12. Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Program Plans and Status 12 Federal Aviation Administration February 28, 2008 Preparing Airports for WAAS Steps To Prepare Airport 1.Review information on getting an instrument approach at: http://avn.faa.gov/index.asp?xml=ifp/index 2.Contact Airport District Office to determine Infrastructure requirements/improvements 3.Contact the ADO or FPO to determine survey needs and/or check the status of FAA-sponsored surveys at: 9-amc-avn-150-Survey@faa.gov. Airport Infrastructure Needed –Paved Runways Over 3200 Ft. Long By 60 Ft. Wide –Non-precision Runway Markings (Or Better) –Runway Safety Zone Airport Infrastructure Recommended To Obtain The Lowest Possible Minima –Parallel Taxiway (Reduces Decision Height, But Not Mandatory) –Medium Intensity Runway Lights (Reduces Visibility And Provides For Night Operations)
