FY12 AIP Projects Funded (Western-Pacific Region) Total: $470M Others includes the following: Access road Perimeter fencing Drainage AGIS Wildlife Hazard Assessments ARFF acquisition

AIP Funding for FY10/11/12 FY11 CA discretionary funds: $140M The reason that California received less AIP funds in FY11 than FY10: More carryover in FY11 than FY10.

AIP Performance Metric By September 30th, grant disbursement rate should be as follow: FY12 grants - 60% FY11 grants - 81% FY10 grants - 91% FY09 grants - 96% FY08 and older grants, close them.

Inactive Grants (No Payments > 9 Months) FAA needs to explain to DOT reasons for keeping inactive grants open. Grant condition requires sponsors to complete projects without undue delay. Sponsors with inactive grants will be considered as elevated risk. (required additional documentation). Grant inactivity is a factor in considering future AIP grants with state apportionment and discretionary funding. FAA may pursue unilateral closeouts for inactive grants.

Important Dates for FY14 Environmental (FONSI, ROD, or CAT EX) Events Due Dates Environmental (FONSI, ROD, or CAT EX) December 2013 Application Solicit Bids or Declare Carryover May 1 Grant Offers (approximate) June 15 Grant Execution (approximate) July 15

Are You Ready for FY14? By 12/31/13 you have: Planning complete Project on an approved ALP FAA environmental complete (FONSI, ROD, or submission of extraordinary circumstance form) Airspace review and approval complete Design complete and project ready for bid

Airport Environmental Every AIP/PFC funding approval and Airport Layout Plan approval requires environmental analysis under the National Environmental Policy Act. Action choices include: A simple Categorical Exclusion with no further action required A Categorical Exclusion that requires a review of possible extraordinary circumstances An Environmental Assessment (EA) An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) We also are the FAA focal point for: Title 14, CFR, Part 150, Airport Noise Compatibility Planning Title 14, CFR, Part 161, Notice of Approval of Airport Noise and Access Restrictions

FY14 Environmental Deadline Environmental documents should be completed by December 31, 2013 Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for Environmental Assessment (EA) Record of Decision (ROD) for Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) Submission of extraordinary circumstance form to support categorical exclusions. FAA needs one of the 3 environmental documentation to process a grant in FY12. 13

Vehicle Pedestrian Deviations We have already exceeded last years rate of Vehicle/Pedestrian Runway Incursions. Last year we experience a significant reduction. We need your increased focus on this as we close FY 13 and begin FY 14. Recommendations to Airport Operators: Train and re-train your staff who drive on the airport. Train and re-train your tenants. Make sure your tenants provide proper escorts for vehicles and pedestrians they give access. (There should be consequences for not doing so.) Conduct outreach/training for local Law Enforcement and First Responders (Airports are a different environment). Ensure Perimeter Fencing, access controls, and cautionary signage are maintained. “Change the Gate Code” regularly. If you have not done so recently, do it NOW!

Airport Capital Improvement Plan (ACIP) All proposed ACIP work elements must be reflected on an FAA Approved ALP. Your ACIP can include all AIP eligible projects for the 1-5 year planning time frame. Your ACIP should be properly sequenced. Expectation for AIP funding should be realistic. The ADO will only support justified projects.

3 Year Before Construction Scope the project Identify funding sources (AIP/PFC/State/Local) Identify NAVAIDS that might be affected Identify type of environmental review expected (CatEX, EA, EIS). Determine if ALP or Exhibit A needs updating Identify if Benefit Cost Analysis is appropriate

2 Year Before Construction Select consultant Initiate Environmental review (CatEX, EA) Update ALP, Exhibit A, BCA Refine work scope and cost estimate Coordinate NAVAIDS Instrument Approach Procedure Airspace, Air Traffic

1 Year Before Construction Solidify project scope Develop 90% plans and specification Update /revised cost estimates Finalize ALP update environmental review, BCA Review project schedule with FAA Be ready to accept grant the following year (based on bids)

National ADO Initiatives Geographic Balancing (Geo-balancing) National redistribution of resources to better serve our customers New Phoenix ADO to serve AZ and NV Phoenix office will initially report to LAX ADO LAX and SFO ADOs will exclusively serve California National SOPs under development to create consistency among ADOs SOP’s on CATeX, Controlled/Congressional Correspondence & Grant Processing issued by Sept 30, 2013.

Phoenix Field Office Office opened on November 19, 2012 Currently operating as Phoenix Field Office Current staff: 1) Assistant Manager, 1) Program Specialist, 2) Planners, and 2) Engineers, 1) Environmental Protection Specialist, 1) Lead Engineer Phoenix ADO, when established, will also serve Nevada. Sponsor assignments may require LAX ADO and/or SFO ADO support. Ultimately, office will have necessary staffing, i.e., Planners, Engineers, EPS for Arizona and Nevada. Collaboration amongst ADO’s and Region is essential. ADO budget is being developed to allow for travel to Nevada airports. Sponsor outreach and building relationships is essential. Sponsor outreach, communication and interaction with PHX ADO is encouraged.
