TVT VOR decommissioning is being del ayed slightly to ensure that the ROCKT SID serving KCVG and KLUK is adjusted so that surrounding facilities and users are not negat ively impacted when this navaid is removed from all charting products. KSAT Project Community Engagement plans are being dra fted and we expect to present them to the Airport Director for discussion and agreement in December. We anticipate a very collaborative meeting as we adjust the Engagement Plan to fulfill the expectations that the Airport has for our project. We have alrea dy met with the facility to discuss all of the impacts caused by the current design criteria. These criteria problems plague every one of our projects and prevent us from offering the best product and service that we can. We continue to request relief an d change in the orders that have put some of these negative concepts in place. Finally, ATAC is at the RO this week to train our PBN staff on PDARS. PDARS is an excellent tool that will help us during design, evaluation, post implementation, environmental , and local engagement activities. The ATAC representative has done a great job with the instruction and tutorials.

All runways transitions, with the exception of one runway from each downwind in each flow, have been p ermanently NOTAM'd.
