~I The area included in the clear and safety zones for the southeast primary runway ' approach is again zoned entirely for industrial use with much of it adjacent to the railroad and/or highway facilities. At least one new industrial facility in ' the Gateway North Industrial Park would fall within zone A and would have to be ' removed. Anew sawdust and shaving company, in the same industrial park, and several retail-commercial enterprises located between the railroad and the high- ' way would lie within zone B for that southeast approach area and might not con- form to the zone restrictions. The restrictions associated with safety zones A ' and B would prevent or seriously diminish the development of prime business- ' commercial and industrial zoned lands along the Burlington Northern railroad and U. S. Highway #10, #52, and #169. No developments currently exist within the clear zone and zone A for the north approach area of Runway 13-31, but the lands are zoned and desirable for indus- trial and residential development. Most of zone B is also undeveloped except for the northern corner where a small residential development, which may meet ' the zone restrictions, is platted. Alternate #3 Primary runway 11-29, as used in Alternate #1, is again utilized in alternate layout #3 but the crosswind runway has been rotated more northerly-southerly ' to a 7-25 orientation, as shown in Figure 5, to achieve greater wind coverage. As with Alternate #1, Primary Runway 11-29 attains only a 78 percent wind ' coverage while the combined runway wind coverage slightly exceeds 86 percent. The location and impacts associated with Primary Runway 11-29 are the same as ' detailed with Alternate #1. Crosswind runway 7-25 maintains minimum horizontal ' 15
