The five-year aviation program totals $609.4 million, up from $555.1. The total projected program has increased about 9.8% with State funding up about 4.1%. This investment will finance 820 projects. Federal, State and Local funds are the primary financial sources for funding airport construction projects. Federal monies are derived mainly from taxes on airline tickets and are distributed by the Federal Aviation Administration to local airports through the National Airport Improvement Program. State funds come mainly from flight property tax, lieu taxes on aircraft and aviation fuel taxes. As a result of the Legislative changes made in FY 98, this program was developed utilizing a “modified cash” management approach and is designed to maximize available cash and keep the aviation fund balance at a minimum. Several pending changes concerning funding are under consideration by the State Legislature, which could impact the availability of future state aviation funding. The estimated Federal grant monies will finance $481 million of airport work programmed over the next five years. The Federal Airport Improvement program has been renewed and more federal funds are available. With the passage of AIR 21, the federal assistance available for funding is expected to increase 12% during the next five years. The State’s subprogram for the five-year program is estimated at $62.0 million. The local sponsors must match the state’s contribution and it is estimated they will be required to provide an additional $23.6 million to fully fund the requested Federal projects. In the budgeting process, project funds are allocated to publicly owned airports in two categories and three subprograms: Program Categories: a) Projects utilizing Federal, State and Local funds b) Projects utilizing State and Local funds only Subprogram Categories: a) Maintenance b) Safety & Capacity Enhancement c) Environmental, Planning and Land Acquisition This published Program is formatted to list projects by Fiscal Year and Alphabetized for ease of readability. Although Subprogram categories are not listed, the individual information is retained in the State’s Database Program. State and Local funded Maintenance projects total $10.8 million; Safety and Capacity Enhancement projects total $47.2 million; and Environmental, Planning, and Land Acquisition projects total $20.1million. Maintenance accounts for about 14%; Safety & Capacity Enhancement is 60%; and Environmental, Planning, Land Acquisition projects are about 26% of the total. In the State and Local Program there are $68.2 million designated for commercial service and reliever airports, and another $11.7 million are allocated for public airports. The maximum State grant does not exceed 10% of the net available funds for construction. The maximum State/Local grant (excluding Maintenance projects) for fiscal year 2004 Program is $550,000. The five-year aviation program contributes significantly toward the satisfaction of system user needs by cooperative coordination of project development through the planning, programming, engineering and construction phases. ii Arizona Department of Transportation Aeronautics Division Five - Year Airport Development Program FY 2004 - 2008 Programming Guidelines 1.

    DOCKETED Docket Number: 09-AFC-06C Project Title: Blythe Solar Power Project - Compliance TN #: 232709 Document Title: Request For Joint Petition To Amend to Delete TRANS-8 Description: N/A Filer: Scott Galati Organization: DayZenLLC Submitter Role: Applicant Representative Submission Date: 4/10/2020 10:58:28 AM Docketed Date: 4/10/2020 BLYTHE SOLAR POWER PROJECT REQUEST FOR JOINT PETITION To AMEND DELETION OF TRANS-8 Submitted by: NextEra Blythe Solar Energy Center, LLC Submitted to: California Energy Commission April 2020 Prepared by: Section 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND NextEra Blythe Solar Energy Center, LLC (Blythe Solar), a wholly owned subsidiary of NextEra Energy Resources LLC, is the current owner of the Blythe Solar Power Project (BSPP). Blythe Solar files this Request For a Joint Petition To Amend1 (Petition) to delete Condition of Certification TRANS-8 which requires that Blythe Solar provide an avigation easement executed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). BLM will not encumber its land with such an avigation easement, therefore making it a legal impossibility for Blythe Solar to comply with TRANS-8. As discussed in this Petition, TRANS-8 was included in the original and amended Final Decisions in order to ensure compliance with a provision requiring an avigation easement in the Riverside County Airport Land Use Commission Airport Master Plan (Airport Master Plan). The requirement was determined to be a Law, Ordinance, Regulation, or Standard (LORS) and was not included to mitigate any potential environmental impact. Further research definitely proves that the requirements of the Airport Master Plan are inapplicable to BLM land and therefore should not have been applied to the BSPP as a LORS.

