 Objective
 An Explanation and Understanding of the Snow and Ice Control Plan


 BTV Airport averages between 90K and 100K annual aircraft operations.
 As per AC 5220-20, we must be able to clear 1 inch of falling snow weighing up to 25 lbs /ft³ (cubed).
 For reference, wet snow is around 21 lbs /ft³ from priority 1 areas within a half hour.

 Snow Removal
 Snow and Ice Control Plan: Snow Removal Priorities (as per our FAA Approved SICP)



 • Standard snow removal procedure for Runway 15/33 are to plow/sweep full length and width with both
 multi-function vehicles continuously.
 • When/if the plow line gets too heavy for the multi-functions, rollover plows are deployed to cast the
 snow beyond the edge lights or to windrow the snow then deploy high speed rotary blowers to
 IMMEDIATELY remove the windrow.
 • If a full width cannot be maintained, the center 100 feet will be the focus to allow for airline operation
 continuity.
 • The maximum allowable snowbank heights are contained in the Airport Certification Manual and will be
 covered later in this powerpoint.

 Objective
 An Explanation and Understanding of the Snow and Ice Control Plan:
 Field Condition Assessment and Reporting
 • A RCAM Assessment System is used to determine Runway Condition Codes.
 • Airport Operations is responsible for assessments of runways, taxiways and aprons during winter
 operations. Surface conditions are monitored on a regular continual basis before, during and after snow
 and ice removal operations.
 • To assist in conducting assessments, BTV utilizes:
 • In-pavement sensors to monitor existing conditions and trends,
 • Use vehicles to physically monitor and ‘feel’ the surface conditions
 • PIREPS, primarily for braking action reports via ATC
 • Bowmonk AFM2 Airfield Friction Meter MkII for mu values
 • Snow equipment operator reports

To: Airport Commission

From: Larry Lackey, Director of Planning, Engineering and Environmental Compliance

Date: December 3, 2025

Subject: Airport Commission Construction Update

 1. Annual Parking Garage Maintenance ($.35M). The replacement of the expansion joints and joint seal
 repair in the vicinity of the north and south garage areas has started and is ongoing. This will be
 completed by July. Completed.

 2. Environmental Assessment (est. $.25M). The purpose of this project is to evaluate environmental
 impacts related to the mitigation of obstructions with in the aircraft approach surfaces to the
 runways. This is in follow up to the recently completed Master Plan, which includes obstruction
 identification and environmental review. Completed, working on close out documents.

 3. South Terminal Replacement Project ($35M). The purpose of this project is for overall terminal
 efficiencies and a better passenger experience. Due to increased aircraft seating existing passenger
 hold areas are overcrowded during peak times as identified in the recent Master Plan Update.
 Recently the opportunity had risen through the Airport Terminal Improvement Program from the
 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. We have submitted our request for full build out of this project,
 including: Demolition of the existing South Concourse; new Terminal improvements (approximately
 45,000 SF of new gross floor area on 2 levels); five (5) new aircraft gates; up to four (4) new passenger
 boarding bridges (PBB), new passenger circulation and hold rooms; future concessions space; and
 apron construction within demolished South Concourse footprint. The South Terminal Replacement
 Project will be approximately 160' farther from Taxiway A as the existing South Concourse. We were
 not selected this past year and have reapplied for FFY23 design only. We did receive notice from the
 program that we will be awarded the a design only grant for this project. We have finalized discussions
 with the FAA to how best move this project forward in the future, as the timing to design this needs to
 be pushed back due to FAA scheduling requirement and having the funding to complete the
 construction of this project. We have moved forward with schematics and preliminary cost estimates
 for existing potential funding source applications.

 4. Cargo Apron Construction Project ($4.7M). The purpose of this project is to provide additional space
 for other potential cargo carry operations. Have submitted 7460-1 (Air Space Review) to FAA for this
 project. The scoping of the he project, design only has been completed with the FAA. The IFE process
 for completion before a FAA Grant Application in April has been completed. Grant Application was




 Page 83 of 108
December 3, 2025 Airport Commission Construction Update Page 2 of 6


 submitted on April 3, 2023. Grant has been issued, moving to finalize contract. The contract has been
 issued to Hoyle, Tanner and Associates with the design to start. It has been determined that this
 project will require additional FAA technical operations review prior to proceeding. The FAA updated
 review has been issued as favorable, and the project design is moving forward. We plan on bidding
 this project later this year. Project design is near completion. Working on permit applications. We will
 apply for a grant in April of 2026 for construction.

