11 Executive Summary State Context Romania is a EU Member State since the 1st January 2007 and a NATO Member State since the 29th March The Romanian airspace plays a significant role in the European transportation network of the South-East Europe (SEE), region which acts as a bridge between North, South, East and West Europe. While air traffic has been steadily increasing, forecasts predict further higher traffic demand driven by the economic growth in the region, by the on-going political changes (the EU political enlargement process, the emergence of new areas of cooperation and commitment ECAA, the European Common Aviation Area Multilateral Agreement, ratified by Romania through Law no.328/ published in the Official Journal of Romania Part 1 no.48/ ) as well as by the traditional European tourism and business travellers. The separation between the regulatory and the ATM service provider functions is effectively in place in Romania since many years now. The target operational concept established by the Government Decree no. 536/2000, aiming at further reducing the en-route physical locations to a single one in Bucharest, has been finalised in As a consequence starting 18 th October 2012 ROMATSA operates the en-route control from the facilities of Bucuresti ACC which is located in Bucharest. Also, a new APP unit has been implemented in Arad at the same date. ESSIP Objective Implementation As presented in the summarizing table below, part of the objectives are completed, some are partially completed and some are late. It should be noted that the "late" status of one objective (AOP04.1) is due to the fact that Romania joined later the applicability area of this airport related objective. No special difficulties were encountered in the implementation of the objectives during the reporting period. LSSIP Year 2013 Romania 1 Released Issue

15 Introduction The Local Single Sky ImPlementation documents (LSSIPs), as an integral part of the ESSIP/LSSIP mechanism, constitute a five-year plan containing ECAC States actions to achieve the Implementation Objectives as set out by the ESSIP and to improve the performance of their national ATM System. The LSSIP document Year 2013 describes the situation in the State at the end of December The LSSIP documents are structured into 6 chapters to better differentiate the Stakeholder(s) accountable for the information contained in each of them: Chapters 1 to 5 present the key players in the State, and sets the institutional and geographical scenes to help the reader understand the specifics of the State and interpret the rest of the document correctly. It also presents a short description of the main national and regional projects in which the national Stakeholders are involved. Chapter 6 contains high-level information on progress and plans of each ESSIP Objective. The information for each ESSIP Objective is presented in boxes giving a summary of the progress and plans of implementation for each Stakeholder. The conventions used are presented at the beginning of the section. Note: Chapter 6 is completed with a separate document called LSSIP Level 2. This document consists of a set of tables organised in line with the list of ESSIP Objectives. Each table contains all the actions planned by the four national stakeholders to achieve their respective Stakeholder Lines of Action (SLoAs) as established in the ESSIP.

19 1.1.3 Airspace Classification and Organisation ICAO airspace classification is applied within Bucuresti FIR. In compliance with the EUROCONTROL Airspace Strategy for ECAC States (OI 1A), the current status of the Airspace classification is: 1. Between FL 105 and FL ICAO Class C airspace, according to EUROCONTROL Airspace Strategy for ECAC States (OI 1A) requirements. This classification is applicable since Nov through joint MoT- MoD order no 693 M173/ 2003, published in the Official Journal of Romania no. 165/ Below FL 105 The ICAO airspace classification of Class C airspace below FL 105 is implemented in Romania by joint MoT MoD Order 53/ and M20/ , published in the Official Journal of Romania no. 107/ Free Route Airspace In the context of the constant effort of the Romanian Air Traffic Services Administration (ROMATSA) for achieving the aim to provide safest, most efficient and environmental friendly air navigation services in South-Eastern Europe, as from the 14th of November 2013 within Bucuresti FIR has been implemented the Night Free Route Airspace (FRA) Concept. A consultation coordinated by ICAO EUR/NAT Office has been also successfully made at States level, in accordance with the provisions of Annex 11, paragraph and the established procedure for the amendment of the European Air Navigation Plan. General principles of Free Route Airspace operations: a. Horizontal and vertical limits of the implementation area: - The Free Route Airspace Concept encompasses the horizontal boundaries of Bucuresti FIR in their full extent, as published in AIP Romania, ENR 2.1. The vertical limits of FRA Concept application are from FL105 to FL660. b. Class of airspace - FRA has been implemented in Class C airspace, with the exception of TMA areas and CTR. c. FRA Operating hours - Free Route Airspace is available from 2300 to 0400 UTC during the winter time period and from 2200 to 0300 UTC during the summer time period. d. Planning aspects - During the Free Route Airspace operating hours eligible flights may plan inserting DCT between IFR significant points and en-route radio navigation aids published in AIP Romania, subsections ENR 4.4 and ENR 4.1, without reference to the published ATS route network. Also, the ATS fixed route network remains available during FRA operating hours. - Insertion in the flight plan of DCT across the Bucuresti FIR boundaries (cross-border) are not allowed. - The access from/ to TMA / CTR areas are effected using the fixed ATS route network, using dedicated connection points published in AIP România. e. Reference materials within the national Aeronautical Information Publication: - IFR significant points and en-route radio navigation aids are published in AIP Romania, subsections ENR 4.4 and ENR 4.1.

