Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) Program Assurances
General.
These assurances shall be complied with in the conduct of a project funded with passenger facility charge (PFC) revenue.
These assurances are required to be submitted as part of the application for approval of authority to impose a PFC under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 40117.
Upon approval by the Administrator of an application, the public agency is responsible for compliance with these assurances.
Public agency certification. The public agency hereby assures and certifies, with respect to this project that:
Responsibility and authority of the public agency. It has legal authority to impose a PFC and to finance and carry out the proposed project; that a resolution, motion or similar action has been duly adopted or passed as an official act of the public agency's governing body authorizing the filing ofthe application, including all understandings and assurances contained therein, and directing and authorizing the person identified as the official representative of the public agency to act in connection with the application.
Compliance with regulation. It will comply with all provisions of 14 CFR part 158.
Compliance with state and local laws and regulations. It has complied, or will comply, with all applicable State and local laws and regulations.
Environmental, airspace and airport layout plan requirements. It will not use PFC revenue on a project until the FAA has notified the public agency that—
Any actions required under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 have been completed;
The appropriate airspace finding has been made; and
The FAA Airport Layout Plan with respect to the project has been approved.
PFC Assurances (2007)
Nonexclusivity of contractual agreements. It will not enter into an exclusive long-term lease or use agreement with an air carrier or foreign air carrier for projects funded by PFC revenue. Such leases or use agreements will not preclude the public agency from funding, developing, or assigning new capacity at the airport with PFC revenue.
Carryover provisions. It will not enter into any lease or use agreement with any air carrier or foreign air carrier for any facility financed in whole or in part with revenue derived from a passenger facility charge if such agreement for such facility contains a carryover provision regarding a renewal option which, upon expiration ofthe original lease, would operate to automatically extend the term of such agreement with such carrier in preference to any potentially competing air carrier or foreign air carrier seeking to negotiate a lease or use agreement for such facilities.
Competitive access. It agrees that any lease or use agreements between the public agency and any air carrier or foreign air carrier for any facility financed in whole or in part with revenue derived from a passenger facility charge will contain a provision that permits the public agency to terminate the lease or use agreement if—
The air carrier or foreign air carrier has an exclusive lease or use agreement for existing facilities at such airport; and
Any portion of its existing exclusive use facilities is not fully utilized and is not made available for use by potentially competing air carriers or foreign air carriers.
Rates, fees and charges.
It will not treat PFC revenue as airport revenue for the purpose of establishing a rate, fee or charge pursuant to a contract with an air carrier or foreign air carrier.
It will not include in its rate base by means of depreciation, amortization, or any other method, that portion of the capital costs of a project paid for by PFC revenue for the purpose of establishing a rate, fee or charge pursuant to a contract with an air carrier or foreign air carrier.
Notwithstanding the limitation provided in subparagraph (b), with respect to a project for terminal development, gates and related areas, or a facility occupied or used by one or more air carriers or foreign air carriers on an exclusive or preferential basis, the rates, fees, and charges payable by such carriers that use such facilities will be no less than the rates, fees, and charges paid by such carriers using similar facilities at the airport that were not financed by PFC revenue.
Standards and specifications. It will carry out the project in accordance with FAA airport design, construction and equipment standards and specifications contained in advisory circulars current on the date of project approval.
PFC Assurances (2007)
Recordkeeping and Audit. It will maintain an accounting record for audit purposes for 3 years after physical and financial completion of the project. All records must satisfy the requirements of 14 CFR part 158 and contain documentary evidence for all items of project costs.
Reports. It will submit reports in accordance with the requirements of 14 CFR part 158, subpart D, and as the Administrator may reasonably request.
Compliance with 49 U.S.C. 47523 through 47528. It understands 49 U.S.C. 47524 and 47526 require that the authority to impose a PFC be terminated ifthe Administrator determines the public agency has failed to comply with those sections of the United States Code or with the implementing regulations published under the Code.

Re: Gary/Chicago International Airport
Capital Improvement Program (2015-2020)
Dear Mr. Rector:
I want to begin by telling you that we are experiencing some exciting times at our facility. In addition to being in the homestretch on the runway extension program, we are encouraged by the conviction of others as we seek opportunities to realize our full potential. Recently, we have entered into agreements with a second Fixed Base Operator who is investing in excess of $3M to construct a new FBO facility and Hangar complex. We have also transitioned the management of the Airport to the public-private partnership that will provide valuable expertise and attract at least $100M of private investment over the next 40 years.
As we work to provide these new ventures and our current users with a quality airfield, it is imperative that we not only expand our infrastructure, but also maintain and improve our existing facilities. Therefore; on behalf of the Gary/Chicago International Airport Authority (GCIAA), we are pleased to submit our proposed Capital Improvement Program for fiscal years 2015 - 2020. As you may know, GCIAA has made substantial progress on the runway expansion program. The railroad has been relocated and the berm has been removed. Please know that we are currently on track to open the runway extension to full length in June and to commission the new approaches in August of this year.
Now that the runway project is in its final stages, we need to focus on the other needs of the airfield. The past Pavement Condition Index study commissioned by your office reaffirms what we had always suspected. A substantial amount of our pavements are in dire need of rehabilitation. GCIAA has utilized approximately $1.8M of our TIF dollars to complete the rehabilitation of the apron in front of the new Gary Jet Center hangar and to complete the design for the rehabilitation of the terminal and GA ramps. Unfortunately, our remaining and future TIF dollars are pledged to complete the runway expansion program. We are finalizing a PFC application with the City of Chicago to complete the apron rehabilitation tasks. As for the runways and taxiways, we strongly urge INDOT and the FAA to support the long overdue pavement rehabilitation projects listed in the CIP.
We trust that you will find these projects acceptable as we all work toward our goal of improving the G^yZCTftsago In/JeTn^tionaj^i^port. If you have any questions, or need additional information, please call me a(f (219) 9*9-4S(31. )/^}

Capital Improvement Program Justification
GARY/CHICAGO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT FY 2016 - 2020 (mcluding 2015)
The Runway Expansion Program is nearing completion. There will still be several disbursements for the program listed within this CIP and will be reimbursed as funding becomes available. Please note that no other discretionary or non-primary funds other than what is listed below can be utilized for the runway extension program due to the LOI agreement.
While the current CIP submittal is looking into future years 2016 through 2020, we are including additional 2015 discretionary requests based on the needs identified in the previously completed PCI study. The following sections describe the purpose and need for various projects within our Capital Improvement Plan.
LOI Program Reimbursement (LOI & FAA NPE Funds) FY 2015
The Runway Expansion Program is anticipated to be complete this year and the reimbursement will be ongoing. This disbursement will provide the next allocation of funds. The FAA funds utilized for this disbursement include $2.84M of LOI discretionary and $1M of NPE funds. The total program cost associated with this request is $4,266,667.
Rehabilitate Runway "02-20" & Taxiway "B" South FY 2015
(FAA Discretionary)
You only need to look at the 2011 photo on Google Earth to realize that the majority of the pavements at the Airport are in dire need of reconstruction. This is further supported by the recent PCI study commissioned by INDOT. The priorities are Runway "2-20", Taxiways "B" & "C" and Taxiway "A" in that order. Because of the magnitude of this project, it will be important to phase this effort to accomplish as large a scope as can reasonable be completed in one construction season. This task provides for the design and reconstruction of the south half of Runway "02-20". As a result of its intersection with Runway "12-30", extra attention will have to be given to the phasing of this program which can contribute to the cost.
The airfield pavements associated with Taxiways "B" & "C" and the associated connectors are also in desperate need of reconstruction. As this project anticipates a reconstruction effort, this project includes the relocation of the southern portion of Taxiway "B" that does not meet the current taxiway offset standards. This will result in better orientation of the taxiway hold position lines and correction of the non-standard signage. This project also anticipates the use of FAA discretionary funds to complete the program in the amount of $4.9M.
Gary/Chicago International Airport CIP Justification Page 1 of 6

