›WE DO NOT OBJECT WITH CONDITIONS TO THE CONSTRUCTION DESCRIBED IN THIS PROPOSAL PROVIDED YOU AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING: FLIGHT STANDARDS HAS CONDUCTED AN ON-SITE INSPECTION OF THE PROPOSED SEAPLANE LANDING AREA. THERE IS SUFFICIENT SEA LANE AVAILABLE TO ALLOW A VARIETY OF SMALL SEAPLANES TO SAFELY CLEAR ON-SHORE TREES ON TAKEOFF AND LANDING. ALL OPERATIONS MUST BE CONDUCTED IN VFR WEATHER CONDITIONS FROM SUNRISE TO SUNSET. THE PROPONENT MUST MEET ALL STATE AND LOCAL REQUIREMENTS. THIS AERONAUTICAL STUDY DID NOT CONSIDER THE INTERACTION OF SEAPLANE OPERATION WITH SURFACE CRAFT TRAFFIC WHICH IS REGULATED BY 14 CFR 91.115, NOR DOES IT GIVE APPROVAL FOR SEAPLANE OPERATIONS ON THIS BODY OF WATER. APPROVAL AUTHORITY IS VESTED WITH THE OWNER/CONTROLLING AGENCY OF THE BODY OF WATER. TO ENHANCE THE SAFETY OF OPERATIONS, WE RECOMMEND: 1. THE PROPONENT REFERENCE 14 CFR 91.115 RIGHT OF WAY RULES; WATER OPERATIONS. 2. THIS LANDING AREA IS ESTABLISHED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AC 150/5395-1, SEAPLANE BASES.