  • 6. Chapter Six: Current Aviation System Performance
    6. CHAPTER SIX: CURRENT AVIATION SYSTEM PERFORMANCE INTRODUCTION As previously discussed, the 2018 State Aviation System Plan (SASP) Update system goals and performance measures were enhanced and refined compared to the 2008 SASP. For the 2018 SASP Update, three goals were established to describe a statewide system of airports that fully meets the needs of citizens, visitors, and businesses. The goals established to evaluate the system are presented in order of priority as follows: 1. Safety and security. Arizona should maintain a safe and secure airport system as measured by compliance with applicable safety and security standards while supporting health and safety-related services and activities. 2. Fiscal responsibility. Arizona should implement cost-effective investment strategies to meet current and projected demand while remaining adequately accessible to Arizona’s citizens, visitors, and businesses. 3. Economic support. Arizona should advance a system of airports that promote Arizona’s economic growth and development. Based on these goals, performance measures and system indicators were developed that provide the framework for measuring the system’s ability to achieve existing and future demands, while assessing the overall health and adequacy of the aviation system. Performance measures quantitatively evaluate specific aspects of system performance that can be directly affected by project funding, policies, and other external inputs. System indicators are a new measurement tool in the 2018 SASP Update that generally serve as reporting mechanisms on aspects of system performance that cannot be affected by project funding, policies, and inputs. However, some indicators may influence a policy decision and/or be related to a performance measure that has an action associated with enhancing the system’s performance.

  • 3. Chapter Three: Identification of Airport Assets
    3. CHAPTER THREE: IDENTIFICATION OF AIRPORT ASSETS INTRODUCTION A critical function of the State Aviation System Plan (SASP) is establishing baseline data for each planning variable (for example, airport runway length) that will be analyzed and used to evaluate the overall airport system. The Identification of Airport Assets Chapter presents the results of an extensive data collection process utilizing existing Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) resources as well as new data that was developed through individual airport surveys and follow-up airport staff interviews. This chapter details the inventory data collection process and results, and is presented as follows: 1. Inventory Process 2. SASP Airports 3. Existing Airside Facilities 4. Existing Landside Facilities 5. Existing Services 6. Airport Activity 7. Airspace 8. Navigational Aids (NAVAIDs) and Approach Types 9. Airport Planning Documentation 10. Airport Development Constraints INVENTORY PROCESS The inventory process started with identification of the airports considered for participation in the plan’s analysis. Eighty-six airports were initially contacted for participation, including 16 privately-owned, public-use airports. The 86 airports considered in the 2018 SASP Update are made up of publicly owned and privately owned airports, including many Tribal airports. To initiate the data collection efforts, an Airport Inventory and Data Survey Form was prepared identifying all the essential data points required to evaluate the system. These data points included those necessary to measure the system’s performance as documented in a previous chapter. The inventory forms were pre- populated with data available in ADOT Aeronautics’ Airport System Manager (ASM) to aid in the completion of the forms.

  • 2018 ANNUAL REVIEW Introduction
    Arizona Airports 2018 ANNUAL REVIEW introduction The Arizona Airports Association (AzAA) was founded in 1979 as a 501(c)3 non‐profit organization dedicated to bringing aviation industry professionals together for the purpose of exchanging aeronautical information, assisting in the development of the air transportation system in Arizona, as well as fostering public recognition of airports throughout the state. Arizona is home to more than 80 public use airports serving every corner throughout the state. It is very likely that there is an airport in your district. Arizona’s airports are economic hubs with more than 43 million people traveling to or through the state on an annual basis. Additionally, roughly 700 tons of cargo are moved $58 Billion $3 Billion annually from Arizona’s airports. This results in staggering economic contributions to the Total Economic State & Local Tax state! Undeniably, the aviation industry is a vital and proven asset of our growing Impact Revenue economy. The Arizona State Aviation Fund was established in 1979 to provide funding for planning, design, development, acquisition of land, construction, and improvement of publicly 409,000 $21.1 Billion AZ owned and operated airport facilities in counties and incorporated cities and towns in the Aviation‐Related Payroll Jobs Aviation State of Arizona. The sources of revenue for this fund consist of the following: flight Industry property tax; aircraft license (lieu) tax; aviation fuel tax; Grand Canyon Airport revenue; investment interest on the aviation fund balance; and miscellaneous revenue sources such as lieu tax penalties and interest on tax collections. These aviation sources were developed and dedicated to meet the state’s aviation funding needs, creating a type of “user fund” where the users benefit from their contributions.