- Phase I {PFC Funding)
Per the recent PCI report, the most dire pavements on the airport are predominantly in the area of the terminal apron and the general aviation aprons to the east. All of these areas are well below the minimum service levels and are bordering upon the level of "Poor" and "Failure". As seen in the attached photo, the pavement is very poor and alligator cracking is predominant. Although GYY has a proactive crack sealing program, this pavement is getting to the point that it is difficult to seal these areas. We have opted to use a portion of our ADZ TIF funds to complete the design; however, the balance of our TIF funds have been committed to the Runway program in order to leverage an additional $30M of Regional Development Authority funding. Therefore, this project remains a top priority for 2015 and seeks discretionary funding. This project has been divided into phases for the purposes of construction as well funding. Phase I of the apron rehab program requires $2,000,000. The additional four phases of the apron rehab program requires funding in the amounts of $2,000,000, $2,500,000, $2,500,000 and $1,125,000 respectively. Ideally, Phase I, II, III, IV, & V should be constructed concurrently; however, they have been separated to provide flexibility for any amount of available funds.
FY 2015
. It will soon be 15 years old and the
Update Airport Master Plan - Phase I (PFC Funds)
The current Master Plan was completed and approved in 2( majority of the airfield improvement projects will have been completed. The completion of the Runway "12-30" Extension and Safety Area Correction project will likely result in an increase of aircraft traffic resulting from either new airline users or other larger aircraft users. For this reason, we must begin thinking about the long term future of the Airport. Toward this end, we anticipate using PFC funds over two years to begin the next update of the Airport's Master Plan and Airport Layout Plan.
Snow Removal Equipment - Truck & Plow (FAA Discretionary) FY 2015
GYY has in excess of 4,000,000 square feet of airfield pavement that is cleared during every snow event. And while the airport has a large fleet of equipment, much of the equipment is old and expensive to repair and maintain. The last new pieces of snow equipment were purchased in 2006 and are nearing their anticipated life of 10 years as well. The other equipment is approaching 20 to 30 years in age. While pavement rehabilitation is vital, it is our goal to get on a revolving schedule of replacing one unit of equipment every three years and increase that rotation to every two years once the pavement rehabilitation effort is complete. The airport is seeking discretionary funds to support a total project amount of $450,000.
6. LOI Program Reimbursement (FAA NPE Funds) FY 2016
This disbursement will provide the next allocation of funds. The FAA funds utilized for this disbursement include $1M of NPE funds. The total program cost associated with this request is $1,111,111.
Gary/Chicago International Airport CIP Justification Page 2 of 6
A- 12
Rehabilitate Taxiway "A" (FAA Discretionary)
Taxiway "A" is another component of the airfield pavement that needs rehabilitation. Taxiway A was preserved with a slurry seal coat in 2005; however, it has reached its useful life and is now in need of more permanent reconstruction. This project will include a phased reconstructive effort that will maintain operations and traffic to and from Runway "12-30" and the aprons. This project seeks FAA discretionary funds in order to complete this rehabilitation task. The total program cost for this task is estimated to be $7.8M.
8. Rehabilitate Apron - Phases II (PFC Funding) FY 2016
This project provides for the second phase of the apron rehabilitation discussed under Item 3 above. The airport is seeking PFC funds to support this phase of the project in the amount of $2,000,000.
Update Airport Master Plan - Phase II (PFC Funds)
This project provides for the second phase of the airport master plan update discussed above under item 3. The airport is seeking PFC funds to support this phase of the project in the amount of $500,000.
Snow Removal Equipment (SRE) Building Expansion (FAA Discretionary) FY 2016
This project provides for the expansion of the Snow Removal Equipment Building. With the additional equipment necessary for the airports snow removal operation, it is necessary to expand the building. We currently have more equipment than we can fit into our existing facility. The airport is seeking discretionary funds to support a total program cost of $1,050,000.
LOI Program Reimbursement (FAA NPE Funds) FY 2017
This disbursement will provide the next allocation of funds. The FAA funds utilized for this disbursement include $1M of NPE funds. The total program cost associated with this request is $1,111,111.
Rehabilitate Runway "12-30" - Phase I (FAA Discretionary)
Runway 12-30 was milled and overlaid in 2004. This rehabilitation method was considered to be a ten year fix and it was known that at some point, a more extensive reconstruction effort would be required. The current PCI indicates that the runway is nearly below the minimum service levels now; however, the pavement will be monitored and repairs will be made as needed to ensure that it lasts until this effort can be completed. This phase will complete the rehabilitation from the west extension to Runway "02-20". The total project costs for this request are $4,625,000.
13. Rehabilitate Apron - Phases III (PFC Funding) FY 2017
This project provides for the third phase of the apron rehabilitation discussed above under Item 3. The airport is seeking PFC funds to support this phase of the project in the amount of $2,500,000.
Gary/Chicago International Airport CIP Justification Page 3 of 6
A - 1"*
LOI Program Reimbursement (FAA NPE Funds)
This disbursement will provide the final allocation of approved funds. The FAA funds utilized for this disbursement include $550,000 of NPE funds. The total program cost associated with this request is $611,111.
15. Rehabilitate Runway "12-30" - Phase II (FAA Discretionary) FY 2018
This project will be the second phase of the runway rehabilitation program and will include the section of the runway from Runway "2-20" to a point just past Taxiway "A-2". The total program cost associated with this request is $5,625,000.
Terminal Expansion - Design (FAA Discretionary) FY 2018
With the increased runway length, it is anticipated that GYY will have increased passenger traffic which will increase the demand on the terminal building. The current terminal size only allows for one aircraft at a time, simply due to the size of the passenger hold room. Thus, conceptual floor plans for a two story expansion to the east were developed. The concept provided for a Customs & Border Patrol area on the lower floor with a complete holding area on the second floor, as well as an additional passenger loading bridge. The expansion of this terminal was included in the EIS and ROD. This project provides for the completion of the design and preparation of bid documents. The total cost associated with this request is $600,000.
New ARFF Facility - Design & CATEX (FAA Discretionary) FY 2018
The increase in the passenger hold room capacity will likely be followed up with an expansion of the baggage handling area. As the current baggage handling is accomplished in the western portion of the existing terminal, it is logical that a building expansion to the west will be required in the near future as well. Currently, the existing ARFF facility is located to the west and in the way of any future expansion. The existing ARFF facility is also outdated and the current ARFF vehicles barely fit within the facility. A new ARFF facility site has been identified on the south side of the airport near the control tower. It is expected that a minimal level of environmental work will be required in order to obtain a CatEx. This phase of the project will provide for the design and bidding portion of the project. The total cost associated with this request is $200,000.
Rehabilitate Apron - Phases IV (PFC Funding) FY 2018
This project provides for the fourth phase of the apron rehabilitation as discussed above under Item 3. The airport is seeking PFC funds to support this phase of the project in the amount of $2,500,000.
Snow Removal Equipment - Snow Broom (FAA Discretionary) FY 2018
GYY has in excess of 4,000,000 square feet of airfield pavement that is cleared during every snow event. And while the airport has a large fleet of equipment, much of the equipment is old and expensive to repair and maintain. The last new pieces of snow equipment were purchased in 2006 and are nearing their anticipated life of 10 years as well. The other equipment is approaching 20 to 30 years in age. While pavement rehabilitation is vital, it is our goal to get on a revolving schedule

of replacing one unit of equipment every three years and increase that rotation to every two years once the pavement rehabilitation effort is complete. The airport is seeking discretionary funds to support a total project amount of $500,000.
20. Rehabilitate Runway "12-30" - Phase III (FAA Discretionary) FY 2019
This project will be the third and final phase of the runway rehabilitation program and will include the section of the runway from just past Taxiway "A-2" to the end of Runway "30". The total program cost associated with this request is $5,625,000.
New ARFF Facility - Construction (FAA Discretionary) FY 2019
This phase provides for the construction of the ARFF Relocation program. The total cost associated with this request is $1.5M.
Rehabilitate Apron - Phases V {PFC Funding) FY 2019
This project provides for the fifth and final phase of the apron rehabilitation discussed above under Item 3. The airport is seeking PFC funds to support this phase of the project in the amount of $1,125,000.
Terminal Expansion - Construction (FAA Discretionary) FY 2020
This phase provides for the construction of the Terminal Expansion program. The total cost associated with this request is $5.5M.
Rehabilitate Runway "2-20" & Taxiway "B" North FY 2020
(FAA Discretionary & NPE)
This project tackles the remaining phase of Runway "2-20" and Taxiway "B" rehabilitation effort. This phase will complete all work north of Runway "12-30". The Airport is seeking FAA discretionary funds for this project. The total project cost associated with this request is $4.4M.
25. Install Runway Incursion Caution Lights (FAA Discretionary) FY 2020
In an effort to prevent runway incursions, GYY desires to install Runway Guard Lights (RGLs). RGLs have proven to be an additional tool to caution pilots and airfield personnel about the approaching runway area. We recently obtained several light units from Chicago O'Hare. This task will provide a much safer environment on the airfield. We anticipate using local funds to install the bases, conduits, cables and vault equipment for a total project cost of $375,000.
CIP Justification a - -is
26. Install Parking Revenue Equipment (Local Funds)
The current state of the property tax system has had an effect on many airports abilities to meet operating budget needs. In addition to the budget woes, GYY has incurred many expenses associated with ongoing operation and management of the airport. In the past, we have utilized a contractor to implement and collect parking revenues manually. This project will include the installation of automated equipment that was purchased in the past. In order to accomplish this, we are utilizing local funds to install the automated parking revenue equipment. No funds are being requested for this project. This is a demand-driven project and may be accelerated should airline service commence.

