L <br /> within the re .tion area and equipped with ort, :ange <br /> ir,struments the direction and distance to or from the VOR. The <br /> information received will also indicate if the aircraft is on <br /> , <br /> the desired course or right or left of course. <br /> The relocation of the VOR faciiity a: Paine Field is required <br /> � due to the deterioration of performar:�e caused by building <br /> construction around the airport. As a result, instrument <br /> approaches to runway 16R and overall VOR coverage have been . <br /> ' severely restricted. Future construction planned on and araund <br /> � the airport will impact VOR performance to an even greater <br /> - degree. The new location will provide a permanent solution to <br /> this prablem. <br /> F <br /> .i Iy, 0j„Et TRAFFIC PATTERNS <br /> There will be no change in aircraft operations or airspace use <br /> � at the airport due to the relocation of the VOR. <br /> �, ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS <br /> ja, Noise: The pro,�ect will not increase the number af <br /> � operations on the runway or surrounding airspace and thus will <br /> ; not increase the noise in the surrounding environment. <br /> < <br /> `i b. Air Oualitv: During normal operations of this facility, no <br /> ; significant air pollutants will be produced. <br /> ,� � c. Water Oualitv: Ground water and surface runoffs in the <br /> area will not be affected by this facility. Water and <br /> : sanitation facilities will not be required. The existing VOR <br /> has an underground fuel s'corage tank which will be removed from <br /> " the site in accordance with state and federal environmental <br /> � regulations. The new facility will not require a fuel storage <br /> tank. <br /> d. Solid Waste: This facility wiil require routine <br /> maintenance visits approximately once a month. There will be <br /> -� no sulid waste generated after construction. <br /> � e. Fnerav Suoolv: Power will be extended from an existing <br /> source near the facility. No new power generating equipment <br /> will be required to provide commercial power to the site. The <br /> ' conslumpti n�aththePexistingSVORtornabout 4500�KWHrabThetnewhe <br /> .v facility will not have backup power (engine-generator) . <br /> ,a <br /> � p, r���r,-��rtion Imoacts: The construction period is expected <br /> to last approximately 90 days. Air and noise pollution during <br /> construction will be m�nimal as compared with existing airpart <br /> � activities. <br /> . g. <br /> Fcoloaical Svstems: Due to the nature of the airport <br /> environment where the new facility is to be located there are <br /> " na natural-ecological systems to be disturbed or impacted. <br />
