Weather Observation Service

Standards

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA) DOT.

ACTION: Notice of policy statement.

SUMMARY: The American people have

demanded a smaller, more efficient

government; toward that end, the

resources of the National Airspace

System must be streamlined and service

provided in a safe yet economical way.

In November 1994, senior management

officials from the Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA) and the National

Weather Service (NWS) met with

executives from fourteen national

aviation associations concerning surface

aviation observation services. They

reached an agreement that the

government would work with industry

to define various support levels for

surface observations.

In addition, in March 1995, and in

accordance with the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB) policy,

the FAA began the process to assume

responsibility for aviation surface

weather observations beginning in FY

1996. As the NWS automates field

offices and reallocates their personnel

under this plan, the FAA will undertake

accountability for observations at many

NWS ASOS sites. The NWS has begun

transitioning these ASOS sites to the

FAA as the ASOSs are commissioned

and has solicited public comment (61

FR 19595; May 2, 1996). The FAA also

expanded by more than two hundred,

the sites to receive ASOSs, thus

enhancing safety at sites without

weather observations. All of these

activities prompted the FAA to take

aggressive action in addressing surface

aviation observation requirements and

do it within modest resource gains.

As a result, a government/industry

team has worked for a year and a half

to comprehensively reassess the

requirements for surface observations at

the nation’s airports. That work has

resulted in agreement on a set of service

standards as well as the FAA and NWS

Automated Surface Observing System

(ASOS) sites to which the standards will

apply. This notice outlines the four

kinds of service, explains the method

used to determine which airports

receive which type of service, and

contains a listing of the airports and the

service categories in which they fall.

The FAA, NWS and Industry

representatives believe the service

standards approach supports the best

allocation of scarce resources.

Industry Relations Branch, 400 7th St

SW, Plaza 200, Washington, DC 20590;

telephone (202) 336–4474.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The term

Service Standards refers to four levels of

detail in the weather observation at sites

where there is a commissioned ASOS.

The first category, known as Service

Level D, is completely automated

service, at which the ASOS observation

will constitute the entire observation,

i.e., no additional weather information

is added by a human weather observer.

A partial list of the airports that fit in

this category are provided at the end of

this Notice. Some of these airports

currently have contract weather

observers providing the service. Many

other sites (60–80) will be expanded to

include automated systems; they are

currently under review. Information on

specific additional sites is available

upon request.

The second category, toweraugmented service, also known as

Service Level C, encompasses

approximately two hundred and fifty

airports. At this level, a human observer

adds additional information to the

automated observation. Augmentation

includes the following parameters:

thunderstorms, tornadoes, hail, virga,

volcanic ash, and tower visibility. In

addition, in the event of an ASOS

malfunction or the ASOS reporting

unrepresentative data, the human

observer may insert the correct value or

more representative information into the

observation. This is referred to as

backup.

Backup consists of inserting the

following parameters where available:

wind, visibility, precipitation/

obstruction to vision type, cloud height,

sky cover, temperature, dewpoint and

altimeter setting. This level of service

would be provided at all towered

airports during hours of operation.

During hours that the tower is closed,

the ASOS will provide observations

without backup or augmentation. These

airports are listed as tower-agumented

(Service Level C) airports at the end of

this notice. Although this category is

listed as tower-agumented, the service

may be provided by Flight Service

Stations at selected sites.

At 135 airports, adding more detail to

the weather observation was considered

optimum. These airports were divided

into two categories, major aviation hubs

and high traffic volume airports with

average or worse weather, referred to as

Service Level A airports; and the

remaining group of airports that are

smaller hubs or special airports in other

ways, that have worse than average bad

weather operations for thunderstorms

and/or freezing/frozen precipitation,

and/or that are remote airports, referred

to as Service Level B airports.

Service Level B airports will receive

augmentation and backup (C-level

service) plus long-line Runway Visual

Range (RVR), which may be an

instantaneous readout. If observed, the

following elements will be added to the

observation: freezing drizzle versus

freezing rain, ice pellets, snow depth

and snow increasing rapidly remarks,

thunderstorm/lightning location

remarks and observed significant

weather not at the station remarks. At

selected airports in this category, during
32888 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 123 / Tuesday, June 25, 1996 / Notices

hours of low traffic volume, the service

may revert to Service Level C, toweraugmented service, or Service Level D,

automated service.

Service Level A airports will receive,

in addition to the services described

above, 10 minute long-line RVR or

additional visibility increments of 1⁄8/, 1⁄16 and 0. If observed, the following

elements will be added to the

observation: sector visibility, variable

sky condition, cloud layers above

12,000 feet and cloud types, widespread

dust, sand and other obscurations and

volcanic eruptions.

At selected sites, Flight Service

Stations may do the support at Level A,

B, or C airports. In lieu of a contract of

NWS observer at a Level A, B or C

airport, a non-government entity, such

as a Fixed Base Operator or commercial

aviation operator may agree to provide

augmentation or backup to the ASOS

observation, at no cost to the

government. On a case-by-case basis,

arrangements can be made to install an

operator interface device, provide

training materials, and determine a

payment schedule for any recurring

costs associated with the activity.

More detailed information on Service

Standard procedures, including

augmentation and backup, is contained

in FAA Order 7900.5A. This document

is available upon request.

