FAA Notification (Form
7460-1)
In any zone that is overlain by an Airport
Safety Combining Zone (AS Zone), the
requirements
and standards of this section
shall apply
in addition to those specified in
the ordinance for the underlying zone. If a
conflict in regulations or standards occurs,
the more restrictive provisions shall govern.
18.80.010 Purpose.
The purpose of the AS Zone is to restrict
incompatible land uses and airspace
obstructions around airports in an effort to
maintain an airport's maximum benefit. The
imaginary surfaces and zones; boundaries
and their use limitations comprise the AS
Zone. Any uses permitted outright or by
conditional use in the underlying zone are
allowed except as provided for in 18.80.044,
050, 054, 056 and 058. The protection of
each airport's imaginary surfaces will be
accomplished through the use of those land
use controls deemed necessary to protect
the community it serves. Incompatible uses
may include the height of trees, buildings,
structures or other items and uses that
would be subject to frequent aircraft over-
flight or might intrude into areas used by air-
craft.
18.80.020 Application of Provisions.
The provisions of this section shall only
apply to unincorporated areas located under
airport imaginary surfaces and zones,
including approach surfaces, transitional
surfaces, horizontal surfaces, conical
surfaces and runway protection zones.
While this Chapter identifies dimensions for
the entire imaginary surface and zone, parts
of the surfaces and/or zones do not apply
within the Redmond, Bend or Sisters Urban
Growth Boundaries. The Redmond Airport
is owned and operated by the City of
Redmond, and located wholly within the
Redmond City Limits.
Imaginary surface dimensions vary for each
airport covered by this section. Based on
the classification of each individual airport,
only those portions (of the AS Zone) that
overlay existing County zones are relevant.
Public use airports covered by this section
include Redmond Municipal, Bend
Municipal, Sunriver and Sisters Eagle Air.
Although it is a public -use airport, due to its
size and other factors, the County treats
land uses surrounding the Sisters Eagle Air
airport based on the ORS 836.608
requirements for private -use airports. The
Oregon Department of Aviation is still
studying what land use requirements will
ultimately be applied to Sisters. However,
contrary to the requirements of ORS
836.608, as will all public use airports,
federal law requires that the FAA Part 77
surfaces must be applied. The private use
airports covered by this section include
Cline Falls Airpark and Juniper Airpark.
PAGE 1 OF 21 - EXHIBIT "B" TO ORDINANCE NO. 2001-001 (1/24/01)
18.80.022 Definitions
1. Aircraft. Helicopters and airplanes,
but not hot air balloons or ultralights.
(Balloons are governed by FAR Part 30,
and ultralights by FAR Part 103. Ultralights
are basically unregulated by the FAA.)
2. Airport. The strip of land used for
taking off and landing aircraft, together with
all adjacent land used in connection with the
aircraft landing or taking off from the strip of
land, including but not limited to land used
for existing airport uses.

For the Redmond, Bend, Sunriver and
Sisters airports, the imaginary surfaces are
defined by the primary surface, runway
protection zone, approach surface,
horizontal surface, conical surface and
transitional surface.
For the Cline Falls and Juniper airports, the
imaginary areas are only defined by the
primary surface and approach surface.
6. Airport Noise Criterion. The State
criterion for airport noise is an Average Day -
Night Sound Level (DNL) of 55 decibels
(dBA). The Airport Noise Criterion is not
designed to be a standard for imposing
liability or any other legal obligation except
as specifically designated pursuant to OAR
340, Division 35.
7. Airport Noise Impact Boundary.
Areas located within 1,500 feet of an airport
runway or within established noise contour
boundaries exceeding 55 Ldn.
8. Airport Safety Combining Zone (AS
Zone). A Deschutes County zone intended
to place additional land use conditions on
land impacted by the airport while retaining
the existing underlying zone. The airport
imaginary surfaces, impact areas,
boundaries and their use limitations
comprise the AS Zone. The AS Zone may
apply to either public -use or private -use
airports.

