WET SNOW ON TOP OF ICE

Note   This RWYCC assignment table is in PANS-Aerodromes and includes SNOW and ICE conditions.

 Other contaminants — reporting

       (12) When aeroplane operations are scheduled, or notified in advance to the aerodrome operator by the aeroplane operator, or are known to be in progress at the aerodrome, the aerodrome operator must report an operational runway that has other contaminants, as soon as possible in an RCR.

       (13) The RCR must include:

(a) the relevant runway number; and

(b) subject to paragraph (c), for each identified one-third length of the runway, the applicable RWYCC and runway surface description in accordance with Table 12.04A (11); and

(c) if 25% or less, of a one-third length of the runway has other contaminants on it — a RWYCC of 5 (WET) for the one-third length; and

(d) if the depth of any other contaminants on the runway is reasonably ascertainable — a report of the depth of the contaminants.

       (14) The RCR must be made to:

(a) the NOTAM Office and ATC (if available); and

(b) if the ATC is not available — pilots, but only where the aerodrome operator has available UNICOM or CA/GRS.

CHAPTER 12

Division 2 Aerodrome technical inspection programs

12.05 Content of aerodrome technical inspection programs

       (1) Section 12.09 sets out the elements which comprise an aerodrome technical inspection.

       (2) Subject to sections 12.06 and 12.07, an aerodrome technical inspection must comply with section 12.09.

12.06 Inspections at higher volume movement aerodromes

       (1) For an aerodrome that, in the course of a financial year, has:

(a) 50 000 or more air transport passenger movements; or

(b) 100 000 or more aircraft movements;

        a technical inspection program must be established and implemented for the aerodrome.

    (2) For subsection (1), all elements of the first aerodrome technical inspection must be implemented not later than 12 months after:

(a) for paragraph (1) (a) — the date of publication, by the Department, of the air transport passenger movement numbers indicating that, for the first time under this MOS, there have been 50 000 or more air transport passenger movements for the aerodrome for the financial year; or

(b) for paragraph (1) (b) — the date the aerodrome operator becomes aware of information indicating that, for the first time under this MOS, there have been 100 000 or more aircraft movements at the aerodrome in the course of the financial year.

       (3) Each element of the second and subsequent technical inspections must be implemented not later than 12 months after the element was last implemented in a technical inspection.

       (4) If paragraph (2) (a) or (2) (b):

(a) applied to an aerodrome operator (including by operation of this subsection); and
