About this file
This is a Construction Safety and Phasing Plan (CSPP) document prepared by Century West Engineering for the Oregon Department of Aviation's Joseph State Airport AWOS Replacement Project (AIP No. 3-41-0092-017-2026). The project involves the demolition of the existing Automated Weather Observation System (AWOS) and installation of a new AWOS-3P/T system, including sensor installation on the existing beacon tower, ground level sensors, and associated electrical equipment at Joseph State Airport located approximately 1.5 miles southwest of Joseph, Oregon. Construction is anticipated to commence in Summer 2026 and must be completed within 45 continuous calendar days from the contractor's Notice to Proceed. A preconstruction conference will be held before work begins, and weekly coordination meetings will occur throughout the project duration. The contractor must submit a Safety Plan Compliance Document (SPCD) for engineer approval a minimum of 14 days prior to the Notice to Proceed, and a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) must be issued no later than 72 hours before construction commences.
The CSPP establishes comprehensive safety protocols to maintain airport operational integrity during construction, including restrictions on contractor access routes, vehicle marking requirements with orange and white checkered flags and flashing yellow beacons, mandatory airport safety and radio communication training for all personnel, and requirement for two-way radio communication monitoring on frequency 122.80 MHz. Construction activities are restricted to designated staging areas and approved haul routes, with a portion of Taxiway A closed from north of the fuel island to south of Taxiway A2 for the duration of construction while Runway 15-33 remains completely operational. The contractor must implement low-level barricades with diagonal orange/white reflective striping and flashing red lights spaced no more than 10 feet apart, maintain Foreign Object Debris (FOD) and wildlife management protocols, provide 24-hour emergency contact availability, and ensure daily safety inspections. Penalties for non-compliance include work stoppages, safety meetings, and potential liquidated damages, with the contractor held responsible for all accidents resulting from personnel non-compliance with the safety plan.

I. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVE
Aviation safety is the primary consideration at airports, especially during construction. The
Construction Safety and Phasing Plan (CSPP) is a tool used to ensure safety compliance when coordinating construction activities with airport operations. This document identifies all aspects of the Joseph State Airport AWOS Reconstruction Project that pose a potential safety hazard to airport operations and outlines mitigation procedures for each hazard.
This plan has been prepared in accordance with FAA Advisory Circulars (AC) 150/5300-13B, “Airport Design” and 150/5370-2G, “Operational Safety on Airports During Construction.”
The following objectives must be met by the “Team” comprised of: the Airport Manager; Oregon
Department of Aviation; the Engineering Design Consultant; the Prime Contractor; and various subconsultants, subcontractors, airport users, and airport tenants in order to maximize safety and minimize time and economic loss. These objectives include:
• Maintaining the safety and integrity of operations on the airport.
• To the greatest extent practical, keeping the airport operational for all users.
• Minimizing delays for aircraft and construction operations.
• Maximizing airport operation and construction activity opportunities.
The “Team” must keep these objectives in mind when formulating work schedules and work activities affecting operations on the airport.
II. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTOR
The Contractor is responsible for supplementing and following the CSPP by way of the Safety
Plan Compliance Document (SPCD). See Appendix D for SPCD and Contractor requirements.

B. SCOPE
The overall work includes the following:
1. Demolition of existing AWOS and removal of sensors on the existing beacon tower, ground level sensors, and the associated electrical equipment. The existing foundations are to remain in place.
2. Construction of new AWOS-3P/T, installation of sensors on the existing beacon tower, ground level sensors on existing foundation, and the associated electrical equipment on existing foundation.
V. SAFETY PLAN
A. CONSTUCTION SAFETY AND PHASING
The items listed below follow the guidance of Chapter 2, Section 2, “Plan Requirements” and Chapter 3, “Guidelines for Writing a CSPP” as provided in AC 150/5370-2G-Operational
Safety on Airports During Construction.
1) Coordination.
