New Mexico Airport System Plan Update 2009 - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

New Mexico AirportSystem Plan Update 2009

2009 AVIATION DIVISION CONFERENCE

• System Plan Update
• Economic Impact Update
• Land Use Review
• Asset Evaluation Update

• Goals and performance measure development
• Inventory of existing facilities
• Demand projections for aviation activity
• Analysis of existing system’s performance
• Future system needs determination
• Recommended system development

• Enhance Safety and Security
• Preserve/Protect Investment in Airports
• Accommodate Existing and Projected Aviation Demand
• Support Economic Growth of the Community

• 31 airports have multiple runways
• Over 80% of study airports have a paved asphalt surface
• Airports with full parallel taxiways increased to 51% from 45% since 2003
• 29 airports have on-site weather reporting (8 more since 2003)
• 30 airports have instrument approaches; 10-precision & 20 non
• 57% of airports provide Jet A and AvGas fuel service
• Aside from Albuquerque International Sunport; Four Corners Regional, Double Eagle II, and Las Cruces International each reported more than 100,000 annual aircraft operations

• Updated since 2003 study
• Used quantitative process to evaluate each airport’s role in the statewide system
• Considers aviation and non-aviation factors
• Uses FAA ARC system but is New Mexico-specific
• Provides baseline for evaluating minimum facility needs

• 29 performance measures evaluated (existing and future)
• Many provide updates on performance improvements since 2003
• Evaluates how current airport system meets needs
• Some performance measures are action-oriented, others are informational
• Used to determine where changes in the system are needed to improve performance

• Update from 2003 analysis
• Identifiable & quantifiable benefits of airports
• Uses FAA methodology and airport-specific data
• Airport interviews, surveys, phone calls, data searches
• Provides airport-specific impacts

TOTAL ECONOMIC IMPACTS

Multiplier Effect

recirculation of

indirect impacts

• $57M in state GRT from visitors; $20M in local GRT from visitors
• Comprises 4% of NM’s estimated 2007 Gross Domestic Product
• 93% of the respondents use commercial airline service for business
• 32% percent have customers/suppliers that use general aviation airports

• Uses Airport Influence Areas as basis for review
• AIA based on Part 77 surfaces and RPZs
• Preparation of diagram for each airport (except ABQ) for use
• Provides starting point for airports in considering land use protection

• Includes land along each runway
• Development should be strictly controlled and limited to on-airport developments, and be closely coordinated
• Height of any proposed development in area should be reviewed through the Part 77 process
• Noise sensitive land uses such as residences, churches, schools, or hospitals, should not be developed n this area
• Typically industrial, commercial, or transportation related
• Potential wildlife attractants or that have emissions that could be a visual hazard should be screened
• Avigation easements are strongly recommended in this area if non-aviation development is proposed

• Includes training routes and extended approach and departure paths
• Likely to experience overflights and the associated operational noise
• For safety and quality of life reasons, noise sensitive or accommodate significant groups of people should be limited in this area
• Avigation easements are encouraged within this area
• Notification should be required of property owners or potential buyers that the property falls in area
• Tall structures should be submitted under the Part 77 airspace review process

• Extends to the outer boundary of the Part 77 defined horizontal surface
• Experience aircraft overflights, however, at heights greater than others, less noise
• All land use categories are allowable within this area with residential development having the lowest density possible
• Notification should be required of property owners or potential buyers that the property falls in area
• Tall structures should be submitted under the Part 77 airspace review process

• Estimated value of each airport developed based on current costs (not ABQ)
• Value includes land, buildings, pavement and “ARC airport size adjustment”
• Update of 2005 analysis and inflated to 2008 dollars
• 2008 value is $1.7 billion to reconstruct airports
• Increase of $140 million since 2005
• Average value is $18 million

• Technical report (hard copy & CDs)
• Executive summary
• Individual airport brochures (summarize economic impact, land use drawing, asset evaluation, funding needs)
