Challenges·Provides vertiport needed to support sustainable aviationoperations·Addresses all FAA recommendations··Increases runway length by +1,057FT (100% 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 safety OpportunitiesAlternative DescriptionThis alternative does not raise the runway elevation in a way that can be integrated into a new levee system. This alternativeshifts the existing runway southwest away from proposed levees. This shift south allows the runway to reach 100% of theFAA recommended runway length and avoid extending into the dock pond area. Runway length is increased from 2,443 feetto 3,500 feet. Taxiways are constructed on both sides of the runway to decrease airfield congestion and increase safety.·Does not integrate runway within proposed leveesystem·Requires the reconstruction of entire airfield·Requires property acquisition from neighboring golfcourse·Brings runway closer to nearby neighborhoods·Splits airfield increasing taxi times and carbonemissions·Requires additional obstruction mitigation Existing ATCTExisting RWY 13-31(To Be Removed)
