• To ensure that airports meet safety standards, 14 CFR Part 139 requires certain airports to obtain Airport Operating Certificates (AOCs).
• FAA roles in administering Part 139:
— Conduct annual inspection of certificated Airports to:
– Ensure compliance with the regulation
– Ensure FAA design standards are being followed
– Check for operational and construction safety
– Verify airport emergency response capability
— Disseminate national and regional standards and policies.
— Conduct continuous educational outreach to disseminate best practices in airport management.

Overview of Design/Construction Standards
• Airfield geometry:
— Critical dimensions
— Critical surfaces
— Critical separations
— Critical areas
• Engineering design standards
• Equipment specifications
• Approved systems
• Construction standards and processes

Non-Standard Conditions
• Because standards change over time, existing facilities that originally met standards may no longer do so.
• We do not consider a non-standard condition to be grandfathered.
• The singular event of a change in airport ownership and/or control would not require non-standard features at MDW to be upgraded to FAA standards.
• However, our goal is to correct non-standard conditions where practical.
• If Federal funds are used to rehabilitate a non-standard facility, FAA would require it to be brought up to standards.

Modifications to Standards
• In cases where non-standard features are studied and determined to provide an acceptable level of safety, the FAA may issue a “Modification to Standards.”
• A Modification to Standards may contain specific restrictions on use of a facility or timetable for correction of the non-standard condition.

Overview of Design/Construction Standards (cont’d)
• Potential widening and lengthening of Runway 13R/31L?
• Any proposed airfield modifications would require extensive environmental, airspace, safety risk analysis and capacity analysis before a determination could be made.

• Runways 4L/22R and 13L/31R are available for air carrier taxi only.
• Runway 13R/31L unavailable for air carrier taxiing.
