The study was based on the safe and efficient utilization of the navigable airspace by aircraft. Review included public circularization for aeronautical comments. No letters of objection were received in response to the circular. Based on that study, No. 84-AGL-697-NRA, we have no objections provided the runway thresholds are located or displaced, as necessary, and clearly marked so as to provide at least a 20:1 approach surface slope over all obstacles located within the runway approach surface areas. The Federal Aviation Administration cannot prevent the construction of structures near an airport. The airport environs can only be protected by such means as zoning ordinances or acquisition of property rights. This determination, issued in accordance with FAR Part 77, concerns the effect of this proposal on the safe and efficient use of navigable airspace by aircraft and does not relieve the sponsor of any compliance responsibilities relating to any law, ordinance, or regulation of any Federal, State, or local government body. Any change in airport operating category (VFR to IFR) will require a new airspace analysis and determination. 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 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 existing or planned traffic patterns of neighboring airports, the effects it would have on the existing airspace structure and projected programs of the FAA, the effects it would have on the safety of persons and property on the ground, and the effects that existing or proposed manmade objects (on file with the FAA) and known natural objects within the affected area would have on the airport proposal.