Implementation Schedule

The date for implementation of

Service Standards for each airport will

be based upon a number of factors,

including NWS transition dates, ASOS

commissioning dates and the FAA

budget. Sufficient budget for

implementing Service Levels has been

requested for FY 97. However, FAA

budget resources are insufficient in FY

96 to fully fund observations at the A

and B Service Levels at all sites

designated for those Service Standards.

For Level 5 towered sites, the FAA has

already allocated funds for Service

Level A support to begin immediately

upon commissioning of ASOS; those

sites are identified by an asterisk in the

list at this end of this Notice.

The implementation date will be

included in a Notice to Airmen and/or

in the Airport/Facility Directory when

transition is imminent. Information on

the schedule for specific sites is

available on request.

Ranking Process

The criteria used to rank the airports

were based on (1) occurrence of

significant weather weighted by traffic

counts; (2) distance to the nearest

suitable alternate airport; and (3) critical

airport characteristics. These criteria

produced a score for each airport which

determined their level of service.

Seventy-eight ASOS sites have the

greatest augmentation needs and will

receive expanded service (Level A);

fifty-seven to receive enhanced service

(Level B); two hundred and fifty to

receive tower augmentation (Level C);

and another nearly four hundred to

receive automated service (Level D). The

composite scores assigned were solely

based on weighted objective criteria

designed to capture critical airport

characteristics as follows.

Bad Weather Operations Score

This score is calculated by (1) adding

the percentage of times that the airport

is impacted by thunderstorms, freezing

and/or frozen precipitation (including

freezing rain, freezing drizzle, snow,

snow pellets, snow squalls, snow

showers, ice pellets, ice pellet showers,

ice crystals), and visibility less than or

equal to .5 mile and multiplying that

percentage sum times total operations at

that airport; (2) multiplying the

percentage of time the airport

experiences visibility less than or equal

to 3 miles times the number of all

operations and then multiplying that

figure by .5; (3) summing the figures

from steps 1–2 above; and (4) setting the

resultant figures to a linear scale ranging

from 0 to 18. The total score range was

set at 0 to 18 to coincide with the

combined total score range of the airport

characteristics and the alternate airport

criteria as described in the next two

paragraphs. The traffic count data

utilized is FY 1994.

For sites that did not have any

weather information available, an

alternate method was devised to

compute weather scores. Each airport

which had a composite score of 2 or

more, even without weather data, was

assigned weather information (surrogate

weather) from the nearest airport with

similar weather. This step was omitted

for airports with a non-weather

composite score of less than 2 because

adding even a high weather score to

such sites would not cause them to need

expanded service. A list of these

airports and the surrogate weather

utilized for them is available upon

request.

Score for Distance to Nearest Suitable

Alternate Airport

This score gives credit for airports for

which the nearest suitable alternate is a

greater distance away. Where available,

these alternates were selected from an

Air Transport Association-provided list

of actual alternates utilized for certain

airports. Otherwise, an automated

approach was used to determine these

alternates based on the following

requirements

• The alternate site must have some

observation capabilities. It must be an

FAA or NWS ASOS site; an FAA or

NWS contract weather observer

observation site; a Federal or NonFederal Automated Weather Observing

Site (AWOS) site; or a Supplementary

Aviation Weather Reporting Site

(SAWRS) station.

• If the destination airport has a

Terminal Airdrome Forecast (TAF)

issued, the alternate site must have a

TAF issued also.

• If the destination airport is a Part

139 airport, the alternate site must be a

Part 139 airport also.

The scoring was done using Table 1.

Ranking

The scores from the three areas

described above were then added

together and each airport was assigned

a composite score and ranked

accordingly. Information on the process

of determining the exact boundaries

between service levels, as well as scores

for individual airports, are available

upon request.

This following list includes the

service level categories and the airports

that fall into each category. The airports

in each service level category are listed

by state and the city where the airport

is located. The airport’s three letter

location identifier is also included. For

manufacturer as complying with the

safety standards, and (2) it is capable of

being readily altered to conform to the

standards.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

Background

Under 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A)

(formerly section 108(c)(3)(A)(i)(I) of the

National Traffic and Motor Vehicle

Safety Act (the act)), a motor vehicle

that was not originally manufactured to

conform to all applicable Federal motor

vehicle safety standards shall be refused

admission into the United States unless

NHTSA has decided that the motor

vehicle is substantially similar to a

motor vehicle originally manufactured

for importation into and sale in the

United States, certified under 49 U.S.C.

30115 (formerly section 114 of the act),

and of the same model year as the

model of the motor vehicle to be

compared, and is capable of being

readily altered to conform to all

applicable Federal motor vehicle safety

standards.

Petitions for eligibility decisions may

be submitted by either manufacturers or

importers who have registered with

NHTSA pursuant to 49 CFR Part 592. As

specified in 49 CFR 593.7, NHTSA

publishes notice in the Federal Register

of each petition that it receives, and

affords interested persons an

opportunity to comment on the petition.

At the close of the comment period,

NHTSA decides, on the basis of the

petition and any comments that it has

received, whether the vehicle is eligible

for importation. The agency then

publishes this decision in the Federal

Register.
