Provide Airport facilities and services to ma x imize the float plane facility and land lease activities.
Functions & Responsibilities
Airport Land is the real estate deeded to the City of Kenai by the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) in 1963. The acquisition gave the City title to nearly 2,000 acres . Most of the land is located
in the business district surrounding the Airport.
The Float Plane Basin encompasses a 4,500 foot water runway for landing and take-off
operations and a separate water lane for taxiing with parking slips. A major expansion of the
landing channel was started in 2006 and competed in fall of 2007. Separate tie-down areas are
available for private and commercial users and a 24 hr. self-fueling station is maintained by the
airport at the basin. Transient parking and camping spots are available. Current KMC code
prohibits the collection of landing fees for float planes ; therefore, the only income from this area
is from monthly and daily aircraft parking fees. The basin is closed to all operations during winter
months.
Effective July 1, 2018, an arrangement was memorialized between the General Fund and Airport
Fund to operate and maintain the Kenai Animal Shelter.

Future Considerations
Continuing demand use of the float plane facilities at the Kenai Municipal A irport is generating the
need for the im provements on the airfield . T he creation of lease lots next to the float plane basin
wou ld support expansion of air ta x i/charter development that operates from both float and
wheeled aircraft. An application was submitted to the FAA in October 2018 to consider the Float
Plane Basin -Phase One project for supplemental mon ies . Development costs are estimated at
$3.1 million . This project would construct lease lots for wheel and float plane operations.

Preserving History
I have begun the process of interviewing Joanna Hollier
in order to record the history of air service to and from
Kenai. Joanna was involved in air service from the 1940s
and off and on for many years. One never knows where
an interview will go and what stories may come about,
but part of what will be learned is how the airport grew
and changed in the decades since she arrived to be a part
of the story.
INSIDE THIS ISSUE:
The following pages contain photos that I gleaned from
the Facebook website "A Work in Progress-Growing up
on the Kenai". Many people post photos on this site and
it is an endless source of history of Kenai, Soldotna,
Sterling, Kasilof, and other communities on the Kenai
Peninsula. The group has been organizing for several
years and are working towards producing a book that I
have long believed would be a wonderful sequel to "Once
Upon the Kenai".

Dear Airport Sponsor:
Office of Airports Safety and Standards 800 Independence Ave., SW
Washington, DC 20591
This letter supp lements the FAA's July 19, 20 18 , letter distributed to all airport sponsors, a copy
of which is attached for your reference. The FAA understands the airports authorities' safety and
security concerns relative to malicious or errant use of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS)
especially in light of events at Gatwick. We share this concern. Accordingly, this letter provides
additional information useful to airport operators interested in evaluating, demonstrating or
otherwise installing UAS detection systems or who already have d etection systems on or near
their airports . It also provides information regarding the prohibition on non-federal use of
countermeasure or mitigation technologies (generally referred to as counter-DAS or C-UAS) at
or around airports. FAA currently does not support the usage of C-UAS systems, which include
active interdiction capabilities, by any entities other than the federal departments with explicit
statutory authority to use this technology.
To assist airport sponsors, I am providing the following informational documents :
• Attachment 1: July 19, 2018, Letter From FAA Office of Airports on Guidance on Use of
Counter UAS Systems at Airports.
• Attachment 2 : The FAA's answers to some frequently asked questions regarding UAS
detection and countermeasure/mitigation systems and technologies.
• Attachment 3: Technical questions and considerations FAA has u sed to assess the
technical readiness level ofUAS detection technologies, as it may also be helpful to
airport operators.
Entities seeking to evaluate or deploy UAS detectio n systems should be aware the evaluation or
deployment of such systems, even systems that are marketed as passive detection systems , may
implicate provisions oflaw (such as title 18 of the United States Code) on which the FAA cannot
authoritatively opine. Therefore, the FAA cannot confirm the legality of any UAS detection
system. An entity considering installing a UAS detection system may wish to seek system-
specific and site-specific guidance from its legal counsel and/or the appropriate authorities.
Page 100 of 126
Turning to aviation laws, the installation or deployment ofUAS detection systems may implicate
requirements under 49 U.S.C . § 44718, as implemented by 14 CFR part 77. Entities proposing
construction or alteration of existing structures in the vicinity of an airport must file notice with
the FAA. See also , FAA Order 7400.2M, Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters (February
28 , 2019). The required notice allows the FAA to conduct an aeronautical study of the potential
for the height of a proposed structure and any electromagnetic broadcast signals that create a
hazard to air navigation, including interference with aircraft and navigational aids.
Moreover, the installation or deployment ofUAS detection systems by sponsors of commercial
service airports may also implicate other regulatory requirements under title 14 of the Code of
Federal Regulations. Holders of Airport Operating Certificates issued under 14 CFR Part 139
must protect navigational aids. See 14 CFR § 139.333 . Commercial service airport operators may
also need to update the contents of their airport certification manuals to include operating
procedures for the use of a UAS detection system. See 14 CFR § 139.203.
Finally, federally obligated airports may need to assure the installation or deployment of a UAS
detection system is consistent with applicable grant assurance obligations. Grant Assurance 20,
Hazard Removal and Mitigation, requires airport sponsors to take appropriate action to assure
that such terminal airspace as is required to protect operations to the airport will be adequately
cleared and protected by mitigating existing airport hazards and preventing future hazards. Grant
Assurance 29, Airport Layout Plan requires an airport sponsor to maintain an up-to-date Airport
Layout Plan showing airport facilities and structures.
Coordination prior to the installation and/or deployment of UAS detection systems enables the
FAA to provide technical assistance regarding regulatory and grant assurance compliance.
Further, the operational use of UAS detection systems may provoke response actions that disrupt
air traffic operations at your airport or otherwise introduce undesirable safety and efficiency
impacts. These potential second-order effects can be effectively addressed through risk-based
procedures coordinated with the FAA.
In addition to ongoing near-term work to provide airport sponsors with supplemental information
regarding the use ofUAS detection systems, the U.S. Government is working to develop the
federal response to a persistent UAS disruption at a major airport. Additional information will be
provided on this interagency effort in the near future along with opportunities for feedback and
collaboration. The FAA also expects to supplement this letter with additional information related
to UAS detection system coordination as we refine our processes and procedures for safe UAS
detection system use at or around airports.
For assistance with questions about UAS detection system demonstrations, evaluations,
installation or deployment at airports, please contact Jim Patterson at 609-485-4989.

