Summary of 2019 developments:
In 2019, the State completed the big part of scheduled implementations, including ITY-ADQ Ensure Quality of Aeronautical Data and Aeronautical Information, ITY-ACID Aircraft Identification and ITY-AGVCS2 8,33 kHz Air- Ground Voice Channel Spacing below FL195 as well as INF07 Electronic Terrain and Obstacle Data (eTOD), COM12 New Pan-European Network Service (NewPENS). Some of the tasks (and in addition, some National projects), even if technically ready, are considered as still ongoing (ITY-AGDL Initial ATC Air-Ground Data Link Services, ATC12.1 Automated Support for Conflict Detection, Resolution Support Information and Conformance Monitoring, ATC02.8 Ground-Based Safety Nets, ATC17 Electronic Dialogue as Automated Assistance to Controller during Coordination and Transfer) as they are linked to placing in operations of the new ATM system (planned in 1Q of 2020). Also, significant progress is made in COM11 Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) in En-Route (to be finalized in May 2020) and NAV10 (the schedule of the latest is linked to the EGNOS Lithuania Project under GSA/GRANT/06/2017- 2). In 2019, important changes in organisational structures of Lithuanian NSA took place. Before 2019, the National Supervisory Authority of Lithuania was Civil Aviation Administration (CAA). In 2019, CAA was restructured by transferring its functions to two other sector bodies: • National Regulatory Body - Lithuanian Transport Safety Administration (LTSA); • National Supervisory Body - Transport Competence Agency (TKA). Functions of each are explained in Section 1.2.
Important legislative changes in 2019 are connected with implementation of the requirements of EU regulation 2017/373 laying down the requirements for providers of air traffic management / air navigation services and other air traffic management network functions and their oversight. SE "Oro navigacija" internal legislation was amended to meet the EU regulation 2017/373.

Introduction
The Local Single Sky ImPlementation (LSSIP) documents, as an integral part of the Master Plan (MP) Level 3 (L3)/LSSIP mechanism, constitute a short/medium term implementation plan containing ECAC States’ actions to achieve the Implementation Objectives as set out by the MP Level 3 and to improve the performance of their national ATM System. This LSSIP document describes the situation in the State at the end of December 2019, together with plans for the next years.
Chapter 1 provides an overview of the ATM institutional arrangements within the State, the membership of the State in various international organisations, the organisational structure of the main ATM players - civil and military - and their responsibilities under the national legislation. In addition, it gives an overview of the Airspace Organisation and Classification, the ATC Units, the U-Space services supporting drones operations and the ATM systems operated by the main ANSP;
Chapter 2 provides a comprehensive picture of the situation of Air Traffic, Capacity and ATFM Delay per each ACC in the State. It shows the evolution of Air Traffic and Delay in the last five years and the forecast for the next five years. It also presents the achieved performance in terms of delay during the summer season period and the planned projects assumed to offer the required capacity which will match the foreseen traffic increase and keep the delay at the agreed performance level;
Chapter 3 provides the main Implementation Projects (at national, FAB and multinational level) which contribute directly to the implementation of the MP Operational Improvements and/or Enablers and Implementation Objectives. The Level 1 document covers a high-level list of the projects showing the applicable links. All other details like description, timescale, progress made and expected contribution to the ATM Key Performance Areas provided by the State per each project are available in the Level 2 document;
Chapter 4 deals with other cooperation activities beyond Implementation Projects. It provides an overview of the FAB cooperation, as well as all other multinational initiatives, which are out of the FAB scope. The content of this chapter generally is developed and agreed in close cooperation between the States concerned;
Chapter 5 contains aggregated information at State level covering the overall level of implementation, implementation per SESAR Key Feature and implementation of ICAO ASBUs. In addition, it provides the high-level information on progress and plans of each Implementation Objective. The information for each Implementation Objective is presented in boxes giving a summary of the progress and plans of implementation for each Stakeholder. The conventions used are presented at the beginning of the section.
