EXHIBIT A LOMPOC AIRPORT MASTER PLAN SCOPE OF WORK AIP Project # 3-06-0125-11 INTRODUCTION The following proposed work program for the Lompoc Airport Master Plan describes in detail the work which is to be accomplished. An outline of the proposed scope of services has also been included to provide an overview of work elements envisioned as necessary for project completion. The listing of tasks will also serve as the basis for computing monthly progress payments. The proposed work program has been organized into the following tasks: Task 1 Task 2 Task 3 Task 4 Task 5 Task 6 Task 7 Task 8 Task 9 Task 10 Task 11 Study Design Inventory and Data Collection Forecasts of Aviation Demand Facility Requirements Concept Development Airport Plans Cost Estimate/Funding Plan Airport Environmental Evaluation/Analysis Meetings/Presentations Final Documentation/Deliverables Project Administration SCOPE OF WORK Task 1 Study Design This task involves the finalization of the work program for the Airport Master Plan. The Consultant will meet with the City to define the scope of services to be included in the project. Based upon input from the City, a work program will be finalized which defines the scope of the study and Consultant's responsibilities. This will serve as the scope of services to be included in the Consultant Agreement between the City and Consultant. This will include defining project budget and schedule. Task 2 Inventory and Data Collection This work element covers the collection of all types of data pertaining to Lompoc Airport. This includes inventory of existing airport facilities, City, County, Regional, and State planning programs, aviation forecasts, environmental considerations, and historical information which relates to air transportation. 1
A Visioning workshop will be conducted as part of the first meeting of the Technical Advisory Committee to define issues, airport role and current airport deficiencies or problems. The results of the workshop will be documented in Chapter 1, Introduction, of the Master Plan Examples of data to be collected (to the extent that it is available) and reviewed shall include, but not be limited to, the following: A. Description and size of existing facilities including: the runways; taxiways; aprons, pavement strength and soil characteristics; lighting; fueling facilities and existing airfield property lines. An existing Airport Layout Plan (ALP) will be prepared on AutoCAD based on aerial photogrametric survey, and will form the basis of the ultimate ALP to be prepared. Digital mapping will be provided by the City at a scale of 1 inch = 40 feet with 1 foot contours. Preparation of the existing ALP involves formatting of the digital mapping for presentation as an ALP. This scope does not include aerial mapping or surveying by the Consultant. These are assumed to be provided by the City through its city mapping project. City will provide in electronic (preferably AutoCAD) or hardcopy format any airport property and/or tenant lease maps that may be available for the airport. B. Airspace Structure and Navaids: Preliminary investigations of airspace use and interaction with nearby airports, airways, control zones, and air traffic procedures will be made. Air navigational aids and aviation communication facilities will be inventoried. Airport obstructions will be identified based on U.S. Geological Survey quad sheets, sectional aeronautical chart, and information provided by applicable agencies pertaining to the location of towers, utility lines, trees, etc. The area will be visually inspected to verify the data and responsible local agencies will be contacted to evaluate proposed structures that may result in aeronautical obstructions. C. Terminal and Support Areas, including: administration building; auto parking; hangars, apron and support services and facilities such as fuel, airport maintenance, security (perimeter fences and gates), access and traffic circulation (internal and external). D. Airport Activity: Historical airport activity levels (aircraft operations, number and type of based aircraft, and fuel flowage) will be compiled and tabulated to the extent possible. Data sources are expected to be the City, previous master plan and FAA Terminal Area Forecast. E. Historical Review of the Airport: the history of the Airport will be provided in a brief narrative based on available data. F. Airport Plans and Studies: existing plans and previous studies prepared in connection with development and operation of the Airport, will be reviewed and catalogued as resources to the project. Additionally, a review will be made of those relevant elements of the California Aviation System Plan and the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems. G. Meteorological Data: to the extent that useable data is available from the National Climatic Data 2