surface will be that width prescribed in this
subsection for the most precise approach
existing or planned for that runway end.
For the Cline Falls and Juniper airports:
(D) The inner edge of the approach
surface is the same width as the primary
surface and it expands uniformly to a width
of 450 feet for that end of a private use
airport with only visual approaches. The
approach surface extends for a horizontal
distance of 2,500 feet at a slope of 20 feet
outward for each one foot upward.
13. Average Day -Night Sound Level
(DNL). Average day -night sound level is the
FAA standard measure for determining the
cumulative exposure of individuals to noise.
DNL is the equivalent of noise levels
produced by aircraft operations during a 24-
hour period, with a ten -decibel penalty
applied to the level measured during
nighttime hours (10:00 p.m. to 7:00 am).
14. Conical Surface. An element of the
airport imaginary surfaces that extends
outward and upward from the periphery of
the horizontal surface at a slope of 20:1 for
a horizontal distance of 4,000 feet and to a

obstructions to navigable airspace.
20. Heigh. The highest point of a
structure or tree, plant or other object of
natural growth, measured from mean sea
level.
21. Horizontal Surface. A horizontal
plane 150 feet above the established airport
elevation, the perimeter of which is
constructed by swinging arcs of specified
radii from the center of each end of the
primary surface of each runway of each
airport and connecting the adjacent arcs by
lines tangent to those arcs. The radius of
each arc is:
(A) 5,000 feet for all runways designated as
utility.
(B) 10,000 feet for all other runways.
(C) The radius of the arc specified for each
end of a runway will have the same
arithmetical value. That value will be the
highest determined for either end of the
runway. When a 5,000 -foot arc is
encompassed by tangents connecting two
adjacent 10,000 -foot arcs, the 5,000 -foot
arc shall be disregarded on the construction
of the perimeter of the horizontal surface.
22. Non -precision Instrument Runway.
A runway having an existing instrument
approach procedure utilizing air navigation
facilities with only horizontal guidance, or
area type navigation equipment, for which a
straight -in non -precision instrument
approach has been approved, or planned,
and for which no precision approach
facilities are planned or indicated on an
FAA -approved airport layout plan or other
FAA planning document.
23. Non -Towered Airport. An airport
without an existing or approved control
tower.
24. Obstruction. Any structure or tree,

propeller -driven aircraft exceeding 12,500
pounds gross weight.
26. Precision Instrument Runway. A
runway having an existing instrument
approach procedure utilizing air navigation
facilities that provide both horizontal and
vertical guidance, such as an Instrument
Landing System (ILS) or Precision
Approach Radar (PAR). It also means a
runway for which a precision approach
system is planned and is so indicated by an
FAA -approved airport layout plan or other
FAA planning document.
27. Primary Surface. A surface
longitudinally centered on a runway.
For the Redmond, Bend, Sunriver, and
Sisters airports, when a runway has a
specially prepared hard surface, the primary
surface extends 200 feet beyond each end
of that runway. When a runway has no
specially prepared hard surface, or planned
hard surface, the primary surface ends at
each end of that runway. The elevation of
any point on the primary surface is the
same as the elevation of the nearest point
on the runway centerline. The width of the
primary surface is:
(A) 250 feet for utility runways with only
visual approaches,
(B) 500 feet for utility runways having non -
precision instrument approaches,
(C) 500 feet for other than utility runways
having non -precision instrument
approaches with visibility minimums greater
than three-fourths statute mile, and
(D) 1,000 feet for non -precision instrument
runways with visibility minimums at or below
three-fourths statute mile, and for precision
instrument runways.
For the Cline Falls and Juniper airports, The
primary surface ends at each end of a
runway. The elevation of any point on the
primary surface is the same as the elevation
of the nearest point on the runway
centerline. The width of the primary surface
is 200 feet.
