2016 CBA Tentative Agreement Page 208 of 217 Appendix 1 1 (TERMINAL) Change the glossary definit ion of Point - out to the following : a physical or automated action taken by a controller to transfer the radar identification of an aircraft to another controller if the aircraft entered the airspace or protected airspace of another controller and radio com munications were not transferred. 2 (TERMINAL) Delete the 0.5% add - on for ASOS 3 (TERMINAL) Increase the weight for LAWRS add - on from 1% to 2% to more adequately reflect this complexity. 4 (TERMINAL) Proposed Formula Change For Facilities where at leas t 97% of the traffic count is derived by automated means, for each day, and the prior 364 days (i.e. use a 365 day count) calculate: 1. For regularly occurring operations, those happening at least 160 times a year, the percent of airport air traffic (Arrival s and Departures) rounded up to the next highest whole percentage that is: a. Super Heavy b. Heavy c. B757 d. Large e. Small 2. Multiply the percentage of Super Heavy traffic by 4 then multiply by the average weighted hourly count derived in (G). 3. Multiply the percentage of Heavy traffic by 2 then divide by four. Then multiply by the average we ighted hourly count derived in (G). 4. Multiply the percentage of B757 traffic by 1.6 then divide by four. Then multiply by the average weighted hourly count derived in (G). 5. Small traffic: a. If the total percent of Small traffic is less than the total p ercent of large traffic, multiply the percentage of Small traffic from (E) above by 1.6 then divide by four. Then multiply by the average weighted hourly count derived in (G). b. If the total percent of Small traffic is greater than the total percent of L arge traffic: . 1) Calculate the percentage of Small traffic that has a Same Runway Separation category of I (One) or is a Helicopter; . 2) Calculate the percentage of Small traffic that has a Same Runway Separation category of II (Two); . 3) Calculate t he percentage of Small traffic that has a Same Runway Separation category of III (Three) or has no Same Runway Separation category assigned. Determine which two Categories (CAT I and II, or CAT II and III) constitute a lower percentage of the total air t raffic. Multiply this percentage by 1.3 then divide by four. Then multiply by the average weighted hourly count derived in (G). 6. Add 2 through 5. This will yield the traffic mix add - on count. Note: For facility's that don't have an automated count (e. g. GFK) the long - standing traffic mix formula currently in Appendix A would still need to be utilized. The long - standing provision should be maintained with a reference to its use only for facilities that do not have an automated traffic count.