Center, weather data will be obtained to prepare wind roses for inclusion on the ALP. The frequency of various ceiling and visibility conditions will be provided for all-weather conditions, and IFR conditions provided that data is available. The costs associated with this task involve coordination of obtaining data, data costs, processing data to generate wind roses and review of ceiling/visibility frequencies. It is understood that data for Lompoc Airport from NCDC is available in FAA format and that the source of the recorded weather observations is the AWOS. If not the nearest location for which data is available will be used. H. Utilities: An overview of existing utility services serving the Airport will be prepared based on data provided by the City and information to be requested from the applicable utility services by the Consultant. Provision of the data by the City in electronic format is preferred, however, City will provide data in currently available form. I. Economic/Demographic Review: Reviews of historical and projected economic and demographic growth within the City will be made to the extent related to the future growth and development of the Airport. J. Land Use Regulations/Zoning: Existing land uses surrounding the Airport will be identified. Local land use ordinances will be reviewed to identify potential impediments they may pose to future airport development. The Consultant will also contact or meet with FBOs, FAA, and other users of the Airport to identify issues and solicit input for the study. Additionally, an airport activity survey form will be developed by DMJM Aviation for mail-out distribution and completion by existing based aircraft owners at the Airport to provide input into the nature of their operations and to solicit comments on deficiencies, strengths and/or needs at the Airport. The City will provide a mailing list of based aircraft owners. Task 3 Forecast of Aviation Demand This task involves the preparation of a forecast of general aviation demand for the short (5-year), intermediate (6-10 years) and long-range (11-20 year) planning periods. The forecast shall form the basis of the other tasks in the work program including facility requirements analysis, phasing, environmental evaluation analysis and financial planning. The latest forecasts as prepared by Caltrans (CASP) and FAA (Terminal Area Forecast) will be reviewed. The forecast of based aircraft will consider aircraft based in the Competitive Market Area (to be defined by the Consultant) of airports serving general aviation and the potential share of aircraft that might be attracted to Lompoc Airport. Forecasts of the following parameters will be prepared: A. Based Aircraft by Type. The number of aircraft stored at Lompoc Airport on an annual basis by the following type of aircraft will be projected: 3
Single-Engine Piston Multi-Engine Piston Turboprop Business Jet Rotor Other B. Aircraft Movements. Landings and takeoffs performed by based aircraft and transient aircraft will be forecast. Annual military aircraft operations will be projected. General aviation movements will be forecast by the types of aircraft shown for based aircraft above. Total annual local and itinerant operations will be projected. Annual operations will be based on available published information, the airport manager and traffic counts to the extent that data exists. Total annual operations by time of day, to the extent that this information is required. C. Critical Aircraft. The critical aircraft type will be identified for defining applicable FAA design standards. D. Fuel Flowage. Gallons of fuel sold annually; used to project fuel storage requirements. Projected fuel flowage will be developed based on historical fuel sales/flowage data reported by the City and best judgment of the Consultant. Task 4 Facility Requirements Estimates of the sizes and spatial relationships of runway/taxiway system, areas of aircraft parking apron, numbers of vehicular parking spaces, and overall aircraft service requirements will be provided. Results obtained from these analyses will provide a basis for developing the details of the airport layout plan and for determining the feasibility of development considered. Major elements of this part of the study are: A. Aircraft Operations Requirements. Operational requirements of the critical aircraft will be determined including the runway pavement strength; safety areas; taxiway locations; runway/taxiway separation standards; apron dimensions and, aircraft servicing facilities (i.e., hangars, tie-downs and fueling) and attendant airport facilities. These requirements will be based on the latest FAA design standards as contained in FAA Advisory Circular 150/5300-13, Airport Design. Runway length requirements will be determined through use of the FAA Airport Design program, input from the user survey and interviews with major users, as well as consideration of aircraft performance data for specific critical aircraft. Findings and recommendations will be documented and justified. Helipad requirements will be identified based on the design helicopter. B. Airfield Capacity. Airfield capacity will be determined using the FAA Airport Design program 4
and consistent with FAA Advisory Circular 150/5060-5, Airport Capacity and Delay. Annual service volume and hourly capacities will be identified from Chapter 2 of the advisory circular and checked for reasonableness based on calculations in Chapter 3 of the advisory circular, as well as the capacity analysis contained in the previous (1993) master plan. C. Navigational Aids and ATC. The need for and location of navigational aids will be based on FAA criteria, weather data and input received from based aircraft owners. The need for other visual aids will be based upon FAA standards and traffic activity criteria. The potential enhancement of existing instrument approach procedures will be discussed with FAA. D. Terminal Area Capacity. Individual elements comprising the terminal area will be analyzed in terms of their present and required capacity. Terminal area elements to be analyzed include: Terminal/Administration building Aircraft aprons