CB3ECT'IVE5 Based upon our understanding of needs and goals of Eagle County, the requirements of the various Federal, State, and local agencies involved in the development of airport facilities, six specific objectives are to be achieved: 1. Determination of the extent, type, and nature of development required to satisfy future demand in the Eagle County area. 2. Determination of the future role that Eagle County Airport is to play in Eagle County and the adjacent area, and an assessment of its potential to fill that role. 3. Preparation of basic Master Plan documents for the airport, including a new Airport Layout Plan showing initial and future development and a Height / Hazard Zoning Map, 4. A review of potential environmental impacts which would result from the proposed development actions. 5. Integration of aviation planning into local, regional, and state cctTprehensive planning, and to establish basic land use guidance for on and off airport development. 6. Production of the documents in accordance with FAA Advisory Circulars 150 /5070 -6, Airport Master Plans, and 150 /5900 -1B, Planning Grant Program, and FAA Orders 1050.1D and 5050.4A, as appropriate. In order to achieve these objectives, we have prepared a narrative description of the proposed effort. This narrative is based upon basic guidance obtained from the Sponsor, the Federal Aviation Administra- tion, the Colorado Division of Local Governments, and upon the Consul- tant's assessment of project requirements. It is anticipated that the results of the study effort described in this narrative will guide the development of air transportation facilities adequate to serve Eagle County and the surrounding area over the next 20 years. The general aviation air trade area, which encaTpasses Eagle County and Parts of other surrounding counties, is an economically impacted area which is experiencing significant new growth, primarily in resort and recreational facility developu ent. Vail, Beaver Creek, and other ski areas are within the air service area of Eagle County Airport. Currently, primary air ca=nter service is provided to these areas by Continental Express (formerly Rocky Mountain) using the privately owned and restricted Avon Stolport. Eagle County Airport is the only other airport in the region with direct access to this area. The study ,proposed herein will accomplish the following: • Develop a detailed master plan for the airport, along with land use recarmendations. • Identify and review potential environmental impacts of the proposed improvements at Eagle County Airport. • Provide estimates of short, intermediate, and long term development costs associated with the proposed airport improvements. o Provide guidance in the development of the air transpor- tation facilities in Eagle County over the 20 year planning period. It is anticipated that the study will satisfy a genuine need in providing the local governments (County and Cities) with information needed for decisions relative to the development of appropriate facilities for the future, in keeping with the economic realities of the local situation. This study will have a secondary benefit in planning for the surrounding area, as well. The following task descriptions describe the intended approach to satisfy the objectives previously stated. The study will ccmply with applicable criteria, including FAA Advisory Circulars. The Environ- mental Assessment will be prepared in general accordance with _FAA C: Orders 1050.1D, 5050.4A, and other applicable Federal, State and local requirements. Approximately four months will be required to prepare the proposed Airport Master Plan Study reports in final draft form. This time period is based upon the assumption that there will be no exces- sive delays caused by reviews by the County, the FAA, etc., and also is based upon the assumption that public hearings held in connection with the study will occur after the study has been prepared in final draft. A public information meeting will be held at the completion of the Airport Master Plan Study. There will also be public work sessions and informational reports made to the Sponsor as re- quired. [!!yam!!:: WI �v_ �_•. As shown in the location map, Eagle County Airport is located in central Eagle County, near to the Cities of Eagle and Gypsum. -••.•r• •��•• ti �• v • No force account will be used in this study. The authorized representative of Eagle County in matters relating to this application is Mr. Dan Reynolds, Airport Manager, Eagle County Airport, P.O. Box 850, Eagle, Colorado, 81631 Telephone: (303) 524 -9590 Risk 1 - Purpose and Need �• ei .• •s� �• This task will highlight the background and address the need for the study. Emphasis will be placed on establishing the need for on- airport inprovements including terminal facilities and parking, access roads, maintenance /CFR /administration building, Army National Guard facili- ties, ground transportation, and alternative land uses. Special emphasis will be placed upon an analysis of the Airport's historical relationship to the unity and the surrounding area, and its role in the system of airports in the vicinity. In support of this effort, the consultant will meet with the Eagle County Airport Board, the Eagle County Board of Commissioners, and appropriate County officials to determine the background and future aspirations related to the development of Eagle County Airport. Task 2 - InventorY, Daata Collection, and Review of Pertinent Documents Existing pertinent documents, including previous planning studies, will be reviewed and additional data essential to achieving the objectives of the Study will be collected. Data collection will be comprehensive in scope, but every effort will be made to avoid the collection of superfluous or unnecessary information. Information sources will include the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the appropriate State, County, and City offices, airport tenants, and other sources as required. Emphasis will be placed on local inquiry and investigation to develop this information, particularly with regard to area -wide development, as well as local development plans. A survey and inventory of existing airport facilities will be under- taken. The purpose of this effort will be to develop basic data that will be useful in determining the future role of facilities in the airport development program. This inventory will focus on identifying the opportunities . and constraints inherent in the existing airport facilities as well as the