Airport Pavement Maintenance/Management Program - Summary (2016-2020 cip)
(Airport must conduct an offective "Pavement/Maintenance Management Program" in accordance with grant assurances)
Airport Name: Gary/Chicago International Airport
Date of last PCI Report: 2013
Are pavements inspected monthly: Yes: X No:
Are pavements inspected annually: Yes: X No _
Date of last annual inspection for:
Runway(s):
Taxiway(s):
Apron(s):
Taxilane(s):
Other;
December 2014 December 2014 December 2014 December 2014 December 2014
Briefly describe below your "Airport Pavement Maintenance/Management Program":
Airport pavement surfaces are inspected during daily and monthly inspections (monthly Inspections replace annual inspections). Daily inspections check for pavement surface irregularities that may present hazards to aircraft. Identified hazards are recorded and then repair action is immediately initiated to ensure aircraft safety. Monthly inspections record ongoing pavement surface irregularities of a non-hazardous nature. Monthly inspections are more in-depth than daily inspections. Findings, as well as past and current corrective actions, are recorded. Future observation schedules and long-range (permanent) corrective actions, such as additions to the Capital Improvement Program, are determined.
Briefly explain below what work was actually done over the past 3 years to maintain your pavements (joint repair, crack repair, seal coating and etc.):
Year 2012 2013 2014

The cost estimate for this project was prepared by the Airport Authority's Engineering Consultant using a bottom-up cost estimating approach to prepare an Engineer's Estimate of Probable Construction Costs based on estimated quantities for the various types of construction activities needed to complete the scope of this project, and cost data obtained from recently bid construction projects at the airport. There have been two recent projects bid at the Airport that were of similar scope and nature. The use of the bid tabulations from these prior GYY projects were used to establish the estimated unit costs for the program.

8. Project Description:
This project consists ofthe rehabilitation of approximately 63,400 square yards (sys) of apron pavement. The project is divided into several phases in order to maintain operational access to various areas ofthe airfield.
Phase I (General Aviation (GA) Ramp in front of new Fixed Base Operator (FBO)) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 3,600 sys of 14 inch Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) Pavement and 6,100 sys of 10 inch PCC Pavement.
R - T
Phase II (Terminal Ramp East) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 12,000 sys of 12 inch PCC Pavement.
Phase III (Terminal Ramp West) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 15,000 sys of 14 inch PCC Pavement.
Phase IV (GA Ramp East) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 26,700 sys of 10 inch PCC Pavement.
This project includes the construction costs and construction administration professional fees. The design was completed utilizing local Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) funds and is not expected to be reimbursed with PF"C funds.

9. Significant Contribution:
The terminal area has had several apron expansion projects in recent years. In between all these projects is a section of bituminous pavement that was last overlaid in 1994. This past rehabilitation project was designed to provide an extended life of six to ten years; fortunately, the pavement has now lasted 20 years. The last 10 years, the pavement has also been subjected to higher volumes of heavy aircraft than ever anticipated. This heavy traffic has paid a heavy toll on this pavement. The pavement is very poor and alligator cracking is dominant. Although GYY has a proactive crack sealing program, this pavement is getting to the point that it is difficult to seal these areas. Currently, traffic is down which provides an opportune time to reconstruct these pavements so as to not impact operations.
A portion of the general aviation apron pavement (Phase 1) was originally designed for small general aviation aircraft and abuts the existing T-Hangar area. The existing pavement section consists of approximately 4-5" of bituminous pavement on 6" of compacted aggregate. With the construction of the B-Coleman FBO Facility and Hangar, increased traffic from heavier aircraft will only accelerate the continued degradation of this pavement. This section along with the other sections has a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating of 32 to 57 which is Very Poor to Poor. These pavements need to be reconstructed in order to avoid potential failure that could result in damage to aircraft.
According to the Pavement Condition Report, Pavement sections 3005 (Terminal Ramp) and 3125 (FBO Ramp) had PCI range ratings of Very Poor, indicating intensive pavement rehabilitation is needed to maintain serviceability. Six pavement sections including: 170 (Twy A-4), 180 (Twy A-2), 205 (Twy B), 3030 (Ramp), 3105(FBO Ramp), and 3110 (FBO Ramp) had PCI range ratings of Poor, indicating that either major M&R is needed or that near-term maintenance needs may be extensive in order to maintain serviceability. The completion of this project will avoid potential failure that could result in damage to aircraft or the creation of Foreign Object Debris (FOD), thereby enhancing the safety of the Airport.
Pavement Condition Report excerpts included in Attachment F of this Application show that the pavement is ranked as the worst pavement on the Airport. Information provided in the Pavement Condition Report serves to further justify the need for this project as well as provide evidence that this project will enhance safety at the Airport.

The project will prevent the formation of Foreign Object Damage (FOD) that could damage aircraft engines, potentially causing them to fail and endanger aircraft, operators, and passengers. While no FOD has yet been reported, the Pavement Condition Report indicates the likelihood of this occurring. Therefore, this project meets the PFC objective of preserving the safety of GYY's airfield as well as preserving the capacity of the terminal area and general aviation aircraft parking apron.

11. Project Justification:
The existing apron pavement is severely cracked and broken and has a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating of Very Poor to Poor and is far beyond its useful life. There are many areas that are approaching complete failure and repair and maintenance of the pavement is beyond the administration's capabilities. The completion of this project will avoid potential failure that could result in damage to aircraft or the creation of Foreign Object Debris (FOD), thereby enhancing the safety ofthe Airport. Upon completion, this project will result with a pavement that will have an extended life exceeding 20 years.

Project Description:
This project will consist of updating the Gary/Chicago International Airport's Master Plan including the Airport Layout Plan (ALP). A new Airport Layout Plan will serve as a planning tool for the airport depicting existing facilities and future facilities, designed to accommodate future demand.
The Master Plan update will include a review ofthe Airport's inventory, an aviation demand forecast (including commercial and air cargo industries), facility requirements analysis, alternative developments to meet future demand and upgrade airfield facilities.

9. Significant Contribution:
The Master Plan is a study used to develop and evaluate facility recommendations consistent with an airport's character and activity levels. Gary/Chicago Airport Authority completed a Master Plan Update in 2001. The Gary/Chicago Master Plan evaluated various airfield alternatives, with emphasis on those that address airport design deficiencies. The current Master Plan and Airport Layout Plan is 13 years old. With an anticipated planning process of two to four years, the Master Plan will be between 15 and 17 years old and a substantial amount of the projects listed on the current ALP will be complete.
B- 16
Recent changes of Advisory Circular 5300-13A, which relates to the FAA standards and recommendations for airport design, and other changes that have occurred in advisory circulars since last Master Plan Update also need to be considered.

Re: Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) Application 15-27-C-00-ORD Chicago O'Hare International Airport (O'Hare) Gary/Chicago International Airport (Gary)
Dear [GREETING],
On August 1, 2014, the City of Chicago distributed a letter notifying air carriers at O'Hare International Airport (O'Hare) of the City's intent to file PFC Application 14-27-C-00-ORD for authority to impose a PFC at O'Hare and to use PFC revenue for new projects at Gary/Chicago International Airport (Gary). The City held a meeting on September 5, 2014 and presented these projects to air carriers and foreign air carriers operating at O'Hare, after which the carriers had a period to provide comments and certification of agreement or disagreement. The City subsequently determined that not all air carriers and foreign air carriers providing scheduled service at O'Hare received the initial notification letter. Therefore, the City has elected to withdraw PFC Application 14-27-C-00-ORD and expand the consultation to include all necessary carriers.
The City is restarting the PFC airline consultation process with the distribution of this notice. The remainder of information regarding the projects for which the City is seeking PFC authority contained herein is identical to the information provided in the August 1, 2014 notification letter. There have been no changes to the scope or cost of the projects. Carriers who have already submitted letters certifying agreement and comments as a result of the initial consultation have the opportunity to submit new certification letters during the re-consultation process. If these carriers choose not to do so, their initial certifications and associated comments will be included in the new PFC Application 15-27-C-00-ORD.
10.0 10 WEST X li.M K F. [5 GAD. P.O. BOX Oliil J. CHICAGO. ILLINOIS 606 OH
In accordance with Section 158.23 of Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 158, the City of Chicago (City) hereby provides written notice of its intent to file an application with the Federal Aviation Administration for authority under provisions of the United States Code (49 USC § 40117) to impose a passenger facility charge at O'Hare, and to use passenger facility charge revenue for new projects at Gary. This notice includes information pursuant to section 128.23 of FAR Part 158 and is provided to all air carriers and foreign air carriers having a significant business interest at O'Hare. Through a 1995 compact between the City, the City of Gary, and the Gary Board of Directors (the Compact), Gary has access to a small percentage of PFC revenue collected at O'Hare. Pursuant to the Compact, the Airport Authority maintains a 12-member Compact board of directors (separate from the Airport Board), the City and the City of Gary each appoint five members and the states of Indiana and Illinois appoint one member each. Additional information is provided in an attachment to this letter.
The City will hold a meeting to present these projects to air carriers and foreign air carriers operating at O'Hare on Tuesday, June 16, 2015. The City will accept carrier comments, and certifications of agreement or disagreement with the proposed projects, until July 16, 2015.
Application to Impose a PFC at O'Hare and Use PFC Revenue for New Projects at Gary Section 158.23(a)(1). Description of Projects
The City intends to file an application to impose a PFC at O'Hare and to use PFC revenue for the following projects at Gary:
Master Plan Update
This project consists of the planning efforts necessary to update the Master Plan and Airport Layout Plan for Gary. The Master Plan is a study used to develop and evaluate facility recommendations consistent with an airport's character and activity levels. Gary/Chicago Airport Authority completed a Master Plan Update in 2001. The Gary/Chicago Master Plan evaluated various airfield alternatives, with emphasis on those that address airport design deficiencies. The current Master Plan and Airport Layout Plan is 13 years old. With an anticipated planning process of two to four years, the Master Plan will be between 15 and 17 years old and a substantial amount of the projects listed on the current ALP will be complete.
This update will also evaluate and include the recent changes of Advisory Circular 5300-13A, which relates to the FAA standards and recommendations for airport design, and other changes that have occurred in advisory circulars since 2001.
Apron Rehabilitation
This project consists of the rehabilitation of approximately 63,400 square yards (sys) of apron pavement. The project is divided into several phases in order to maintain operational access to various areas of the airfield.
This project includes the construction costs and construction administration professional fees. The design was completed utilizing local Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) funds and is not
n . a
expected to be reimbursed with PFC funds.
A portion of the general aviation apron pavement (Phase 1) was originally designed for small general aviation aircraft and abuts the existing T-Hangar. The existing pavement section consists of approximately 4-5" of bituminous pavement on 6" of compacted aggregate. With the construction of the B. Coleman Fixed Base Operator (FBO) Facility and Hangar, increased traffic from heavier aircraft may accelerate the continued degradation of this pavement. This section along with the other sections has a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating of 32 to 57 which is Very Poor to Poor. These pavements need to be reconstructed in order to avoid potential failure that could result in damage to aircraft.
The total amount of PFC revenue currently estimated to be associated with this proposed impose and use application is $11,125,000. The City anticipates that this entire amount will be approved for a PFC at the $4.50 level as the Master Plan Update will preserve and enhance airspace capacity and the Apron Rehabilitation will preserve and enhance air safety. Additional information regarding the above projects, including the projects' scope, justification and financing plan, is included in the exhibit to this letter and will be presented at the meeting on Tuesday, June 16, 2015.
Section 158.23 (a)(2). The PFC Level, Effective Date, Expiration Date and Total Revenue
PFC Level: $4.50 per enplaned passenger at O'Hare Charge Effective Date: January 1, 2039 Estimated Charge Expiration Date1: February 1, 2039 Estimated Total PFC Revenue: $6,628,490,989
The above proposed charge expiration date and total PFC revenue reflect the current and pending impose approval and the total amount of PFC revenue as modified only by this proposed impose and use application.
Section 158.23(a)(3). Request that a Class of Carriers not be Required to Collect PFCs.
The following is information required specifically for the proposed impose and use application above.
(i) Class Designation: Air Taxi
(ii) /(iii) Names of Known Carriers Belonging to Class Identified in this Section and
Estimated Number of Annual Enplaned Passengers:
1 Expiration date estimated based on an annual collection of approximately $150 million, rounded to the nearest month.
2013 Enplanements