Aircraft tie-downs Conventional and T-hangars Auto parking E. Airport Access Requirements. Existing airport access roads and on-airport parking facilities will be reviewed in conjunction with the functional area requirements presented above. F. Utilities. The determination for water, electricity, sewer, gas, and telecommunications utilities will be based on the likely needs of the airport for such services under the long term (20 year) forecast of traffic. Discussions will be conducted with various public and private authorities supplying these services to discover whether there are abnormal problems, either in absolute terms, or in excessive cost. The product of this task is to identify relevant issues such that utilities are appropriately recognized in recommendations of the master plan. The final product of this task is a list of required facility improvements such as length, width and strength of runways; type and location of taxiways; size of aircraft parking aprons; general aviation terminal building; type and location of navigational aids; types and numbers of hangars and tiedowns; fuel storage; and, number of auto parking spaces. Area estimates for fixed base operations and general aviation facilities, and infrastructure (in general terms) will be provided. Area not required for aviation uses, if applicable, will be identified for possible non-aviation development to enhance airport revenues. Task 5 Concept Development Up to three (3) alternatives depicting airside and/or landside development will be analyzed in addition to a No Build alternative that represent future choices for airport development. Task 5.1 Airfield Development The analysis of airfield development will address extending the runway to the maximum length possible considering limitations posed by the existing property line, adjacent roads and floodplain. The maximum possible runway length will be identified. Options for a runway extension are limited 5
and scenarios other than a maximum length concept are not expected. This includes consideration of the potential effect of key environmental issues. This is not a comprehensive or quantitative environmental analysis, but will be a comparative review of environmental issues. Permits that may be needed for projects in each alternative will be identified. Task 5.2 Landside Development The scarcity of available land does not lend itself to various landside development concepts. It is expected that landside development will consist of build-out of hangar facilities on the north side, hangar development on the south side, and development of 13 acres on the south side. The latter may involve a mix of aeronautical and non-aeronautical uses. This includes consideration of the potential effect of key environmental issues. This is not a comprehensive or quantitative environmental analysis, but will be a comparative review of environmental issues. Permits that may be needed for projects in each alternative will be identified. Task 5.4 No Build Alternative The consequences of no action as it relates to airfield and landside facilities will be summarized in narrative form. Task 6 Airport Plans The objective of this task is to develop a set of Airport Plans which establish the configuration of runways, taxiways, aprons, navigational aids, and structures. The layout plans will conform to Federal guidelines for the production of these drawings including the latest version of the FAA Western Pacific Region ALP Checklist. The Consultant will prepare separate plans which consist of the following drawings containing the indicated information. A. Airport Layout Plan (ALP) - This large-scale drawing, which will indicate the staging of various future recommendations, will be prepared for the Airport on AutoCAD and will graphically present the recommended development program. Consultant will provide the City with an AutoCAD file for the final version of the ALP at the completion of the project. Information shown on the Airport Layout Plan will include the following: 1. Prominent airfield facilities (i.e., runways, taxiways, navigational aids, weather equipment, lighting systems, aprons, buildings, roadways, parking, boundary plantings). 2. Aviation and related development areas (i.e., terminal, hangars, FBOs, maintenance and aviation support areas (i.e., fueling), and revenue support areas (industrial/commercial non- 6
aviation development). 3. Runway protection zones and other restricted areas. Obstructions identified on USGS maps, through the digital mapping provided by the City, and other sources that are within the coverage of the ALP base map will be depicted. 4. Boundary lines and avigation easements. 5. Basic data tables, including deviations from FAA design standards. 6. Wind data and source. 7. Location and Vicinity Maps. 8. Miscellaneous features such as security gates, perimeter fencing, fire hydrant locations, utility easements, drainage ditches, etc. as provided by mapping or other documents. 