The contents do not necessarily reflect the official views or policy of the FAA. Acceptance of this report by the FAA does not in any way constitute a commitment on the part of the United States to participate in any development depicted therein nor does it indicate that the proposed development is environmentally acceptable or would have justification in accordance with appropriate public laws.” Port of Chelan County Officials Mr. Donn Etherington, District #1 Ms. JC Baldwin, District #2 Mr. Rory Turner, District #3 Port of Douglas County Officials Mr. Jim Huffman, District #1 Mr. Alan Loebsack, District #2 Mr. Mark Spurgeon, District #3 Airport Staff Mr. Trent Moyers, Airport Director Mr. Ron Russ, C.M. Operations Manager Ms. Tina Stadther, Administrative Manager Ms. Felicity Lape, Finance Specialist Ms. Bobbie Chatriand, Administrative Assistant INTRODUCTION DRAFT Pangborn Memorial Airport ____________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION OVERVIEW The Airport Master Plan (“Plan”) is being prepared by the Airport Sponsor to assess and document the facility and service needs of the Pangborn Memorial Airport (“Airport”). The Plan serves as a roadmap for bringing projects, people, and funding together in a coordinated manner, and provides strategic direction regarding the Airport’s 20-year capital development plan and investment of resources. This Plan is funded by the Airport Sponsor, with a grant from the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) Airport Improvement Program (AIP) and funds from the Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) program. The Plan is prepared in accordance with FAA guidance, as prescribed by grant assurances and regulatory standards. Conformance with FAA standards enables the Airport to apply for federal and state funding to support the maintenance, expansion, and upgrade of Airport facilities. 1. PURPOSE The overarching purpose of the Plan is to document the orderly development of airport facilities, services, and equipment needs. The Plan describes and illustrates the Airport’s 20-year facility development needs, providing the basis for justifying projects as recommended by the Airport Sponsor, tenants, users, and community stakeholders. The Plan is reflective of input from the local community while providing for a facility that is: • Safe and efficient, in accordance with FAA design standards. • Economically viable and supported in a financially sustainable manner. • Aligned with broad local, regional, state and national planning goals. 2. BACKGROUND The Plan evaluates improvement needs with respect to up-to-date user information, trends, facility conditions, and design standards. The Plan was last updated in 2004; however, changes in FAA design standards, activity trends, and airport development goals mean that the 2004 Plan no longer reflects stakeholder needs. This update to the Plan addresses activities conducted by commercial service, general aviation, and military users, in addition to other aviation and non-aeronautical interests located on and off-Airport. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Introduction: October 2016 - DRAFT i Pangborn Memorial Airport ____________________________________________________________________________________ 3. PLAN FOCUS The Plan is principally used to identify future Airport facility needs and to resolve key planning issues. The following items are the key actions addressed as part of this Plan: • Crosswind Runway 7-25 Operational Justification and Length Requirements • Resolve FAA Hotspots to Runway and Taxiway Geometry • Address FAA Non-Standard Conditions on the Airport Layout Plan (ALP) • Terminal Building Facility and Functional Needs • Airline Market Potential and Opportunities • On-Airport Revenues and Revenue Generation; Airport Rates and Charges • General Aviation Service and Facility Needs • Future Airport Landside Development and Roadway Access • Future Airport Property Interests • Future Airport Agricultural Leased Areas • Update Airport Noise Contours • Update ALP Per FAA Standards and Checklists • Prepare 20-Year Airport Capital Development Plan • Update 5-Year Airport Capital Improvement Program (CIP) 4. PLAN DOCUMENTATION The following describes the core components of the Plan. Narrative Report: The narrative report documents the Airport decision-making leading to the recommendations depicted on ALP drawings and carried forward as part of the 20-year airport capital development plan. The narrative is arranged per the following chapters. • Chapter 1 – Inventory/Environmental Overview • Chapter 2 – Aviation Demand Forecasts • Chapter 3 – Facility Requirements • Chapter 4 – Improvement Alternatives • Chapter 5 – Implementation and Capital Improvement Plan Airport Layout Plan Drawings: The final component of this Plan is the ALP, which is a set of drawings that illustrate airport facilities and depict recommended improvements. The ALP drawings, which serve as the Airport’s official ‘record of planning’, are developed in accordance with FAA checklist standards and procedural requirements. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Introduction: October 2016 - DRAFT ii Pangborn Memorial Airport ____________________________________________________________________________________ 5. PLAN COORDINATION AND PARTICIPATION The Plan’s public involvement process serves to inform and engage stakeholders such as community leaders, businesses and interested residents, with the intent of incorporating public viewpoints into the plan. The outreach includes public meetings conducted at key milestones, stakeholder briefing presentations, and informational materials presented in various formats for public review. The purpose is to build an understanding of the master planning process, and establish realistic expectations for what will be considered and achieved. The following are the key public coordination and participation elements of the Plan: Airport Stakeholders: The Plan involves coordination and input from multiple local governmental interests, organizations, and constituencies. The following are key stakeholders that are engaged as part of the Plan: • Port of Chelan County • Port of Douglas County • Airport Users and Services Providers Planning Advisory Committee (PAC): A PAC was established specifically for this Plan because plans that involve diverse community participation are more successful and widely accepted than those without. The PAC serves in an ‘advisory’ capacity, comprised of airport and community stakeholders focused on guiding Plan recommendations to reflect community interests. The PAC is charged with reviewing interim Plan materials, attending PAC meetings, providing comment on Plan findings, and encouraging awareness and adoption of the Plan recommendations in the communities that they represent. PAC feedback is incorporated, as appropriate, into the final Plan. Agency Coordination: The FAA is the lead agency for this Plan, and primarily involved with the review of Plan documentation and formal approval of the aviation activity forecasts and ALP drawings. This coordination facilitates dialogue as the Plan progresses, allowing the Airport and the FAA to communicate their shared interests, and to mutually decide key Plan decisions that require FAA input. The Plan includes coordination with local constituencies at key milestones. Public Outreach and Participation: Public outreach is an important element of the public involvement process and serves as the opportunity for the public-at-large to learn about the Plan progress, interact with stakeholders, communicate concerns, and provide feedback. Public meetings are held at key project milestones, and public insights and suggestions are integrated into the final Plan. Periodic project updates are presented through fact sheets, newsletters, outreach events, social media outlets, and posted on the Airport