23 State Safety Programme was released. Specific procedures will be issued and afterwards the state safety levels will be set up taking into consideration the safety levels already established by the ANSP, taking into account the ECAC level overall safety minima of 1,55 x 10-8 accidents per flight/hour, set in RACR- ESARR 4. Safety performance monitoring was performed during 2013 according to the applicable SES requirements (Regulation (UE) no. 1034/2011), and national regulation RACR-REAC transposing (EC) Directive 2003/42. At national level, the Civil Aviation Safety Investigation and Analysis Centre shall publish each year a report containing the civil aviation occurrence information collected through the mandatory/voluntary reporting system with a view to informing the general public about the level of safety in civil aviation. Twice per year, ROMATSA Safety Committee has to assess safety performance of ROMATSA based on reports issued by Safety and Quality Directorate. The safety data have been collated and reported to EUROCONTROL in terms of yearly high level safety indicators, as provided in the Annual Safety Template (AST). The main strategic action is to improve regular safety performance monitoring and analysis of incidents trends by: Implementation of an Automated Safety Reporting System. The system will facilitate the process of reporting, investigation and dissemination by means of an intranet network using ECCAIRS software. The project (SMART Project) started in 2005 and it is still under development. ECCAIRS is also being used at the moment accordingly. Implementation of an Automated Safety Monitoring Tool as a complementary system to the actual human reporting system MoT DCA/RCAA Two departments within MoT are dedicated to civil aviation, including ATM: The Directorate of Civil Aviation (DCA), included in the Directorate General of Air-Naval Transport and headed by the Director of Civil Aviation, who manages the regulatory responsibilities, including for ATM. These include drawing up high level policies, regulations and supervision for the security issues and regulatory supervision of all delegated tasks. Economic regulation is performed with participation of MoT s Economic & Administrative Directorate. It should be noted that the ASU within MoT/DCA is acting also as the NSA in the field of civil aviation security based on the provisions set in Regulation (EC) no. 300/2008, Regulation (EU) no. 185/2010, Decision (UE) No. 774/2010, Regulation (UE) no. 1035/2011, Chapter 4, Security, the Aviation Act, Government Ordinance no. 17/2011 concerning quality control in the field of civil aviation security, approved by the Law no. 149 from 2012 and in the Romanian Government Decision No. 1869/2005 for the approval of National Quality Control Programme on civil aviation security, as amended by the Government Decision no from Since 1 January 2014, the NSA responsible for security matters was transferred from MoT to RCAA, through Government Decree 645/2013. By Law No.55/2010 for approval and modification of the Government Ordinance No.26/2009, the Department of Air Transport Investigation, part of the General Directorate of Control and Accident Transport Investigation (GDoCATI) from MoT has been transformed into the Civil Aviation Safety Investigation and Analysis Centre (CIAS), public institution with legal personality, subordinated to MoT. CIAS is the independent body responsible for technical investigations of the civil aviation accidents and serious incidents, having its own budget. CIAS has become functional with the promulgation of the Government Decision No.1013/2010 which approved the Regulation of organization and functioning of the CIAS. The main activity of CIAS is based on Regulation (EU) 996/2010 (for the Civil Aviation Safety Investigation) and Directive 2003/42/EC (for civil aviation occurrence reporting).