The Level 1 document is completed with a separate document called LSSIP Level 2. This document consists of a set of tables organised in line with the list of Implementation Objectives. Each table contains all the actions planned by the four national stakeholders (REG, ASP, MIL and APO) to achieve their respective Stakeholder Lines of Action (SLoAs) as established in the European ATM Master Plan L3 Implementation Plan Edition 2019. In addition, it covers a detailed description of the Implementation Projects for the State as extracted from the LSSIP Data Base.
The information contained in Chapter 5 – Implementation Objectives Progress is deemed sufficient to satisfy State reporting requirements towards ICAO in relation to ASBU (Aviation System Block Upgrades) monitoring.

LTSA is working to achieve high quality, secure and environmentally aware transport system within Lithuania. LTSA has been formed back in December of 2017, after completion of reforms which included merging of the Lithuanian Maritime Safety Administration, State Road Transport Inspectorate and State Railway Inspectorate. These institutions have been working since 1994 and after the reform they have started to act as a single unit with a goal to ensure transport safety across the country. From 2019 LTSA also responsible for safety in civil aviation sector. With these changes, LTSA seeks to develop an ambitious strategy for upcoming years by declaring its “Zero Vision” strategy. Entire mission of this programme revolves around safety in traffic. LTSA aims to achieve a transport system with no fatalities or serious injuries involving road, railway or water transport traffic. It is a long-term goal which seeks to ensure overall safety of the streets, waterways and railroads in Lithuania. More than 200 employees are engaged in work related to transport safety. Departments of LTSA are allocated all across the country – with main departments located in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. The work of LTSA consists of these main fieldworks: transport services, enforcement, investigation of transport accidents, educational campaigns and strengthening the awareness for transport safety within society.
LTSA provides various of services related to different transport modes. Civil aviation services involve:
- Flight permits for scheduled and non-scheduled air services - As a competent licensing authority, granting Operating Licence, which permits the carrier to provide air services - ICAO Statistics Programme coordination - Air transport safety and security enforcement
The enforcement role is related to supervision of transport subjects, flag state control and port state control. Accident investigation is directed to the thorough search for the “root” causes of the accidents and implement preventive measures or recommendations so that accidents would not repeat in the future. Social impact in transport safety field is dedicated to finding measures that could change the behavior of society members, like education, information, involvement of citizens and press, etc. LTSA seeks to be the guide and promoter of safety awareness in Lithuania.

LSSIP Year 2019 Lithuania – Level 1 26 Released issue 4. Cooperation activities
FAB Co-ordination The Polish ANSP PANSA and Lithuanian SE “Oro Navigacija” have been applying provisions of the Single European Sky initiative consistently. We began our active participation in the multi-annual SESAR 2020 Programme coordinated by the European Union and continued our successful collaboration in the Baltic Functional Airspace Block. Based on the outcomes of the Baltic FAB Implementation Programme Closing Report dated November 29 2016, majority of the projects presented in the previous versions of the LSSIP document were closed due to their completion. Currently, Baltic FAB States, Lithuania and Poland, conduct three main projects. Projects are being a part of the Action Plan to the Baltic FAB Development Strategy 2025. In 2018 Baltic FAB works were continued. In February, the 4th meeting of the Baltic FAB Council was held in Warsaw. The Council is responsible for defining the strategic directions of Polish-Lithuanian cooperation in the area of air navigation. This meeting was attended by Vice-Ministers from both States responsible for aviation. In May 2018, the research workshop “Air Traffic Volatility and its impact on ATM Performance” was held in Warsaw. The event was co-organized by Baltic FAB, FABEC, SGH Warsaw School of Economics and German Aviation Research Society (GARS). The objective of the workshop was to investigate volatility in air traffic and its impact on performance which is becoming a key issue and a growing challenge within the aviation sector. Organisers wanted to bring together academics and professionals to share different perspectives and combine all the contributions in one place at one time focusing not only on causes but also on possible solutions. In August 2018 in Palanga, CEOs of PANSA and Oro Navigacija have signed the Cooperation Agreement for Aeronautical Search and Rescue Service Coordination within Baltic FAB. Also, Baltic FAB organised two inter-FAB workshops, communication workshop in January and a workshop dedicated to performance in May. They also participated actively in all inter-FAB meetings.