28. Public Assembly Facility. A
permanent or temporary structure or facility,
place or activity where concentrations of
people gather in reasonably close quarters
for purposes such as deliberation,

entertainment, recreation, sporting events,
or similar activities. Public assembly
facilities include, but are not limited to,
schools, churches, conference or
convention facilities, employment and
shopping centers, arenas, athletic fields,
stadiums, clubhouses, museums, and
similar facilities and places, but do not
include parks, golf courses or similar
facilities unless used in a manner where
people are concentrated in reasonably close
quarters. Public assembly facilities also do
not include air shows, structures or uses
approved by the FAA in an adopted airport
master plan, or places where people
congregate for short periods of time such as
parking lots or bus stops.
29. Runway. A defined area on an
airport prepared for landing and takeoff of
aircraft along its length.
30. Runway Protection Zone (RPZ). An
area off the runway end used to enhance
the protection of people and property on the
ground. The RPZ is trapezoidal in shape
and centered about the extended runway
centerline. The inner width of the RPZ is
the same as the width of the primary
surface. The outer width of the RPZ is a
function of the type of aircraft and specified
approach visibility minimum associated with
the runway end. The RPZ extends from
each end of the primary surface for a
horizontal distance of:
(A) 1,000 feet for utility runways.
(B) 1,700 feet for other than utility runways
having non -precision instrument
approaches.

specified by airport type in OAR 660,
Division 13, Exhibit 4]
31. Significant. As it relates to bird
strike hazards, "significant" means a level of
increased flight activity by birds across an
PAGE 4 OF 21 - EXHIBIT "B° TO ORDINANCE NO. 2001-001 (1/24/01)
approach surface or runway that is more
than incidental or occasional, considering
the existing ambient level of flight activity by
birds in the vicinity.
32. Structure. Any constructed or
erected object, which requires a location on
the ground or is attached to something
located on the ground. Structures include
but are not limited to buildings, decks,
fences, signs, towers, cranes, flagpoles,
antennas, smokestacks, earth formations
and overhead transmission lines.
Structures do not include paved areas.
33. Transitional Surface. Those
surfaces that extend upward and outward at
90 degree angles to the runway centerline
and the runway centerline extended at a
slope of seven (7) feet horizontally for each
foot vertically from the sides of the primary
and approach surfaces to the point of
intersection with the horizontal and conical
surfaces. Transitional surfaces for those
portions of the precision approach surfaces
which project through and beyond the limits
of the conical surface, extend a distance of
5,000 feet measured horizontally from the
edge of the approach surface and at a 90
degree angle to the extended runway
centerline.
34. Utility Runway. A runway that is
constructed for and intended to be used by
propeller driven aircraft of 12,500 maximum
gross weight and less.
35. Visual Runway. A runway intended
solely for the operation of aircraft using
visual approach procedures, where no
straight -in instrument approach procedures

Category 1, Commercial Service Airport. Its
function is to accommodate scheduled
major/national or regional commuter
commercial air carrier service. The two
approximately 7,040' long by 100'-150'
wide, "other than utility" paved runways are
located at an elevation of 3,077'. The
proposed extension to runway 4-22 and the
planned new parallel runway are both
identified on the FAA -adopted Airport
Layout Plan. Therefore, these
improvements are used in the layout of the
Airport Safety Combining Zone. The same
safety zone dimensional standards used for
Runway 4-22 will also apply to the planned
parallel runway.
1. Primary Surface - For Redmond,
the primary surfaces are 1,000' wide by
7,440' long for Runway 10-28, 1,000' wide

wide by 7,400' long for the proposed new
parallel runway.
2. Runway Protection Zone (RPZ)-
Two different RPZs apply to the Redmond
Airport because it has a total of three
potential runways with two possible
approaches. Runway 4-22 and the planned
parallel runway will both have precision
approaches. Runway 10-28 has a non -
precision approach on each end. The
precision RPZ forms a 1,000' wide by 2,500'
long by 1,750' wide trapezoid while the non -
precision RPZ forms a 500' wide by 1,700'
long by 1,010' wide trapezoid.