24 According to Art. 5 of the Aviation Act, Government Decree 405/1993 (establishing the Romanian Civil Aeronautical Authority (RCAA) as an autonomous, independent from ATM service provision and selffinanced organisation) and to some other specific regulations promulgated by MoT after 1998, most of MoT s safety regulatory responsibilities were delegated in the remit of the RCAA, such as drafting national regulations (up to the approval of the national specific regulations, which is undertaken by MoT), issuing specific procedures and instructions to apply the national regulations and the day-to-day safety supervisory tasks pertaining to ANS provided to GAT. MoT retains and applies regulatory supervision of all delegated regulatory tasks (the RCAA operates under the authority of MoT). It should also be noted that economic regulation of ANS is retained by MoT. However, the amendment by Law 399/2005 of the Civil Air Code has introduced the supervisory function in the national regulatory framework, as required by (EC) Regulation No. 549/2004 laying down the framework for the creation of the Single European Sky. This enables that the RCAA is designated by MoT as the NSA for Romania for all specific tasks laid down by SES legislation except the security matters. Since 1 January 2014, the NSA responsible for security matters was transferred from MoT to RCAA, through Government Decree 645/2013. The RCAA was established by Government Decree 405/1993 as national safety oversight and licensing authority. It is an autonomous self-financed, 100% state owned organisation. Following the promulgation in 1997 of the current basic legislation, several MoT Orders confirmed the role of the RCAA as the delegated national safety oversight authority and licensing authority, thus correlating the provisions of the new basic legislation with the safety regulatory responsibilities bestowed on the RCAA in The Law 399/ 2005 amending the Air Code of Romania entered into force since 1st of July 2006 and starting with July 2006 RCAA has been designated as NSA for Romania by MoT Order no. 1185/2006, published in the Official Journal of Romania Part I no. 602/ According to this MoT Order, RCAA is designated to perform the roles and responsibilities of a NSA in compliance with SES legislation, except those related to aviation security. Starting August 2005 several organisational changes have been implemented within the RCAA, including the full separation (at functional level) of RCAA s AIS Department (providing aeronautical information services falling under the SARPs of ICAO Annex 15 - the whole integrated package of aeronautical information except for the PIBs) from the RCAA departments which fulfill the role and tasks of the NSA. Since 1 January 2014, the AIS department from RCAA, responsible for providing the IAIP except PIB was transferred from RCAA to ROMATSA, through Government Decree 645/2013.In Romania, as EU Member State, all EC Regulations are entirely binding and directly applicable, including SES legislation which is in force for the time being. Subsequently, all the ESARRs provisions transposed at Community level are now directly applicable The Romanian Civil Air Code (established by law) provides the general requirements concerning the safety regulatory approval and oversight of all ATM systems and organisations, and for personnel licensing. The RCAA covers a wide area of activities, including certification, such as: Certification of the ANS service providers in compliance with the SES certification processes required by the EC regulations. During 2006, RCAA developed an audit programme consistent with the ANSP certification process within SES as required by the SES (EC) Regulations (No /2004) and the Commission s Regulation (EC) No. 2096/2005 laying down the Common Requirements for the provision of air navigation services. At the end of 2006 RCAA issued for ROMATSA the Certificate no 01/ 2006 for air navigation services provision, with revision number 1 applicable from 1 January Further, revision number 2 applicable from 1 January 2010, and revision number 3 applicable from 5 th of November 2011 were issued. A second certificate no. CN 07/2012 was issued which replaces the previous one and is valid until For the AIS Dept. within RCAA the following certificates were issued: in June 2007 the Certificate no. 02/ 2007, in June 2008 the Certificate no. 03/2008, in June 2009 the Certificate no. 04/2009, in June 2011 the Certificate no. 05/2011, in June 2012 the Certificate no. 06/2012, and in July 2013 the Certificate no. 08/2013. Since January 2007, RCAA has started to annually monitor the ongoing compliance of the air navigation service providers with all the applicable requirements and conditions attached to their certificates. for procedures (acceptance by RCAA as NSA of all safety arguments associated with procedures related to either new functional systems or changes to existing functional systems is necessary before actual implementation), for the ANS personnel (licensing of air traffic controllers and of some safety significant categories of ATM technical and engineering personnel, licensing of MET and AIS personnel), and for ATM systems/constituents (acceptance by RCAA as NSA of all safety arguments related to either a new functional system or changes to existing functional systems is necessary before actual implementation).

