The work on the PXT STARs is almost complete; we worked with N90 the week of June 4th to complete criteria waivers for their portion. Still need to finish the criteria waivers required for the STARs within PHL ATCT. Our first individual facility meeting for the NEC ACR project happened the week of June 4th. We met with ZDC to review holding patterns, LOA work, SOP work, and future Pref Route work. The ZDC FAST, ZDC530, and ZDC Training Department also met with us to talk about any potential roadblocks for our 1/30/20 planned implementation. Their biggest concern was the amount of pref routing automation and SGET problems that need to be modified; we will work with them and talk with ZJX to get lessons learned from the FL Metroplex Q and Y Route implementation. The NEC was also briefed on the NEC ACR Status 6/13/18. A week was spent reviewing notes and other documentation from our BOS/MASSPORT meeting that occurred the week of 5/7/18. Further responses were received from Industry and BOS, these responses were incorporated into the notes from the meeting. Our next meeting is the week of 7/9/18 with ZBW and A90. A tentative meeting has been scheduled for the decommissioning of the TDG and EWA VORs. Our telcon for this work is tentatively scheduled for 6/26/18. Joey Tinsley NATCA PBN Co-Lead East Eastern Service Area (ESA) PBN & North East Corridor (NEC) Airspace & Procedures June 2018 The work on the Capital Area Project continued the week of June 18th at PCT. We presented the notional designs to the MAA/BWI noise Round Table (RT) and MWAA/DCA RT in late April. The DCA RT was receptive of our work south of DCA but request that we continue to work on the north side designs. If the DCA RT can be called successful, to this point, BWI RT cannot. The FAA and NATCA went to great effort to provide detailed information about designs via "story boards" for SMEs from PCT and BWI tower to answer questions and explain ATC operations. The meeting was just short of hostile. The BWI RT has since requested an additional briefing of the same material but the FAA has rightly resisted until a more civil environment can be guaranteed for the SMEs to discuss the new designs. Prior to a new briefing we will be reworking several of the departure designs at BWI that were relying on waivers from AFS. The waivers will not be approved so a new solution will need to be found for the TERPZ and LINSE SIDs. Several of the procedures at BWI and DCA projects are being amended to resolve FMS functionality issues or national security concerns. These procedures will move forward to publication. The procedures that are RT generated are reliant on RT feedback and other projects in the NAS that may take precedence. The IAD procedures being designed were finalized the week of June 18th. IAD is not associated with the noise RTs at DCA or BWI. The new designs are to accommodate the new triple ILS operation. The publication for these procedures is scheduled for February 2019. The ZNY High Altitude Offshore work for ZNY sectors 82, 83, 85, 86 is mostly complete. We will be scheduling a finalization meeting over the next few months with ZNY, ZDC,
