    Study Notes

    Airport Planning and Development

    • The National Airport Plan provides the federal government’s perspective on each public-use airport’s role in the national air transportation system.
    • The State Aviation System Plan provides detailed guidance on how the state's airports can be developed to meet the state's aviation needs better.

    Airport Layout Plan

    • The Airport Layout Plan (ALP) is a set of drawings that graphically depict current and future airport facilities.
    • The ALP should be reviewed and validated every 5-10 years.
    • The ALP contains a tremendous amount of data, including existing and future airfield layout, facilities, lines depicting runway safety areas, object free areas, obstacle free zones, runway protection zones, the airport property lines, the building restrictions line, the runway visibility line, and the locations of the tower and other facilities.
    • The ALP includes approval signature blocks, airport location maps, and other data required by the FAA.

    Airport Maps

    • The Airport Property Map depicts existing and future facilities and, for larger airports, can go on for several pages.
    • The Terminal Area Map depicts the airport terminal and its surrounding facilities.
    • The Airport Property Map is often termed the "Airport Boundaries Map" on AIP grant applications.
    • The Land Use Map depicts existing and recommended uses of all land within the ultimate airport property line and within the vicinity of the airport, at least to the 65 DNL noise contour.
    • The Acquisition Map is a drawing that depicts how various tracts of land were acquired.
    • The Departure Surface Map depicts applicable departure surfaces.
    • The Utility Map depicts the location and capacity of all utilities on and around the airport.
    • The Transportation Map depicts major routes and modes of transportation that serve the airport.

    Airport Approval and Planning

    • Airport owners and operators must notify the FAA at least 30 days in advance of any construction, alteration, activation, or deactivation of airports.
    • The FAA defines "near-term" as 1-5 years and "long-term" as 10-20 years.
    • "Unconditional Approval" means the FAA has approved the ALP without conditions.
    • "Conditional Approval" means the FAA has approved the ALP with certain conditions that must be met.
    • "Mixed Approval" means the FAA has approved some parts of the ALP and rejected or conditioned others.

    Airport Data and Information

    • The Airport Master Record (AMR) guides airport sponsors on the collection, submission, and management of airport data and information.
    • The AMR describes the airport's primary operational and services data.
    • The Airport Certification Manual (ACM) addresses the requirements of the National Airport Plan and the processes to apply for, receive, and implement funds from an FAA grant.

    Airport System Planning

    • The primary purpose of airport system planning is to identify the need for a master plan update.
    • The Airport System Plan lists public-use airports and identifies improvements that are eligible for federal financial planning and development assistance.
    • The FAA may identify the need for a master plan update.
    • The Airport and Airway Development Act of 1970 developed and further expanded Part 151.
    • The Airport System Plan includes estimates of the amount of AIP funding needed to fund infrastructure development projects.