18.80.044 Land Use Compatibility
Requirements.
Applications for land use or building permits
for properties within the boundaries of this
overlay zone shall comply with the
requirements of this chapter as provided
herein. When compatibility issues arise, the
Planning Director or Hearings Body is
required to take actions that eliminate or
minimize the incompatibility by choosing the
most compatible location or design for the
boundary or use. Where compatibility
issues persist, despite actions or conditions
intended to eliminate or minimize the
incompatibility, the Planning Director or
Hearings Body may disallow the use or
expansion, except where the action results
PAGE 8 OF 21 - EXHIBIT "B" TO ORDINANCE NO. 2001-001 (1/24/01)
in loss of current operational levels and/or
the ability of the airport to grow to meet
future community needs. Reasonable
conditions to protect the public safety may
be imposed by the Planning Director or
Hearings Body. [ORS 836.619; ORS
836.623(1); OAR 660-013-0080]
1. Noise. Within airport noise impact
boundaries, land uses shall be established
consistent with the levels identified in OAR
660, Division 13, Exhibit 5 (Table 2 of this
Chapter). Applicants for any subdivision or
partition approval or other land use approval
or building permit affecting land within
airport noise impact boundaries, shall sign
and record in the Deschutes County Book of
Records, a Declaration of Anticipated Noise
declaring that the applicant and his
successors will not now, or in the future
complain about the allowed airport activities
at the adjacent airport. In areas where the
noise level is anticipated to be at or above
55 Ldn, prior to issuance of a building
permit for construction of a noise sensitive
land use (real property normally used for
sleeping or as a school, church, hospital,
public library or similar use), the permit
applicant shall be required to demonstrate
that a noise abatement strategy will be
incorporated into the building design that
will achieve an indoor noise level equal to or
less than 55 Ldn. [NOTE: FAA Order
5100.38A, Chapter 7 provides that interior
noise levels should not exceed 45 decibels
in all habitable zones.]
2. Outdoor lighting. No new or
expanded industrial, commercial or
recreational use shall project lighting directly
onto an existing runway or taxiway or into
existing airport approach surfaces except
where necessary for safe and convenient air
travel. Lighting for these uses shall
incorporate shielding in their designs to
reflect light away from airport approach
surfaces. No use shall imitate airport
lighting or impede the ability of pilots to
distinguish between airport lighting and
other lighting.
3. Glare. No glare producing material,
including but not limited to unpainted metal
or reflective glass, shall be used on the
exterior of structures located within an
approach surface or on nearby lands where
glare could impede a pilot's vision.
4. Industrial emissions. No new
industrial, mining or similar use, or
expansion of an existing industrial, mining
or similar use, shall, as part of its regular
operations, cause emissions of smoke, dust
or steam that could obscure visibility within
airport approach surfaces, except upon
demonstration, supported by substantial
evidence, that mitigation measures imposed
as approval conditions will reduce the
potential for safety risk or incompatibility
with airport operations to an insignificant
level. The review authority shall impose
such conditions as necessary to ensure that
the use does not obscure visibility.
5. Communications Facilities and
Electrical Interference. No use shall cause
or create electrical interference with
navigational signals or radio
communications between an airport and
aircraft. Proposals for the location of new or
expanded radio, radiotelephone, and
television transmission facilities and
electrical transmission lines within this
overlay zone shall be coordinated with the
Department of Aviation and the FAA prior to
approval. Approval of cellular and other
telephone or radiocommunication towers on
leased property located within airport
imaginary surfaces shall be conditioned to
require their removal within 90 days
following the expiration of the lease
agreement. A bond or other security shall
be required to ensure this result.

significant increase in hazardous
movements of birds feeding, watering or
roosting in areas across the runways or
approach corridors.