25 Information on the RCAA as NSA can be accessed on site Information on the AIS services provided by BIA can be accessed on site The MoT website: Annual Report published: N ROMATSA Civil Air Navigation Services are provided by the Romanian Air Traffic Services Administration to all GAT-IFR. ROMATSA is an autonomous, self-financing public enterprise under the authority of the Ministry of Transport. The tasks of ROMATSA are based on Government Decrees No.74 - dated 1991, No dated 1993, No dated 2005, No dated 2006, No dated 2007 and No dated Flight Information Services within Bucuresti FIR are provided by Bucuresti FIC and by ACC, APP and TWR units in their area of responsibility. For the provision of air traffic services ROMATSA operates the en-route control from the facilities of Bucuresti ACC which is located in Bucharest and all the civil Aerodrome Control Towers and the Approach Control units within Bucuresti FIR. ROMATSA also provides Aeronautical Information Services (partly as of ) and Meteorological Services for civil aviation. ROMATSA also provides the technical services for the Air Traffic Services equipment at the airports and at the en-route facilities. As of the AIS Unit within RCAA provides aeronautical information services falling under the SARPs of ICAO Annex 15 (the whole integrated package of aeronautical information except for the PIBs that are provided by ROMATSA). According to the Government Decision no. 645/2013 amending Government Decision no. 405/1993 for the creation of the Romanian CAA, the responsibilities for AIS are to be transferred in the administration of ROMATSA. This legislative act stipulates that within a 6 month deadline from the date of the entry into force of the act (latest 21 February 2014) ROMATSA has to take over from the Romanian CAA the responsibilities for the provision of aeronautical information services. According to the transfer plan approved by the RCAA and ROMATSA has been set up as the date of transfer. Alerting service is provided by all ROMATSA ATS units. SAR coordination is provided by the Aeronautical Search and Rescue Coordination Centre located at ROMATSA headquarters Bucharest. An Administrative Council performs the high level management roles and tasks of ROMATSA and also approves strategic decisions. Current management decisions within the frame of ROMATSA responsibilities remain at the Board of Directors of ROMATSA. The Air Force Staff, through the Air Operations Centre and the military aerodrome units, provides air traffic services for military OAT within national airspace and within aerodrome control zones and approach control zones of the civil/military airports and military airports. The Air Force Staff does not provide ATS to GAT. The Air Force Staff provides aeronautical information services and meteorological services for military aviation. The Air Force Staff also provides the technical support for the military air traffic services. LSSIP Year 2013 Romania 13 Released Issue

39 Chapter 5 - Regional Co-ordination 5.1 FAB Co-ordination The DANUBE FAB is currently under phase 4 FAB Implementation phase. The State Agreement on the establishment of the DANUBE FAB between the Republic of Bulgaria and Romania was signed in December 2011 and was ratified by both governments in The Agreement entered into force on 16 November 2012 following the diplomatic exchange of letters between both States, thus ensuring the legal basis for the FAB ahead of the SES deadline. DANUBE FAB project phases The State Agreement establishes new governing structures of the FAB: Governing Council, ANSP Board and NSA Board. In order to fulfil their tasks, the governing bodies established specialized Standing Committees (Strategy and Planning Standing Committee; Operational Standing Committee; Safety, Quality, Security and Environment Standing Committee). The new structure created after the December 4, 2012 will ensure successful implementation of the DANUBE FAB. DANUBE FAB Governance Following the entry into force of the DANUBE FAB State Agreement, the governance takes place under the oversight of the DANUBE FAB Governing Council, supported by cooperation arrangements at the ANSP and NSA level, signed as elements of the regulatory framework for establishment of the DANUBE FAB. These agreements ensure continued cooperation in the provision of air navigation services within the DANUBE FAB airspace. The DANUBE FAB was approved for financial aid by the European Commission (EC) with Decision C(2013) 7573 under the 2012 Trans-European Transport Networks (TEN-T) Multi-Annual Call Programme, for activities to support the implementation of the IDP within DANUBE FAB. The aim of the Action is the deployment of the initial set of SESAR solutions at DANUBE FAB level, concretely the air ground data link and airspace management (free routes). As such, it addresses the priorities of the Interim Deployment Programme (IDP), which describes the implementation activities of essential ATM operational changes as identified by the European Air Traffic Management Master Plan and which details short-term implementation activities. The total amount of the grant is over 1,394,000, representing 50% of the total eligible requested costs. A step forward towards the implementation of the DANUBE FAB was taken at the beginning of 2013 by developing the DANUBE FAB Strategic Program and beyond document. This Strategic Program has been developed in accordance with Article 10.5.a) of the DANUBE FAB State Agreement by a dedicated Task Force with due consideration of individual Stakeholder Plans (for example the ANSP LSSIP Year 2013 Romania 27 Released Issue

