§ 7-16. Objects affecting navigable airspace.  


Latest version.
  • Any existing or proposed structure or object of natural growth that exceeds the standards for identifying and evaluating aeronautical effect as defined in section 3, chapter 6, part 2 of FAA Order 7400.2, entitled Procedures for Handling Airspace Matters, is presumed to be a hazard to air navigation unless an obstruction evaluation study determines otherwise. Any structure or object of natural growth in violation of the aforementioned standard will be evaluated by the FAA and the airport zoning director to determine if the structure has a substantial adverse effect on navigable airspace effecting airport operations. The airport zoning director shall take into account the above presumption in approving or denying an application for an airport height zoning permit.
