Keithley, Current Planner SUBJECT: New information for USR-1145 During the Planning Commission hearing for USR-1145, the applicant, Russ Heppner, indicated that he had received approval from the FAA regarding the location of the proposed runway. Concern was voiced at the hearing that the 20 -foot setback of the airstrip from WCR 53 would present safety problems for those traveling on the road. After the hearing, I spoke with Marsha Hoefer, Program Specialist with the FAA, regarding potential safety issues with the close proximity of the airstrip to the road. Ms. Hoefer indicated that she was unaware that the airstrip was proposed only 20 feet from the road. She indicated that this was not specified on the Notice of Landing Area Proposal application submitted by the applicant and that, when scaling the grid drawing that the applicant had submitted, the airstrip appeared to be approximately 150 feet from WCR 53. The applicant also indicated on this sheet that there were no obstructions or other considerations with the airstrip (see attached Notice of Landing Area Proposal). After consulting with Steven Scully, Aviation Safety Inspection, Ms. Hoefer forwarded to the Department of Planning Services a recommendation from the FAA concerning dimensions of a safety area and an object free area (see attached letter). The Department of Planning Services will include these recommendations as conditions of approval for USR-1145.

Based upon this data if appears that the ultralight runway would be located approximately 20 feet from Weld County (WCR) Road 53_ This may cause a distraction to motorists traveling on this road and thereby create a safety hazard. I recommend the following: 1. A safety area of 60 feet either side of runway centerline, 2. An object free area of 125 feet either side of runway centerline. This object free area should not extend into the right of way for WCR 53, The above recommendations are consistent with FAA Advisory Circular 5300-13.

MAY 1 5 1997 RECt Airspace Case No. 97-DEN-094-NRA An airspace analysis of the proposed Hay Fever Farm Airport in Galeton, Colorado, has been completed. Based on this study, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has no objection. We recommend, however, that clear 20:1 approaches, and a safety area 120' wide and extending 240' off both runway ends be established and maintained. Also, be aware that the recommended runway length for the class of small general aviation aircraft is greater than the Hay Fever Farm Airport runway length, and density altitude should be evaluated in all operations. This determination does not mean FAA approval or disapproval of the physical development involved in the proposal. It is a determination with respect to the safe and efficient use of airspace by aircraft and with respect to the safety of persons and property on the ground. In making this determination, the FAA has considered matters such as the effect the proposal would have on the existing or planned traffic patterns of neighboring airports, the effects it would have on the existing airspace structure and projected program of the FAA, the effects it would have on the safety or persons and property on the ground, and the effects that existing or proposed man-made objects (on file with the FAA) and known natural objects within the affected area would have on the proposal. The FAA cannot prevent the construction of structures near an airport. The airport environs can only be protected through such means as local zoning ordinances or acquisition of property rights. No evaluation of the environmental aspects of the proposal was made in reaching this determination. Therefore, this determination is not to be construed as approval of the proposal from an environmental standpoint under Public Law 91-190 (National Environmental Policy Act of 1969). When the airport becomes operational, please complete and return the enclosed FAA Form 5010- 5, Airport Master Record. If the airport does not become operational within 12 months of the date of this letter, this airspace determination will expire unless you request a time extension. 971263 2 If in the future you wish to open the airport to public use, a new airspace determination will be required. In addition, if the facility changes names, changes ownership, if there is a change in the owner's address or other substantial changes, please notify the FAA, NFDC on Form 5010-5. The FAA might solicit information on your airport, and if the solicitation is not responded to, the airport could be considered an inactive facility. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions, please contact me at the number above.