Priester Aviation LLC 28
Seneca Flight Operations|910|Tulip City Air Service, Inc.|910|Ultimate Jetcharters LLC 175
Total 919
Source: ACAIS Database, Accessed May 15,2015
(iv) Reasons for Requesting that Carriers Identified in this Section Not be Required to
Collect the PFC: The number of passengers enplaned annually by this class of carriers represents fewer than one percent of total enplanements at O'Hare. The estimated annual PFC revenue from these carriers would be approximately $4,034 as compared to the estimated PFC revenue of $130,893,933 from all other carriers. In accordance with Section 158.11 of FAR Part 158, the City may request of the FAA in its application for authority to impose PFCs, and in its application for authority to use PFCs, that collection of PFCs by any class of air carriers or foreign air carriers not be required if the number of passengers enplaned by the carriers in this class constitutes no more than one percent of the total number of passengers enplaned annually at the airport at which the PFC is imposed. This is the case with the class of carriers identified herein.
This is the same class that was already approved for exemption by FAA (See June 28, 1993 Record of Decision, p.26). Information on known carriers belonging to the class has been updated to reflect the Department of Transportation (DOT) Air Carrier Activity Information System Report for calendar year 2013, the most recent report available to the City.
Section 158.23(a)(4). Date and Location of Air Carrier Consultation Meeting.
The City will hold a meeting to present the project to air carriers and foreign air carriers operating at O'Hare:
Date: Tuesday, June 16, 2015

Apron Rehabilitation Project Description:
This project consists of the rehabilitation of approximately 63,400 square yards (sys) of apron pavement. The project is divided into several phases in order to maintain operational access to various areas of the airfield. Exhibit B shows the area and location of the apron rehabilitation project.
Phase I (General Aviation (GA) Ramp in front of new Fixed Base Operator (FBO)) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 3,600 sys of 14 inch Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) Pavement and 6,100 sys of 10 inch PCC Pavement.
Phase II (Terminal Ramp East) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 12,000 sys of 12 inch PCC Pavement.
Phase III (Terminal Ramp West) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 15,000 sys of 14 inch PCC Pavement.
Phase IV (GA Ramp East) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 26,700 sys of 10 inch PCC Pavement.
This project includes the construction costs and construction administration professional fees. The design was completed utilizing local Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) funds and is not expected to be reimbursed with PFC funds.
Project Justification/Significant Contribution:
A portion of the general aviation apron pavement (Phase 1) was originally designed for small general aviation aircraft and abuts the existing T-Hangar area. The existing pavement section consists of approximately 4-5" of bituminous pavement on 6" of compacted aggregate. With the construction of the B-Coleman FBO Facility and Hangar, increased traffic from heavier aircraft will only accelerate the continued degradation of this pavement. This section along with the other sections has a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating of 32 to 57 which is Very Poor to Poor. These pavements need to be reconstructed in order to avoid potential failure that could result in damage to aircraft.
Project Objective:
The project will prevent the formation of Foreign Object Damage (FOD) that could damage aircraft engines, potentially causing them to fail and endanger aircraft, operators and passengers. Therefore, this project meets the PFC objective of preserving the safety of Gary's airfield as well as preserving the capacity of the terminal area and general aviation aircraft parking apron.

PROJECT INFORMATION
Application to Impose a PFC at O'Hare and Use PFC Revenue for New Projects at
Gary/Chicago International Airport
Master Plan Update
Project Description:
This project will consist of updating the Gary/Chicago International Airport's Master Plan including the Airport Layout Plan (ALP). A new Airport Layout Plan will serve as a planning tool for the airport depicting existing facilities and future facilities, designed to accommodate future demand.
The Master Plan update will include a review of the Airport's inventory, an aviation demand forecast (including commercial and air cargo industries), facility requirements analysis, alternative developments to meet future demand and upgrade airfield facilities.
Project Justification/Significant Contribution:
The Master Plan is a study used to develop and evaluate facility recommendations consistent with an airport's character and activity levels. Gary/Chicago Airport Authority completed a Master Plan Update in 2001 that evaluated various airfield alternatives, with emphasis on those that address airport design deficiencies. With an anticipated planning process of two to four years, the Master Plan will be between 15 and 17 years old and a substantial amount of the projects listed on the 2001 ALP will be complete. An update of the Master Plan is necessary in order to make facility recommendations consistent with the airport's current activity levels and to consider changes to FAA standards and recommendations for airport design that have occurred since 2001.
The Master Plan Update will also take into consideration the City-wide Master Planning and Land Development program being implemented by the Public Private Partnership (P3). This effort will provide for a more comprehensive area-wide land use plan to ensure parallel growth and compatibility.
Project Objective:
The Master Plan Update project will preserve and enhance the capacity ofthe national airspace system by planning for future development as needed to accommodate demand.

