January 31, 2002
Polk County Airport Zoning Regulations Reference Guide This Airport Zoning Reference Guide is intended for development review and permitting technicians, planners, developers, and property owners. The purpose of the Polk County Airport Zoning Regulations is to provide both airspace protection and land use compatibility in relation to the normal operation of the eight (8) airports licensed for public-use by the State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) in Polk County, Florida. These facilities include four (4) publicly-owned and four (4) privately-owned airports as depicted below. The Polk County Airport Zoning Regulations limits the uses of land located around airports relative to the: • • • • • •
height of structures and objects of natural growth to prevent obstacles within areas aircraft routinely climb from or descend to runways; uses of land sensitive to airport noise to minimize impacts and potential nuisance litigation; uses of land in areas subject to aircraft overflight potential to limit severity of crashes for the safety of people in aircraft and on the ground; establishment of educational facilities; uses of land which result in the generation of in-flight visual or electronic interference, such as smoke, steam and electronic interference; and uses of land which result in aircraft bird strike hazard such as landfills or organic processing facilities.

The Polk County Airport Zoning Regulations establishes three (3) Zones of Influence and three (3) Special Requirements. This reference guide will provide the reader with the basic principles of these zones and airport regulations. However, this guide is not intended to replace the Airport Zoning Ordinance. The reader should refer to the ordinance for more detailed information, if necessary. Airport Zones of Influence Airport Height Notification Zone - Established to regulate the height of structures and objects of natural growth in areas around each public-use airport. There are two (2) subzones: VIEW MAP
1.
•
• •
Airport Height Notification Subzone 1 – for each public-use airport except Brown Seaplane Base and Chalete Suzanne Airport. This zone extends outward and upward from the end and sides of runways at a slope of 1 foot vertically for every 100 feet horizontally for a distance of 20,000 feet . (See Figure 1) Subzone #1 for Chalet Suzanne Airport extends outward and upward at a slope of 1 foot vertically for every 50 feet horizontally for a distance of 10,000 feet. Subzone #1 for Brown Seaplane Base is included within the Winter Haven Airport limits Airport Height Notification Subzone 2 – All areas not in Subzone 1. This includes all of Polk County. Any development proposal over 200 feet, a building approximately 5 to 6 stories, will require a “Notice of Potential Airport Obstruction”. FIGURE 1
Subzone # 2 Subzone #1 200 feet
RUNWAY 20,000 feet
2.
Airport Overflight Zones - Established to regulate the uses of land lying in specified areas above which aircraft must routinely operate at low altitudes. The Airport Overflight Zone includes the area over which aircraft routinely fly at altitudes of ≤ 50 feet above the runway surface. Certain land uses are prohibited within the Overflight Zones, including residential, educational facilities, healthcare facilities, places of worship, hotels/motels, uses by their nature which attract gatherings of people, and sales or distribution of gasoline/propane.
3.
Airport Noise Zone - Established around each publicly-owned, public-use airports to regulate land uses sensitive to sound levels generated by the routine operation of each airport. Development including the construction, expansion, alteration, moving, repair, replacement, and occupancy changes are regulated within the noise zones. However, the following exceptions apply:
Page 2 of 7
• •
•
Structures for which the cost of such additions alterations, or repairs are made within any five (5) year period does not exceed fifty (50) percent of the total value of such structures, Nonstructural alterations or repairs of such structures for which the cost of such alterations or repairs does not exceed fifty (50) percent of the total value of such structures may be made with the materials of which such structures are constructed, if otherwise allowed; or Structures for which no more than fifty (50) percent of the roof covering of such structures is replaced within any three (3) year period.