Multinational cooperation initiatives
B4 Consortium
B4 Consortium was set up formally on 8 September 2014 by: - PANSA, Polish ANSP - ANS CR, the Czech Republic ANSP - LPS SR, š.p., the Slovak Republic ANSP - SE “Oro navigacija”, Lithuanian ANSP representing small and medium-sized European Air Navigation Service Providers and their 3rd linked parties from research (universities, research centres and consultancy) and industry (equipment manufacturers) community. PANSA (Poland) and SE “Oro navigacija” (Lithuania) compose Baltic FAB. ANS CR (Czech Republic) and LPS (Slovakia) belongs to neighbouring FAB CE. All 4 ANSPs are the members of GATE ONE.
B4 Consortium is a member of A6 Alliance on SESAR 2020 Programme content.
LSSIP Year 2019 Lithuania – Level 1 27 Released issue In February 2017, preparation of comprehensive Consortium Agreement was concluded. The signed Agreement establishes the principles of cooperation between the consortium members, the governance structure of the consortium and defines the responsibilities of members and the principles related to intellectual property rights. During 2018, B4 Members actively participated in the research and innovations activities in 29 SESAR 2020 Solutions under 14 Industrial Research projects and in works in Transversal and Demonstration projects, thus fulfilling their obligations set out in respective Grant Agreements. The work performed by B4 Members staff included development of innovative operational and technological concepts, execution and participation in execution of validations of new technological and operational solutions as well as contribution to all contractual and projects deliverables. As part of the project activities, B4 Partners also perform various project roles. The most important one is leadership of two SESAR 2020 Solutions: PJ.02-06 “Improved access into secondary airports in LVC” and PJ.06-02 “Management of Performance Based Free Routing in Lower Airspace”.
A6 Alliance
The A6 Alliance was founded in 2011 by six ANSP members of the SESAR JU – DFS (Germany), DSNA (France), AENA (Spain) renamed later to ENAIRE, ENAV (Italy), NATS (UK) and NORACON – a consortium of Austro Control (Austria), AVINOR (Norway), EANS (Estonia), Finavia (Finland), IAA (Ireland), LFV (Sweden) and Naviair (Denmark). In 2015, PANSA became a full member of the A6 Alliance. At the same time the COOPANS consortium replaced NORACON in all A6 activities and the B4 Consortium joined A6 in the area of SESAR 2020. The A6 Alliance has also concluded a collaboration agreement with Skyguide in relation to SESAR 2020 R&D activities, as well as with ROMATSA and HungaroControl in relation to SESAR Deployment Manager.
The A6 Alliance plays a significant role in Research & Development through active participation in the SESAR Programme.
The A6+ partners participate in 68 of the 80 ATM-solution projects, leading 30 of them. Furthermore, the A6+ partners hold an active role in transversal activities including the Masterplan and in Very Large Scale Demonstrations.
Since the launch of SESAR 1, members of the A6 Alliance have achieved significant results together with other SJU partners (development of 63 successfully completed SESAR solutions). The members of the A6 Alliance control more than 80 % of EU air traffic. They are responsible for more than 70 % of the investment in the future air traffic management infrastructure. Areas of SE “Oro navigacija” involvement in 2019: • preparation positions regarding to the policy and legal regulations prepared by the EU institutions together with foreign partners; • participation in the SESAR Joint Undertaking, SESAR Deployment Manager and initiatives financed by INEA, including the project of expanding the communication network with the development of the European network.