Apron Rehabilitation Project Description:
This project consists of the rehabilitation of approximately 63,400 square yards (sys) of apron pavement. The project is divided into several phases in order to maintain operational access to various areas of the airfield. Exhibit B shows the area and location of the apron rehabilitation project.
Phase I (General Aviation (GA) Ramp in front of new Fixed Base Operator (FBO)) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 3,600 sys of 14 inch Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) Pavement and 6,100 sys of 10 inch PCC Pavement.
Phase II (Terminal Ramp East) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 12,000 sys of 12 inch PCC Pavement.
Phase III (Terminal Ramp West) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 15,000 sys of 14 inch PCC Pavement.
Phase IV (GA Ramp East) includes new apron reconstruction consisting of 26,700 sys of 10 inch PCC Pavement.
This project includes the construction costs and construction administration professional fees. The design was completed utilizing local Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) funds and is not expected to be reimbursed with PFC funds.
Project Justification/Significant Contribution:
The existing apron pavement is severely cracked and broken and has a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating of Very Poor to Poor and is far beyond its useful life. There are many areas that are approaching complete failure and repair and maintenance of the pavement is beyond the administration's capabilities. The completion of this project will avoid potential failure that could result in damage to aircraft or the creation of Foreign Object Debris (FOD), thereby enhancing the safety of the Airport. Upon completion, this project will result with a pavement that will have an extended life exceeding 20 years.
C - 36
The terminal area has had several apron expansion projects in recent years. In between all these projects is a section of bituminous pavement that was last overlaid in 1994. This past rehabilitation project was designed to provide an extended life of six to ten years; fortunately, the pavement has now lasted 20 years. The last 10 years, the pavement has also been subjected to higher volumes of heavy aircraft than ever anticipated. This heavy traffic has paid a heavy toll on this pavement. The pavement is very poor and alligator cracking is dominant. Although GYY has a proactive crack sealing program, this pavement is getting to the point that it is difficult to seal these areas. Currently, traffic is down which provides an opportune time to reconstruct these pavements so as to not impact operations.
A portion of the general aviation apron pavement (Phase 1) was originally designed for small general aviation aircraft and abuts the existing T-Hangar area. The existing pavement section consists of approximately 4-5" of bituminous pavement on 6" of compacted aggregate. With the construction of the B-Coleman FBO Facility and Hangar, increased traffic from heavier aircraft will only accelerate the continued degradation of this pavement. This section along with the other sections has a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating of 32 to 57 which is Very Poor to Poor. These pavements need to be reconstructed in order to avoid potential failure that could result in damage to aircraft.
According to the Pavement Condition Report, Pavement sections 3005 (Terminal Ramp) and 3125 (FBO Ramp) had PCI range ratings of Very Poor, indicating intensive pavement rehabilitation is needed to maintain serviceability. Six pavement sections including: 170 (Twy A-4), 180 (Twy A-2), 205 (Twy B), 3030 (Ramp), 3105(FBO Ramp), and 3110 (FBO Ramp) had PCI range ratings of Poor, indicating that either major M&R is needed or that near-term maintenance needs may be extensive in order to maintain serviceability. The completion of this project will avoid potential failure that could result in damage to aircraft or the creation of Foreign Object Debris (FOD), thereby enhancing the safety of the Airport.
A Pavement Condition Report shows the pavement is ranked as the worst pavement on the Airport. Information provided in the Pavement Condition Report serves to further justify the need for this project as well as provide evidence that this project will enhance safety at the Airport.
Project Objective:
The project will prevent the formation of Foreign Object Damage (FOD) that could damage aircraft engines, potentially causing them to fail and endanger aircraft, operators, and passengers. While no FOD has yet been reported, the Pavement Condition Report indicates the likelihood of this occurring. Therefore, this project meets the PFC objective of preserving the safety of GYY's airfield as well as preserving the capacity of the terminal area and general aviation aircraft parking apron.

15 At this meeting we will walk through
the materials attached to the May 15th letter.
This includes the description of the projects, an
explanation of the need for the projects, and the
financial plan for the projects.
20 If there are any questions regarding
21 these items, please ask.
22 As stated in the letter, through a
1995 compact between the City, the City of Gary,
and the Gary board of directors, Gary has access to

a small percentage of PFC revenue collected at
O'Hare.|109|Pursuant to the compact, the Airport
Authority maintains a 12-member Compact board of
directors. The City and the City of Gary each
appoint five members, and the states of Indiana and
Illinois appoint one member each.|109|Therefore CDA is requesting PFC|10 9|authority to use O'Hare PFC revenues on a master
plan update and apron rehabilitation project at
Gary Airport.
12 We will now go through the
additional information provided in the airline
notification letter.
15 And first, before we do that, I
failed to mention, we have Steve Sandefur here from
NGC Corp. He will represent Gary with any
questions that you have on the projects; and also
Matt Ruffra from Ricondo & Associates, should you
have any questions on the PFC application process.
21 First I'll give the description of
the master plan, the amount of the PFC authority,
and then I'll go through the apron rehabilitation
project.

Source: ACAIS Database, Accessed May 15,2015
(iv) Reasons for Requesting that Carriers Identified in this Section Not be Reguired
to Collect the PFC: The number of passengers enplaned annually by this class of carriers represents fewer than one percent of total enplanements at O'Hare. The estimated annual PFC revenue from these carriers would be approximately $4,034 as compared to the estimated PFC revenue of $130,893,933 from all other carriers. In accordance with Section 158.11 of FAR Part 158, the City may request of the FAA in its application for authority to impose PFCs, and in its application for authority to use PFCs, that collection of PFCs by any class of air carriers or foreign air carriers not be required if the number of passengers enplaned by the carriers in this class constitutes no more than one percent ofthe total number of passengers enplaned annually at the airport at which the PFC is imposed. This is the case with the class of carriers identified herein.
This is the same class that was already approved for exemption by FAA (See June 28, 1993 Record of Decision, p.26). Information on known carriers belonging to the class has been updated to reflect the Department of Transportation (DOT) Air Carrier Activity Information System Report for calendar year 2013, the most recent report available to the City.

Re: ORD - Passenger Facility Charge Application
Dear Mr. Zonsius:
United Continental Holdings, Inc. ("United") appreciates the opportunity to comment on the referenced application to be filed by the City of Chicago - Chicago Department of Aviation ("CDA") to impose and use Passenger Facility Charges ("PFCs") under Title 14, CFR, Part 158 at Chicago O'Hare International Airport ("Airport").
United hereby submits its written Certification of Agreement/Disagreement as to those proposed projects referenced in the CDA's official notice dated August 1, 2014 and as presented and discussed at the September 5, 2014 consultation meeting under Application 14-27-C-00-ORD.
It is our understanding that PFC eligible projects, by statute, are those that preserve or enhance the safety, capacity, or security of the national transportation system; reduce airport noise or mitigate noise impacts; or enhance competition among air carriers. Further, we interpret the requirement that PFC-funded projects must qualify as AIP-eligible projects, mandating that PFC-funded projects be limited to those programs for which an immediate and justifiable need can be demonstrated or substantiated. Projects that cannot be justified based upon an immediate and justifiable need should be eliminated from the proposed PFC application and deferred for PFC consideration until such time as a need can be demonstrated
With this as background, United offers the following comments regarding the projects proposed for PFC funding by the CD A:

Subject: Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) Application 14-27-C-00-ORD Dear Mr. Zonsius:
Pursuantto 14 CFR Part 158, Section 158.23, this letter and attachment hereto shall serve as American Airlines' ("American") Certification of Agreement or Disagreement with respect to the projects included in the subject PFC application to be filed by the City of Chicago - Chicago Department of Aviation ("CDA").
PFC-eligible projects, by statute, are those that preserve or enhance the safety, capacity, or security of the national air transportation system, reduce airport noise or mitigate airport noise impacts, or enhance competition among air carriers. In addition, American interprets the regulations such that PFC-funded projects are to be limited to those programs for which a near term and justifiable need can be demonstrated. Accordingly, American Airlines' certification(s) to the proposed PFC program is guided by these principles.
Also, American notes that PFCs are available as an additional funding source for eligible airport projects, along with other funding sources, such as the Airport Improvement Program (AIP Program). American's certification of agreement on any specific project is conditioned on the CDA applying for AIP funding first (if eligible), with PFC funds used to fund the local share accordingly.
We look forward to working with the CDA in developing and maintaining airport facilities that will meet the needs of the traveling public and the air carriers serving Chicago O'Hare International Airport ("Airport").
Sincerely,

Re: Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) Application 15-27-C-00-ORD Chicago O'Hare International Airport (O'Hare) Gary/Chicago International Airport (Gary)
Dear Sirs,
LOT Polish Airlines S.A. (LOT) have been informed by the Chicago Department of Aviation / City of Chicago letter dated May 15th, 2015 that the City of Chicago intends to file an application to impose a Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) at O'Hare Airport in Chicago and use PFC revenue for two projects at Gary/Chicago International Airport (Gary). The projects at Gary have been described in an attachment to the above mentioned letter ( "Project Information: Application to Impose a PFC at O'Hare and use PFC Revenue for New Projects at Gary/Chicago International Airport").
Despite of the fact that both of the above mentioned airports forming the Chicago Airport System serve scheduled passenger traffic and have published relevant airport charges tariffs scheduled applicable for all carriers and passengers using the above mentioned airports, only the PFC collected at Chicago O'Hare would be used for a financial support for Gary projects. In addition, the several air carriers operating at Gary have been identified as not required to collect the PFC.
During the consultations LOT has been informed that, following PFC Regulation Part 158.13, the PFC revenue may be used for such projects as in case of Gary. LOT has also been informed that through the 1995 compact between the City, the City of Gary, and the Gary Board of Directors, Gary has access to a small percentage of PFC revenue collected at O'Hare and all of the necessary approvals by the FAA for the use of PFCs at Gary have been obtained by the City of Chicago and projects at Gary have been approved for PFC funding by the FAA.
C _ 7
With full respect to the regulations and procedures in force I kindly inform you that we are not sure whether in case of the above mentioned two Gary Projects, the charge (PFC) would be imposed on a non-discriminatory basis as the Chicago Midway and the Chicago Gary airports seem not to participate in the charge scheme.