All land uses shall be either permitted or restricted in the various Airport Noise Subzones, as provided in the Airport Noise Zone Land Use Compatibility Chart (See Appendix 2 within Airport Zoning Regulations). Those land uses not specifically listed in said chart are either permitted or restricted based on their similarity to the land uses that are listed in said chart, as determined by the Airport Zoning Administrator. New structures proposed with any Airport Noise Zone shall comply with specific Design Requirements. Refer to Section (4)(C)2.b. of the Polk County Airport Zoning Regulations. Special Requirements No use of land, air, or water shall be made to interfere with the operation of any airborne aircraft or aircraft operations at any airport. 1. In-flight Visual or Electronic Interference – Land uses within three (3) miles of any runway of any airport shall not produce smoke, steam, glare, or any other visual impairments. In addition, no land use shall produce electronic interference or utilize high energy beam devices. Refer to Section (4)(D)1. of the Airport Zoning Regulations. VIEW MAP 2. Aircraft Bird Strike Hazard - Uses of land that, store, handle or process organic material that foster or harbor the growth of insects, rodents, amphibians, or other similar organisms that increases the potential for aircraft bird strike hazards are limited around public airports. Refer to Section (4)(D)2. of the Airport Zoning Regulations for land use limitations and restrictions. 3. Educational Facilities – The construction of any educational facility of a public or private school is restricted within an area that extends five (5) miles from either end of a runway, along the extended runway centerline, and which has a width measuring one-half the length of the runway of any publicly-owned airport in Polk County. Refer to Section (4)(D)3. of the Airport Zoning Regulations. VIEW MAP

How Do I Determine if My Property or Proposed Land Use is Subject to Airport Zoning Regulations? The following steps, presented in a question format, are provided as general guidelines to determine if a proposed development or property is subject to JAZB regulations. These guidelines are not intended to replace the Airport regulations and associated maps therein.
STEP 1. Is the subject parcel or proposed land use located within an Airport Composite Boundary? VIEW MAP
STEP 2. Does the intended use include a structure over 200 feet in height? Any proposal for a structure over 200 feet in height requires the Airport Zoning Administrator or local agent to issue a “Notice of Potential Airport Obstruction.” This notice, in turn, requires the applicant to file a “Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration” with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The FAA will issue a written determination with one of the following conclusions: 1. A “Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration” was not required. The applicant may proceed with the proposed development. 2. The construction/alteration exceeds the federal obstruction standards would result in a hazard to air navigation, or both. Then an Airport Obstruction Variance will be required. 3. FAA determines the construction/alteration would neither exceed federal obstruction standards nor establish a hazard to air navigation. An Airport Obstruction Permit will issued by the local Airport Zoning Administrator.
Does the proposed use pose a potential Aircraft Bird Strike Hazard? Uses of land that, store, handle or process organic material that foster or harbor the growth of insects, rodents, amphibians, or other similar organisms that increases the potential for aircraft bird strike hazards are limited around public airports. Refer Section (4)(D)2 of the Airport Zoning Regulations for land use limitations and restrictions.
If the answer to all of the above questions is no, then it is likely the parcel or proposed land use is not subject to Airport Zoning Regulations. IF THE PARCEL/LAND USE IS LOCATED WITHIN AN AIRPORT COMPOSITE BOUNDARY, THEN PROCEED TO STEP 3.
Page 4 of 7
STEP 3. Is the proposed land use an educational facility? If the answer is yes, the following regulation may apply. The construction of any educational facility of a public or private school is restricted within an area that extends five (5) miles from either end of a runway, along the extended runway centerline, and which has a width measuring one-half the length of the runway of any publicly-owned airport in Polk County. VIEW MAP Refer to Section (4)(D)3. of the Airport Zoning Regulations to review the related restrictions on educational facilities and the criteria for exceptions as granted by the Airport Zoning Board of Adjustments.
STEP 4. Is the parcel or proposed land use located within an In-Flight Visual or Electronic Interference Zone? VIEW MAP If the answer is yes, the following regulation may apply. Land uses within three (3) miles of any runway of any airport shall not produce smoke, steam, glare, or any other visual impairments. In addition, no land use shall produce electronic interference or utilize high energy beam devices. Refer to Section (4)(D)1. of the Airport Zoning Regulations.
STEP 5. Is the parcel located within Airport Height Notification Subzone 1? VIEW MAP If the answer is yes, the height of proposed structures or objects of natural growth may be restricted according to the applicable provisions of Airport Height Notification Subzone 1. Prior to site plan approval, the Airport Zoning Administrator or local agent thereof will need to determine if the use constitutes a “Potential Airport Obstruction”. The following information will be required prior to making the determination: 1. 2. 3. 4.
Nearest runway elevation Finished floor elevation (of proposed structure) Height of structure Horizontal distance between highest point of structure to closest point on runway
Using the given information, the Airport Zoning Administrator or local agent will determine whether or not the use is a potential obstruction. A “Notice of Potential Airport Obstruction” will be issued if the use is estimated1 to be a potential obstruction. A “Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration” (Form 7460-1) is required, to be filed with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), if a Notice of Potential Airport Obstruction is issued. The FAA will issue a written determination with one of the following conclusions: 1. A “Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration” was not required. The applicant may proceed with the proposed development.