Dear Airport Sponsor:
Office of Airports Safety and Standards 800 Independence Ave., SW
Washington, DC 2059 J
This supplements the FAA's October 26 , 2016, letter distributed to all airport sponsors, a copy of
which is enclosed for your reference. This letter provides additional guidance concerning airport
interest in evaluating, demonstrating or otherwise deploying unmanned aircraft systems (UAS)
detection and countermeasures technology ("counter-VAS") at airports.
The FAA is working to fully integrate VAS into the National Airspace System (NAS) in a safe
and secure manner. We are mindful that while VAS technology offers tremendous benefits to
our national economy and society, the potential for misuse of this technology poses unique
security challenges, particularly in airport environments. We recognize some airports may be
interested in researching, evaluating, or deploying UAS detection or other counter-VAS
capabilities on or near airports; however, a number of significant safety implications and
practical issues, as well as legal restrictions, exist.
First, Section 2206 of Public Law 114-190, the FAA Extension, Safety, and Security Act of 2016
(July 15, 2016), required the FAA to evaluate detection technology at airports. The FAA
completed a Section 2206 pilot program carried out under Cooperative Research and
Development Agreements (CRDAs) with UAS detection technology manufacturers. The pilot
program focused on evaluating certain technology solutions for detecting VAS on and in the
vicinity of airports. The FAA did not evaluate countermeasure capabilities in light of the safety
implications, operational impacts, and legal constraints discussed further in this letter. The FAA
partnered with the Departments of Homeland Security, Defense, and Justice, as well as other
Federal Agencies for evaluating detection and countermeasure capabilities. From February 2016
through December 2017, the FAA and our partner agencies assessed or observed U AS detection
technologies operating at several domestic airports in Atlantic City, New York City, Denver, and
Dallas-Fort Worth.
Through these efforts, we learned the airport environment presents a number of unique
challenges to the use of technologies available for civil use. The low technical readiness of the
systems, combined with a multitude of other factors , such as geography, interference, location of
majority of reported UAS sightings, and cost of deployment and operation, demonstrate this
Page 103 of 126
technology is not ready for use in domestic civil airport environments. Jn particular, some of the
FAA's significant findings and recommendations include-
• Airport environments had numerous sources of potential interference--more than anticipated.
High radio spectrum congestion in these environments made detection more difficult and, in
some instances, not possible.
• Certain aircraft operational states (e.g., hovering) and the degree of flight autonomy also
limit detection. A high level of manpower is required to operate equipment and discern false
positives such as when a detection system may falsely identify another moving object as a
UAS.
• UAS detection systems should be developed so they do not adversely impact or interfere with
safe airport operations, air traffic control and other air navigation services, or the safe and
efficient operation of the NAS. They should also work with existing airport systems,
processes, procedures, and technologies without modification of current infrastructure.
• The primary factor in determining the feasibility of installing a permanent system at an
airport is the number of sensors needed to achieve the desired airspace coverage. Because
the coverage volume depends on the unique characteristics and requirements of each airport
and the type of system, the number of sensors will vary . The coverage distance for many
types of detection technologies also constrains the efficacy of such systems in identifying the
locations ofUAS.
• Deploying assets in an environment owned by many entities could also make UAS detection
systems a challenging solution to acquire and deploy. Overall, costs are prohibitive where
higher levels of redundant coverage are required. An additional and critical component of
this finding is that technology rapidly becomes obsolete upon installation as UAS technology
is rapidly changing.
In addition to these findings and recommendations relative to detection system capabilities, the
FAA does not endorse or advocate for the use of countermeasures in the airport environment
given the likely resulting impact on the safety and efficiency of the NAS. Further, successful
mitigation (using, for example, electronic countermeasure capabilities) is reliant on accurate
detection. Therefore, the use of countermeasure technology and the potential response of the
targeted UAS when engaged could introduce greater hazards to the NAS than the UAS-based
hazard it is intended to mitigate. The FAA expects other actions, such as implementation of
UAS remote identification requirements, to be more effective and cost-efficient to address the
concern related to non-compliant UAS operations on and around airports.
Remote identification for UAS would enable our security and law enforcement partners to make
a more informed determination about whether a particular UAS presents an immediate security
threat at a given location and to locate the operator of the suspect UAS. The FAA has initiated
rulemaking and is working to develop the policies necessary to implement remote identification
requirements. In addition, the FAA is rolling out the Low Altitude Authorization and
2
Page 104 of 126
Notification Capability (LAANC). LAANC provides small UAS operators a streamlined,
efficient, automated solution to enable authorization for airspace access near a irports. By
September 2018, the National Beta Test of LAANC will be available at nearly 300 air traffic
facilities c o vering approximately 500 airports.
Second, in addition to the safety implications and operational impacts, there are a number of
legal obstacles to testing, evaluating, or using countermeasures against UAS, as we indicated in
our letter of October 26, 2016. Technologies used to detect or mitigate UAS could implicate
various provisions of federal criminal law in title 18 U.S.C. (including, but not limited to the
Pen/Trap Statute, the Wiretap Act, the Aircraft Sabotage Act, the Computer Fraud and Abuse
Act, and the prohibition against interference with certain satellite operations) as well as other
laws, such as the prohibition on Aircraft Piracy in title 49 U.S.C. These statutes have
constrained most federal entities from employing technologies which can detect, track, identify,
and, when necessary, mitigate UAS that pose a security risk. In addition, the testing, evaluation,
and use of such technologies causing intentional EMI to radio communications are subject to
statutory restrictions implemented and enforced by the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) and the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA). Very few
entities have obtained legislative relief (or may be otherwise exempt under certain
circumstances) from these laws and regulations . We are working closely with our federal
security partners to ensure the federal law enforcement community has the tools and authorities
necessary to respond to safety and security threats posed by errant o r hostile UAS operations and
to ensure such actions are c arried out in a manner consistent with safe and efficient operation of
theNAS.
The evaluation or deployment of UAS detection or countermeasure systems at airports may
cause unintentional electromagnetic interference (EMI) and affect the performance of air
navigation services equipment on the ground and/or onboard aircraft equipment, as well as
necessitate operational. procedures to manage the airspace and spectrum impacts created by use
of certain types of technology. Therefore, any entities pursuing such evaluations or deployments
should coordinate with. the FAA to assess and mitigate any potential impacts the technology may
have on the NAS. This involves an in depth site-and technology-specific risk-based assessment
by the FAA. For use in an airport environment, the necessary FAA coordination would include,
at a minimwn, coordination with several offices within the FAA's Air Traffic Organization
(ATO) (e.g. Technical Operations, Air Traffic Services, System Operations Security, Spectrum
Office, Airspace Policy), and other offices such as the Office of Security and Hazardous
Materials Safety (ASH) and the Office of Airports (ARP). In addition, the use of certain
technologies might, to the extent they involve transmission of radio s ignals (e.g. radar signals
used for detection), require FCC or NTIA authorization and interagency coordination, while
certain types of col.llltermeasure techno logies may be prohibited based on their capability to
cause interference to other authorized radio communications.
Finally, as noted in our October 26, 2016, correspondence, it is important for federally obligated
airports to understand the FAA has not authorized any UAS detection assessments at any airports
other than those, which previously participated in the FAA ' s UAS detection program through a
CRDA. That work is now complete, and those systems are no longer at the airports. Further, the
FAA is not empowered to authorize the assessment or deployment of certain detection
capabilities or any countermeasure capabilities at airports. Federally obligated airports
3
Page 105 of 126
independently allowing evaluations ofUAS detection and countermeasure systems could be in
conflict with their grant assurances. Without proper advance FAA coordination to identify and
mitigate any potential hazards introduced by the system in the airport environment, the use of
such systems could place the safety and efficiency of the NAS at risk, which would not be
consistent with the airport sponsor's federal grant obligations.
The FAA is committed to working with our federal security partners to ensure UAS are
integrated into the NAS in a safe, efficient, and secure manner -which includes enabling an
efficient and effective law enforcement response to verified threats in the airport environment.
We note that, in the event of a specific threat to safe operations at a particular airport, airport
authorities should use their current protocols for alerting the FAA to such concerns; as with all
threats to which the FAA is alerted , the FAA will work with our federal, state, and/or local
security partners to facilitate an appropriate response .
For additional information concerning past UAS detection and countermeasures technology
demonstrations, evaluations or deployment at airports, please contact Jim Patterson at
609-485-4989.

