PURPOSE, To reaffirm to the aviation community the FAA policy governing responsibility for funding relocation, replacement and modification to air traffic control and air navigation facilities that are made necessary by improvements to changes to the airport. The term "airport owner" used herein refers to the political subdivision, military service, or other authority responsible for airport operations and improvements. 2. CANCELLATION: AC No. 150/5300-7A effective 27 Sep 71 is cancelle,3, 3, CLASSES OF FAA FACILITIES, FAA facilities located on airports and sub- ject to the funding policy of this circular, are classified as follows: a, Class I. This class includes the facilities and components that are exclusively used in support of the airport or from which primary benefits are derived by the airport since the facility is 'located thereon. Examples are: Remote Transmitter/Receiver (Tower) Airport Traffic Control Tower Airport Surveillance Radar Airport Surface Detection Equipment Precision Approach Radar Instrument Landing System and Components Approach Lighting Systems and Components Visual Landing Aids Direction Finding Equipment VOR, TVOR and VORTAC used for Instrument Approach Weather Observing and Measuring Equipment (owner and operated by FAA) Central Standby Power Plant Initiated by: ABU-10 AC 150/5300-7B 8 Nov '2 b. Class II . This class includes the facilities and components that service a wide area and are located on the airport as a matter of convenience. Examples are: Long Range Radar Air Route Traffic Control Centers Peripherals (Remote Control .Air-Ground Communication Facility) VOR and VORTAC (enroute only) Flight Service Station Remote Communications Outlet Limited Remote Communications Outlet 4. RESPONSIBILITY FOR FUNDING. a. The Airport Owner. (1) The airport owner is expected to pay (and the agency shall not pay any part of the costs other than might be provided under Airport Development Aid Program funding) for the relocation, re- placement or modifications of FAA air traffic control and air navigation facilities or components thereof made necessary by airport improvements or changes , when: (a) Class I facilities must be relocated , replaced or modified because the airport improvement or change impairs the tech- nical and operational characteristics of the FAA facility. (b) Class I facilities must be relocated, replaced or modified to permit the extension of runways or construction of new runways and taxiways or other improvements to the existing airport facilities; for example: expansion of parking areas , terminal buildings, and aircraft service areas, (c) The FAA has a .lease, permit , license, or other document covering Class II facilities that gives FAA a legal basis for requesting that the airport owner assume the cost of relocation. The foregoing are the normal circumstances under which financing responsibility should rest with the airport owner, however cir- cumstances other than the above will be determined on a case- by-case basis. (2) Where the airport owner grants other parties the right to con- struct hangars, other buildings, and/or facilities that impair or interrupt the technical and operational characteristics of air traffic control or navigation facilities , the agency expects the airport owner to pay for the relocation, replacement or modification of these facilities or components thereof. Payment to FAA may be made either from recovery of costs from the other parties or from other sources available to the airport owner. Page 2 Par 3 8 Nov 72 AC 150/5300-7B (3) The need for uninterrupted service from some Class I facilities is recognized. This will require special methods for accom- plishing the work in order to avoid interruptions of service. In such cases, funding for provision of temporary facilities re- quired to maintain continuity of service is expected to be the airport owner's responsibility. However, it is FAA policy to avoid modernizing or upgrading a facility at the airport owner 's expense. b. The FAA. It is general FAA policy to fund the following: (1) Relocation into quarters provided by the airport owner when requested by FAA. (2) Relocation of Class II facilities, located on the airport but the presence is not authorized by a document described in 4.a. (1) (c) above, or the presence on the airport has been assured by un- written consent of the airport owner. (3) Relocation of facilities to meet FAA operational requirements or because of technical reasons that are inherent in the site and not caused by airport improvements or changes . (4) Modernization/expansion costs to meet FAA operational requirements . When a modernization/'expansion pro3ecL .i.s undertaken concurrently with a facility relocation that ^the airport owner finances, FAA pays only for those costs which would have been expended to meet FAA needs. For example, upgrading an ILS/ALS from CAT. I to CAT. II, adding direct altitude and identification readout to ASR, expanding a tower facility to accommodate ARTS III, etc. , concurrent with a relocation of the existing facility that is financed by the airport owner.