[NOTE: FAA Part 77 discourages water
impoundments within 50,000 feet of a
runway, within an approach surface.] [ORS
836.623(2)(c); OAR 660, Division 13,
Exhibit 1, Section 3(b)(C)J
3. Process. An application for
approval of a new water impoundment shall
be considered utilizing the review process
applied to applications for conditional use
permits. In addition to the parties required
by law to be mailed written notice of the
public hearing on the application, written
notice of the hearing shall be mailed to the
airport sponsor, the Seattle Airports District
Office of the FAA, the FAA's technical
representative, and the Oregon Department
of Aviation.
(A) Prior to filing its application, the
applicant shall coordinate with the airport
sponsor, the Department of Aviation, and
the FAA (Seattle Airports District Office) and
FAA's technical representative regarding
the proposed water impoundment, its short
and long term potential to significantly
increase hazardous movements of birds
feeding, watering or roosting in areas
across runways or approach surfaces, and
proposed mitigation.
(1) For water impoundments
individually or cumulatively exceeding five
(5) acres in size on the subject property, the
applicant shall prepare a draft bird strike
study as provided in subsection (2) of this
section. The airport sponsor, the
Department of Aviation, and the FAA and
FAA's technical representative shall have
45 days to review the study draft. Their
comments shall be included and addressed
in a final bird strike study.
(2) For water impoundments that
do not individually or cumulatively exceed
five (5) acres in size on the subject property,
the bird strike study requirements in
subsection (B) of this section may be
reduced or waived upon agreement by the
airport sponsor, the Department of Aviation,
and the FAA and FAA's technical
representative if the applicant can
PAGE 11 OF 21 - EXHIBIT "B" TO ORDINANCE NO. 2001-001 (1/24/01)
demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the
airport sponsor, the Department of Aviation,
and the FAA and FAA's technical
representative that the proposed water
impoundment, with appropriate short and
long term mitigation, will not result in a
significant increase in hazardous
movements of birds feeding, watering or
roosting in areas across runways or
approach surfaces. As used herein,
"appropriate mitigation" means small scale
measures of proven reliability that can be
applied in perpetuity and that the applicant
has the financial resources to support.
(3) An application shall not be
deemed complete for land use review
purposes until the applicant has filed with
the Director the final bird strike study
addressing comments from the airport
sponsor, the Department of Aviation, and
the FAA and FAA's technical representative.
When no bird strike study is required, the
application shall not be deemed complete
until the applicant has filed with the Director
correspondence or other proof
demonstrating agreement among the airport
sponsor, the Department of Aviation, and
the FAA and FAA's technical representative
that no bird strike study is required.
(B) Bird Strike Study. A bird strike
study required under this section shall
contain at least the following information:
(1) A description of the proposed
project, its location in relation to the airport,
and the bird strike study area, which shall
include at least the project site, the airport
property, all lands within 10,000 feet from
the end or edge of the airport runway, and
other surrounding habitat areas which form
the local bird ecosystem.
(2) A description of bird feeding,
watering and roosting habitats in the bird
strike study area, including discussion of
feeding behavior and food sources and
identification of loafing, watering, roosting
and nesting area locations.
(3) A description of existing and
planned airport operations and air traffic
patterns and any available history of bird
strike incidents.
(4) Wildlife surveys and
documentation of existing bird species,
populations, activities and flight patterns in
the bird strike study area. The surveys shall
address bird species and their composition;
bird population estimates and densities per
unit area; feeding behavior; food sources;
seasonal use patterns; frequency of
occurrence; location of loafing, roosting and
nesting areas; and analysis of the relation of
bird flight movements to airport traffic
patterns and navigational safety. The
airport sponsor shall provide approach and
departure air space information up to five
statutory miles from the airport.
(5) An evaluation of the
anticipated effects of the proposal on the
population density, behavior patterns,
movements and species composition of
birds within the bird strike study area and of
the impact of these effects on air navigation
and safety considering possible mitigation.