1
The information is calculated based on a prescribed formula. It is the burden of the applicant/land owner to comply with federal law.
Page 5 of 7
2. The construction/alteration exceeds the federal obstruction standards would result in a hazard to air navigation, or both. Then an Airport Obstruction Variance will be required. 3. FAA determines the construction/alteration would neither exceed federal obstruction standards nor establish a hazard to air navigation. An Airport Obstruction Permit will issued by the local Airport Zoning Administrator.
STEP 6. A.
Is the parcel located adjacent to, or in close proximity (within a 1 mile radius) to, a public use airport? Properties that are close to airports may be located in an Airport Overflight Zone or Airport Noise Zone. In these cases, staff or applicants should refer to detailed maps depicting these zones of influences (appended to the Airport Zoning Regulations).
IF YES, ANSWER QUESTIONS B. AND C. IF NO, YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE CHECKLIST. B.
Is the parcel located in an Airport Overflight Zone? Staff and applicants need to refer to the Airport Zoning Regulations to make this determination or seek assistance from the Airport Zoning Administrator (or local government agent). Airport Overflight Zones are established to regulate the uses of land lying in specified areas above which aircraft must routinely operate at low altitudes. The Airport Overflight Zone includes that over which aircraft routinely fly at altitudes less than or equal 50 feet above the runway surface. Certain land uses are prohibited within the Overflight Zones, including residential, educational facilities, healthcare facilities, places of worship, hotels/motels, uses by their nature which attract gatherings of people, and sales or distribution of gasoline/propane.
C. Is the parcel located in an Airport Noise Zone? Staff and applicants need to refer to the Airport Zoning Regulations to make this determination or seek assistance from the Airport Zoning Administrator (or local government agent). Airport Noise Zones are established around each publicly-owned, public-use airport to regulate land uses sensitive to sound levels generated by the routine operation of that airport. Development including the construction, expansion, alteration, moving, repair, or replacement of structures, and occupancy changes are regulated within these noise zones. Some of the listed exceptions may apply to the subject parcel or structure. Refer to Section (4)(C)2.b. of the Airport Zoning Regulations.

General Notes Airport Height Notification Zone determination(s) comprise the majority of Airport Zoning actions during the development review process. However, Zones of Influence vary depending on each runway configuration. Depending on the location and nature of development, a variance may be required from certain requirements of the Airport Zoning Regulations [refer to Section (5)(F)1.]. If you are unsure where a specific Zone of Influence lies in relation to a parcel, please refer to the Airport Zoning Regulations with accompanying maps and airport master plans. The Airport Zoning Administrator will assist anyone if they have questions regarding the Airport Zoning Regulations.

Polk County Airport Zoning Regulations Reference Guide This Airport Zoning Reference Guide is intended for development review and permitting technicians, planners, developers, and property owners. The purpose of the Polk County Airport Zoning Regulations is to provide both airspace protection and land use compatibility in relation to the normal operation of the eight (8) airports licensed for public-use by the State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) in Polk County, Florida. These facilities include four (4) publicly-owned and four (4) privately-owned airports as depicted below. The Polk County Airport Zoning Regulations limits the uses of land located around airports relative to the: • • • • • •
height of structures and objects of natural growth to prevent obstacles within areas aircraft routinely climb from or descend to runways; uses of land sensitive to airport noise to minimize impacts and potential nuisance litigation; uses of land in areas subject to aircraft overflight potential to limit severity of crashes for the safety of people in aircraft and on the ground; establishment of educational facilities; uses of land which result in the generation of in-flight visual or electronic interference, such as smoke, steam and electronic interference; and uses of land which result in aircraft bird strike hazard such as landfills or organic processing facilities.

The Polk County Airport Zoning Regulations establishes three (3) Zones of Influence and three (3) Special Requirements. This reference guide will provide the reader with the basic principles of these zones and airport regulations. However, this guide is not intended to replace the Airport Zoning Ordinance. The reader should refer to the ordinance for more detailed information, if necessary. Airport Zones of Influence Airport Height Notification Zone - Established to regulate the height of structures and objects of natural growth in areas around each public-use airport. There are two (2) subzones: VIEW MAP
1.
