Challenges·Provides vertiport needed to support sustainable aviationoperations·Relocates runway farther away from nearbyneighborhoods·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 taxiway to increase safety OpportunitiesAlternative DescriptionThis alternative raises the elevation of the runway to integrate it into a new levee system. Additionally, this layout shifts theexisting runway northeast to reach the FAA recommended runway to taxiway separation. Runway length is increased from2,443 feet to 3,500 feet, to provide 100% of the FAA recommended runway length. Two parallel taxiways are constructed onboth sides of the runway to decrease airfield congestion and increase safety.·Requires significant fill within duck pond area toimplement (more fill than any other Alternative)·Requires the removal of trees within ROFA.