Dear Airport Sponsor:
Office of Airports Safety and Standards 800 Independence Ave., &/\/
Washington. DC 20591
This letter provides guidance on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Detection and
Countermeasures Technology Demonstrations I Evaluations at airports.
Background: The United States Congress charged the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA), under Section 2206 of Public Law J 14-190 (July IS, 2016), to "establish a pilot
program for airspace hazard mitigation at airports and other critical infrastructure using
unmanned aircraft detection systems" in cooperation with the Department of Defense (DOD),
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and other federal agencies. After completion of the
pilot program, the FAA "may use unmanned aircraft detection systems to detect and mitigate
the unauthorized operation of an unmanned aircraft that poses a risk to aviation safety." In
addition, recognizing the FAA 's long-standing authority, Section 2206 requires consultation
with the heads of other agencies to "ensure that technologies that are developed, tested, or
deployed by [other agencies] to mitigate threats posed by errant or hostile unmanned aircraft
system operations do not adversely impact or interfere with safe airport operations,
navigation, air traffic services, or the safe and efficient operation of the national airspace
system."
The FAA UAS Integration Office is working through Cooperative Research and
Development Agreements (CRDAs) with UAS detection manufacturers to evaluate the small
UAS detection and identification capabilities, using different methodologies and systems on
and near airports. The FAA is also partnering with OHS, DOD and other federal agencies
interested in this research, as outlined in Section 2206. These activities have taken place at
selected airports around the country, and the agencies are planning additional evaluations
later this year and next year.
Issue: Recently, technology vendors contacted several U.S. airports, proposing to conduct
demonstrations and evaluations of their UAS detection and counter measure systems at those
airports . In some cases, the airport sponsors did not coordinate these assessments and
demonstrations with the FAA in advance. It is important that federally obligated airports
understand that the FAA has not authorized any UAS detection or counter measure
assessments at any airports other than those participating in the FAA 's UAS detection
program through a CRDA, and airports allowing such evaluations could be in violation o f
their grant assurances.
Page 107 of 126

