(d) The WHA shall be submitted to the FAA for approval and determination of the need for a wildlife hazard management plan (WHMP) FAA considers: 1. WHA 2. Actions recommended in WHA 3. Aeronautical activity at the airport – frequency and size 4. Views of the certificate holder 5. Views of the airport users 6. Other known factors relating to wildlife hazards of which the FAA is aware

(e) If a WHMP is needed, the certificate holder shall formulate and implement a plan using the WHA as a basis. The plan shall… 1. Provide measures to alleviate, or eliminate wildlife hazards… 2. Be submitted to, and approved by, the FAA prior to implementation 3. …become a part of the Airport Certification Manual

(f) Plan shall include at least the following: 1. List individuals having authority and responsibility for implementation of each aspect 2. A list prioritizing the following actions identified in the WHA and target dates for their initiation and completion 3. Requirements for and, where applicable, copies of local, State, and Federal wildlife control permits 4. Identification of resources that the certificate holder will provide to implement the plan