9. Existing facilities will be depicted in a solid line and future (ultimate) facilities will be shown in a different line type in accordance with FAA guidelines. B. Airport Airspace Drawing - Large-scale graphic presenting all FAR Part 77 imaginary surfaces based on ultimate development. Part 77 surfaces will be superimposed over a base map of current USGS quad sheets at a scale of 1 inch = 2,000 feet. Obstruction tables identifying obstructions, elevation, penetration of Part 77 surfaces, and proposed action will be included and prepared by the Consultant. Sources of information for the obstruction tables will be based on current USGS quad sheets, data available from NOAA, and other data that may be available from the project and visual observation. DMJM Aviation will provide the FAR Part 77 imaginary surfaces in AutoCAD to the City. C. Inner Portion of the Approach Surface Plan This plan will present for each runway end a plan view of the inner portion of the FAR Part 77 approach surface out to a point where the approach surface reaches a height that is approximately 100 feet above the runway end. Runway Protection Zones (RPZ), runway safety areas, object free areas and obstacle free zones will also be depicted on the plan view. Traverse ways crossing the approach surface will be identified based on available information as well as other objects within the approach area. Profile views of the corresponding plan views will be prepared. Obstruction tables identifying obstructions, elevation, penetration of Part 77 surfaces, and proposed action will be included and prepared by the Consultant. Sources of information for the obstruction tables will be based on current USGS quad sheets, data available from digital mapping, and other data that may be available from the project and visual observation. D. Property Map - An airport property map, Exhibit A, will be prepared in accordance with FAA guidelines. The property map will be based on a review of recorded deeds and available surveys to be provided by the City to indicate boundaries of various tracts. The map will include a data table and identify for each applicable tract: location, acreage, ownership, date of acquisition, County record information, how the tract was acquired, relation to the Airport, A.I.P. or federal project number if applicable, and miscellaneous comments. The contents of the data table will be based on available information provided by the City. Any land determined to not be required for aeronautical 7
uses will be identified. Task 7 Task 7.1 Cost Estimate/Funding Plan Development Schedule and Cost Estimate The objective of this element is to develop the staging and cost for all major capital improvements needed to provide for anticipated aviation demand at Lompoc Airport. The development program depicted on the Airport Layout Plan will be tabulated in a schedule for the three planning periods. The phasing of the major functional areas will be depicted on the ALP. The initial schedule preparation will be gauged to meet the demand forecast. The objective is to establish a means of determining an efficient order for project development and implementation. Special emphasis shall be placed upon airport improvement projects proposed for the short (5-year) term planning period, to facilitate incorporation into the standard initial five-year CIP format. Estimated land acquisition and construction costs of improvements set forth in the airport plans will be developed and included in the master plan. Cost estimates will be developed by the Consultant for each project and summarized by planning period (i.e., short, intermediate and long range). Task 7.2 Funding Plan Similar to the previous master plan, an assessment of potential funding sources for proposed capital improvements (to include federal, state, City and private sources) will be prepared. The intent is to identify the requirement for City funds for implementation of projects, and identify potential requests for FAA and state grants. Task 8 Prepare Environmental Evaluation/Analysis The purpose of this task is to provide an overview of various environmental factors associated with future airport development alternatives. This environmental evaluation/analysis may be used as a reference in the development of further environmental requirements in the future. This environmental evaluation/analysis is not intended to serve as a formal Environmental Assessment (EA) under National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) or an Initial Study under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The preparation of these documents is beyond this scope of work. A baseline evaluation will be prepared for the purpose of assuring that environmental factors which may be affected by the development and/or operations at the airport are properly evaluated and considered in any future development of the airport. The environmental analysis will include all environmental impact categories as identified in FAA Order 1050.1D, Policies and Procedures for Considering Environmental Impacts, FAA Order 5050.4B, Airport Environmental Handbook, FAA Environmental Desk Reference for Airport Actions (October 2007), and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) will be assessed to the degree necessary to determine if the airport proposals outlined in the Plan could have a significant adverse impact on the environment. The City of Lompoc if appropriate would complete preparation of a negative declaration. The preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), Environmental Assessment (EA) or 8