Unauthorized UAS detection and counter measure deployments can create a host of
problems, such as electromagnetic and Radio Frequency (RF) interference affecting safety of
flight and air traffic management issues. Additionally, current law may impose barriers to
the evaluation and deployment of certain unmanned aircraft detection and mitigation
technical capabilities by most federal agencies, as well as state and local entities and private
individuals. There are a number of federal laws to consider, including those that prohibit
destruction or endangerment of aircraft and others that restrict or prohibit electronic
surveillance, including the collection, recording or decoding of signaling information and the
interception of electronic communications content.
Any federally obligated airport that is contacted by a vendor requesting to demonstrate
evaluate and deploy any UAS detection or counter measure technology on or near the airport
should first contact their local FAA Airport D istrict Office (ADO) before entering into any
agreement to conduct UAS detection or counter measure evaluations or demonstrations at
their airport. The ADO will then work with the FAA Office of Airport Safety and Standards
and the FAA UAS Integration Office to provide a timely response to the airport.

ATTACHMENT 2-FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
CONCERNING UAS DETECTION SYSTEMS
1. What can airports do right now to prepare?
Airport authorities have access to resources, including support from local partners,
that may be leveraged to share information on, and to plan and coordinate
responses to, potential disruptions caused by errant or malicious UAS operations.
Carefully working together, the airport authorities and the FAA, as well as other
key stakeholders such as TSA and local law enforcement, can better ensure that
airport-specific plans (including any introduction of new technologies such as UAS
detection systems) are built around a risk-based, balanced approach that minimizes
the potential for the undue impacts on the Nation's aviation system-which none
of us want-including disruptions to local air traffic operations and ripple effects
that could extend nationally or even beyond. Consistency of response between
airports will also be important to air carrier operations.
Some airport authorities have already started to develop plans and capabilities,
leveraging immediately available tools and new technologies being advertised by
various vendors, to address the unique risks presented by hazardous drone activity.
Working with airport authorities will help the FAA to ensure to that these
authorities' current and future efforts, including those already underway, are
effectively supported and well aligned with our shared goal of sustaining the safety
and efficiency of the National Airspace System (NAS). The FAA is currently
compiling a checklist of planning factors to consider and key contacts at its
national headquarters, with which airport authorities can work in support of our
common goal of safety in the NAS.
It is prudent to involve all relevant airport stakeholders in this planning effort,
including the FAA (at this early point in these efforts, airport authorities can work
with the FAA at the national headquarters level, better enabling the agency to
integrate local Air Traffic Control (ATC) input), air carriers and other operators,
TSA, and state/local law enforcement with jurisdiction at and around your airport.
2. If a VAS incident happened today, who is responsible for responding?
Consistent criteria, which will be shared among the airport authorities, operators,
and various agencies (including the FAA), are still being f01mulated for
determining what constitutes a "UAS incident" that warrants some form of overt
Page 109 of 126
response. Nevertheless, as we recently saw at Newark Liberty International
Airport and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, as well as in the United
Kingdom, drone operations that are perceived to be at least hazardous (if not
malicious) are already being encountered and key aviation stakeholders are already
taking action.
Currently, drone operations that are perceived to be hazardous can provoke a
response from multiple stakeholders: pilots may take tactical action to avoid in-
flight encounters; ATC may decide to reconfigure terminal operations, reroute
traffic, or even temporarily suspend traffic; airport authorities may opt to alter air
field operations, including temporarily closing select runways; and local law
enforcement, often at the request of airport authorities or ATC, may dispatch assets
on the ground to look for and stop a drone operator.
While hazardous and malicious drone activity poses a number of unique, novel
challenges, which are driving the F AA's efforts to work with airport authorities
and other stakeholders to establish focused response plans, the various responses
being taken today are already built on well-practiced procedures used by these key
actors to respond to other safety and security incidents in the NAS, for example
when a person aims a laser at an aircraft. These responses are also often
coordinated through pre-existing mechanisms such as communication via airport
operations centers, direct links to local A TC, and interagency coordination via the
Domestic Events Network (DEN). These existing procedures and protocols remain
in place for use to the maximum extent appropriate.
Credible reporting and risk assessment are critical prerequisites to any appropriate
response. UAS sighting reports may come from a variety of sources, including
pilots, airport operators, detection system operators, A TC, airport law enforcement,
and even private citizens . The FAA is working with its interagency partners, as
well as other key stakeholders in the aviation community, to build mechanisms for
assessing the credibility of each report, quickly characterizing risk, and distributing
this information through an effective command, control, and communications
structure across NAS stakeholders.
In the meantime, maximizing coordination with FAA and other key stakeholders
can help airport authorities avoid unilateral, unsynchronized responses that could
result in safety and efficiency impacts that outweigh the hazard or threat posed by
a given drone incident. A collaborative approach promotes responsible and
effective decisions for how to respond to errant or malicious UAS operations.
Page 110 of 126
3) What happens if local resources cannot resolve the issue?
When the full weight of local resources are unable to resolve a credible risk from
errant or malicious UAS operations, assistance from federal authorities and
supporting resources may be available upon request. There are ongoing discussions
within the federal government on how to establish criteria, procedures, and
mechanisms for enabling requests for federal assistance. In the meantime, the FAA
affirms its commitment to work rapidly with any airport that identifies a credible
risk from a UAS .
4) What happens once a request for assistance is made?
The details of the process for responding to a request for federal assistance are still
