1/July 2017, Procedure concerning the delivery and acceptance certificate of the shift service ATM-SMR-PIN 2131, ed. 3.0/2017, Operational working procedure without flight progress strips in the ATM ROMATSA System Phase 4 for ACC and APP, ed. 2.0/2017, Instructions on flight information service and on allerting service in FIR Bucharest, ed. 4.0/15.12.2017 (update according to the provisions of the (EU) Implementation Regulation no.