The Joseph State Airport AWOS Replacement project’s predesign, pre-bid, and preconstruction conferences will be used as opportunities to introduce the subject of airport operational safety during construction and to describe the elements of this
CSPP and resulting SPCD.
a. Contractor Progress Meetings. Operational safety will be a standing agenda item for discussion during weekly progress meetings throughout the duration of the project. The Engineer/Inspector will have final authority for safety decisions on-site and is responsible for stop-work order.
b. Scope or Schedule Changes. Changes in the scope or duration of the project will be represented by revisions to the CSPP.
40097.144.01 | April 2026 | Page 5
c. FAA-ATO Coordination. The contractor will work with the project representative during construction to assure that FAA Air Traffic Organization (ATO) will be coordinated with and schedule, airway facility (including NAVAIDs) shutdowns and restarts. The FAA ATO contact person will be the Western Service Center and can be reached at 1-206-2310-2420.
2) Phasing.
The Site Phasing and Safety Plan for the project details the scheduling of construction phases.
It is anticipated that the project will be completed in a single phase. The single phase includes project mobilization, demolition of the existing AWOS, and the installation of the new AWOS equipment, including the office terminal. The total contract time will be 45 calendar days.
3) Areas and Operations Affected by Construction Activity.
The attached Site Phasing and Safety Plan drawings for the project identify areas and operations affected by the construction. Major impacts include:
a. A portion of Taxiway A will be closed from north of the fuel island to south of
Taxiway A2 during the duration of the construction. The remainder of Taxiway A will remain open which will enable use of Runway 15-33 completely during all of construction. Back-taxi operations may be required.
4) NAVAID Protection.
The runway lights, lighted windcone, REILs, PAPIs, and Threshold lights will remain operational during construction. Extreme caution shall be used when working near new and existing light fixtures, underground electrical ducts, underground electrical cable and any other new or existing airport fixtures. Should damage occur to any of these items, they will be replaced at the Contractor’s expense.
5) Contractor Access.
a. Location of Stockpiled Construction Materials. Stockpiled materials and equipment storage will be restricted to the areas marked as ‘Contractor Staging
Area’ on the attached Site Phasing and Safety Plans. This area is located as far from aircraft operations as feasible. Contractor stockpiled materials and equipment storage are not permitted within Runway Safety Areas (RSA), Obstacle Free Zones (OFZ) or Object Free Areas (OFA) of operational runways.
Stockpiled materials and equipment adjacent to these areas are to be prominently marked and lighted during hours of restricted visibility or darkness
(see Section 16). Limit stockpiled materials to 12 feet in height and at least 125 feet from any runway centerline and 44.5 feet from any taxiway centerline.
Stockpiled materials shall not penetrate Part 77 surfaces shown on the Site
Phasing and Safety Plan in Appendix C. Materials are to be stabilized and stored at an approved location so as not to be a hazard to aircraft operations and to
40097.144.01 | April 2026 | Page 6 prevent attraction of wildlife and foreign object damage. Refer to Sections 6 and
7.
b. Vehicle and Pedestrian Operations. Vehicle and pedestrian access routes for airport construction projects must be controlled to prevent inadvertent or unauthorized entry of persons, vehicles, or animals onto the AOA. Construction and related vehicles shall be restricted to areas clearly indicated on the attached
Site Phasing and Safety Plan sheets and as directed by the Airport. The use of escort vehicles is addressed below.
i. Construction Site Parking. Vehicle parking areas for contractor employees will be restricted to ‘Contractor Staging Areas’ as depicted in the attached
Site Phasing and Safety Plan.
ii. Construction Equipment Parking. Contractor employees must park and service all construction vehicles in ‘Contractor Staging Areas’. Inactive equipment must not be parked on a closed taxiway or runway. Employees shall park construction vehicles in the designated areas when not in use by construction personnel (for example, overnight, on weekends, or during other periods when construction is not active).
iii. Access and Haul Roads. Construction contractor’s access to the construction sites and haul roads has been clearly marked on the Site
Phasing and Safety Plan. The construction contractor is not permitted to use any access or haul roads other than those approved. Access routes used by contractor vehicles must be clearly marked by contractor to prevent inadvertent entry to areas open to airport operations.
