A complete copy of the rules and regulations regarding airport licensing standards can be accessed at https://www.nebraska.gov/rules-and-regs/regsearch/Rules/Transportation_Dept_of/Title- 17/Chapter-01.pdf 5010 Airport Inspection The NDOT is under contract to conduct the 5010 Airport Inspections, as required by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The information obtained during the inspection is reported in the 5010 Airport Master Record and may be viewed on the 5010 webpage at https://www.airportiq5010.com/5010Web/. The 5010 information provides a description of the physical and operational characteristics of the airport and is available to the public. The NDOT has provided a revised red lined copy (see attached) of your 5010 record, as a result of the inspection. The data will be submitted to the FAA. This website is updated on a quarterly basis. Pavement Condition Index Inspection (PCI) The NDOT conducts the PCI to assist the airport in fulfilling their federal grant assurance for maintaining a pavement maintenance management program. The PCI’s are required every three years. The results will be provided under a separate report by November 2023. Based Aircraft Inventory Based aircraft inventory counts should be done on a yearly basis at a minimum. According to the National Based Aircraft Inventory Program website, Fremont’s Based Aircraft data was last confirmed in June of 2017. Please re-visit the website and update your data as needed; then be sure to click *** Confirm Aircraft Data *** (big green rectangle. Even if your data is up-to- date and requires no edits, still click *** Confirm Aircraft Data ***)! Aeronautics will contact you later this fall to remind you to update your inventory before the end of the year. While this is the airport sponsor’s responsibility, Aeronautics can offer guidance and assistance. The based aircraft inventory is required by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) because the Fremont Municipal Airport is included in the FAA’s National Plan of Integrated Airport System (NPIAS). Having accurate based aircraft information assists the FAA in planning and forecasting the growth of the general aviation community, especially as the FAA looks at LPV (Localizer Performance with Vertical Guidance) approaches and other system-wide improvements. In addition, based aircraft counts are one of the criteria used to determine general aviation classification in the NPIAS, which is a requirement to receive Federal funds.  ATTACHMENT B – AIRPORT INSPECTIONS Nebraska Department of Transportation - Division of Aeronautics 1600 Nebraska Parkway Lincoln, NE 68502-4101 2023 Airport Inspection Summary City Fremont Loc-ID FET Page 1 Of 2 Inspected Date 8/17/23 Airport Fremont Municipal Manager Cari Hoffart Met with manager __Yes _X_No (follow-up call with Cari Hoffart) __Met with State Inspector Riley Cresto, (402) 471-7926, Riley.Cresto@nebraska.gov General Comments Item # Discrepancies and items that MUST be corrected to renew the Airport Date of License.
