Re Halifax Northampton Regional Airport Nationwide Permit 25 (Section 401 Water Quality Certification)
Mr McMillan
On behalf of the Halifax Northampton Regional Airport THE LPA GROUP INCORPORATED (LPA) has prepared an
application for Section 404 Nationwide Permmt 25 for the construction of a MALSR system north of the existing Runway 20
MALSR is an acronym for a Medium Intensity Approach Lighting System with Runway Alignment Indicator Lights
The MALSR installation would consist of 13 lighting structures placed at 200 foot intervals to the north of Runway 20 Two of
the lighting structures would be placed in the wetland associated with Quankey Creek These structures would consist of low
impact resistant towers on a concrete pad surrounded by a 7 foot by 8 foot fiberglass deck on four 10 inch diameter pilings to
provide access to the perimeter of the tower for maintenance purposes The pad would consist of a concrete cap on a 3 foot
diameter concrete pile The concrete piles for the pads would be cast in place by drilling the appropriate shaft and casting with
live concrete In order to access the pads from upland adjacent to the wetland a permanent fiberglass boardwalk would be
required at each tower location In addition tree removal would occur within the wetlands in the project area The tree removal
would be accomplished without grubbing stumps within wetland areas
Impacts to jurisdictional wetlands resulting from the drilled shafts total approximately 0 000324 acre (14 14 square feet) On
behalf of the Halifax Northampton Regional Airport LPA is requesting approval of this impact under Section 401 Water Quality
Certification associated with the Section 404 Nationwide Permit 25
Please find attached a check in the amount of $240 00 and five (5) copies of the following Pre Construction Notification Form a

Explain the purpose of the proposed project
The purpose of the proposed project is to construct a Medium Approach Lighting System with Runway Indicator Lights
(MALSR) system at the Halifax Northampton Regional Airport that will increase aircraft safety to meet current FAA
precision runway approach guidelines The North Carolina Department of Transportation Division of Aviation (NCDOA)
identifies in the 2004 Airport Layout Plan that the ultimate Runway would require a precision approach for the design
aircraft The existing Runway 20 navigational instrumentation needs to be upgraded to a MALSR system to have the
Airport meet FAA Category I Precision Approach guidelines as described in AC 150/5300 13 CHG 6 (page 64) The
installation of the MALSR system will increase the runway approach visibility by 0 5 mile and increase visibility for pilots
attempting to land in inclement weather which would increase the safety of aircraft descending to Runway 20
3e
Describe the overall project in detail including the type of equipment to be used
The proposed project consists of the installation of a MALSR system of the north end of the existing Runway 20 The
Federal Aviation Administration describes a MALSR as the following
Approach Light Systems (ALS) provide the basic means to transition from instrument flight to visual flight for landing
Operational requirements dictate the sophistication and configuration of the approach light system for a particular runway
The MALSR is a medium approach intensity lighting system (ALS) installed in airport runway approach zones along the
extended centerline of the runway The MALSR consisting of a combination of threshold lamps steady burning light bars
and flashers provides visual information to pilots on runway alignment height perception role guidance and horizontal
references for Category I Precision Approaches
The MALSR installation would consist of 13 lighting structures placed at 200 foot intervals to the north of Runway 20
(refer to Figure 2) Two of the lighting structures would be placed in the wetland associated with Quankey Creek These
structures would consist of low impact resistant towers on a concrete pad surrounded by a 7 foot by 8 foot fiberglass deck
on four 10 inch diameter pilings to provide access to the perimeter of the tower for maintenance purposes The pad
would consist of a concrete cap on a 3 foot diameter concrete pile The concrete piles for the pads would be cast in
place by drilling the appropriate shaft and casting with live concrete In order to access the pads from upland adjacent to
the wetland a permanent fiberglass boardwalk would be required at each tower location (plan and profile of the
boardwalks is shown on Figures 4 6 and 7) The boardwalk at Sta 167 +00 would consist of six eight foot spans (48 feet
long) with seven pairs of 10 inch diameter timber piles (driven) and at its highest point would be approximately 10 feet
above the existing ground elevation The boardwalk at Sta 169 +00 would consist of seven eight foot spans (56 feet
long) with eight pairs of 10 inch diameter piles and at its highest point would be approximately 15 feet above the existing
ground elevation
The construction area for boardwalks /pads would be accessed from upland abutting the southern and northern wetland
boundary Temporary timber mats and a floating barge would be used to access the construction area without
permanently impacting wetlands The barge used for this particular project would consist of a marsh mat which is
specially designed for use in shallow waters In waters too shallow for the barge timber matting would be utilized
The proposed project would include cutting of trees to dust above ground level within the project area (refer to Figure 3)
No grubbing or disturbance of the tree roots would occur

D Impact Justification and Mitigation
1 Avoidance and Minimization
1a Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project
During the design of the proposed project elements that could potentially minimize impacts were implemented The use of the
boardwalks for permanent access precluded the need to add fill to construct a causeway and the boardwalks were designed
to be perpendicular to the pad and the uplands which allowed for the shortest possibly length The pads for the lighting
towers where designed to the minimum foot print possible which minimized impacts For the tree removal portion of the
project wetland impacts were minimized by cutting trees above ground level and eliminating grubbing in wetland areas
1 b Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques
Impacts to wetlands and streams in close proximity to the construction site will be minimized through the implementation of
standard erosion control and siltation control measures as specified in FAA AC 150/5370 10 entitled Standards for Specifying
Construction of Airports and specifically Item P 156 Temporary Air and Water Pollution Sod Erosion and Siltation Control
as well as compliance with state and local erosion control requirements Temporary erosion control measures shall include
but not be limited to the use of temporary berms dikes dams silt fences drainage ditches silt basins diversion ditches
slope drains structures vegetation mulches mats netting gravel rip rap or any other methods that are necessary
Temporary timber mats and a floating barge would be used to access the construction area without permanently impacting
wetlands The barge used for this particular project would consist of a marsh mat which is specially designed for use in
shallow waters In waters too shallow for the barge timber matting would be utilized