ability of the airport to satisfy the requirements of additional aviation related development. It should be emphasized that inventory and survey will not be detailed in nature, and will develop only sufficient information to develop primary judgments relative to future airport development. No boundary. or building locational surveys, soil borings, or subsurface investigations will be conducted. The.review and data collection effort will be .a continuing function throughout the course of the Study. Task 3 - Aviation Demand Analysis and Activity Forecasts and Demand/ capacity Analysis Future facility requirements will be determined to a large extent by traffic forecasts of aviation demand generated within the air trade area serviced by Eagle County Airport. The forecasts will be developed in specified categories, in five year increments over a 20 -year time period. Forecasts will be developed in the following specific categories: • Total Aircraft operations (Annual, Daily) • General Aviation /Business Aircraft operations (Annual, Daily) • Instrument Approaches (Annual, Daily) • Local and Itinerant Operations (Annual, Daily) • Potential Commuter Activity (Passengers, Operations) • Recreational, Ski Related Activity • Air Freight /Cargo • Aircraft Mix • Based Aircraft (By Category) • National Guard Operations • Vehicular Traffic FAA approval of all forecasts will be obtained prior to their use in the study. In addition to preparation of basic demand forecasts, a capacity analysis of the existing airport will be undertaken, -and a determina- tion will be made of the adequacy of the existing runway configuration to accommodate anticipated future activity or whether additional runway /airfield capacity is needed. FAA Advisory Circular 150/5060 -5 will be used for the demand /capacity analysis. The National Guard will also be surveyed to identify existing and forecast levels of opera- tions, size and scope of facilities, and staffing levels for known or anticipated mission requirements. Task 4a - Primary Facility Remnxawnts It will be necessary to determine facility requirements to satisfy short, intermediate, and long -range aviation needs. It is prudent to establish basic facility requirements early in the planning process, and work performed in this task will be based upon the demand forecasts developed in Task 3. This will result in a basic facility development program for space required, functional considerations, movement of aircraft, airspace and operational considerations such as runways required, levels of aircraft activity, etc. Special emphasis will be placed upon the development of ccnrmter airline facility /terminal requirements, including building access and parking needs. The functional requirements will be identified for airport purposes only and will not include any assessment of facility requirements for other purposes, i.e., municipal functions or ccnmercial development unrelated to aviation. However, development reccmrendations for on- airport land will be developed in Task 5. Task 4b - Alternative Evaluation of Facility_ Dewelocment Alternatives Alternatives for primary facility development at Eagle County Airport will be analyzed and FAA concurrence obtained prior to final delinea- tion of future facility requirements. Alternative analysis will include consideration of airport functional requirements as well as off airport compatibility issues. Recommended alternatives will be developed into airport plans in Task 5. Task 5 - Airport Plans An overall plan for on- airport development will be prepared. The plan will identify those areas to be used for aviation related purposes, such as terminal facilities, aircraft maintenance, clear zones, airport control towers, etc., as well as recreational facilities, aviation related industrial sites, and other improvements ccmpatible with and appropriate to airport locations. Special attention will be given to beneficial land uses that will serve to enhance the airport image as a good neighbor, and to those activities capable of generating revenues that can be used for airport purposes. Detailed design of facilities within the development areas will not be included in the master plan; however, it is anticipated that at least the following items will be addressed: 0. Land required for existing and future aviation needs, specifically general aviation, possible ccnmuter airline and fixed base operations. 0 Recarmendations for land use under noise exposure areas. o Identification of existing and unconstrained future land use patterns in the area adjacent to and surrounding the airport. o Utility and infrastructure costs. o Development of alternative canpatibility schemes. o Terminal area will be prepared showing existing and recommended future building development. The land use plan for the airport and its environs must be compatible with the local comprehensive planning and will be coordinated with the objectives, policies, and programs for the area. A noise analysis utilizing the required contours, as specified in FAA Order 5050.4A will be provided and utilized in the preparation of the report. Noise contours will be developed using the FAA Integrated Noise Model (INM) Version 3.9, or later version if available. It will be necessary to review and evaluate existing plans, ordinances, and regulations to determine local planning goals, objectives, and policies, and to determine applicability of local ordinances to ensure land use compatibility with the airport. It must be emphasized that this task will not include an exhaustive study of the legal questions involved in zoning or implementation of other land use control strategies. It will, however, consider the needs for these controls, recommend the land uses and provide informa- tion relative to other attempts to establish land use controls in similar airport situations. Primary guidance for the land use plan will be modified criteria in Federal Aviation Administration Advisory Circular AC 150/5050 -6, Airport Land Use Compatibility Planning. A new Airport Layout Plan will be prepared in accordance with the Master Plan developed in previous tasks. It will include the short, intermediate, and long term configuration for runways, taxiways, aprons, areas for terminal development, control tower, C/FR, and other essential facilities. Clear zones, approach areas and other airspace features will be shown on an airspace height- hazard zoning map, prepared in accordance with FAR Part 77. Development of the plan will be closely coordinated with the