(6) Identification and evaluation of
proposed and alternative short and long
term mitigation measures that would
prevent a significant increase in hazardous
movements of birds feeding, watering or
roosting in areas across runways and
approach surfaces that otherwise might
result from the proposed use. The
evaluation shall discuss the proven
reliability of proposed measures, their
effectiveness over both the short and long
term, their costs, and the applicant's
financial ability to assure their perpetual
implementation, i.e. ongoing implementation
for as long as a potential bird strike hazard
persists.
(7) Such other information as is
recommended by the FAA's technical
representative or is required to demonstrate
compliance with the requirements of
subsection (C) of this section.
(C) Required Findings. The
determination whether a proposed new
water impoundment, with reasonable and
practicable mitigation measures, is likely to
significantly increase hazardous movements
of birds feeding, watering or roosting in
areas across runways or approach surfaces
shall be based upon the proposal's
PAGE 12 OF 21 - EXHIBITS' TO ORDINANCE NO. 2001-001 (1/24/01)
potential, both in the short term and in the
long term, to significantly increase bird
strike hazards to air navigation, and the
appropriateness, effectiveness and
affordability of proposed mitigation
measures or other conditions needed to
reduce bird strike hazards. In determining
compliance with this standard, the findings
shall address each of the following factors:
(1) The demonstrated overall
effectiveness and reliability of proposed
measures and conditions, in both the short
and long term and under similar
circumstances and conditions, to avoid a
significant increase in bird strike hazards to
air navigation. Experimental measures or
measures not based on accepted
technology and industry practices shall be
considered ineffective, inappropriate and of
unproven reliability.
(2) The economic, social and
environmental impacts of proposed
measures to the neighboring community
and the affected natural environment.
(3) The applicant's ability to pay
for necessary short and long-term mitigation
measures, including fallback measures that
may be required if initially proposed
mitigation measures prove ineffective, and
to assure the perpetual implementation of
those measures for as long as a potential
bird strike hazard persists. An applicant's
failure to demonstrate its financial ability to
assure the perpetual implementation of
necessary and appropriate measures shall
render those measures unreasonable and
impracticable for purposes of the
application.
(4) The applicant's ability to
accurately monitor the effectiveness of
mitigation over time.
(5) The potential impacts to
navigational safety and air travel if the
applicant cannot perform necessary
mitigation measures or maintain those
measures in perpetuity, or if those
measures prove to be ineffective at avoiding
a significant increase in bird strike hazards
to air navigation.
(6) The applicant's reclamation
plan.
(D) Mitigation Measures and Approval
Conditions. A decision approving an
application shall require, as conditions of
approval, all measures and conditions
deemed appropriate and necessary to
prevent in perpetuity a significant increase
in hazardous movements of birds feeding,
watering or roosting in areas across
runways and approach surfaces.
(1) Only customary measures
based on accepted technology and industry
practice may be considered and imposed as
approval conditions.
(2) Serious consideration shall be
given to all measures and conditions
recommended by the Department of
Aviation and the FAA and FAA's technical
representative. Generally, such measures
and conditions shall be attached to a
decision approving an application unless
findings are adopted, supported by
substantial evidence, demonstrating why
such measures and conditions are not
necessary to reduce bird hazard impacts
resulting from the water impoundment to an
insignificant level.
(3) A decision to approve shall
require from the applicant a performance
bond or other form of secure financial
support. Such bond or security shall be in
an amount sufficient to assure perpetual
implementation of appropriate and
necessary mitigation measures for as long
as a potential bird strike hazard persists.
(4) A decision to approve shall
require appropriate monitoring of the
effectiveness of mitigation over time. Upon
request, monitoring data and reports shall
be made available to the airport sponsor,
the Department of Aviation, and the FAA
and FAA's technical representative. The
decision shall allow for modifications to
approval conditions should existing
mitigation measures prove ineffective at
preventing a significant increase in
hazardous movements of birds feeding,
watering or roosting in areas across
runways and approach surfaces.