Re: Proposed 14-27-C-00-ORD Application for Passenger Facility Changes (PFC) Dear Mr. Zonsius,
Pursuant to provisions of 14 CFR 158, this letter serves as Alaska Airlines written Certification of Agreement or Disagreement with the plan to impose and use PFC collections at Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD).
Alaska Airlines certification to the proposed PFC program at airports is guided by the following policy interpretation:
o PFC eligible projects are those that preserve or enhance safety, security, or
capacity, reduce airport noise or mitigate airport noise impacts, or enhance
competition among air carriers o PFC funds are collected in the form of a charge applied only to the passenger
tickets sold, and therefore PFCs should be used for supplemental CIP funding
to the extent that these revenues are proportionate to the passenger carriers'
allocable share of those project costs o PFCs are to be utilized to fund the local share after other funding sources such
as the Airport Improvement Program (AIP) have been sought o Alaska Airlines' interpretation of Part 158 is that projects funded by PFC
collections are to be restricted to those programs which a near term and
justifiable need can be demonstrated
Alaska Airlines' agreement, if any, is contingent upon the estimates, scope and description of the projects as presented. In addition, any agreement under this PFC consultation process is not to be construed as approval or disapproval of these or related projects or financing plans under any present or future agreement with the Chicago O'Hare International Airport. Any agreement under this PFC consultation process shall not be construed as an invalidation of any rights under any Use or Lease agreements to review and/or approve these projects and financing related to these projects.
The statements below are in response to the materials that were sent to the airlines on May 15, 2015, and discussed at the June 16th, 2015 consultation meeting:

Response to Air Carrier Comments
On August 1, 2014, and May 15, 2015, the City published written notices and opportunities for air carrier comment on this proposed application under 14 CFR § 158.23. Airlines not providing comment signify a Certification of Agreement. If a carrier fails to provide the public agency with timely acknowledgement of the notice or timely certification of agreement or disagreement with the proposed project, the carrier is considered to have certified its agreement under 14 CFR § 158.23(c)3.
Air Carrier Response to September 5, 2014 Consultation
Two carriers (United and American) returned a Certification of Agreement after the Air Carrier Consultation Meeting, held September 5, 2014. United and American Airlines provided comment along with the Certification of Agreement:
United/American Comment: "We submit that PFC funding for this project should be equitably split between Chicago O'Hare (ORD) and Chicago Midway (MDW) airports."
City Response: There is no requirement under PFC regulations or the Chicago-Gary Compact that an equitable share of PFCs generated at Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW) be used for the projects in this Application. At this time, the Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA) does not intend to pursue PFC authority to use MDW PFCs for an allocable portion of these projects. If, however, CDA does apply in the future for PFC authority for a share of these projects at MDW, the authority at ORD will concurrently be amended downward by the appropriate amount.
Air Carrier Response to Second Consultation held June 16, 2015
After the Air Carrier Consultation Meeting held June 16, 2015, two additional carriers provided letters. Alaska Airlines provided a letter of agreement and LOT Polish Airlines stated in a letter that they cannot support the project.
LOT Polish Comment: "With full respect to the regulations and procedures in force I kindly inform you that we are not sure whether in case of the two Gary Projects, the charge (PFC) would be imposed on a non-discriminatory basis as the Chicago Midway and the Chicago Gary airports seem not to participate in the charge scheme."
City Response:
The projects included in this PFC Application are eligible to receive PFC collect and use authority for the following reasons:
PFC Regulation Part 158.13 states:
"PFC revenue, including any interest earned after such revenue has been remitted to a public agency, may be used only to finance the allowable costs of approved projects at any airport the public agency controls."
Through a 1995 compact between the City, the City of Gary, and the Gary Board of Directors (the Compact), Gary has access to a small percentage of PFC revenue collected at O'Hare. Pursuant to the
C . 11
Compact, the Gary Regional Airport Authority maintains a 12-member Compact board of directors (separate from the Airport Board), the City and the City of Gary each appoint five members and the states of Indiana and Illinois appoint one member each.
Section 25-10(b) of the Compact states:
"Within 180 days following the Effective Date, the City of Chicago shall file a passenger facility charge application with the FAA requesting authorization to use a portion of the passenger facility charges collected by the City of Chicago at the Chicago Airports for purposes of financing any or all of the Capital Projects described in Exhibit B to this Compact, and annually for eligible passenger facility charge projects as may from time to time in the future become part of Gary Regional Airport's Capital Plan as approved by the Board, which Capital Projects are compatible with Gary Regional Airport's function as a reliever airport for the Chicago Airports. Following receipt of all necessary approvals from the FAA, the City of Chicago shall have the exclusive power to direct the planning, design, construction, financing and implementation of any such Capital Projects to be financed with passenger facility charges remitted to the City of Chicago in such fiscal years. Subject to FAA approval, the amount of passenger facility charges used by the City of Chicago for Capital Projects at the Gary Regional Airport in any fiscal year pursuant to this subsection (b) shall not exceed one and one-half percent of the aggregate passenger facility charges collected by the City of Chicago at the Chicago Airports. The City of Chicago shall have all necessary powers to satisfy the passenger facility charge assurances made to the FAA in connection with any such applications. The City of Gary and the Gary Regional Airport Authority shall enter into all agreements and assurances and take all other actions that may be necessary to obtain and maintain FAA approval for the use of passenger facility charges as contemplated in this subsection (b).
All of the necessary approvals by the FAA for the use of PFCs at GYY have been obtained by the City of Chicago, and projects at GYY have been approved for PFC funding at O'Hare, which did not include PFC Revenue generated by Chicago Midway, by the FAA in the following PFC Applications:
01-12-C-00-ORD
03-15-C-00-ORD
06-19-C-00-ORD
Therefore, PFCs are available to fund the Capital Projects included in this application up to an annual amount equal to 1.5 percent of the total PFC Revenues from the Chicago Airports and up to a total amount equal to the amount shown in the financing plan for each project included in the notification letter dated May 15, 2015.
There is no requirement under PFC regulations or the Chicago-Gary Compact that an equitable share of PFCs generated at Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW) be used for the projects in this Application. At this time, the Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA) does not intend to pursue PFC authority to use MDW PFCs for an allocable portion of these projects. If, however, CDA does apply in the future for PFC authority for a share of these projects at MDW, the authority at ORD will concurrently be amended downward by the appropriate amount.
Regarding nondiscriminatory rate-setting, PFC Regulation Part 158.29(a) states:
(a) Authority to impose a PFC.
(1) An application to impose a PFC will be approved in whole or in part only after a determination that -
E -12
The amount and duration of the PFC will not result in revenue that exceeds amounts
necessary to finance the project;
The project will achieve the objectives and criteria set forth in §158.15 except for those projects approved under §158.18;
If a PFC level above $3 is being approved, the project meets the criteria set forth in §158.17;
The collection process, including any request by the public agency not to require a class of carriers to collect PFCs, is reasonable, not arbitrary, nondiscriminatory, and otherwise in compliance with the law;
The public agency has not been found to be in violation of 49 U.S.C. 47524 and 47526;
The public agency has not been found to be in violation of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b)
governing the use of airport revenue;
If the public agency has not applied for authority to use PFC revenue, a finding that
there are alternative uses of the PFC revenue to ensure that such revenue will be used on approved projects; and
If applicable, the public agency has submitted a competition plan in accordance with §158.19.
The PFC charged on PFC-eligible enplanements at the Airport meets the criteria of nondiscriminatory in that all carriers at the Airport, other than the class of carriers that is excluded, collects the $4.50 PFC on all PFC-eligible enplanements
Therefore, the projects included in this PFC Application are PFC-eligible under Federal PFC Regulations and PFCs are included in the financial plan for these projects based on the authority and reasoning outlined above.

Appendix E. Distress Identification
This chapter describes pavement distress types commonly identified during airport PCI inspections.
Rigid Pavement Distress
Longitudinal, Transverse & Diagonal Cracking
LTD cracking is often a result of load or temperature deformations. External loads cause flexure. Temperature changes can cause curling. When any of these stresses exceed the slab strength, cracking occurs.
LTD cracking is recorded at low, medium, or high severity, depending on the width of crack opening and degree of deterioration.
At low severity, a crack is less than 1/8 inch wide with little spalling, and no corrective action is indicated. At medium severity, LTD cracks can be up to 1 inch wide with moderate spalling and should be repaired using procedures similar to joint sealing. At high severity, cracks exceed 1 inch in width and may be severely spalled. High-severity LTD cracking is evidence of serious load failure, and correction may require patching or slab replacement. If distress occurs in several adjacent slabs at medium or high severity, major rehabilitation of that area is indicated.
A slab divided into four or more pieces is said to be "divided" or "shattered." Shattered slab is a separate distress category and indicates a significant structural failure. A shattered slab has lost its ability to distribute loads. Shattered slabs are rated in three severities, but the recommended action in any case is slab replacement.

Shrinkage Cracking
Shrinkage cracks are small, non-working cracks visible at the pavement surface but not penetrating the full depth of concrete. Shrinkage cracks most commonly occur shortly after construction due to concrete shrinkage during the curing process.
Shrinkage cracks are usually so small that they are not visible until staining or loss of material at crack edges begins to take place. Shrinkage cracks do not represent structural weakness, and no corrective action is prescribed.
Durability Cracking
Durability cracking (D-cracking) is caused by environmental factors, the most common being freeze/thaw. D-cracking usually appears as either a pattern of hairline cracks running parallel to a joint or crack, or in a corner, where water tends to collect. D-cracking eventually leads to disintegration of the pavement, creating foreign object damage (FOD) potential.
At low severity, D-cracking is evident, but no disintegration has occurred. Medium severity is evident over a significant area of the slab, and some disintegration and FOD potential exist. High-severity D-cracking is evidenced by extensive cracking with loose and missing pieces and significant FOD potential.