•
• •
Airport Height Notification Subzone 1 – for each public-use airport except Brown Seaplane Base and Chalete Suzanne Airport. This zone extends outward and upward from the end and sides of runways at a slope of 1 foot vertically for every 100 feet horizontally for a distance of 20,000 feet . (See Figure 1) Subzone #1 for Chalet Suzanne Airport extends outward and upward at a slope of 1 foot vertically for every 50 feet horizontally for a distance of 10,000 feet. Subzone #1 for Brown Seaplane Base is included within the Winter Haven Airport limits Airport Height Notification Subzone 2 – All areas not in Subzone 1. This includes all of Polk County. Any development proposal over 200 feet, a building approximately 5 to 6 stories, will require a “Notice of Potential Airport Obstruction”. FIGURE 1
Subzone # 2 Subzone #1 200 feet
RUNWAY 20,000 feet
2.
Airport Overflight Zones - Established to regulate the uses of land lying in specified areas above which aircraft must routinely operate at low altitudes. The Airport Overflight Zone includes the area over which aircraft routinely fly at altitudes of ≤ 50 feet above the runway surface. Certain land uses are prohibited within the Overflight Zones, including residential, educational facilities, healthcare facilities, places of worship, hotels/motels, uses by their nature which attract gatherings of people, and sales or distribution of gasoline/propane.
3.
Airport Noise Zone - Established around each publicly-owned, public-use airports to regulate land uses sensitive to sound levels generated by the routine operation of each airport. Development including the construction, expansion, alteration, moving, repair, replacement, and occupancy changes are regulated within the noise zones. However, the following exceptions apply:
Page 2 of 7
• •
•
Structures for which the cost of such additions alterations, or repairs are made within any five (5) year period does not exceed fifty (50) percent of the total value of such structures, Nonstructural alterations or repairs of such structures for which the cost of such alterations or repairs does not exceed fifty (50) percent of the total value of such structures may be made with the materials of which such structures are constructed, if otherwise allowed; or Structures for which no more than fifty (50) percent of the roof covering of such structures is replaced within any three (3) year period.
All land uses shall be either permitted or restricted in the various Airport Noise Subzones, as provided in the Airport Noise Zone Land Use Compatibility Chart (See Appendix 2 within Airport Zoning Regulations). Those land uses not specifically listed in said chart are either permitted or restricted based on their similarity to the land uses that are listed in said chart, as determined by the Airport Zoning Administrator. New structures proposed with any Airport Noise Zone shall comply with specific Design Requirements. Refer to Section (4)(C)2.b. of the Polk County Airport Zoning Regulations. Special Requirements No use of land, air, or water shall be made to interfere with the operation of any airborne aircraft or aircraft operations at any airport. 1. In-flight Visual or Electronic Interference – Land uses within three (3) miles of any runway of any airport shall not produce smoke, steam, glare, or any other visual impairments. In addition, no land use shall produce electronic interference or utilize high energy beam devices. Refer to Section (4)(D)1. of the Airport Zoning Regulations. VIEW MAP 2. Aircraft Bird Strike Hazard - Uses of land that, store, handle or process organic material that foster or harbor the growth of insects, rodents, amphibians, or other similar organisms that increases the potential for aircraft bird strike hazards are limited around public airports. Refer to Section (4)(D)2. of the Airport Zoning Regulations for land use limitations and restrictions. 3. Educational Facilities – The construction of any educational facility of a public or private school is restricted within an area that extends five (5) miles from either end of a runway, along the extended runway centerline, and which has a width measuring one-half the length of the runway of any publicly-owned airport in Polk County. Refer to Section (4)(D)3. of the Airport Zoning Regulations. VIEW MAP
Page 3 of 7
How Do I Determine if My Property or Proposed Land Use is Subject to Airport Zoning Regulations? The following steps, presented in a question format, are provided as general guidelines to determine if a proposed development or property is subject to JAZB regulations. These guidelines are not intended to replace the Airport regulations and associated maps therein.
STEP 1. Is the subject parcel or proposed land use located within an Airport Composite Boundary? VIEW MAP
STEP 2. Does the intended use include a structure over 200 feet in height? Any proposal for a structure over 200 feet in height requires the Airport Zoning Administrator or local agent to issue a “Notice of Potential Airport Obstruction.” This notice, in turn, requires the applicant to file a “Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration” with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The FAA will issue a written determination with one of the following conclusions: 1. A “Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration” was not required. The applicant may proceed with the proposed development. 2. The construction/alteration exceeds the federal obstruction standards would result in a hazard to air navigation, or both. Then an Airport Obstruction Variance will be required. 3. FAA determines the construction/alteration would neither exceed federal obstruction standards nor establish a hazard to air navigation. An Airport Obstruction Permit will issued by the local Airport Zoning Administrator.
