Miscellaneous Provision
• Construction projects with discretionary funds may
begin before execution of grant agreements, due to
climatic condition
• Changes made to residential through-the-fence (TTF)
and disposal of noise land requirements
– TTF – adds language enabling a GA airport to enter into an
agreement with a person to access airport with property adjacent
to or near the airport
– Disposal of noise land – allows designation of noise land as
“buffer” land. Airports can lease without treating land as disposal.

Vehicle Pedestrian Deviations
• In FY11, there were 44 Vehicle/Pedestrian Deviation related Runway
Incursions (VPD-RIs) in AWP. This is by far the highest number of all Regions.
• To date in FY12, there have been 18 VPD Runway Incursions in AWP.
– By this time last year, AWP had experienced 22 so we are doing better, but…
– We need your vigilance as we move into spring and summer which are our peak
times for V/PD RIs.
• Nevada Airports are doing well.
– NV Airports had 4 VPD-Ris in FY11.
– There have been 3 VPD-RI this fiscal year
to date at Nevada Airports.
– 2 at LAS and 1 at VGT.

Incursion on 2/22/12. Aircraft overflew HNL
Ops Vehicle by approximately 150 feet.

Wildlife Hazard Management
• To date in FY12,
– A total of 123 wildlife strikes have been reported at or near AWP Airports.
– Of those, 116 occurred at Part 139 certificated airports.
– The remaining occurred at General Aviation (GA) airports.
• We strongly recommend all Part 139 certificated airports and busy GA
Airports conduct a Wildlife Hazard Assessment and develop a Wildlife
Hazard Management Plan even if they
have not experienced a “triggering event.”
• All wildlife strikes should be reported to FAA
at http://wildlife.faa.gov.

Runway Safety Area Program
• All practicable improvements to RSAs at Part 139 airports,
including NavAids related actions, must be completed by
December 30, 2015.
• GOOD NEWS: Based on the information we have, all Part 139
Certificated Runways in Nevada meet current RSA Standards.
• Not So Good News: We have 30 RSA
projects to be completed by the deadline.
– AWP program is faced with timing & funding
challenges in meeting the 2015 deadline.
– Our ACIP, includes over $400 million in AIP
funding for RSA projects. This means that other,
lower priority, projects must be deferred.
