June 29, 2018 Alexander Salamon-Adams County Airport - AMT 3399 Cross Road Winchester, Ohio 45697 Attn: Rick Setty, Airport Manager RE: Pavement Condition Index Inspection Mr. Setty: The Office of Aviation conducted a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) inspection of your airport on 6/18/2018. It is our preference to schedule inspections on a three year rotating cycle. This inspection gives the airport and Office of Aviation a definitive picture of the current conditions of your airport pavement and the maintenance necessary to preserve them. This inspection is also an important component of the selection process for airport projects under Federal and State grant programs. The PCI values presented were generated using PAVER™ software. Your pavement inspection was conducted by Russell Glenn Neice Sr. Aviation Services. Included below are observations on the current pavement conditions and recommended maintenance suggestions as follows: Runways:

RWY 05/23 A rated in good condition with a PCI of 89. Distresses noted included low to medium severity weathering, longitudinal and transverse cracking.

Distresses noted were predominantly environmental related, consistent with the pavements age and use. Continued maintenance activities such as crack sealing and seal coat are recommended.

However there are several isolated locations on the runway and Taxiway TWY A, areas paved in 1994 that are experiencing medium severity weathering. This condition should be investigated and repaired to prolong the useful life of your airport pavements.

Runway sections RWY 05 TA and RWY 23 TA were split from the main runway based on marking and use. These sections rated in satisfactory condition with a PCI of 80 & 79 respectively.

Distresses that are predominantly environmental related, consistent with the pavements age and use. Continued maintenance activities such as crack sealing and seal coat are recommended.

Taxiways:

TWY A rated in very poor condition. We noted a combination of environmental and structural distresses. This taxiway also does not meet current airport separation criteria We recommend this pavement for reconfiguration and reconstruction

TWY B with a previous PCI value of 33 was not inspected, but visually rated as failed. ODOT will no longer inspect pavements with less than a minimum PCI value of 40, when there has been no action to address. We recommend this pavement for reconfiguration and reconstruction

Aprons: Apron section APR A with a previous PCI value of 10 was not inspected, but also was visually rated as failed. We recommend this pavement for reconfiguration and reconstruction

Hangar Areas: The airport has no hangar area pavements, the airports Through The Fence (TTF) tenants own the pavement adjacent to their hangars. Hangar Apron & Taxilanes section HAP X was split from the main apron APR A and was not inspected but also visually rated as failed. This area should be required to be reconstructed at the same time as the main apron to minimize FOD migration on to the Airports owned pavements.

General Remarks:

ODOT will no longer inspect pavements with less than a minimum PCI value of 40, when there has been no action to address.

Drainage should be a consideration in any paving project, the turf berm adjacent to the pavement in some areas has grown to the point of holding water at the edge of your pavement for extended periods of time, contributing to aggressive environmental damage in these areas. Additionally we noted other areas where the drop-off at the edge of pavement exceeds the FAA allowed maximum of 3-inches. While the edge of pavement may be considered low traffic areas for aircraft movement, it is heavily trafficked by maintenance, snow removal and mowing activities. While this condition and maximum drop is primarily for aircraft safety, it also contributes to pavement edge cracking due to reduced lateral support and should be corrected. We recommend you initiate a project to address these areas, thus extending the life of the adjacent pavement. Our observations reveal that while some preventative maintenance projects have been undertaken at your airport, indicating you have an understanding what preventative maintenance can do to extend the life of your pavement when done on a regularly scheduled basis. The current lapse in pavement maintenance could ultimately cost your airport, the State and FAA more in the long run by shorting the usable life of your pavement. Additionally Airports with active preventative maintenance programs for their airport pavements usually rank higher in the grant selection process. In order to better position your airport for future pavement grant projects, we recommend continue to refine and implement your airport’s pavement maintenance plan. If you have questions on your PCI inspection call me at (614) 387-0928. A copy of your pavement inspection can also be found on ODOT’s web site under the Airport Pavement & 5010 link.
