Pa. Code tit. 67, pt. I, subpt. B, art. IV, ch. 471, app B
Section 471.3(d) allows the Bureau to waive, for "good cause," compliance with the licensing criteria and related requirements. No waivers will be granted for conditions which are inconsistent with FAA Grant Assurance obligations or other applicable FAA regulation unless permission is granted by the FAA.
The following is a nonexhaustive illustrative list of potential waiverable conditions:
(1) Runway Length.
(2) Runway Width.
(3) Runway Obstacle Free Zone.
(4) Approach Surface Penetrations.
(5) Runway Markings.
(6) Runway Alignment.
(7) Longitudinal and Transverse Grades.
(8) Telephone Requirements.
When evaluating any nonstandard condition for a waiver, the following will be considered in determining "good cause:"
(1) Type and performance characteristics of the critical aircraft operating at the facility.
(2) History of incidents attributable to the non-standard conditions as determined by the FAA and/or NTSB.
(3) Operational limitations, such as VFR-day only.
(4) Physical constraints.
(5) Financial feasibility of undertaking improvements to meet airport licensing criteria.
(6) How similar issues have been handled with respect to other airports.
(7) Facility preservation.
(8) Availability of visual guidance systems.
