AIRPORT REMARKS

Operational remarks

›NO OBJECTION, PROVIDED THAT THE LOAS REMAIN IN EFFECT. WE RECOMMEND THAT: A CLEAR 20:1 APPROACH SLOPE BE ESTABLISHED. IF THERE ARE OBSTRUCTIONS THAT PENETRATE THE 20:1 APPROACH SURFACE, THEY SHOULD BE REMOVED OR LOWERED. IF THE PENETRATING OBSTRUCTIONS CANNOT BE REMOVED OR LOWERED, WE RECOMMEND THAT THE THRESHOLDS BE DISPLACED AND APPROPRIATELY MARKED, SO AS TO PROVIDE A CLEAR 20:1 APPROACH SLOPE SURFACE TO EACH RUNWAY END. THE CENTERLINE OF AN AIRPORT RUNWAY SHOULD HAVE A LATERAL SEPARATION OF AT LEAST 60 FEET FROM ROADS AND OTHER OBJECTS FOR AIRCRAFT WITH APPROACH SPEEDS LESS THAN 50 KNOTS AND 120 FEET FOR AIRPLANES WITH APPROACH SPEEDS OF 50 KNOTS OR GREATER.
