AIRPORT MASTER PLAN <br />Improve apron area lighting. <br /> Identify location for a future CBP FIS facility. <br /> Improved fiber access along Airport Drive. <br /> Improve utility access along TX-21. <br /> Add a secondary access route into airport. <br /> Straighten and improve aesthetics of Airport Drive. <br />F ACILITY R EQUIREMENTS S UMMARY <br />Based on the analysis completed in this chapter, the primary drivers for the <br />Alternatives Chapter are the items defined below: <br /> <br /> Runway 17/35 needs to be developed as the primary runway. <br /> Runway 17/35 should be protected for an extension up to 7,000 feet. <br /> Runway strengthening will likely be necessary for Runway 13/31 and Runway <br />17/35. <br /> Runway 17/35 and Runway 13/31 should be considered for updates to C-III <br />standards as they are the most suitable for improvement. <br /> Runway 17 should be evaluated for lower approach minimums (¾ mile) <br /> Evaluate need to repair or replace Runway 8/26 REILs. <br /> Consider the closure of Runway 8/26 as it provides no substantial wind <br />coverage or capacity benefits and would be difficult to upgrade to C-III <br />runway design standards. <br /> Add lighted windsocks to runway ends. <br /> Add PAPI system to Runway 35. <br /> Acquire property or establish avigation easements necessary to protect the <br />RPZs for Runway 8, 31, and 35 <br /> Add additional mandatory hold position signage on Runway 17/35 at the <br />intersection of Runway 8/26 to fully conform to FAA safety standards. <br /> Update runway designations for Runway 17/35 and Runway 8/26 during the <br />latter portion of the forecast period due to magnetic variation changes. <br /> <br />Facility Requirements Chapter Page 69 of 70 <br />October 2020 <br /> <br />
