Executive Summary

National ATM Context Free route airspace (North European Free Route Airspace - NEFRA) is planned to be implemented in November 2015 along with the NEFAB and Swedish/Danish FAB. Implementation of free route airspace is expected to bring operational, environmental and cost benefits.

Traffic and Capacity Latvia has completed or plans to complete in the required time frame majority of the objectives, including implementation of free route airspace in November 2015. A couple of objectives pertaining to implementation of upgraded versions of the ground safety nets are under consideration and would be included in the planning process during 2016, based on the availability of appropriate specifications.

ESSIP Objective Implementation Based on the 2014 ESSIP Objective implementation data in Latvia, overall implementation of the ESSIP Objectives is either in planning phase or completed. The following objectives have yet to be completed: COM10 and NAV03 by the end of 2016, FCM01 SAF10 by the end 2015. Implementation of ground-ground automated co-ordination processes of the ITY-COTR objective is planned to be completed on time in 2015.

Introduction

The Local Single Sky ImPlementation documents (LSSIPs), as an integral part of the ESSIP/LSSIP mechanism, constitute a short/medium term implementation plan containing ECAC States’ actions to achieve the Implementation Objectives as set out by the ESSIP and to improve the performance of their national ATM System. The LSSIP document – Year 2014 describes the situation in the State at the end of December 2014.

The LSSIP documents are structured into 6 chapters to better differentiate the Stakeholder(s) accountable for the information contained in each of them:

 Chapter 1 provides an overview of the ATM institutional arrangements within the State, the membership of the State in various international organizations, the organizational structure of the main ATM players - civil and military - and their responsibilities under the national legislation. In addition, an overview of the Airspace Organization and Classification, the ATC Units, the ATM systems operated by the main ANSP are also provided in this chapter.

 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 gives also 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 a set of recommendations extracted from the ESSIP Report which are relevant to the state/stakeholders concerned. The state reports how they have handled those recommendations and the actions taken during the year to address the concerns expressed by those recommendations;

 Chapter 4 provides a set of the main ATM national projects which contribute directly to the implementation of the ATM MP OIs and/or Enablers and ESSIP related Objectives. The description, timescale, progress made and expected contribution to the ATM Key Performance Areas are provided by the states per each project included in this chapter;

 Chapter 5 deals with the ATM Regional Coordination. It provides an overview of the FAB cooperation and Projects and also all other regional initiatives and Projects 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 6 contains high-level information on progress and plans of each ESSIP Objective. The information for each ESSIP 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.

Note: Chapter 6 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 ESSIP Objectives. Each table contains all the actions planned by the four national stakeholders to achieve their respective Stakeholder Lines of Action (SLoAs) as established in the ESSIP.

Note: The information contained in Chapter 6 is deemed sufficient to satisfy State reporting requirements towards ICAO in relation to ASBU (Aviation System Block Upgrades) monitoring.

LSSIP Year 2014 Latvia 18 Released issue Chapter 5 - Regional Co-ordination

5.1 FAB Co-ordination

North European Functional Airspace Block - NEFAB NEFAB is a functional airspace block created by Estonia, Finland, Latvia and . NEFAB has established a programme with a programme management office (PMO) with the objective of managing projects and initiatives among the ANSPs in the cooperation. In addition there is close cooperation with LFV and Naviair in DK/SE-FAB concerning airspace development. In this cooperation the implementation of a seamless Free Route Airspace above FL 285 across the two airspace blocks is prioritised in the short term with planned implementation towards the end of 2015. The activity is targeted to connect Free Route Airspace in the two FAB´s ensuring a continuous Free Route Airspace. The activity is organised as a project called North European Free Route Airspace – NEFRA. This project is not aimed at airspace developments inside the two airspace blocks. The ANSPs in NEFAB have developed a 5 year business plan, covering the period 2014 – 2018 and an annual plan for 2014. The 5 year business plan describes the strategies for the period with key performance areas and strategic objectives. The annual plan transforms these strategies into activities planned for 2014 with defined deliverables and milestones. In April 2013 two key projects, Airspace 2015 and ATS Provision 2015, delivered the NEFAB Network Plan. The NEFAB Network Plan describes the operational requirements for the establishment of the airspace and service provision within NEFAB in 2015. 2015 is considered an intermediate step towards a performance scenario planned for 2020 and beyond. The individual ANSPs in the FAB-cooperation will implement the required operational changes and technical support to enable the concept described in the NEFAB Target Concept.

Regulatory Co-operation During the establishment of NEFAB there has been close cooperation between the 4 NEFAB NSAs, and this cooperation is now formalised by the NEFAB NSA Committee. There is also established cooperation between the other Nordic NSAs, by the 7-State NSA Cooperation. Meetings between the 4 NEFAB NSAs and representatives from NSA Iceland, Sweden and Denmark have been held, and cooperation are established on areas of common interest. This cooperation will be continued.

Civil-Military Co-ordination NEFAB has established the Civil-Military Committee (CMC) that consists of representatives from CAA and MAA. The function of the committee is to: - define areas of cooperation between the Contracting States within the scope of the NEFAB Agreement as regards military aviation; - enhance the use of airspace in NEFAB, taking account of military aviation needs, including military mission effectiveness; - provide for efficient and consistent application of the concept of ‘flexible use of airspace’ by the Contracting States; - provide for the development of arrangements for military training activities regardless of existing boundaries. Several meetings have taken place. The committee in 2014 was chaired by MAA Finland. and the co-operation has been fruitful.

5.3 Regional cooperation

5.3.1 Regional Cooperation Initiatives Baltic Integration Baltic Integration is stemming from ICAO EANPG/42/2 (December 2000), which established a Task Force (TF) to draft a Memorandum of Understanding and identify priorities for a common Baltic UIR or other type of ATM co-operation over parts of the high seas. Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland are members of the TF, under the ICAO EUR aegis. To the end of 2002 the Task Force developed ”DRAFT MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING FOR HARMONIZATION AND INTEGRATION OF COMPONENTS OF THE AIR NAVIGATION SYSTEMS IN THE BALTIC AREA”. The document as well as its Technical Annex was presented to the appropriate National Authorities. Cooperation has crystallized as Baltic CNS/ATM Transition Project Feasibility Study (2001-2004). The project produced a coordinated CNS/ATM Sub-regional Implementation Plan for Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia complying with recommendations of international aviation organisations and defining short-term needs and long- term prospective of air navigation systems in the three contracting states. The Borealis Alliance Framework Agreement The Alliance Framework Agreement (AFA) is a business co-operation signed on the 20th of June 2012. The vision of Borealis is to be the leading ANSP Alliance that enables its Members to drive better performance for stakeholders through business collaboration. On the same day the co-operation agreement known as NEAP (North European ANS Providers) was formally ended. The members of Borealis are LFV (Sweden), Finavia (Finland), Avinor (Norway), ISAVIA (Iceland), Naviair (Denmark), EANS (Estonia), IAA (Ireland), LGS (Latvia) and NATS (UK). Borealis has two objectives, the first relates to delivering value through business co-operation between the Members, the second to being collectively more influential by developing and expressing a joint position on common issues. These objectives will be achieved by developing and delivering a joint business plan. The Agreement does not commit the Members to work towards creating a single combined FAB between their respective States sometime in the future, but it does not preclude such an outcome either.
