22 SECTION 3. SPLITS ZDC normally operates in a combined single sector mode. When traffic warrants a variety of splits may be utilized. Though splits are not limited to those outlined herein and other splits may be used as operations dictate. Two-way splits; Three-way splits; and Four-way splits. 22

23 1. TWO WAY SPLITS A) North/South Split ZDC is split in this configuration between areas 1, 2 and 6 in the North and 3, 4 and 5 in the South. Figure 9. North/South split type 1. 23

24 B) East/West Split ZDC is split in this configuration between areas 4, 5, 6 in the west and 1, 2, 3 in the east. Figure 10. East/South split. 24

25 C) Heavy NY Split The split is between areas 1 and 2; and areas 3, 4, 5 and 6. Figure 11. ZNY Heavy two-way split. 25

26 2. THREE-WAY SPLITS A). NY Heavy ZDC can be split for events that feature JFK and other adjacent N90 airports or also inclusive of Boston via the New York heavy three-way split. Figure 12. ZNY Three-way Split 26

27 27

28 B) Potomac Heavy ZDC can be split into a three-way split to accommodate heavy traffic into PCT. (Note IRONS can be split off on its own for a four-way split (not covered)). Area 16is by itself, area 5 by itself, and areas 1-4 are covered combined. Figure 12. Three-way PCT heavy split. IRONS is shown in yellow. 28

29 29

30 3. Four-way Splits A) PCT heavy with overflights ZDC can be split such that areas 1, 2 and 3 are combined with 4, 5 and 6 separate. This is utilized for PCT heavy events and little overflights over the east side. Figure 13. Four-way PCT heavy split. 30

31 B) Four-way ZNY heavy ZDC can be split in a way similar to the three-way ZNY heavy split with areas 1 and 2 separate; areas 3-4 combined and areas 5 & 6 separate. This would be for a combined PCT and N90/BOS event. Figure 14. Four-way ZNY heavy split. 31
