Typically this has been interpreted to mean that no penetrations of the FAR Part 77 imaginary surfaces is permitted without a finding by the FAA that the object would not constitute a hazard to air navigation. Furthermore,no payments shall be made from the Aeronautics Account for expenditure on any airport or for the acquisition or development of any airport, if the department determines that the height restrictions around the airport are inadequate to provide reasonable assurance that the landing and taking off of aircraft at the airport will be conducted without obstruction or will be otherwise free from hazards (PUC Section 21688). B.4.2 Sample Airspace Protection Policies The following are other sample airspace protection policies, as provided in Table 4G of the 2011 Handbook: Policy 1: Criteria for determining compatibility of a project as it relates to height shall be based on the standards set forth in FAR Part 77: Objects Affecting Navigable Airspace and applicable airport design standards published by FAA. of Except as indicated in subpart(b)of this policy,no object shall have a height that would penetrate the airspace protection surface of the airport.Any object that penetrates one of these surfaces is,by FAA definition, considered an obstruction. b! A proposed object having a height that exceeds the airport's airspace protection surface shall be allowed only if all the following apply: 1! Upon conclusion of the FAA's 7460 review process, the FAA determines that the object would not be a hazard to air navigation. 2! Marking and lighting of the object will be installed as directed by the FAA aeronautical study(or Caltrans Division of Aeronautics)in a manner consistent with FAA standards (Advisory Circular 70/7460-1J, Obstruction Marking and Lighting). 3! It is determined that the proposed land use is consistent with the other compatibility standards applicable to the zone in which it is proposed. c! An avigation easement shall be dedicated to the airport owner. Policy 2: Land uses that may cause visual, electronic or wildlife hazards to aircraft in flight or taking off or landing at the airport shall be considered compatible within the airport influence area only if the uses are consistent with FAA rules and regulations. a! Characteristics to be avoided: 1! Sources of glare (e.g. mirrored or highly reflective building features) or bright lights; 2!