40 Business Plans required by Regulation (EU) 1035/2011) and with input from the NSAs and Military. The purpose of this Strategic Program is to set out the intentions and goals i.e. strategic objectives of DANUBE FAB and to set out a high level overview of how and when these objectives are to be achieved. The Program includes short-medium term objectives and it presents a view of how DANUBE FAB should develop in the medium and long-term. In fulfilling its purpose, the Strategic Program ensures a coherent and consistent approach that does not duplicate the existing processes of planning of the individual stakeholders. It is also consistent with the relevant European Union requirements applicable to service provision, interoperability and airspace in a FAB framework as reflected through the ESSIP/LSSIP process. There are nine strategic objectives (SOs). Five of them cover the Performance Scheme Areas as defined by the amended Regulation (EU) 691/2010, namely: Safety, Environment, Capacity, Cost Efficiency and Flight Efficiency (see expected contribution to the key performance in the table below and section 5.2 FAB Projects). In addition, other four SOs have been identified as beneficial areas of strategic cooperation. These are in the following three areas: FAB Organisational Excellence, Security and Interoperability. STRATEGIC AREAS STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES [SO1] Continuous improvement of the DANUBE FAB organisational FAB excellence, by focusing on a holistic business-oriented approach in ORGANISATIONAL meeting the needs and expectations of customers and other EXCELLENCE stakeholders in a balanced and objective way. [SO2] Improvement of current levels of safety so that the number of SAFETY accidents, serious or risk bearing incidents induced by air navigation services does not increase and, whenever possible, decreases. [SO3] Minimize the environmental impact in all domains of activities, ENVIRONMENT while keeping safety as a priority over commercial, operational, environmental and social pressures. [SO4] Provide optimum capacity in order to meet airspace user demand, CAPACITY allowing consistent approach to meeting expected performance targets and delivering continuous safety improvement. COST EFFICIENCY [SO5] Apply charging policy considering European Union wide targets. FLIGHT EFFICIENCY [SO6] Improving the efficiency of flight operations. It will contribute as well to achieving the Environment strategic objective. [SO7] Protection of vital facilities, operational data and personnel in order SECURITY to prevent acts of unlawful interference against air navigation systems. [SO8] Draw benefits from interoperability of systems and share technical INTEROPERABILITY services throughout the DANUBE FAB [SO9] Deployment of SESAR through ATM Master Plan in coordination with the Deployment Manager. High level Strategic Objectives of DANUBE FAB Following the approval of the DANUBE FAB Strategic Program, a dedicated Task Force developed the DANUBE FAB Annual Plan for 2013, in order to detail the features of the Strategic Program and describe any modifications to it. The Annual Plan is entirely based on the high level provisions set in the DANUBE FAB Strategic Program and beyond. The following deliverables supporting the establishment of the DANUBE FAB were also released in 2013: DANUBE FAB Data Link Services Concept of Operations, DANUBE FAB Annual Plan 2013, DANUBE FAB Interim Report on the Implementation of the DF SP/AP 2013, Oct 2013 DANUBE FAB Project Management Plan Implementation Phase, Sep 2013 Procedure for Cross Border Sector Establishment, Oct 2013 LSSIP Year 2013 Romania 28 Released Issue

The project is aimed at the SES High Level Goals and supports achievement of the EU-wide targets established under the SES Performance Scheme, in particular: EU-wide capacity target: The introduction of AGDL in Europe is estimated to have a 10% net benefit on en-route capacity and is therefore a key enabler of the EU-wide capacity target of enroute ATFM delay of lower than 0.5 minutes per flight. Given the low level of delay in the DANUBE FAB, this investment is not necessary for the achievement of the local target, but the nature of AGDL is that the benefit will be accrued in the core-european airspace where delays are in excess of the national targets.

Presently the Moldavian transport authorities are undergoing a process for receiving an Observer Status in the DANUBE FAB, considering the new legal framework that entered into force on 16 November 2012 Radar Data Sharing Radar data sharing is currently carried out based on bilateral agreements, with Bulgaria, Hungary, Serbia and Moldova. ROMATSA receives radar data from Vitosha and Varbica MSSRs (Bulgaria), Puspokladany PSR/MSSR (Hungary), Kosevac MSSR (Serbia) and Chisinau MSSR (Moldova) and sends data to Bulgaria from Buciumeni MSSR and Topolog MSSR, to Hungary from Manastur MSSR and to Moldova from Bacau MSSR. Regional Route Network Developments Further improvements of ATS network in South-East Europe have been addressed during the RNDSG, SEERM and RDGE meetings. The main objectives are to review the route network improvement proposals raised by States, IATA, IACA, ERA and EUROCONTROL. Within the context of these proposals, Romania is currently improving cooperation on regional route network development with all its neighbours, as follows: Bulgaria (BULATSA), Hungary (HungaroControl), Serbia (SMATSA), Ukraine (UkSATSE) and Moldova (MOLDATSA). The interface with Bulgaria is subject to regional and bi-lateral meetings. The implementation of interface improvements with Bulgaria has been done before the summer season 2009 and is currently taken into consideration under the Danube FAB. Regional Communication Network Currently, the regional network covers Sofia, Varna, Budapest, Bratislava, Bucharest, and Chisinau ACC centres. The joining of Simferopol ACC/Istanbul ACC/Ankara ACC has been completed in 2007/2008. There is a tendency to improve the network with Beograd, Lviv, Odessa and Simferopol ACCs.