Does the proposed use pose a potential Aircraft Bird Strike Hazard? Uses of land that, store, handle or process organic material that foster or harbor the growth of insects, rodents, amphibians, or other similar organisms that increases the potential for aircraft bird strike hazards are limited around public airports. Refer Section (4)(D)2 of the Airport Zoning Regulations for land use limitations and restrictions.
If the answer to all of the above questions is no, then it is likely the parcel or proposed land use is not subject to Airport Zoning Regulations. IF THE PARCEL/LAND USE IS LOCATED WITHIN AN AIRPORT COMPOSITE BOUNDARY, THEN PROCEED TO STEP 3.
Page 4 of 7
STEP 3. Is the proposed land use an educational facility? If the answer is yes, the following regulation may apply. The construction of any educational facility of a public or private school is restricted within an area that extends five (5) miles from either end of a runway, along the extended runway centerline, and which has a width measuring one-half the length of the runway of any publicly-owned airport in Polk County. VIEW MAP Refer to Section (4)(D)3. of the Airport Zoning Regulations to review the related restrictions on educational facilities and the criteria for exceptions as granted by the Airport Zoning Board of Adjustments.
STEP 4. Is the parcel or proposed land use located within an In-Flight Visual or Electronic Interference Zone? VIEW MAP If the answer is yes, the following regulation may apply. Land uses within three (3) miles of any runway of any airport shall not produce smoke, steam, glare, or any other visual impairments. In addition, no land use shall produce electronic interference or utilize high energy beam devices. Refer to Section (4)(D)1. of the Airport Zoning Regulations.
STEP 5. Is the parcel located within Airport Height Notification Subzone 1? VIEW MAP If the answer is yes, the height of proposed structures or objects of natural growth may be restricted according to the applicable provisions of Airport Height Notification Subzone 1. Prior to site plan approval, the Airport Zoning Administrator or local agent thereof will need to determine if the use constitutes a “Potential Airport Obstruction”. The following information will be required prior to making the determination: 1. 2. 3. 4.
Nearest runway elevation Finished floor elevation (of proposed structure) Height of structure Horizontal distance between highest point of structure to closest point on runway
Using the given information, the Airport Zoning Administrator or local agent will determine whether or not the use is a potential obstruction. A “Notice of Potential Airport Obstruction” will be issued if the use is estimated1 to be a potential obstruction. A “Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration” (Form 7460-1) is required, to be filed with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), if a Notice of Potential Airport Obstruction is issued. The FAA will issue a written determination with one of the following conclusions: 1. A “Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration” was not required. The applicant may proceed with the proposed development.
1
The information is calculated based on a prescribed formula. It is the burden of the applicant/land owner to comply with federal law.
Page 5 of 7
2. The construction/alteration exceeds the federal obstruction standards would result in a hazard to air navigation, or both. Then an Airport Obstruction Variance will be required. 3. FAA determines the construction/alteration would neither exceed federal obstruction standards nor establish a hazard to air navigation. An Airport Obstruction Permit will issued by the local Airport Zoning Administrator.
STEP 6. A.
Is the parcel located adjacent to, or in close proximity (within a 1 mile radius) to, a public use airport? Properties that are close to airports may be located in an Airport Overflight Zone or Airport Noise Zone. In these cases, staff or applicants should refer to detailed maps depicting these zones of influences (appended to the Airport Zoning Regulations).
IF YES, ANSWER QUESTIONS B. AND C. IF NO, YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE CHECKLIST. B.
Is the parcel located in an Airport Overflight Zone? Staff and applicants need to refer to the Airport Zoning Regulations to make this determination or seek assistance from the Airport Zoning Administrator (or local government agent). Airport Overflight Zones are established to regulate the uses of land lying in specified areas above which aircraft must routinely operate at low altitudes. The Airport Overflight Zone includes that over which aircraft routinely fly at altitudes less than or equal 50 feet above the runway surface. Certain land uses are prohibited within the Overflight Zones, including residential, educational facilities, healthcare facilities, places of worship, hotels/motels, uses by their nature which attract gatherings of people, and sales or distribution of gasoline/propane.