Modifications to approval conditions shall be
considered utilizing the review process
PAGE 13 OF 21 - EXHIBIT "B" TO ORDINANCE NO. 2001-001 (1/24/01)
applied to applications for conditional use
permits.
(E) Exemptions. The requirements of

18.80.078 FAA Notification (Form
7460-1)
1. Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR)
Part 77 requires that anyone proposing to
construct anything which may obstruct the
use of airspace by aircraft to provide a
notice to that effect to the FAA. Generally,
construction proposals in the vicinity of
airports may obstruct airspace. Notice to the
FAA is required for anything which may
affect landing areas, either existing or
planned, which are open to the public, or
are operated by one of the armed forces.
2. FAA Form 7460-1 "Notice of
Proposed Construction or Alteration" is the
notification form. It is to be submitted by the
applicant directly to the FAA. Forms are
available from the Oregon Department of
Aviation or the Northwest Regional Office of
the FAA.
3. FAA Form 7460-1 should be
submitted if the proposed construction or
alteration meets the following criteria:
(A) Anything over 200' AGL (above
ground level at the site).
(B) Proposals in the vicinity of an
airport, if the proposal would be higher than
a slope from the nearest point on a runway
and increasing its elevation at a ratio of:
Longest
Proximity to
Slope
Runway
Runway
> 3,200'
Within 20,000'
100 to 1
3,200' or less
Within 10,000'
50 to 1
For a Heliport
Within 5,000'
25 to 1
4. For identification purposes,
Deschutes County has established FAA
Notification Areas around each of the public
use airports within Deschutes County. The
boundaries of these areas are based on the
runway length. If a proposed construction
project is located in one of these areas, the
applicant shall determine if the height of the
proposed project will require FAA
notification as per 18.80.076(3) above. In
Deschutes County, each of the public -use
airports has a runway longer than 3,200
feet. Therefore, each FAA notification area
includes all land within 20,000 feet of each
airport's runway(s), and the slope to be
used is 100 to 1.
5. FAA notification is NOT required for
any of the following construction or
alteration:
(A) Any object that would be shielded
by existing structures of a permanent and
substantial character or by natural terrain or
topographic features of equal or greater
height, and would be located in the
congested area of a city, town, or settlement
where it is evident beyond all reasonable
doubt that the structure so shielded will
not adversely affect safety in air navigation.
(B) Any antenna structure of 20 feet or
less in height except one that would
increase the height of another antenna
structure.
(C) Any air navigation facility, airport
visual approach or landing aid, aircraft
arresting device, or meteorological device,
of a type approved by the Administrator,
or an appropriate military service on military
airports, the location and height of
which is fixed by Its functional purpose.
(D) Any construction or alteration for
which notice is required by any other FAA
regulation.

Notes for Table 1:
1. No structures shall be allowed within the Runway Protection Zone. Exceptions shall be made only for
structures accessory to airport operations whose location within the RPZ has been approved by the
Federal Aviation Administration.
2. In the RPZ, public airport uses are restricted to those uses and facilities that require location in the
RPZ.
3. Farming practices that minimize wildlife attractants are encouraged.
4. Roads and parking areas are permitted in the RPZ only upon demonstration that there are no
practicable alternatives. Lights, guardrails and related accessory structures are prohibited. Cost may
be considered in determining whether practicable alternatives exist.
5. In the RPZ, utilities, power lines and pipelines must be underground. In approach surfaces and in
airport direct and secondary impact areas, the proposed height of utilities shall be coordinated with
the airport sponsor and the Department of Aviation.
6. Public assembly facilities are prohibited within the RPZ.
7. Golf courses may be permitted only upon demonstration, supported by substantial evidence, that
management techniques will be utilized to reduce existing wildlife attractants and avoid the creation of
new wildlife attractants. Such techniques shall be required as conditions of approval. Structures are
not permitted within the RPZ. For purposes of this Chapter, tee markers, tee signs, pin cups and pins
are not considered to be structures.