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), should it be required, is beyond the scope of this contract. The following is a list of the specific categories described by FAA Order 5050.4B to be addressed. Noise Light Emissions Compatible Land Use Coastal Zone Management Program Social Impacts including Environmental Historic, Architectural, Archeological and Justice Cultural Resources Air Quality DOT Act, Section 4(f) Water Quality Energy Supply and Natural Resources Wetlands Biotic Communities Floodplains Endangered and Threatened Species of Flora and Fauna Wild and Scenic Rivers Solid Waste Impacts Coastal Barriers Construction Impacts Farmlands Induced Socioeconomic Impacts Noise is not expected to exceed thresholds requiring a noise analysis, therefore the preparation of noise contours is not included. The previous master plan included noise contours which may be referenced for general indications of potential noise exposure, especially if project aircraft operations are similar to those that were used to prepare noise contours. The Consultant will review the current CLUP and provide appropriate narrative and comment on areas where new data generated in the Master Plan differs from the CLUP. The scope of work does not include preparing a CLUP update. The comment on the CLUP will include guidance on the type of development surrounding the airport that is compatible with the airport. Task 9 Meetings/Presentations It is proposed that a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) be established to monitor and review work, and provide input throughout the planning process. It is expected that the TAC will be composed of representatives of local, regional, state (Caltrans Aeronautics Division) and federal (FAA) agencies, airport users and tenants, local community representatives, the local business community. The Consultant shall attend three (3) meetings with the Technical Advisory Committee to present status reports. The timing will be at the discretion of City but it is anticipated that one will be at the beginning of the project, one after the submission of the Draft Final Report, and one at the approximate midpoint of the project to discuss alternatives. Additionally up to three (3) meetings/presentations to the Airport Commission are also planned. It is also expected that a member of members of the Airport Commission will participate as members of the Technical Advisory Committee. These will be timed to coincide with TAC meetings (to be scheduled the evening of the same day as a TAC meeting), so as not to involve additional costs. Since these are public meetings, they will also serve as public information meetings for the strategic development plan. 9
Additionally, one (1) public open house will be conducted to present the findings of the study to the general public. The timing will be at the discretion of the City but it is recommended that the meeting be held when future development concepts for the airport are available. Presentations will be formal, with the Consultant providing necessary data and exhibits. Presentations will be in MS PowerPoint format. The City will be responsible for arranging meeting rooms and advertising meetings. The consultant will be responsible for recording meeting minutes of TAC meetings. The scope of work does not include transcript services such as court stenographer, or minutes of City meetings. Task 10 Final Documentation/Deliverables The preparation of the Master Plan will be documented through the preparation of a series of reports. An interim report will be submitted and shall document findings and analyses conducted through Task 4, Facility Requirements. Twenty (20) copies of the interim report will be provided. The Interim Report is intended as a working document and will be superseded by the Draft Final Report. The report will include a glossary of terms and abbreviations used in the study. A Draft Final Report will be prepared which will document all work tasks. This report will include updated information received via comments on the Interim Report and will present the draft plan and conclusions of the study to the City and FAA for review and comment. Twenty (20) copies of the Draft Final Report will be provided. Following review and comment of the Draft Final Report, appropriate revisions will be made and a Final Report will be published. Twenty (20) copies of the Final Report will be furnished to the City which includes copies required for submittal to the FAA. The Final Report will include signed (approved) copies of the Airport Layout Plan. Copies of reports will also be provided to the City electronically in PDF formats. The documentation of the Airport Layout Plan will also include the preparation of airport drawings described in Task 6, Airport Plans. One (1) color copy of draft airport plans will be provided for review by FAA and seven (7) copies of the ALP drawing. Upon receipt of comments from the City and FAA, plans will be revised accordingly. The final submission of full size airport plans will include five (5) sets of color plots. A copy of the AutoCAD files containing the ALP and supporting drawings will also be provided to the City. Reviews by FAA and Caltrans include the following: Interim Report including forecasts Draft Final Report Draft Final Airport Layout Plan (ALP) Task 11 Project Administration This task involves the overall management of the project to ensure compliance with the scope of services, schedule, budget and quality control, and coordination of the project with the City. It 10
primarily involves coordination by the Project Manager in establishing schedule and budgets, monitoring overall adherence to schedule and overall project performance, preparation of progress reports and monthly invoices, processing of subconsultant invoices, intra-team project management, and quality control. This task would include teleconferencing as needed to coordinate with City and FAA. 11