under discussion. Again, we hope to commence discussions with airport authorities
in the near future and remain committed to work rapidly with any airport that
identifies a credible risk from a UAS.
5) How effective are Counter-UAS systems?
C-UAS has become short hand for both UAS detection and mitigation systems;
technically, however, C-UAS only refers to those systems that are used to disrupt,
disable, take control of, or destroy a UAS. It is important to discuss detection and
mitigation as separate capabilities given the technical and operational
considerations associated with each.
The FAA has done an initial evaluation of UAS detection technologies in the
airport environment and identified some gaps and challenges as described in our
July 19, 2018 letter to airport operators . In addition to concerns regarding the
technical performance of UAS detection systems, especially in the complex
environment of an airport, airport authorities may wish to carefully consider and
work with the FAA to address potentially significant operational pitfalls posed by
deploying UAS detection systems, including: determining credibility of detection
alerts (e .g., was the detection backed up by visual identification?); differentiating
legitimate drone operations from non-compliant activity (e .g., was a detected drone
already authorized by the FAA?); characterizing risk (e .g., would a small drone
flown by a hobbyist in a remote part of the airport grounds warrant disrupting
traffic operations?). The FAA has identified a potential risk to safe airport
operations when operational personnel at an airport act upon UAS sighting reports
without a comprehensive response strategy that includes coordinated procedures
and protocols. Understanding the credibility of reports , including reports of
Page 111 of 126
detection from untested or uncertified systems, is critical to making decisions
about appropriate operational response .
With regard to systems that actively interdict offending drones (in other words, C-
UAS systems), it should be underscored that only a select few federal agencies
(DOD, DOE, DOJ, and DHS) have been granted legal authority by Congress to test
and operationally employ active C-UAS systems. This authority was also only
granted with strict requirements for use in protection of specific missions,
facilities, and assets and only after close coordination with the FAA, which reflects
the potential for these systems to cause unintended, significant impacts on the
safety and efficiency of the NAS.
In addition, the difficulty in effective response to the persistent disruption of
operations at Gatwick, despite the presence of C-UAS systems, underscores the
challenges we currently face. The FAA will conduct more detailed C-UAS
technology research with our federal agency partners, to include in the airport
environment, pursuant to Section 383 of the FAA Reauthorization Act of2018.
6) Who has authority to deploy and use C-UAS equipment?
The FAA is unable to support the use of counter measure/mitigation systems by
anyone but those with explicit statutory authorization; however, coordination with
respect to installation and depl oyment of any detection and mitigation systems put
in place by or around an airport assists the FAA in executing its statutorily-
mandated duties .
Congress granted Counter-UAS authorities to the Departments of Defense and
Energy in December 2016. Recently, in the FAA Reauthorization Act of2018,
Congress granted similar Counter-DAS authorities to the Departments of
Homeland Security and Justice. These grants of C-UAS authority are narrowly
tailored for use in protection of specific missions, facilities, and assets and only
after close coordination with the FAA, which reflects the potential for these
systems to cause unintended, significant impacts on the safety and efficiency of the
NAS. FAA is working closely with all four departments to support the
imp lementation of those authorities and the dep loyment of C-UAS systems. At this
time, these grants of C-UAS authority are narrowly-tailored for protection of
specific missions, facilities, and assets and do not provide authority to deploy and
use C -UAS as a standing asset to protect airports. However, DHS and DOJ are
assessing how their authorities would cover response to a persistent serious UAS
disruption of operations at an airport in the United States .
Page 112 of 126
7) What else is being done?
There are many related efforts that are underway that will make it easier to identify
drone operators. The potentially unsafe, unauthorized, and/or malicious use of
drones is exactly why the FAA is focused on moving expeditiously with remote
identification requirements for UAS in the National Airspace System.
8) What else might an airport authority wish to consider with respect to UAS
detection systems?
The FAA is assessing the safety and operational in1pacts of the use of detection
systems at airports. Entities seeking to evaluate or deploy UAS detection systems
may take note that the evaluation or deployment of such systems, even systems
that are marketed as passive detection systems, may implicate provisions of law
(such as title 18 of the United States Code) on which the FAA cannot
authoritatively opine. Therefore, the FAA cannot confirm the legality of any UAS
detection system. An entity considering installing a UAS detection system may
wish to seek system-specific and site-specific guidance from its legal counsel
and/or the appropriate authorities.
Licensing through FCC approval and in coordination with F AA's Spectrum Office
are required for each site. A vendor might claim that its radar has national
spectrum licensing approval, but such approvals are site-specific. A vendor might
claim that its radio frequency detection system is passive; however, the system
might, in fact, have embedded emitting capabilities that are deactivated by
reversible software programming. Some systems might emit for software upgrades
or site installation, but be "passive" when operational. For these reasons, we
cannot categorically assume any detection system does not impact the NAS. Our
July 19, 2018 letter to airport operators discusses coordination with the FAA. To
support coordination, we are working to compile a checklist for airport authorities
considering the acquisition or use of UAS detection systems at their airports.
Many detection systems may need to be located at high vantage points, due to their
direct line-of-sight requirements, and detector arrays may block critical sight lines.
Airports must follow all FAA requirements for building structures on an
airport. In short, the onus is on the Airport Authority to be cognizant of its federal
obligations and local requirements for deployment, zoning, and/or permit
Page 113 of 126
approvals that could impact airport safety--even if located outside the airport
property.
Coordination with the FAA helps to promote the best safety outcome when an
airport, a third party vendor, or other government or private sector entity locates
detection or mitigation systems in and around an airport. The FAA letter dated
May 7, 2019, identifies national headquarters points of contact.