 5. SRE Building Design ($1.2M). The purpose of this project is to replace the existing out dated facilities,
 which does not meet the storage needs of the required equipment to maintain the airfield. A contract
 for study is being completed with programing and scoping moving forward. The scoping session with
 the FAA has been completed. The final scope is complete with the IFE process was completed. The
 Grant Application was submitted to the FAA. Contract has been signed with Passero Associates to
 design and bid this project. Site investigations were completed in November. The site plan is
 developed with the building design at 30%. We have had page turn of the draft plans. Applications for
 permits are being moved forward. A pre –Application meeting was held with South Burlington
 Planning and Development Staff in preparation for an upcoming DRB hearing. Permit Applications are
 being prepared. We presented to the South Burlington DRB on June 3rd. The hearing was not closed.
 There were items that needed follow up. We have followed up on these items and are scheduled back
 with the DRB on July 1, 2025. The SB DRB process has been completed. We have filed for all other
 required permits. We plan on advertising for bids for construction of this project in the next 1-2
 weeks.

 6. Burlington Tech Center (BTC) ($12M). The purpose of this project is to support the design efforts for
 an improved facility at the airport for the regional educational needs. The Burlington School district
 has been given an award for $10M in which they are in the process of applying for. We continue to
 work with the school on this project. Permit applications were submitted on March 25th to the
 regulatory bodies for this project. The SB DRB issued there positive decision with follow submittal
 needed as agreed during the hearing. DEW was the selected contractor. Construction started
 December 4th. The planned completion was August 2025. This project is substantially completed with
 students starting on October 28, 2025.

 7. FAA CIP for FY26 and next 5 years. We met with the FAA Airports Division on September 17th. Items
 discussed for FFY26, cargo apron construction, SRE building construction, obstruction removal
 easements, final application to complete project NeXT, RSIP Phase 6 considering receipt of the $7.3M
 grant from OLDCC, centralized deicing and the following 5 years. We are working on updated CIP to
 reflect the meeting discussions and commitments.

 8. BETA – Development
 Communication and coordination with Beta on the first phase of the Electric Aircraft Assemble Facility
 and Valley West Hangar for all aspects of permitting, environmental, engineering, utilities and
 attendance at public hearing and construction meetings. The first Phase is complete. We are
 coordinating with Beta on the child care center and Hangar.

 9. South Apron and TW G Ext. Development ($6.6). The purpose of this project is to provide much
 needed additional general aviation apron area on the airfield. Completed, working on closeout
 documents.

 10. Glycol System Upgrade (est. $3.5M). The purpose of this project is to improve the glycol system (De-
 icing). We have had additional follow up discussions with the FAA and it appears this is eligible for
 funding and is being added back into our FAA CIP. We have received and reviewed the site evaluation
 and process review scope. We brought this for Airport Commission approval last month subsequently,
 it was approved by City Council. Study is moving forward. We visited the Syracuse Airport to evaluate
 and understand the technology they were using to compare to our Portland Jetport visit. The Draft
 study has been issued and is under review by the airport team. A review session with Stantec was
 completed. We had a joint meeting last week with our consultant and our FBO Heritage Flight to get
 their input. The final report is completed. A 7460 – 1 (Siting review) has been submitted for the siting
 of the first site location for review. We are working on our CIP with the FAA, to see how we fund this.
 Then we can start scoping the project with the FAA.

 11. North Terminal Improvement Project ($2.2M). The purpose of this project is for overall terminal
 efficiencies and a better passenger experience due to the completion of the TIP the north terminal will
 be upgraded to provide more capacity for passengers and concessions. This includes the removal of
 the existing north TSA station along with the removal of the existing escalators. This project is under
 design and funding is anticipated from the recent approval of the Infrastructure Law. Received Bids
 with the selected bidder being Engelberth Construction, Inc. Preparing and submitting Grant
 Application. This will become a FFY23 Project. We have received the Grant from the FAA. Construction
 is nearing completion, and should be complete by September 15th. There was a delay related to the
 glass for the new restaurant area. Construction is complete with final inspection with the FAA
 completed on 10/30/23. Project closeout in process. We have applied for an additional grant to add
 additional egress lanes in both the North and South Terminal locations. A grant application was
 submitted April 26th to the FAA. Received BOF approval to accept the Grant on June 17, 2024, City
 Council to vote on June 25, 2024. Grant has been issued for the two new egress lanes. A review of the
 issued funding is being reviewed by the airport on how much money can actually be used from the
 grant for this project. This determination is close to being resolved. Due to FAA rules this grant is being
 sent back because it does not support the full extent of this project.

