All:

 

            We have an Airport CIP meeting on the calendar for 10:00am
Tuesday 10/6.  Given that we just met Wednesday, I think this meeting
would be superfluous.  In addition, it conflicts with the FAA
Partnership Conference being held in downtown Dallas.  The next
scheduled CIP meeting is Tuesday 11/3 (at the usual 10:00am time).  The
runway borings will have been completed by then, as well as all of the
surveying.  I don't see a need to have another meeting before the next
scheduled meeting on 11/3, but if anyone has a different view please
share it.

            In the interim, we need to focus on collecting whatever
information is available on our runway lighting systems.  Dave has been
doing some troubleshooting and evaluation work, and has found that some
places where we thought the cables were in conduit are in fact
direct-buried.  The light cans we have in some areas will also need to
be replaced ... it is possible that the entire runway edge lighting
system will need to be removed and replaced.  If Public Works has any
as-built drawings or even plans for any airfield lighting (I believe the
runway edge lights were done circa 1992) it would be really helpful if
we could locate those and provide copies to Garver.  Dave will continue
and hopefully complete his survey of the runway lighting circuits by
11/3, so we should have a good idea of what is actually out there in
time for the meeting.

 

Best Regards,

 

Joel