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.

  • SENATE RESOLUTION 8724 by Senators Parlette, Morton, Johnson
    SENATE RESOLUTION 8724 By Senators Parlette, Morton, Johnson and Berkey WHEREAS, On October 5, 1931, Clyde Edward Pangborn and Hugh Herndon, Jr. solidified their place in history with the completion of a 5,550 mile, 41 hour, 15 minute nonstop flight from Misawa, Japan, to East Wenatchee, Washington, aboard Miss Veedol, their single engine, bright red Bellanca "Skyrocket" monoplane; and WHEREAS, This historic flight was the first nonstop crossing of the Pacific Ocean in the history of the world, and was due in large part to Pangborn's revolutionary idea of releasing the landing gear upon take-off, increasing the range of the plane by fifteen percent; and WHEREAS, Without landing gear, Pangborn and Herndon were forced to land the plane on its belly in the sagebrush flat above the Columbia River, which they accomplished safely; and WHEREAS, While their momentous accomplishment equaled or exceeded that of Charles Lindbergh's transatlantic crossing, Pangborn and Herndon were nationally celebrated for only a short period of time as the country lapsed back into the depths of the Great Depression; and WHEREAS, This historic flight would have nearly been lost to the history books, but a dedicated group of airmen in the Wenatchee branch of the Experimental Aircraft Association, appropriately named "The Spirit of Wenatchee," have been hard at work raising awareness of the magnificent achievements of Pangborn and Herndon; and WHEREAS, Through the construction of a replica plane and regular travel to airshows across the country, the Spirit of Wenatchee

  • In 1922, New York State Created Its Medal for Aid to Civil Authorities to Recognize This and Other Types of Service Rendered by Guardsmen to Local Civil Governments
    In 1922, New York State created its Medal for Aid to Civil Authorities to recognize this and other types of service rendered by Guardsmen to local civil governments. It was awarded for the April 1900 service outlined above with a clasp inscribed "CROTON DAM, 1900." But this State medal was created over twenty years after the event. How many eligible recipients never heard of this State medal after its creation or had died in the intervening years can only be guessed at. At the time of the strike there was no official State award. To fill the gap (and to the rescue) came the Guinea War Medal created right then in 1900. The Guinea War Medal is the "medallion" of the Guinea War Society, also known as Veterans of the Guinea War. This group was formed in the tent of some 7th Regiment men at the strike scene and for some years thereafter held annual ~eunions.5 The medal is described as "a small commemorative coin" by one source.6 It is made from an Italian I0 centisimi coin. Although post 1877 King Umberto I coins could have been used, they may have been deliberately avoided out of deference to him. He was assassinated on July 27, 1900.7 The i0 centisimi used on the three examples of this medal that the author has seen, bear the likeness of King Victor Emanual I, who reigned 1860-1877.8 NOTE: i00 centesimi equaled/s 1 lira. The coin from which the medal’s pendant was made is composed of the usual copper-bronze alloy used for 1800s pennies.