Unmanned Aircraft System Detection -Technical Considerat ions
DISCLAIMER: The follo wing are technical consideratio ns genera ll y known to the C-UAS industry and re levant
government stakeho lders. The y are provided as a courtesy and are not requirements or officially-accepted processes.
Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System (C-UAS) technologies are broken into two primary
categories-detection and mitigation . Such technologies range from Commercial off the Shelf
(COTS) systems to made-to-order systems developed by system integrators. The systems and
sensors share similar characteristics and methods for detecting Unmanned Aircraft Systems
(UAS), colloquially known as "drones ."
Some detection systems are based on existing technologies, re-purposed for C-UAS efforts. For
ex ample, radar technology ha s been adapted for UAS detection purposes from uses such as
anti-missile and anti-mortar detection applications for the military to weather, low-level wind
shear, and avian wildlife monitoring for civilian use . Some UAS detection products have a very
low technical maturity and may not be ready for steady-state use in domestic civil airport
environments.
There are no nationally-recognized standards for detection or classifying items of inte rest at
this time; detection systems do not have the ability to determine intent or a level of threat
posed by the UAS .
The following selected technical quest ions and supporting materials may assist organizations
that are reviewing the capabilities and limitations of UAS detection system s. They suggest some
fundamental questions and concepts that an organization might choose to consider when
e xamining and deploying UAS detection systems. Comparison of prod ucts and services from
competing manufacturers and vendors might also be helpful. The challenges of UAS detection
are complex and cannot be fully addressed by these questions alone. The questions included
here are not exhaustive or all-inclusive .
UAS Mitigation
UAS mitigation or countermeasures include the capability to disrupt, disable, destroy, take
control of, and/or provide alternate flight in structions to a UAS. Some UAS detection systems
may have countermeasure capabilities built-in, which can be disab l ed , while others may offer
them as an optional modular capability.

