ultimately came to a decision not to proceed with the Study Team proposal for the NW Corner. I believe the ISIMs provided a huge benefit - helping make this decision. After the decision was made the first week the Team brought representatives in from ZOA to assist ZLA in designing new routes into the TRACON. As I mentioned earlier, what I believed was going to be some of our most contentious design work; the Team worked through the issues quickly and designed a new STAR and two new SIDs for all four configurations in Las Vegas. Currently we are about one week ahead of our proposed schedule. Next week we'll be in ZLA with reps from ZLC and ZDV working on the Northeast corner. Overall our project is in a good pla ce. We continue to work with the facilities dealing with local issues that we can provide help with. Chris Thomas Las Vegas Metroplex Co - Lead .
