19.15 Protection of microwave links

       (1) Equipment microwave links associated with CNS within an aerodrome boundary must have clear line of sight to any object, structure or development which may then need to be referred for assessment, in order to transmit aviation information from remote stations back to ATC.

       (2) The aerodrome operator must refer any proposed development to the microwave link system to the microwave service and facility provider for assessment if the development would be within 50 m of the line of sight mentioned in subsection (1).

       (3) If the aerodrome operator does not know the location of microwave links, the operator must contact the system authority for information and guidance as to locations.

19.16 Siting requirements for CNS facilities

Note  CASA recommends that for new and existing facilities, this section should be considered with the engineering, technical and instruction manuals associated with the required function and protection of the CNS facility.

       (1) Subject to section 7.02, this section applies only in relation to the siting of CNS facilities within an aerodrome boundary.

       (2) Unless required for air navigation or aircraft safety, equipment or an installation that could endanger an aircraft in the air or on the ground must not be located:

(a) on a runway strip; or

(b) in a runway end safety area; or

(c) on a taxiway strip; or

(d) within the distance specified in Row 2 in Table 6.53 (1)-2 as applicable for the relevant taxiway code letter; or

(e) in a clearway.

       (3) Equipment or an installation required for air navigation or for aircraft safety, which is located on any of the following, must be frangible and mounted as low as possible to the surrounding ground level:

(a) that portion of a runway strip within:

 (i) where the code number is 3 or 4 — 75 m of the runway centreline; or

 (ii) where the code number is 1 or 2 — 45 m of the runway centreline;

(b) a runway end safety area, a taxiway strip, or within the distances specified in Table 6.53 (1)-2 as applicable for the relevant taxiway code letter;

(c) a clearway if it would otherwise endanger an aircraft in the air.

Note   CASA recommends that any equipment or