UAS Detection: General
A key factor in determining the feasibility of installing a detection system at or around an
airport is the number of sensors needed to achieve the desired airspace coverage . Because the
coverage volume depends on the unique characteristics and requirements of each airport and
the type of system, the number of sensors will vary. The coverage distance for many types of
detection technologies also constrains the efficacy of such systems in determining the locations
of the unmanned aircraft (UA) and the ground control station (GCS). An additional critical factor
is that technology can quickly become obsolete, as UAS technology is rapidly changing. Further,
areas of coverage may need to span wider angles since the GCS and pilot in command (PIC) may
not be collocated with or near the drone.
Primary detection sources are those sensors that have a greater level of system autonomy,
providing alerts to be generated upon a detection, prompting further investigation by the
detection system operator. Radar and Radio Frequency (RF) are the most common; however,
Electro Optic (EO) and acoustic sensors do not typically have the capability to be a pri mary
detection source. EO and acoustic might typically be considered validation tools or secondary
sensors to the primary systems (radar and RF).

Unmanned Aircraft System Detection -Technical Considerations
Airport environments have numerous sources of potential interference -often more than
anticipated which can impact performance of systems. Unintentional emitters of
electromagnetic interference (e .g., power lines, breakers, bunched power cab les, LED and
florescent fixtures), as well as intentional emissions (e .g., digital and analog antennae, cellular
services, 2-way radios, telemetry systems) could affect the accuracy of RF-based UAS detection
sensors .
Frequently, multipath interference occurs as a result of unintentional reflections from large
objects. This type of interference can be caused by large passenger planes inside a sensor are a,
skewing the location accuracy of the detection system . Similarly, equipment such as heating
ventilation and air-conditioning units and electric motors co-located with a sensor can cause
interference with the sensor's directional orientation, in addition to background
electromagnetic interference and multipath reflections. Interference can also diminish the
detection range of some systems .
Natural impediments such as t r ees, terrain, moisture and wind also impact sensors .
RF Detection
Manufacturers or vendors may identify RF systems as not emitting (often using the term
"passive") although the product could include and regularly employ such emitting capabilities.
In a steady state, a system may not appear to emit. This same system, however, may have
embedded emitting capabilities that are deactivated through software that could be reversible.
Further, some systems may emit during software upgrades, site installation, scheduled intervals
or ad-hoc calibration. For these reasons, organizations would not be able to categorically
assume any detection sys t em does emit RF energy, which may impact the National Airspace
System .

