Subpart C – Obstruction Standards • 77.25 – Civil Airport Imaginary Surfaces • Primary Surface • Centered on runway; at same elevation as runway; width varies from 250-1000’ depending on type of runway and approach • Nothing may penetrate except location fixed by function • Transitional Surface • Begins at edge of primary surface; rises at 7:1 to 150’ • Horizontal Surface • 150’ above airport elevation for 5,000-10,000’ • Conical Surface • Begins at edge of horizontal surface: rises at 20:1 for 4,000’
Subpart C – Obstruction Standards • 77.25 – Civil Airport Imaginary Surfaces (cont’d) • Approach Surface • Trapezoidal surface centered on runway and extending outward and upward from primary surface at runway end • Inner edge same width as primary surface • Outer edge width varies from 1,250-16,000’ • Length varies from 5,000-10,000’

Subpart B – Notice of Construction • 77.9 – Construction or Alteration Requiring Notice
Subpart B – Notice of Construction • 77.9 – Construction or Alteration Requiring Notice • Form 7460 • Available from FAA • Internet • https://oeaaa.faa.gov/oeaaa/external/portal.jsp • Obstruction Evaluation / Airport Airspace Analysis (OE/AAA)
Still – What’s a Guy/Gal to Do? • Where zoning exists • Educate building permit officials of Part 77 requirements • Ensure that permits are not issued without 7460 submittal • Where zoning does not exist • Semper Vigilans! • ODOT Office of Aviation
ODOT Office of Aviation • Airport Zoning Boards ORC 4563.01 – 4563.21 • Publicly owned airports – legislative body of owner constitutes Airport Zoning Board • May adopt, administer, and enforce airport zoning regulations for such airport hazard area. • Based in whole upon the obstruction standards set forth in 14 CFR 77.21 to 77.29 • In in conflict with other zoning, the limitation or requirement best calculated to insure safety shall govern • Violation of 4563.01-4536.21 carries $100 fine - each day’s willful continuation of the violation is a separate offense
ODOT Office of Aviation • Ohio Airport Protection Act (Tall Structures Law) ORC 4561.30 thru 4561.39 • A permit from the Office of Aviation, must be obtained prior to the start of any construction on or near airports in Ohio open to the public. A duplicate of the federal filing fulfills the state permit application requirements. • ODOT may institute court action to prevent, restrain, correct, or abate any alleged violation or threatened violation of sections 4561.30 to 4561.39 of the Revised Code.