Joint Spall and Corner Spall
Spalls at slab joints and corners are caused by excessive internal stress in the pavement. Spalls occur when these stresses exceed the shear strength of the concrete.
Spalling usually results from thermal expansion during hot weather when slabs push and expand against one another. If the joints are filled with incompressible material, such as sand, stresses can become severe, causing spalls. Spalling can be reduced significantly by maintenance of joint sealant.
Spall repair requires patching. The extent and severity of spalling suggests the appropriate action. At low severity, spalled concrete remains securely in place in the slab. A low-severity spall should be monitored closely for further deterioration and should be patched when spalled particles become loose, or during the next scheduled patching activity. Medium-and high-severity spalls should be repaired immediately to prevent FOD. Ifthe pavement can be restored to serviceable condition, spalls should be patched for long-term service. Ifthe pavement is beyond repair, temporary patching should be considered to control FOD.

Patches, Large and Small
Large and small patches, by PCI inspection criteria, are distress conditions. Patches indicate deterioration and aging of pavement that contributes to shortened service life. However, patching also indicates that pavement is being maintained.
A patch that is performing well and shows no outward distress is recorded at low severity, and no corrective action is required. Medium-severity patches are serviceable but are beginning to deteriorate. Maintenance or replacement is indicated. At high severity, replacement is indicated.
By definition, small patches are smaller than 5 square feet in surface area, and they usually result from spall repair at slab joints and corners.
Large patches also may be the result of spall repair, but they often indicate more serious deficiencies, such as corner breaks or other full-depth failure smaller than panel size.

Joint Seal Damage
When joint sealant is in perfect condition (no damage), there is no distress.
At low severity, at least 10 percent ofthe sealant is debonded but still in contact with the joint edges. Medium-severity joint seal damage is recorded when at least 10 percent of the sealant has visible gaps smaller than 1/8 inch and is an indicator that replacement should be programmed as soon as is practical. In the meantime, aggressive inspection and sustaining maintenance is recommended to minimize subsurface damage from moisture penetration. At high severity, visible gaps exceed 1/8 inch, and the amount and degree of joint seal damage typically requires complete removal and replacement ofthe existing sealant.
On serviceable pavement, deteriorated joint sealant should be repaired or replaced to preserve pavement and subgrade integrity and prolong service life. The issue is not so clear-cut with unserviceable pavement. Pavement that can be restored to serviceable condition by maintenance activities such as patching and joint seal repair, or by slab replacement, should be so maintained as long as the process is cost-effective. However, when age and condition preclude economical return to serviceable condition by such means, joint seal repair would no longer be cost-effective and should be suspended except for an interim maintenance program to control FOD potential.

Flexible Pavement Distress
Longitudinal & Trans. Cracking
L&T cracks are caused by age, construction, and subsurface conditions. Age-related cracking occurs as oxidizing pavement loses components to the atmosphere and becomes more brittle. Consistent application of seal coats can help to prevent age-related cracks.
Construction-related cracking often develops along paving joints. Ensuring that joints are made when both sides are still hot, and near the same temperature, is one of the best ways to mitigate this potential problem.
Seasonal movement caused by changes in subsurface moisture or temperature differences also can cause pavement cracking. Asphalt pavement placed over a PCC pavement or cement stabilized base course may evidence reflective cracking from the underlying material. Wheel loads do not cause L&T cracks, although traffic may worsen their condition.
Low-severity L&T cracks are less than % inch wide, or if sealed with suitable filler material in satisfactory condition can be any width less than 3 inches, if they are not spalled. Maintenance usually is not indicated for low-severity cracking. Moderately spalled cracks and cracks wider than % inch which are not satisfactorily sealed are at medium severity. Medium-severity cracks should be sealed with a high-quality crack filling material. Severely spalled cracks and cracks wider than 3 inches are at high severity. High-severity L&T cracks normally require patching.
Pavement Condition Report, Gary/Chicago International Airport
Alligator Cracking
Alligator cracks are a series of interconnected load-related cracks caused by fatigue of the asphalt surface. Alligator cracking is a significant structural distress and develops only in places subject to traffic loads. These cracks typically initiate at the bottom of the asphalt layer and propagate upward. Once a fatigue crack is visible at the surface, significant damage has already occurred.
At low severity, alligator cracks are evidenced by a series of parallel hairline cracks (usually in a wheel path). Medium-severity alligator cracking is a well-defined pattern of interconnected cracks, and some spalling may be present. High-severity alligator cracks have lost aggregate interlock between adjacent pieces, and the cracks may be severely spalled with FOD potential. Most likely, the pieces will move freely under traffic.
Alligator cracking is a serious structural failure that cannot be repaired with sealant. The proper repair is patching.

Raveling/Weathering
Raveling and weathering are the wearing away ofthe pavement surface. Failure can be caused by the dislodging of aggregate particles or the loss of asphalt binder. These distresses are usually evident over large areas and may indicate that the asphalt binder has hardened significantly.
Raveling is the loss of coarse aggregate, weathering is the loss of fine aggregate or binder.
Raveling: At low severity, 5 to 20 coarse aggregate particles are missing per square yard. Medium severity is defined by 20 to 40 missing coarse aggregate particles per square yard. At high severity, more than 40 coarse aggregate particles are missing per square yard, and the top layer of aggregate has eroded away.
Weathering: At low severity, edges of coarse aggregate are exposed less than 1 mm. At medium severity, loss of fine aggregate is noticeable and edges of coarse aggregate are exposed up to 6 mm (1/4 inch). High severity weathering has edges of coarse aggregate exposed > 6 mm, with considerable loss of fine aggregate matrix and potential for loss of coarse aggregate.
Rutting
Ruts are localized areas of pavement having elevations lower than the surrounding sections.
Rutting is due to base and subgrade consolidation caused by excessive wheel loads or poor compaction. Ruts indicate structural failure and can cause hydroplaning.
At low severity, ruts have an average depth of % to Vi inches. At medium severity, ruts have an average depth of Vi to 1 inch. At high severity, ruts have an average depth greater than 1 inch. Patching is the appropriate repair for ruts.

ARTICLE 5. AUTHORITY, PURPOSE AND FINDINGS
Section 5-1. Authority. The City of Chicago is entering into this Compact pursuant to (i) the provisions of the Illinois Act, (ii) the City's home rule powers under the Illinois Constitution of 1970, (iii) Article 7, Section 10 of the Illinois Constitution of 1970, (iv) the Intergovernmental Cooperation Act, 5 ILCS 220/1 et seq., as amended, (v) 49 USCS §44502(e), as amended and (vi) an ordinance adopted by the City Council of the City of Chicago on|1010|

April 15, 1995. The City of Gary is entering into this Compact pursuant to (i) the Indiana Act, (ii) IC 8-22-5-1, as amended, as in effect on the Effective Date, (iii) 49 USCS § 44502(e), as amended, and (iv) an ordinance adopted by the Common Council ofthe City of Gary on April 13, 1995:
Section 5-5. Purpose of Compact. The purpose of this Compact is to create the Authority as an interstate body politic and corporate under this Compact with the powers set forth in this Compact to jointly oversee and support the Existing Airports as set forth in this Compact, to jointly evaluate the Bi-State Region's need for additional Airport capacity, to jointly coordinate and plan for the continued development, enhancement and operation of the Existing Airports and the development of any New Regional Airport serving the Bi-State Region and to assure the continued autonomous management and operation by the City of Chicago of the Chicago Airports and the continued autonomous management and operation by the City of Gary through the Gary Regional Airport Authority of the Gary Regional Airport.
Section 5-10. Findings.
(aj The primary air trade area served by the Existing Airports consists of eight counties in Illinois (Cook. DuPage. Grundy. Kane. Kendall, Lake, McHenry and Will) and two counties (Lake and Porter) in Indiana (the "Bi-State Region"). The Chicago Airports and the Gary Regional Airport are the major airports serving the Bi-State Region and comprise the local airport system. Gary Regional Airport functions, and is designated, as a reliever airport for the Chicago Airports.
(b) Extensive, reliable air transportation service linking the Bi-State Region to the rest of the nation and the world, enabling the Bi-State Region to participate fully in the national and global economies, is critical to the continued economic development of the Bi-State Region. The coordinated development ofthe local airport system, and any new airports that may be built as part of the local airport system, is essential to provide facilities to meet this demand efficiently and effectively. Failure to establish a mechanism to coordinate the planning and development of|1010|
F - AQ
the local airport system could result in the inability to make capacity improvements where they can be implemented^ most efficiently to alleviate congestion and meet demand, in duplicative development, or in the inability to meet the long-term air service needs of the Bi-State Region. The best way to ensure the necessary coordination of further airport development, while recognizing the significant interests ofthe local governmental bodies, is the creation of a bi-state regional authority to oversee future development of the local airport system, while allowing the continued operation ofthe Existing Airports by the respective local government entities that now operate them.
(c) The City of Chicago is the owner, operator and manager of the Chicago Airports. Through the efforts and leadership of the City of Chicago, Chicago - O'Hare International Airport is the busiest airport in the world. The Chicago Airports serve a critical role in the nation's air transportation system, and provide significant economic benefits to the Bi-State Region. The City of Chicago has committed significant resources to the development and operation of the Chicago Airports and views the Chicago Airports as a significant municipal asset. It is in the best interests of the City of Chicago and a public purpose, which this Compact is intended to further, to ensure that (i) the Chicago Airports, retain their pre-eminent position as an engine for economic growth and development of the City of Chicago, (ii) the City of Chicago's investment in the Chicago Airports, and ancillary and intangible benefits accruing to the City, of Chicago and its citizens from the Chicago Airports be protected by the continued operation of the Chicago Airports by the City of Chicago and (iii) the local airport system development policy be responsive to the concerns of the City of Chicago and the City of Gary and not be promulgated by any Person not experienced in the affairs of the Chicago Airports and the Gary Regional Airport. The City of Gary benefits from the continued operation of the Chicago Airports by the City of Chicago. By establishing the Authority pursuant to this Compact, the mutual aviation interests of both the City of Chicago and the City of Gary are best served.