Radar Detection
Radar-based UAS detection systems can be used as a primary means of detection; however,
they are typically challenged by a lack of automation and are highly dependent on a trained
operator to become aware of new or changing detections, plot and track geolocations, and to
choose the appropriate system settings. Radar-based detection systems also face difficulties
when presented with UAS that only move vertically or hover in place. Some radar systems can
trigger a secondary electro-optical system to "slew to cue," which automatically points the
optics in the direction of the detected target of interest. This feature can be challenged at times
if the system inadvertently determines a larger, manned aircraft in the distance as a new target.
Radar sensors are spec i ally tuned for identifying small targets at short, medium or long ranges;
therefore, multiple radars with different detection ranges may be necessary to cover the areas
of detection .

Electro-Optical Detection
Electro-Optical (EO) and EO/IR sensor suites do not typically serve as a primary detection sensor
for detecting and tracking a UAS. They can be important secondary visual validation tools for
targets detected by primary sensors. Enhanced EO systems can provide valuable capabilities,
including automatic image tracking of potential targets detected by primary sensors ; however,
they can be challenged by being redirected to false targets, such as birds or manned aircraft
cross ing the field of view. EO sensors do not, absent human assistance, have the ability to begin
tracking an object detected by a pri mary sensor.

EO specifications are similar to any modern digital camera; the qual ity of the lens, field of view,
varifocal capabilities, pixel size, and pixel density all have a role in the overall image quality and
usefulness for validating items of interest. Some metrics, such as pixel density, once exclusively
used to determine image quality are no longer accu r ate -"more megapixels" does not mean a
better picture. Performance in low-light conditions, lens quality and the sensitivity of electronic
circuits are better indicators of image quality. When used fo r v isual verification of suspicious
activity, such as UAS detected by primary sensors, the image quality is critically important. The
video surveillance industry uses a commonly accepted metric, Pixels Per Foot (PPF), as a more
predictable level of image quality. Though it is not perfect, PPF is a single number conveying
important information about the projected quality that a camera can provide . PPF is based on
the size of the area that the image is capturing and depends on the distance from the camera,
the focal length of the camera lens and the resolution of the camera .

Data and Information
Data and information management plays a crucial role in UAS detection systems. In addition to
common "best practices" for information technology management and data security, some
other factors might be considered. Clearly demonstrated tools and features such as statistical
dashboards, historical information, and data portability may have greater value than
amorphous buzzwords like artificial intelligence (Al) and machine learning (ML).

Integrated Solutions
Some systems might be referred to as an integrated solution, which employs multiple types of
sensor technologies and provides their data into a single user interface. Other systems may
provide capabilities to incorporate an organization's existing hardware and software elements.
These capabilities are still faced with the technical challenges of applying UAS detection
systems in the absence of automation aids to help an operator better differentiate legitimate
UAS activity from UAS detections that warrant further investigation.

TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council
THROUGH: Paul Ostrander, City Manager
FROM: Elizabeth Appleby, City Planner
DATE: June 11, 2019
SUBJECT: Action Approval for Weaver Brothers Alaska, Inc. – Special Use Permit
for Truck and Vehicle Storage
____________________________________________________________________________
Weaver Brothers, Inc. has requested to use three adjacent City-owned parcels along Coral Street
for storage of trucks and semi-trailers for one-year from June 20, 2019 to June 20, 2020. This
would be similar to the use of two parcels under a five-year lease from the City by Weaver
Brothers for truck storage and would allow for a temporary expansion of their business. Exhibit A
shows the location of the three adjacent parcels requested for a special use permit and the two
parcels currently under lease with the City.
The three adjacent parcels total 67,083 square feet of City property. The Coral Street Airport Zone
of the City was appraised at a rate of $0.50 per square foot. The permit fee would be $2,683.32
for all three lots based on $0.50 per square foot, 67,083 total square feet to be used, and an eight
percent rate. If City Council approves, City Administration would execute the special use permit
attached to this memorandum. Thank you for your consideration.