iv. Marking and Lighting of Vehicles. Contractor vehicles shall be marked with company identification (on both sides of the vehicle) and a flashing yellow beacon while operating within the airport boundary. Contractor vehicles will be required to have an Engineer approved orange and white checkered flag mounted on pickups, rollers, scrapers, dozers, trenchers, and all other Contractor vehicles and must be visible from 300 feet.
v. Vehicle Operations. Only vehicles used for construction purposes shall enter the air operations area. Contractor vehicle operations are allowed only in defined work areas, haul routes, and paved areas closed to aircraft traffic, unless otherwise approved by the Airport or Engineer in advance. The contractor is to familiarize all construction personnel with the safety provisions.
vi. Training Requirements for Vehicle Drivers. Contractor personnel shall attend Airport Safety and Radio Communication training; training records are kept on file. The training will introduce/refresh the Contractor on airport safety, operations, and communication. The Contractor will be required to pass a test at the end of the training.

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 supplemental barricades with signs are needed for the proposed project.
iv. Air Operations Area – General. Barricades are not permitted in any active safety area or on the runway side of a runway hold line.
v. 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.
vi. Air Operations Area – Other. Not applicable to this project.
vii. 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, barricades, and orange mesh safety fence. The contractor must file the contact person’s information with the airport operator.
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
40097.144.01 | April 2026 | Page 13 airplanes in the event of an undershoot, overshoot, or excursion from the runway
(see AC 150/5300-13B, latest edition and changes).
The Joseph State Airport RSA has the following dimensions:
Runway 15-33: 120’ in width and 5,680’ in length
Construction activities within the 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. No excavations or ground disturbances are allowed under this project.
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.
b. Runway Object Free Area (ROFA). Construction is not anticipated in the ROFA.
Equipment must be removed from the ROFA when not in use. The proposed project does not allow stockpiling within the ROFA.
The Joseph State Airport ROFA has the following dimensions:
Runway 15-33: 250’ in width and 5,680 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 Joseph 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
40097.144.01 | April 2026 | Page 14
a. If required by Airport Operations, open trenches or excavations are not permitted within the TSA while the taxiway is open. No excavations or ground disturbances are allowed under this project.
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 Joseph State Airport TOFA has a width of 89’.
e. Obstacle Free Zone (OFZ). Personnel, material, and/or equipment may not penetrate the OFZ while the runway is open for aircraft operations.
The Joseph State Airport OFZ has the following dimensions:

Item Action Required (Describe)
No Action
Required
(Check)
Failure to issue, update, or cancel
NOTAMs about airport or runway closures or other construction related airport conditions.
Failure to mark and identify utilities or power cables. Damage to utilities and power cables during construction activity can result in the loss of runway / taxiway lighting; loss of navigation, visual, or approach aids; disruption of weather reporting services; and/or loss of communications.
Restrictions on ARFF access from fire stations to the runway / taxiway system or airport buildings.
Lack of radio communications with construction vehicles in airport movement areas.
Objects, regardless of whether they are marked or flagged, or activities anywhere on or near an airport that could be distracting, confusing, or alarming to pilots during aircraft operations.
Water, snow, dirt, debris, or other contaminants that temporarily obscure or derogate the visibility of runway/taxiway marking, lighting, and pavement edges.
Any condition or factor that obscures or diminishes the visibility of areas under construction.
Spillage from vehicles (gasoline, diesel fuel, oil) on active pavement areas, such as runways, taxiways, aprons, and airport roadways.
Failure to maintain drainage system integrity during construction (for example, no temporary drainage provided when working on a drainage system).
D-4
Item Action Required (Describe)
No Action
Required
(Check)
Failure to provide for proper electrical lockout and tagging procedures. At larger airports with multiple maintenance shifts/workers, construction contractors should make provisions for coordinating work on circuits.
Failure to control dust. Consider limiting the amount of area from which the contractor is allowed to strip turf.
Exposed wiring that creates an electrocution or fire ignition hazard.
Identify and secure wiring, and place it in conduit or bury it.
Site burning, which can cause possible obscuration.
Construction work taking place outside of designated work areas and out of phase.
