Box 850 Eagle CO 81631 Dear Mr. Storer: InterFlight Services, Inc. (ISI), is pleased to submit the following updated proposal to Eagle County Regional Airport for providing review, analysis and reports for the following three potential Eagle County projects: • Use of runway 7 for departures, with and without the 1,000 ft runway extension • Review of ATC procedures • Radar system for EGE ISI will prepare an analysis and present written findings for each of these projects to Eagle County Regional Airport. Mr. Fred Isaac and Mr. Temple Johnson, Senior ISI Associate Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), will accomplish this work effort. ASSUMPTIONS AND UNDERSTANDINGS: 1. Eagle County Regional Airport is commissioning these studies to assist in the determination of feasibility of incorporation and or continuation. 2. Eagle County Regional Airport understands that the results of these studies may yield a recommendation of no action or may require further study if this effort does not present a 'clear path' for decision makers. STATEMENT OF WORK: The project is separated into three phases defined by the tasks listed below, which identify the effort required to accomplish the desired study /project. Phase 1 Use Of Runway 7 For Departures, With And Without The 1,000 Ft Runway Extension • Do a thorough analysis of runway usage in both VFR and IFR conditions. Determine what, if any, benefits can be realized by increased use of runway 7. Determine if such increased usage would affect inbound aircraft, particularly IFR inbound aircraft, to the point where the overall airport capacity would be negatively impacted. 515 116 AVENUE NE, SUITE 101, BELLEVUE, WA 98004 - PHONE: 425.462.5700 - FAX: 425.451.4027 e-mail: interflight®interflight.com • Estimate of departure delays resulting from use of runway 7. • Typical operating scenario with arrivals on 25 and departures on 7. • Pros and cons of a 7 departure /25 arrival scenario. • Assess if the additional use of runway 7 would be a workload issue for the local control tower, ARTCC, or the Aspen ATCT. • Determine if increased use of runway 7 could be accomplished within the existing Letter of Agreement with the Denver ARTCC. • Prepare a report summarizing findings, conclusions, and recommendations. • One (1) day on site Eagle; one (1) day on site Denver ARTCC required. Phase 2 Feasibility of 1,000' Added Runway Length Determine the cost effectiveness of adding 1,000' to both ends of the runway, using information developed in this study, recent Master Plan data and all other information. Phase 3 Review of ATC Procedures • Conduct a current evaluation of services provided by the contract tower, particularly as it relates to working with the Denver ARTCC. • Make an onsite visit to the Denver ARTCC for the purpose of evaluating the use of the timed approach and assess the working relationship between the Center and the contract tower, particularly as it relates to coordination and common understanding. • Review and assess the reservation system as to effectiveness and consistency of application. • Evaluate the airspace issues between Aspen and Eagle to determine equity of IFR inbound usage and efficiency. • Prepare a report summarizing findings, conclusions, and recommendations. • Two (2) days on site Eagle; one (1) day on site Denver ARTCC required. Phase 4 Radar System for EGE Review case history for recent attempt by Congressional delegation to obtain radar system for EGE Review the FAA study undertaken after Congressional delegation promoted the radar system Prepare or update the 'case' and justification for a radar system at Eagle, including factors such as: ➢ High field elevation ➢ Existing radar coverage floor of 14,500 ft. MSL for approaches to runway 25 and 10,000 ft. MSL on departures from runway 25 ➢ Rapidly changing weather conditions ➢ High terrain surrounding the airport ➢ Numbers of sophisticated corporate -type and airline operations during marginal, night, and /or bad weather conditions ➢ Concentration of high performance traffic during the winter months ➢ Community economic needs — destination ski resort, isolation ➢ Emergency airlift service needs ➢ Military operations ➢ Current and forecast enplanements Eagle County Regional Airport Studies— Rev A 2 Proprietary 8 Conritlential June 4, 2002 InterFlight Services, Inc. __ ➢ Other airports with radar services that have fewer enplanements and lower numbers of high value, sophisticated aircraft operations SCHEDULE: The Project will commence upon receipt of a Purchase Order or upon issue of a letter of authorization followed by a confirming Purchase Order.