 12. PROJECT NEXT: North Terminal Replacement Project and New PBB’s ($63M). The purpose of this
 project is for overall terminal efficiencies and a better passenger experience. Due to increased aircraft
 seating existing passenger hold areas are overcrowded during peak times as identified in the recent
 Master Plan Update. Recently the opportunity had risen from Senator Leahy’s office through
 Congressional Directed Spending. We have submitted our request for full build out of this project
 Phase III Terminal Improvement Project, including: Demolition of the existing North Concourse; new
 Terminal Improvement (approximately 25,000 SF of new gross floor area on 2 levels); five (5) new
 aircraft gates; six (6) new passenger boarding bridges (PBB), new passenger circulation and hold
 rooms; future concessions space; and apron construction within demolished North Concourse

 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS UPLOADED TO WWW.BTVSOUND.COM

  BACKGROUND:

  Residential Sound Insulation Programs:
  The purpose of the project is to convert a sample of incompatible residential units to a compatible land
  use by installing an acoustical treatment package which will provide relief from aircraft noise by
  upgrading interior living areas. Upgrades may include replacement of windows and doors with
  acoustically rated products and installation or upgrade of ventilation systems. The sound insulation
  treatments are designed to reduce the interior noise levels to below 45 DNL and provide a minimum
  noise level reduction of 5dB.

  PHASES OF THE RESIDENTIAL SOUND INSULATION PROGRAM (RSIP)

 1. Sound Insulation Pilot Project (Phase 1) ($1.5M). This Program includes: Program formulation,
 Home eligibility determination, project schedule for this Phase 1 portion included 9 properties,
 and construction improvements are substantially complete. The close out is ongoing with the
 contractor.

 2. Residential Sound Insulation Project - Phase 2 ($2.20M) The purpose of the project was to
 convert incompatible residential units to a compatible land use by installing an acoustical
 treatment package which will provide relief from aircraft noise by upgrading interior living areas
 as defined in the Phase 1 project and the Noise Compatibility Program. The Airport continued
 implementation of its Residential Sound Insulation Program (RSIP). This grant included:
 community outreach, historic review, design and bidding of 52 homes, noise reduction of 6




 Page 89 of 108
 Page 2 of 6


 homes which construction improvements were substantially completed and close out is
 ongoing with the contractor. Properties were located within the 70+ DNL FAA accepted 2023
 noise contours. The installation of noise reduction materials for the 5 properties was
 completed. Materials were purchased for the 6th property however the homeowner left the
 area. It will be completed with the next phase of homes. The close out is ongoing with the
 contractor.

3. Residential Sound Insulation Project - Phase 3 ($6.2M). The Airport is continued
 implementation of its Residential Sound Insulation Program (RSIP) as described in more detail
 above. This grant was issued and includes: the construction improvements of the 52 Homes
 designed and bid in Phase 2, in addition it provides for community outreach, historic review,
 design and bidding of the next approximately 50 homes for improvements. The schedule for
 installing the noise insulating improvements for the 52 homes started in 2024. The Construction
 Improvements has started on this phase of homes and will continue through September 2025.
 See status below as of 20251112:

4. Residential Sound Insulation Project - Phase 4 ($3.9M EST.). The Airport is proposing to
 continue implementation of its Residential Sound Insulation Program (RSIP) as described in
 more detail above. We are currently reviewing the status of the programing and will be able
 to detail this in our next month’s airport commission meeting. The initial grant for 16 of the 50
 homes for construction improvements was submitted grant was received from the FAA. Also in
 the grant was the funding for the next 50 homes. As discussed we are completing the required
 new acoustical testing for the balance of the 50 homes so we can do a follow grant application
 on those homes. (See update above) The Buy American process moving forward but awaiting
 grant for the 16 homes. We received the grant for this phase however; the amount ($)’s was
 slightly less than what the application was. Based on instructions from the FAA we will leave the
 scope intact for this project and just amend the grant during closure. The Contact with Strong