C. Is the parcel located in an Airport Noise Zone? Staff and applicants need to refer to the Airport Zoning Regulations to make this determination or seek assistance from the Airport Zoning Administrator (or local government agent). Airport Noise Zones are established around each publicly-owned, public-use airport to regulate land uses sensitive to sound levels generated by the routine operation of that airport. Development including the construction, expansion, alteration, moving, repair, or replacement of structures, and occupancy changes are regulated within these noise zones. Some of the listed exceptions may apply to the subject parcel or structure. Refer to Section (4)(C)2.b. of the Airport Zoning Regulations.
Page 6 of 7
General Notes Airport Height Notification Zone determination(s) comprise the majority of Airport Zoning actions during the development review process. However, Zones of Influence vary depending on each runway configuration. Depending on the location and nature of development, a variance may be required from certain requirements of the Airport Zoning Regulations [refer to Section (5)(F)1.]. If you are unsure where a specific Zone of Influence lies in relation to a parcel, please refer to the Airport Zoning Regulations with accompanying maps and airport master plans. The Airport Zoning Administrator will assist anyone if they have questions regarding the Airport Zoning Regulations.

This data, when plotted, should match the site depiction submitted under ITEM #20. ITEM #11. NAD 83 is preferred; however, latitude/longitude may be submitted in NAD 27. Also, in some geographic areas where NAD 27 and NAD 83 are not available other datums may be used. It is important to know which datum is used. DO NOT LEAVE BLANK. ITEM #12. Enter the name of the nearest city/state to the site. If the structure is or will be in a city, enter the name of that city/state. ITEM #13. Enter the full name of the nearest public-use (not private-use) airport (or heliport) or military airport (or heliport) to the site. ITEM #14. Enter the distance from the airport or heliport listed in #13 to the structure. ITEM #15. Enter the direction from the airport or heliport listed in #13 to the structure. ITEM #16. Enter the site elevation above mean sea level and expressed in whole feet rounded to the nearest foot (e.g. 17' 3" rounds to 17', 17'6" rounds to 18'). This data should match the ground contour elevations for site depiction submitted under ITEM #20. ITEM #17. Enter the total structure height above ground level in whole feet rounded to the next highest foot (e.g. 17'3" rounds to 18'). The total structure height shall include anything mounted on top of the structure, such as antennas, obstruction lights, lightning rods, etc. ITEM #18. Enter the overall height above mean sea level and expressed in whole feet. This will be the total of ITEM #16 + ITEM #17. ITEM #19. If an FAA aeronautical study was previously conducted, enter the previous study number. ITEM #20. Enter the relationship of the structure to roads, airports, prominent terrain, existing structures, etc. Attach an 8-1/2" X 11" nonreduced copy of the appropriate 7.5 minute U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Quadrangle Map MARKED WITH A PRECISE INDICATION OF THE SITE LOCATION. To obtain maps, Contact USGC at 1-800-435-7627 or via Internet at "http://mapping.usgs.gov". If available, attach a copy of a documented site survey with the surveyor's certification stating the amount of vertical and horizontal accuracy in feet. ITEM #21. • For transmitting stations, include maximum effective radiated power (ERP) and all frequencies. • •
For antennas, include the type of antenna and center of radiation (Attach the antenna pattern, if available). For microwave, include azimuth relative to true north.
• •
For overhead wires or transmission lines, include size and configuration of wires and their supporting structures (Attach depiction). For each pole/support, include coordinates, site elevation, and structure height above ground level or water.
• •
For buildings, include site orientation, coordinates of each corner, dimensions, and construction materials, For alterations, explain the alteration thoroughly,
•
For existing structures, thoroughly explain the reason for notifying the FAA (e.g. corrections, no record of previous study, etc.).
Filing this information with the FAA does not relieve the sponsor of this construction or alteration from complying with any other federal state or local rules or regulations. If you are not sure what other rules or regulations apply to your proposal, contact local/state aviation and zoning authorities. Paperwork Reduction Work Act Statement: This information is collected to evaluate the effect of proposed construction or alteration on air navigation and is not confidential. Providing this information is mandatory for anyone proposing construction or alteration that meets or exceeds the criteria contained in 14 CFR , part 77. We estimate that the burden of this collection is an average 19 minutes per response. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless R displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control number for this collection is 2120-0001.
