Abstract
The FAA has recently changed its policy on how the areas beyond a runway must be purchased and cleared from obstructions. This change has had a major impact on existing and planned future roadways, from county roads to interstate highways in Indiana. This presentation will cover the new requirements and case examples of projects that impacted local and state agencies and the public, as well as what to do if your airport does have a roadway in its Runway Protection Zone.