FAA and local authorities. The geographic basis for the Airport Layout Plan and the airport noise contours described in Task 6, Environmental Review, will be a current or recent aerial photograph of the airport. In the event that no such 4 Photography exists, it will be necessary to have new photos flown. Costs for such original photography are expected to be $1,200 or less and are reflected in the miscellaneous expenses for this task in the Proposed project budget. Any additional aerial photo expense in excess of $1,200 would be paid for by the County. Task 6 — Emqxcraiental Review An environmental review of the long -term airport development program will be conducted to identify any potential impacts that may result, and will be analyzed under current FAA and other federal guidelines. This will ensure that should the environmental consequences of any reccmmended or planned improvement be questioned, information would be available for consideration. Unless required by the FAA, no field surveys for biological (flora and fauna) or archaeological assessment will be conducted; however, literature searches will be undertaken. Similarly, no noise, water, or air quality monitoring will be conducted. New noise contours based upon updated aircraft activity forecasts will be provided and will be portrayed on an aerial photographic base at a scale between 1" = 1000' and 1" = 6001, to be determined by the Sponsor. The environmental review will address at least the following environ- mental consequences: • Noise • Canpatible Land Use • Assessment of Social Impacts • Induced Socioeconanic Impacts • Air Quality • Water Quality • Department of Transportation, Section 4(F) • Biotic Communities (Including Both Flora and Fauna) • Endangered and Threatened Species of Flora and Fauna • Historical and Archaeological Impact • Natural Concerns • Light Fissions • Construction Impacts • Solid Waste Impact • Alternatives Considered Upon the completion of Task 6 the environmental review will be submitted for FAA consideration. The review will be accomplished in general accordance with FAA Orders 1050.1D and 5050.4A. The final a environmental review document will be in the format of an environmental assessment as defined in paragraph 47 of FAA Order 5050.4A Task 7 - omx?nt Schedule, Im ementation Strategy, and Financial Plan As part of this master plan study, schedules and cost estimates for implementing the planned improvements will be developed. This informa- tion can be a valuable tool in planning capital expenditures relative to any improvements project. The develogrent schedules will define the improvement sequencing and justification for each recc anendation. The financial plan will include estimates of element costs, along with, a schedule of improvements proposed, based upon the short, inter- mediate, and long term needs. There will be a brief analysis of possible funding sources including general obligation bonds, revenue bonds, federal funding sources, and the possible infusion of private funding for certain airport improvements. Existing airport management policies and practices (as they affect airport revenues) will be reviewed and considered in the context of anticipated future airport needs. Upon completion of the Study, 13 sets of the draft final report, including ALP prints, will be submitted for review and comment. The report will contain all pertinent conclusions, recom'-ndations, and substantiating data, and all necessary drawings and diagrams. Upon approval by the Sponsor, the Federal Aviation Administration, and other agencies, 18 copies of the final report, one set of reproducible originals, and one set of mylars of the ALP and Height Hazard Zoning Map, will be provided to the Sponsor. Original work, including Airport Layout Plan drawings will become the property of the Sponsor and will be delivered at the completion of the assignment. Production of other kinds of reports, promotional or informational material, etc., may be negotiated by the Sponsor. In order to assess the existing and future economic impact of Eagle County Airport on the Eagle County economy, a study will be conducted to analyze the airport and its contribution to the local economy. The study will consist primarily of the development of data from existing a� activity located at the airport, and will focus on identifying basic employment, payroll and total annual revenues frcan which to derive estimates of total existing econcmic impact. Local business and other information sources will be consulted to identify the degree to which the airport currently influences industrial and ccarmercial business decisions in the surrounding area. Particular emphasis will be placed upon identifying and analyzing the linkage between Eagle County Airport services and the recreational/ resort industry in the surrounding area. Major Ski /resort areas such as Vail, Beaver Creek, and Arrowhead will be contacted to define the total recreational travel market in terms of potential ccnTmter /charter aircraft activity, as well as existing tourism - related general aviation traffic. Surveys will be distributed to itinerant pilots to identify the level of current expenditures that are being made by general aviation into the local economy. The resultant base information will be analyzed in order to identify the direct and indirect economic contribution made by Eagle County Airport into the Eagle County economy. Concurrently, lists of probable aviation and aviation - related industrial clients which could be expected to be attracted to an ideally configured airport will be reviewed and a "magnitude" of probable economic impacts will be forecast in the areas of total employment, total revenue, retention of total revenue into the Eagle County economy, as well as the identification of probable secondary expenditure multipliers for estimating indirect impacts. Special attention will be focused on the direct and indirect econcmic benefits of possible ca ercial /ccarmuter air service at Eagle County Airport. The result of this effort will be a 20 -year economic projection sub- divided into five -year increments based upon the airport and land use improvement programs detailed in Task 5, Airport Plans. This analysis will identify the airport's role as: o An attractor to potential new business and industry. o The airport's current and anticipated contribution to the total area economy, including ski /recreational interests. o Its secondary role as it affects aspects as a stimulus to tourism, quality of life, etc.
