Denver Metroplex Update by Mark Ostronic The Denver Metroplex team is currently trying to finalize an environmental assessment. The team is expected to have an environmental assessment this month with an additional 30-day public comment period. The FONSI/RDO is scheduled to be completed prior to the end of the year. The team has worked through most of the outstanding LOA issues between affected facilities which will allow training to begin shortly. However, work continues on the TMU LOAs and runway configurations. Additional support is being received for TBFM work from AJV-3, second level engineering, and the TBFM National Ops team. Meetings are still taking place to determine resources available and oversight of these activities. ZDV is conducting an SRM Panel to determine how runway assignment will pass from their facility to D01. ZDV will begin training this month, while D01 and DEN will begin shortly after the new year.
