About this file
This document is a Construction Safety and Phasing Plan (CSPP) for the McDermitt State Airport Runway and Taxiway Surface Seal Project, prepared by the Oregon Department of Aviation in collaboration with Century West Engineering. The project involves crack sealing, fog sealing (surface seal), and pavement marking for Runway 16-34 and the North, Middle, and South Taxiways. Construction is anticipated to begin in summer 2025 with a 7-day contract duration, divided into three sequential phases: crack repair (4 days), surface seal (2 days), and pavement marking (1 day). Each phase requires a runway closure, with the runway electrical equipment (REILs and MILs) being disabled during the work.
The project is funded through AIP No. 3-41-0071-007-2024 and will be completed at the McDermitt State Airport located in McDermitt, Oregon. The Construction Safety and Phasing Plan provides detailed safety protocols, including restricting construction vehicle and personnel movement, ensuring air operations area protection, managing wildlife and foreign object debris, and coordinating with airport management. The contractor will be responsible for maintaining safety, providing appropriate barricades and markings, and following strict guidelines to minimize disruption to airport operations. The plan emphasizes the importance of coordination, inspections, and immediate response to any safety concerns during the construction period.

Lights must be operated between sunset and sunrise and during periods of low visibility whenever the airport is open for operations. Mounted barricade lights may be operated by photocell or battery power, but the contractor must maintain the aforementioned luminance requirements while the airport is open for operations.
iii. No supplement barricades with signs are needed for the proposed project.
iv. Runway Closure Markers (Crosses). The contractor shall provide, place, and maintain, as required during runway closures crosses. The contractor shall place closing “X” over runway numerals except when work is on or crosses the numerals. Closing “X” may then be temporarily placed just off the numerals until this portion of the work is completed.. Each cross to be provided by the contractor shall be made of yellow truck tarp nylon weighing 18 ounces per square yard. The edges shall be hemmed, corners reinforced, and grommets provided every 3 feet along the edge. Material for each set of crosses shall be sized as follows: 4 pieces (10’ x 60’) as shown in the plans. The crosses shall be secured with weighted materials less than 3 inches in height. Sandbags or equivalents that may produce FOD are not allowed.
v. Air Operations Area – General. Barricades are not permitted in any active safety area or on the runway side of a runway hold line.
vi. Air Operations Area – Runway/Taxiway Intersections. Use highly reflective barricades with lights to close taxiways leading to closed runways. Even for closures of relatively short duration, close all taxiway/runway intersections with barricades.
vii. Air Operations Area – Other. Not applicable to this project.
400997.130.01 | February 2025 | Page 17
viii. Maintenance. In accordance with specification Section 01300, the contractor is required to have a person on call 24 hours a day for emergency maintenance of airport hazard lighting and barricades. The contractor must file the contact person’s information with the airport operator.
ix. Runway lighting, taxiway lighting, or taxiway signs and other signs will be turned off or covered up during the construction.
17. Protection of Runway and Taxiway Safety Areas.
a. Runway Safety Area (RSA). A runway safety area is the defined surface surrounding the runway prepared or suitable for reducing the risk of damage to airplanes in the event of an undershoot, overshoot, or excursion from the runway (see AC 150/5300-13A, latest addition and changes).
The McDermitt Airport RSA has the following dimensions:
Runway 16-34: 120’ in width and 6,380’ in length
Construction activities within the existing RSA are subject to the following conditions:
i. No activity (including construction) may occur within the RSA while the runway is open for aircraft operations.
ii. The RSA width will not be adjusted for the proposed project.
iii. Stockpiles are not permitted within the RSA while the runway is open.
iv. Excavations
a. Open trenches or excavations are not permitted within the RSA while the runway is open. Excavations are to be backfilled before the runway is reopened.
b. If required by Airport Operations, construction contractors must prominently mark open trenches and excavations at the construction site with red or orange flags, as approved by the airport operator, and light them with red lights during hours of restricted visibility or darkness.
v. Soil erosion must be controlled to maintain RSA standards, that is, the RSA must be cleared and graded and have no potentially hazardous ruts, humps, depressions, or other surface variations, and capable, under dry conditions, of supporting snow removal equipment, aircraft rescue and firefighting equipment, and the occasional passage of aircraft without causing structural damage to the aircraft.
400997.130.01 | February 2025 | Page 18
b. Runway Object Free Area (ROFA). Construction, including excavations, may be permitted in the ROFA. However, equipment must be removed from the ROFA when not in use. The proposed project does not allow stockpiling within the ROFA.
The McDermitt State Airport ROFA has the following dimensions:
Runway 16-34: 400’ in width and 6,380’ in length
c. Taxiway Safety Area (TSA). A taxiway safety area is a defined surface alongside the taxiway prepared or suitable for reducing the risk of damage to an airplane unintentionally departing the taxiway.
The McDermitt State Airport TSA has a width of 49’.
Construction activities within the TSA are subject to the following conditions:
i. No activity (including construction) may occur within the TSA while the taxiway is open for aircraft operations.
ii. The TSA width will not be adjusted for the proposed project.
iii. Excavations
a. Open trenches or excavations are not permitted within the TSA while the taxiway is open. Excavations are to be backfilled before the taxiway is reopened.
b. If required by Airport Operations, construction contractors must prominently mark open trenches and excavations at the construction site with red or orange flags, as approved by the airport operator, and light them with red lights during hours of restricted visibility or darkness.
iv. Soil erosion must be controlled to maintain TSA standards, that is, the TSA must be cleared and graded and have no potentially hazardous ruts, humps, depressions, or other surface variations, and capable, under dry conditions, of supporting snow removal equipment, aircraft rescue and firefighting equipment, and the occasionally passage of aircraft without causing structural damage to the aircraft.
d. Taxiway Object Free Area (TOFA). Unlike the Runway Object Free Area, aircraft wings regularly penetrate the taxiway object free area during normal operations. Thus, the restrictions are more stringent. No construction may occur within the taxiway object free area while the taxiway is open for aircraft operations.
The McDermitt State Airport TOFA has a width of 89’.
400997.130.01 | February 2025 | Page 19
e. Obstacle Free Zone (OFZ). Personnel, material, and/or equipment may not penetrate the OFZ while the runway is open for aircraft operations.
The McDermitt State Airport OFZ has the following dimensions:
Runway 16-34: 250’ in width and 3,680’ in length
f. Runway Approach/Departure Areas and Clearways. All personnel, materials, and/or equipment must remain clear of the applicable threshold siting surfaces, as defined in
Appendix 2, “Threshold Siting Requirements,” of AC 150/5300-13A, latest addition and changes.
18. Other Limitations on Construction
a. Prohibitions
i. No use of tall equipment (cranes, concrete pumps, etc.) unless a 7460-1 determination letter is issued for such equipment.
ii. No use of open flame, welding, or torches unless fire safety precautions are provided, and the airport operator has approved their use.
iii. No use of electrical blasting caps on or within 1,000 ft. (300 m) of the airport property.
iv. No use of flare pots within the AOA.
b. Restrictions. The Notes and Details shown on the attached Site Work Area and Safety
Plan offer additional details on restrictions on which areas cannot be worked in simultaneously, day/night work restrictions and other limitations.
