RE: AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL TOWER (ATCT)
CONTROL TOWER SITING STUDY & 3D MODEL
FRESNO YOSEMITE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (FAT)
CTBX / A Pond Brand (CTBX + Pond) is pleased to submit this proposal to RS&H for providing a Siting
Study for a new Air Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) at the Fresno Yosemite International Airport (FAT).
PURPOSE:
The purpose of the Control Tower Siting Study at FAT is to acquire Federal Aviation Authority (FAA)
signature approvals of a recommended / approved site for a new ATCT to replace the existing tower.
The Control Tower Siting Study will be conducted in accordance with the FAA Siting Process of an FAA
Airport Traffic Control Tower (ATCT), ref. Order 6480.4C and the FAA Virtual Immersive Siting Tower
Assessment (VISTA). It is understood that an environmental phase 1 study is being undertaken by
RS&H.
SCOPE OF SERVICES:
1.0 SITING REPORT
Task 1.1 – Kick-off Meeting, Survey and Data Collection
CTBX + Pond will meet with Airport officials, local air traffic controllers, the FAA VISTA National
Coordinator and other FAA and FAT stakeholders to discuss site observations for three (3) preferred
sites as selected by FAT and RS&H for further study. RS&H will coordinate with a field surveyor to
verify latitude/longitude/elevation of key airfield points and preferred sites, as well as data on existing
buildings and airfield features to be incorporated into a 3D computer simulation enhanced with virtual
reality (VR). CTBX + Pond will create the 3D/VR model and, with the assistance of RS&H, gather other
pertinent data about the airport and aircraft operations necessary to conduct the siting study.
Amendment No. 1 - Page 6 of 21
DocuSign Envelope ID: 639B8805-21CF-47AC-92E7-4CB3F6ED1726
Page 2
Task 1.2 – Draft Siting Report
CTBX + Pond will prepare and provide a Draft Siting Report for review and comment to FAT officials,
local air traffic controllers, the FAA National Coordinator and RS&H for review and comment. The
proposed controller eye heights will be determined for each preferred site and tested with the FAA
Visibility Tool. CTBX + Pond will coordinate the eye heights and related data about each preferred site
with the FAA VISTA Group. The 3D/VR Model will be created in accordance with FAA VISTA criteria.
The Model will include the airfield and proposed control towers/cabs to be evaluated in real time. CTBX
+ Pond will provide its analysis of impacts to airspace and NAVAIDs and evaluate lines-of-sight to
validate the three (3) preferred sites. The report will address the characteristics of each with detailed
narratives and graphics as well as addressing the FAA siting requirements and potential hazards. A
Site Comparison Chart will be presented for quick reference of siting criteria results.
Advanced Siting Report
Task 1.3 – Review Meeting
A review meeting will be held with FAT officials, local air traffic controllers, and RS&H in order to
discuss review comments and necessary updates to the report. At that time, a preliminary assessment
of potential hazards for each site will be reviewed, all to be reevaluated at the FAA Safety Panel. Data
for preliminary airspace assessments from FAA Flight Standards and Technical Operations will also be
submitted to the FAA National Coordinator for the three (3) preferred sites. In the meantime, CTBX +
Pond will have conducted its own, more detailed, analyses of TERPS and NAVAIDs impacts.
Task 1.4 – Submitted Siting Report
CTBX + Pond will incorporate all applicable review comments from the Task 1.3 review meeting.
Additional supporting narratives and appendices will be added to document the three (3) preferred
sites. CTBX + Pond will provide guidance to RS&H for their utilities inventory and conceptual site
layouts including access, fencing, and parking. In addition, CTBX + Pond, together with RS&H, will
provide a rough order of magnitude (ROM) opinion of probable construction cost for each site. The
updated Siting Report will be submitted to FAT officials, local air traffic controllers, the FAA National
Coordinator and RS&H. The FAA VISTA Team will apply report data for use in their Siting Panel and
Safety Assessment.
2.0 FUNCTIONAL HAZARD ASSESSMENT (FHA) & SAFETY ASSESSMENT (SA)
Task 2.1 – Function Hazard Assessment
The Preliminary Hazard List (PHL) issued in the FAA Order 6480.4C will be applied to each preferred
site to identify the potential for risk. Mitigation procedures will be explored for each risk. These will be
recorded for further consideration by FAT officials, RS&H, local air traffic controllers, and FAA subject
matter experts during Task 2.2.
Task 2.2 – FAA Safety Panel Session
The Safety Risk Management Panel (SRMP) Session will be a one-day meeting conducted virtually via
ZOOM with Airport personnel, local air traffic controllers, the FAA National Coordinator, RS&H, and
subject matter experts from several FAA lines of business. That session will be prefaced a few weeks
Amendment No. 1 - Page 7 of 21

earlier with a practice run with a local air traffic controller and again at the Validation session conducted
with the FAA VISTA Team to determine readiness. CTBX + Pond will support both efforts with its 3D
Model in Virtual Reality. A Recommended Site will be arrived at by the Safety Panel, including the
airport sponsor. Afterwards, CTBX + Pond will update to the Siting Report, as required, and work with
the FAA to produce a Safety Assessment document for the Recommended Site.
Task 2.3 – Safety Assessment
The Safety Assessment (SA) follows a specific FAA format which presents the progression of the
analysis of how the hazards of each site were evaluated together with any mitigation procedures that
were recommended by the Safety Panel and who is responsible for implementing each. This document
will be prepared by the National Coordinator’s team. CTBX + Pond will provide input, review, and
comment to FAA. The SA and supporting notes and graphics will be included as an appendix to the
Siting Report.
3.0 FINAL SITING REPORT
Task 3.1 – Siting Report for Approvals
CTBX + Pond will provide final documentation of the completed Siting Report for FAT officials to submit
as the FAA approval signature document. RS&H will provide the Access & Utilities element and the
Phase 1 Environmental Study, for each preferred site, to be included as appendices. The Siting Report
will then be transmitted by the FAA National Coordinator to the FAA ATO Planning Manager for
appropriate circulation to obtain FAA approval signatures authorizing the Recommended Site.
4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY
Task 4.1 – Proposed Development
CTBX + Pond will provide assistance with project description of the sites.
Task 4.2 – Review and Coordination Meetings
CTBX + Pond will attend as needed to relate this study and the contents of the Siting Report.

SCOPE OF WORK
FAT ATCT Relocation, CEQA EIR - (Version 1.0) 1
I PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The City of Fresno owns and operates the Fresno Yosemite International Airport (FAT). The City’s
Department of Aviation (City) has contracted with RS&H to prepare an Airport Traffic Control
Tower (ATCT) replacement and implementation study. Due to recent historical evaluation of the
ATCT, the ATCT has been determined to be eligible for inclusion on the National Register of
Historic Places (NRHP). As such, the demolition of the ATCT would be considered a “significant
impact” under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and an environmental impact
report (EIR) would be required. This CEQA documentation is in addition to the previously scoped
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) environmental assessment (EA). Certification of the
CEQA document is required prior to the start of NEPA documentation per the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA).
TASK 2 ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION, CONCEPTUAL DESIGN, AND
PRELIMINARY COSTS
Under CEQA, the City of Fresno would act as the lead agency and be responsible for reviewing