F - RC)
The City of Gary controls Gary Regional Airport through the Gary Regional Airport Authority. The Gary Regional Airport Authority owns and operates Gary Regional Airport. Gary Regional Airport has various capital development needs and the City of Gary and the Gary Regional Airport Authority have insufficient resources to fund the Capital Projects needed to enable Gary Regional Airport to function effectively as a reliever airport for the Chicago Airports. Development of Gary Regional Airport can help meet the air transportation needs of the Bi-State Region. Coordination by the Signatories of the development of Gary Regional Airport jointly with the development of the Chicago Airports will promote the timely implementation of capacity improvements to meet the air service needs of the Bi-State Region. Development of Gary Regional Airport will provide substantial benefits to the Chicago Airports by alleviating congestion at Chicago-O'Hare International Airport, reducing operational delays and associated costs for air carriers and air travelers arid promoting the efficient use of the local airport system. This Compact will facilitate the development of the facilities and operations at Gary Regional Airport in coordination with the Chicago Airports.
Substantial benefits will accrue to the City of Chicago and to the City of Gary, and to their .citizens, as the result of the provisions of this Compact that provide for the coordination of airport development through the Authority and the funding of certain airport development, while allowing the continued management and operation of the Existing Airports in the local airport system by the respective Signatories
Subject to the powers specifically granted to the Authority under this Compact, the City of Chicago shall continue to manage and operate the Chicago Airports in accordance with the terms of the Existing Airport Agreements, and the City of Gary through the Gary Regional Airport Authority shall continue to manage and operate the Gary Regional Airport, both on the coordinated basis set forth in this Compact. This Compact also directs the Signatories, through the Authority, to plan for any future additional airport capacity needed on a basis consistent with the interests of each Signatory. The establishment of the Authority and the|1010|
maintenance ofthe existing governance structures for the Existing Airports on a basis consistent with the terms of this Compact will provide for the most efficient and effective method of evaluating the need for a new Airport serving the Bi-State Region, and for planning for the joint development of any such Airport on a coordinated basis supported by a bi-state consensus.
The City of Chicago has recently completed the refinancing of the Chicago Skyway and has undertaken a major capital improvement program for that toll bridge and highway facility. The Chicago Skyway serves the Bi-State Region as a vital and effective ground transportation link between Chicago and Gary and the Chicago Airports and Gary Regional Airport.
Pursuant to authority provided by federal and state law, the City of Chicago and the City of Gary are creating the Authority as an interstate body politic and corporate .under the Compact for the purposes set forth herein as a means of assuring the continued efficient management, operation and development, of the Existing Airports by the Signatories and for coordinating, evaluating and planning for the local airport system's needs, including the need for any new Airport serving the Bi-State Region.
. (i)... The City.of.Chicago, has covenanted with the.holders of its airport revenue bonds that unless certain conditions have been met. it will not permit a Transfer of Chicago-O'Hare International Airport or Chicago Midway Airport. Nothing in this Compact is intended to effect a Transfer of the Chicago Airports or Gary Regional Airport.

Indiana Act, as in effect on the Effective Date, such approval shall be obtained.

Development Plan for Gary Regional Airport
The City of Chicago commits, to the extent permitted by law, to utilize its best efforts to secure for the Gary Regional Airport the economic development benefits contemplated by the Development Plan For Gary Regional Airport. The City of Chicago recognizes the potential significant economic benefits to both the City of Chicago and the City of Gary of a coordinated effort to maximize the utilization of Gary Regional Airport as the Federal Aviation Administration's designated reliever airport for Chicago's Midway Airport. To that end the City of Chicago commits to contact and provide appropriate inducements to air cargo transport companies currently operating within its airport system to encourage their utilization of the Gary Regional Airport.
The City of Chicago commits to conduct a market analysis to survey cargo and freight forwarding businesses to determine the need and interest pf such in the utilization of Gary Regional Airport and will include the Gary Regional Airport in the City of Chicago's marketing program designed to secure greater utilization Pf its airports for cargo, freight forwarding, general aviation and additional commercial air carrier service. This commitment recognizes the Gary Regional Airport's status as a Foreign Trade Zone and the marketing opportunities inherent therein as an inducement to the utilization of Gary Regional Airport.
The City of Chicago further commits that prior to the contemplated closure of Meigs Field in September of 1996 that it will contact and encourage the users of Meigs Field to relocate their operations to the Gary Regional Airport.
The City of Chicago recognizes that the current surface transportation infrastructure provides a convenient network linking the Gary Regional Airport to the City of Chicago. The City of Chicago, as owner of the Chicago Skyway, commits to market the utilization of the Chicago Skyway through appropriate inducements to commercial users of Gary Regional Airport.
The City of Chicago recognizes that the maximization of the utilization of the Gary Regional Airport is in part dependent upon its continued maintenance and development and to secure the benefits of the Development Plan for the Gary Regional Airport appropriate legislation and funding sources will be required. The City of Chicago commits its federal and state lobbying resources to work with and on behalf of the City of Gary to secure the enactment of beneficial legislation and appropriations from available federal and state sources necessary for the implementation ofthe Development Plan for Gary Regional Airport.
ln addition:
1. The City of Chicago and the City of Gary shall cooperate in developing Gary Regional Airport as a reliever airport for the Chicago Airports and to encourage the growth of corporate general aviation and cargo operations at Gary Regional Airport. To that end, the
46
Signatories intend that Gary Regional Airport operations be coordinated with the Chicago Airport system.
The Signatories affirm their support for the pending master plan process for Gary Regional Airport and do not intend for anything in this Compact to prejudice federal planning funds for Gary Regional Airport.
The Signatories shall develop a marketing program and strategies to increase use of Gary Regional Airport as a reliever, corporate general aviation and air cargo/freight forwarding facility. New or increased air cargo operations in the Chicago area will be encouraged to use Gary Regional Airport, along with the Chicago Airports. The marketing program will be developed in collaboration with the Gary Regional Airport Authority and the City of Gary.
The Signatories shall develop a marketing program and strategy to increase use of Gary Regional Airport by corporate general aviation aircraft in connection with trade events at McCormick Place and related facilities.
The City of Chicago shall provide technical support (including assistance in obtaining federal master planning and construction grants) for the development of Gary Regional Airport as a reliever, cargo and corporate general aviation facility serving the needs of northeast Illinois and northwest Indiana (including the southern sections of the Chicago metropolitan area) to the extent compatible with system-wide planning and preexisting legal obligations.
To the extent that airport operations are shifted within the system, and to the extent compatible with system-wide planning and preexisting legal obligations, the City of Chicago will encourage those operations to shift to Gary Regional Airport.
The Signatories intend that Gary Regional Airport should remain open as a cargo, corporate general aviation and reliever airport consistent with the master plans for Gary Regional Airport and the Chicago Airports.
During the master planning process for any New Regional Airport, the Authority will assist the City of Gary in determining the highest and best use for Gary Regional Airport after the New Regional Airport opens, consistent with Gary Regional Airport Phase II master plan. The Authority will consider participating in the redevelopment of Gary Regional Airport to the extent that in the judgment of the Authority, such redevelopment is consistent with the mission ofthe Authority.
To the extent practicable, during construction of a New Regional Airport, the Authority will use Gary Regional Airport as the staging facility for the delivery and storage of construction equipment and materials and will use the site for any construction-related offices if such uses are consistent with the phase II master plan for Gary Regional Airport and the construction program for a New Regional Airport.
To the extent permitted by law, the Authority's purchasing policies for the construction and operation of a New Regional Airport will encourage use of suppliers of goods

RE: Categorical Exclusion for Apron Rehabilitation Dear Airport Sponsor:
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the project to rehabilitate the apron at the Gary/Chicago International Airport has been approved under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The project includes full depth rehabilitation of the existing 101,500 square yard apron.
Under NEPA, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is required to take into account environmental consideration when authorizing or approving major actions. Based on the review of the action described above, the undersigned has determined that the proposed actions are specifically categorically excluded from further NEPA review. They fall within the specific items identified in FA A Order 1050.1E, Paragraph 31 Oe (runways and aprons), and are normally categorically excluded from the requirement for a formal environmental assessment.
This transmittal is a notification that this project has been reviewed and cleared only for purposes of NEPA review. This is not a notice of final project approval or funding.
Please contact me at (847) 294-7364 with any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Bobb A. Beauchantp Environmental Program Manager
