successful, the waiver for trip operation would be approved and we could potentially run trips in May when the needed PRM approaches are published. Both Delta and D21 have stated that the trips are required to make the Metroplex design work efficiently. Equipment would be shipped from OKC to Detroit to run the HITLs. We have requested that AFS-420 and the ATO move forward with the HITL validation ASAP. The timelines will be forwarded to the program office as soon as know. Report submitted by Michael Taylor CLE/DTW Article 114 D & I Liaison Florida Metroplex December 2017 and January 2018 Report Florida Metroplex team had the following activities during the past month: December: Met in Atlanta with the OSG and Core team planning for 2018; January: Met with or teleconferenced all .41 co-leads, ZDC, ZMA, ZJX, ZSU, OSG about the Atlantic Coast Q/Y routes; Met in Jacksonville with ZJX and ZMA on Q/Y routes planning; Participated in Florida Metroplex telcons. Submitted by Greg Harris FL Metroplex Co-Lead NATCA PBN Co-Lead East Since coming on board in December 2017 I have been looking for projects to complete or start work on. We had a final meeting set to finish up the CVG project but funding got pulled last minute; we had to cancel this trip and this project is now on administrative hold. There was also work being done for the VORMON on TDG and EWA, but they have also been placed on administrative hold. Since then many of our projects have been placed on a six-month administrative hold. There have been meetings and many discussions between the PBN Co-Leads in East and Florida Metroplex to see if we can get the ACR routes all published in Nov 2018. The deadlines in order to get this accomplished are very tight, but there are huge connectivity benefits to ZJX and ZDC if this can be accomplished. If we don't publish these routes in November 2018, we will have to wait until November 2019 due to the DataComm moratoriums. Scheduling meetings between ZDC, ZNY, and ZBW is also being worked on to see if we can publish these Q and Y routes all the way up the East Coast. We had an Eastern prioritization meeting mostly regarding NEC (NorthEast Corridor) last week. A lot of requests have been made and we are working on who will be doing what and how we are going to go about the PBN portion. Since that meeting we have been working on a game plan to complete the current PXT project, Capitol Project, and the Northern ACR Routes. Joey Tinsley NATCA PBN Co-Lead East Eastern Service Area (ESA) PBN January 2018 Capital Area Project DCA/BWI/IAD The December meeting at PCT was very productive with designs at BWI and IAD being 95 percent complete. We continue to work the SIDs design at DCA with the National Parks service, Secret Service, MWAA, and the community groups. The designs are around 90 percent. We should be "pencils down" at our February meeting. The CWG will prepare briefings for Maryland Airport Administration (MAA), the BWI community noise roundtable, Metropolitan Washington Airport Authority and DCA community noise roundtable. We will brief these groups in either late March or April. Our projected
