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.

Resources include soils, groundwater, vegetation, wildlife, special status species, recreation and visual resources, cultural resources, Indian sacred sites, and Indian trust assets. Environmental factors include climate, air quality, noise, topography, geology, land use, transportation, economics, and environmental justice. All resources and factors within the study area are described in the affected environment section; however, only those resources and factors that could be affected by the alternatives are analyzed in the environmental consequences section. The No Action Alternative, which provides the basis of comparison for the effects of the three action alternatives, describes conditions in the future if no action were implemented. The analysis of the potential effects of the alternatives on resources is based on the professional judgment and experience of Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) staff specialists, their discussions with other experts and professionals, literature review, and field trips to the study area.

  • 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.
