Challenges·Fully integrates runway into levee system·Provides vertiport needed to support sustainable aviationoperations·Relocates runway farther away from nearbyneighborhoods·Addresses majority of FAA recommendations··Increases runway length by +557FT (53% 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 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 runway to taxiway separation. Runway length is increasedfrom 2,443 feet to 3,000 feet, to provide 53% of the FAA recommended runway length. A taxiway and a taxilane areconstructed on the southwestern side of the runway to decrease airfield congestion and increase safety.·Requires significant fill within duck pond area toimplement·Does not provide full runway length as recommended byFAA (+ 1,057FT) Existing ATCTExisting RWY 13-31(To Be Removed)
