DRAFT
Challenges·Addresses sea level rise with the integration of higherground and levees·Provides vertiport needed to support sustainable aviationoperations·Shift runway approaches farther from neighborhoods·Addresses some FAA recommendations··Increases runway length by 157FT (15% of recommendation)··Increases runway width to 75FT··Increases runway separation +100FT·Replace infrastructure that is at the end of its life cycle,lowering operational cost·Provides additional taxilane to increase safetyOpportunitiesAlternative DescriptionThis alternative raises the elevation of the runway to integrate it into a new levee system. Additionally, this alternative shiftsthe existing runway northeast to reach the FAA recommended taxiway separation. Runway length is increased from 2,443feet to 2,600 feet by displacing thresholds and utilizing the follow on taxiway as additional runway pavement. This increase inrunway length results in the addition of 15% of the FAA recommended runway length.·Does not fully address deficiencies outlined in FAAAdvisory Circular recommendations··Only increases runway length by 15% ofrecommendation (+157FT of +1,057FT)Existing Fuel Facility Existing Terminal