8. Within 10,000 feet from the end of the primary surface of a non -precision instrument runway, and
within 50,000 feet from the end of the primary surface of a precision instrument runway.
9. Public assembly facilities may be allowed in an approach surface only if the potential danger to public
safety is minimal. In determining whether a proposed use is appropriate, consideration shall be given
to: proximity to the RPZ; density of people per acre; frequency of use; level of activity at the airport;
and other factors relevant to public safety. In general, high density uses should not be permitted
within airport approach surfaces, and non-residential structures should be located outside approach
surfaces unless no practicable alternatives exist.
10. Residential densities within approach surfaces should not exceed the following densities: (1) within
500 feet of the outer edge of the RPZ, 1 unit/acre; (2) within 500 to 1,500 feet of the outer edge of the
RPZ, 2 units/acre; (3) within 1,500 to 3,000 feet of the outer edge of the RPZ, 4 units/acre.
11. Mining operations involving the creation or expansion of water impoundments shall comply with the
requirements of this Chapter regulating water impoundments.
12. See Section 072 regulating water impoundments.
13. See requirements in Section 074.
14. Overnight accommodations, such as hotels, motels, hospitals and dormitories, are not permitted.
15. Due to land availability constraints, limited wastewater treatment plants within the Secondary
Impact Area are permitted on lands owned or managed by the Sunriver Resort or Sunriver utilities.
16. Organic composting facility is permitted.
17. Since Sunriver Resort owns and controls the Sunriver Airport, golf courses operated as part of the
Sunriver Resort, Crosswater and their affiliates are exempted.

*The designations contained in this table do not constitute a Federal determination that any use
of land covered by the program is acceptable or unacceptable under Federal, State, or local
law. The responsibility for determining the acceptable and permissible land uses and the
PAGE 18 OF 21 - EXHIBIT "B" TO ORDINANCE NO. 2001-001 (01/24/01)
relationship between specific properties and specific noise contours rests with the local
authorities. FAA determinations under Part 150 are not intended to substitute federally
determined land uses for those determined to be appropriate by local authorities in response to
locally determined needs and values in achieving noise compatible land uses.
Key to Table:
SLUCM = Standard Land Use Coding Manual.
Y (Yes) = Land Use and related structures compatible without restrictions.
N (No) = Land Use and related structures are not compatible and should be prohibited.
NLR = Noise Level Reduction (outdoor to indoor) to be achieved through incorporation of noise
attenuation into the design and construction of the structure.
25, 30, or 35 = Land use and related structures generally compatible; measures to achieve NLR
of 25, 30, or 35 dB must be incorporated into design and construction of structure.
Notes for Table 2:
(1) Where the community determines that residential or school uses must be allowed, measures
to achieve outdoor to indoor Noise Level Reduction (NLR) of at least 25 dB and 30 dB
should be incorporated into building codes and be considered in individual approvals.
Normal residential construction can be expected to provide a NLR of 20 dB, thus, the
reduction requirements are often stated as 5, 10 or 15 dB over standard construction and
normally assume mechanical ventilation and closed windows year round. However, the use
of NLR criteria will not eliminate outdoor noise problems.
(2) Measures to achieve NLR 25 dB must be incorporated into the design and construction of
portions of these buildings where the public is received, office areas, noise sensitive areas
or where the normal noise level is low.
(3) Measures to achieve NLR of 30 dB must be incorporated into the design and construction of
portions of these buildings where the public is received, office areas, noise sensitive areas
or where the normal noise level is low.
(4) Measures to achieve NLR 35 dB must be incorporated into the design and construction of
portions of these buildings where the public is received, office areas, noise sensitive areas
or where the normal level is low.
(5) Land use compatible provided special sound reinforcement systems are installed.
(6) Residential buildings require an NLR of 25.
(7) Residential buildings require an NLR of 30.
(8) Residential buildings not permitted.
