1: Cost estimates include design contingencies to account for unknowns at time of estimate. Estimates are subject to revision as data becomes available.
2: Denotes part of the runway extension project.
3: Runway extension costs include easement or acquisition costs and improvements to navigational aids.
Project implementation is subject to need and funding availability. Projects will require evaluation pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act.
pj FdgFunding or the airport improvement projects is expected
to come rom ederal, state and local sources.
Fd FdgThe primary source o unding will be the FAA Airport
Improvement Program, which is unded through excise
taxes paid by users o the national airspace system.
Salem Airport receives annual entitlement unding and
may compete with other airports or additional discre-
tionary unding. Federal unding may be used or up to95 percent o a project’s cost. The 5 percent local match
or ederal unding is expected to come rom the State
o Oregon or the Salem Airport enterprise und not the
City’s general und.
S f og FdgConnectOregon is a lottery-based unding source or air,
rail, marine and transit inrastructure. ConnectOregon
unds may be used to pay or up to 80 percent o a proj-
ect’s cost or as a match or FAA unding. The Salem Air-
port was awarded a $2.6 million ConnectOregon grant to
extend the runway and complete other related projects.
l FdgThe Salem Airport does not receive general und support
rom the City o Salem and instead generates revenue
through airport operations including property leases,landing ees and uel owage ees. As an enterprise und
airport, revenue generated by the Airport may only be
used to und airport-related expenses.

8/3/2019 Salem Municipal Airport - Master Plan Executive Summary
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/salem-municipal-airport-master-plan-executive-summary 2/2
BkgdThe Salem Municipal Airport (Salem Airport) Master
Plan builds on the 1997 Airport Master Plan, as adopted
by City Council. The Master Plan includes an inventory
o existing acilities, an overview o environmental
conditions, aviation activity orecasts, a runway needs
assessment, acility requirements and improvement
alternatives analysis, a summary o existing land use
compatibility measures, noise analysis and a Capital
Improvement Plan. The Master Plan is an initial step in
seeking ederal unding or airport improvement projects.
The Master Plan includes justifcation or runway
expansion, which was proposed in the 1997 Master
Plan and included in the City o Salem’s Comprehensive
Plan. The runway length justifcation demonstrated
the need or a 7,000-oot long runway to support
existing users o the Airport. Survey and analysis
indicated that some aircrat operators are required to
take on ewer passengers, less cargo or less uel in order
to operate saely and efciently. The Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) approved the runway length
justifcation in 2010.
pb p A proactive communications program inormed and
involved stakeholders and citizens interested in the
Master Plan. Outreach included stakeholder interviews,
presentations to neighborhood associations and two openhouses. A Planning Advisory Committee made up o airport
neighbors, members o the Airport Advisory Commission,
Airport tenants and Salem sta provided ongoing review o
the Master Plan. The Master Plan was unanimously accepted
by the planning advisory committee and the Airport
Advisory Commission in February 2012.
a a Fss Airport improvement projects are developed to meet exist-
ing and orecasted aviation activity. Forecasts are developed
or general aviation, scheduled commercial passenger and
cargo airlines, and military users or the next 20 years.
The FAA approved the aviation activity orecasts in April
2011 and will adopt them as ofcial FAA orecasts or the
Salem Airport.
Aviation activity is orecasted to 2028 and assumes no
new commercial service; however, the Salem Airport
accommodated scheduled commercial carriers in 2007,
2008 and 2011, and has existing acilities to accommodate
an air carrier should one establish new air service. Other
aviation activity orecasts includes a 22 percent increase inthe number o landings and takeos, a 25 percent increase in
the number o aircrat stored at the Airport and a 45 percent
increase in the volume o cargo handled at the Airport.
Demographic orecasts by Woods & Poole Economics
indicate that the population o the Salem Metropolitan
Statistical Area will increase by 25 percent by 2028.
pfd D pg The Master Plan identifes the preerred airport layout,
which was developed in coordination with the Planning
Advisory Committee and local stakeholders. Airport
improvement projects include the ollowing:
•Extension o the runway to 7,000 eet
•Reconfguration o the taxiway system to improve
efciency and pilot line-o-sight at runway intersections
•Removal o excess taxiway pavement
•Improvement o the passenger terminal
•Rehabilitation o apron
•Development o hangars
•Development o commercial property
pj Hghgh: rw eThe Master Plan calls or the runway extensio

Airport saety, efciency and utility or existin
other projects in the capital improvement plan
ered supporting projects to the runway extensi
taxiway extension and navigational aid relocat
the runway will be shited to the south by 216
FAA requirements and improve the airport tra
tower’s line-o-sight to the runway end.
Existing Airport users will not have to reduce p
reuel en route as requently, which will impro
their operations. Noise analysis indicates that t
runway to the south will reduce aircrat noise neighborhoods to the north o the Airport.
An environmental assessment is being comple
runway extension and will provide detailed rev
environmental categories that must be conside
to the National Environmental Policy Act.