Gate One Gate One is a bottom up regional ANSP initiative established in 2013. The purpose of the coordination platform, is to promote the efficiency of European Air Traffic Management through enhanced cooperation among the participating service providers, as well as to ensure a more powerful and coordinated advocacy of the region in the European decision-making processes. Gate One covers 3 existing Functional Airspace Blocks – FABs (Baltic FAB, Danube FAB and FAB CE) and 2 non-EU Flight Information regions (Belgrade and Skopje) The members of the Gate One initiative, which is one of the largest regional ANSP platforms in Europe, agreed to play a more active role to explore potential for future inter-FAB cooperation. The airspace between the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea is one of the most important gateways of the European continent: this region handles air traffic in the directions of North and South, East and West, sustaining links between the central and Nordic countries of the European Union as well as with the continent of Asia and the region of the Middle East.
LSSIP Year 2019 Lithuania – Level 1 28 Released issue The actual developments of the European Air Traffic Management industry point towards the assumption that the air navigation service providers of the region, operating under similar conditions, can only be efficient in attaining their interests in case they create a closer cooperation in the coordination of strategic issues (and the operative issues being meaningful at the regional level). Furthermore, they need to strive towards representing a consolidated position concerning common technical and economic issues affecting the region and vital to the Union-wide picture of the Air Traffic Management.
European iTEC (Interoperability Through European Collaboration) Alliance European iTEC Alliance was founded in 2007 by three ANSPs: DFS (Germany), ENAIRE (Spain) and NATS (UK) with Indra as a technology partner. Later on, in 2011, LVNL (Netherlands) joined iTEC Alliance followed by Avinor (Norway) in 2016. The Lithuanian ANSP SE “Oro Navigacija” and the Polish ANSP PANSA officially joined the European iTEC alliance in 2017. iTEC Alliance provides a platform for synergies and thus cost reductions, helping to realise the vision of a Single European Sky (SES) with greater efficiencies and service standards for Europe’s airspace users. The goal of the collaboration is to develop a high-end air traffic management system for busy and complex airspace that meets the Single European Sky ATM Research requirements and enables significant steps towards its productivity. The members of the iTEC alliance can benefit from sharing of best practices, reduced operational expenditures by sharing development costs and knowledge of risks as well as from enabling accelerated deployment of enhanced systems and future operational concepts.
During 2018-2020 BALTIC FAB ANSPs will implement a joint iTEC Tests, Validations and Planning (iTEC-TVP) project. The iTEC Test, Validation and Planning project concerns the second phase of the PANSA migration to the iTEC-based ATM system. Oro Navigacija is contributing to the project, especially in the matter of cross-border DCT and FRA concept. Baltic FAB ANSPs experts keep working together to achieve sufficient level of cooperation between both ATM Systems: future iTEC Based PANSA System and Oro Navigacija iTEC System, improving interoperability.

As a consequence, 3 Baltic States applied for NATO to take over airspace defence and sovereignty infringement prevention functions. From 2004 Air Policing mission is took place in the region, formal LoA between NATO and 3 Baltic States was signed. This LoA establishes the handling of OAT and defines roles of and responsibilities allocation between Civil ATCs and Military Control Units. Some elements of EUROAT, namely: Air Traffic Control, Communication, Standard Military Formation, ARES Internal / External flight separation, Crossing of ARES are reflected in the LoA. There are also some provisions in National legislation considering NATO flights, LLF and Speed limitations. Implementation of this objective (AOM13.1) 31/12/2021 is included in National and Baltic FAB stakeholders Business plans. The decision of -to go- or -not to go- will be taken in due time. Eurocontrol will be informed respectively with requirements of EUROAT Annex 1 Chapter. The main focus on 2017 for all the stakeholders was a cooperation to amend Aviation law, which is still pending for government’s approval. By the end of 2021 it is expected that national rules, procedures, regulations according to EUROAT will be met. In order for this be established, training for ATCOs has do be undergone which is not yet established for Eurocontrol Institute. Lithuania's situation is unique because we only have civil ATCOs and no military ones hence civil ATCOs must undergo military OAT training.
