2 1. WORK INFORMATION 1.1 CONDITIONS OF THIS MOWP No changes to the conditions outlined in this Method of Working Plan can be made without the approval of the MOWP Safety Coordinator. 1.2 PROJECT COMMENCEMENT The Runway Maintenance project is expected to commence April 2018 and take approximately a twelve month period to complete unless otherwise amended or extended. The actual date and time of commencement of the work will be notified by a Local works plan and/or an Operations Advice and associated NOTAM which will be issued before the commencement of each Stage of works. A Local Works Plan will be issued at least 48 hours prior to the commencement of each MOWP Stage. 1.3 LOCATION OF THE WORK SITE The works will be carried out in the following areas: Stage 1 Runway 09/27 Full Length Stage 2 Runway 09/27 Full Length including the intersection of Taxiway Alpha & Runway 09/27 Stage 3 Runway 16/34 Full Length including Taxiway Alpha north of Runway 09/27and Taxiway Kilo. Stage 4 Runway 16/34 Full Length (Bravo & Kilo Run up bay available). 1.4 STAGING AND DISCRIPTION OF THE WORKS The works will be completed in four separate stages. Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3 Stage 4 Involves pavement maintenance, removal of rubber deposits, electrical works and line marking on the Full length of Runway 09/27. Involves pavement maintenance, removal of rubber deposits, electrical works and line marking on the full length of Runway 09/27 including the intersection of Taxiway Alpha & Runway 09/27.

ATC will then declare Low Visibility Procedures in Force on the Computer Automated Terminal Information Service (CATIS). Works may be postponed, limited or cancelled subject to the prevailing weather conditions. As per the CASA endorsed Letter of Agreement between Melbourne Airport and Airservices Australia (ATS LOA 532), once a NOTAM has been issued, and there is unfavourable weather conditions and the NOTAM is required to be cancelled or amended a new NOTAM may be issued at short notice to activate another stage of the MOWP to minimise impact to aircraft operations. Melbourne Airport will give at least two hours notice to Air Traffic Control and the major airline operators affected by the late change in NOTAM action. Once a Stage of works has been cancelled due to weather and a new Stage enacted there will be no further changes implemented within a 12 hour period. 1.6 Hours of Works During Stage 1, 2, 3 & 4 works will be conducted predominately between the hours of 00:00 local time and 06:00 local time however Runway 09/27 may be closed during day light hours from 0930 local time to 1600 local time or other hours as agreed by Melbourne Airport. Confirmation of times will be advised by a Local Works Plan and NOTAM. Please note: Stage 2, if the wind dictates the essential use of Runway 16 the works hours may be amended or works cancelled. This will occur after consultation with ATC, Senior Airside Safety Officer (Car 2) and the Method of Works Safety Coordinator. Stage 3 & 4, if the wind dictates the essential use of Runway 16/34 the works hours may be amended or works cancelled. This will occur after consultation with ATC, Senior Airside Safety Officer (Car 2) and the Method of Works Safety Coordinator. 2.
