This AC replaces AC 150/5200-35A, Submitting the Airport Master Record in Order to Activate a New Airport.

This AC provides guidance on submitting accurate, complete on-airport proposals so the FAA can conduct an aeronautical study.

Provides guidance on using value engineering (VE) in airport projects funded under the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA's) Airport Grant program.

This substantial revision fully incorporates all previous changes to AC 150/5300-13A as well as new standards and technical requirements.

AC 150/5300-13B cancelled the following Engineering Briefs (EBs):

1. EB 63B - Taxiways for Airbus A380 Taxiing Operations
2. EB 73 - Use of Non-Standard 75-Foot- (23-M) Wide Straight Taxiway Sections for Boeing 747-8 Taxiing Operations
3. EB 75 - Incorporation of Runway Incursion Prevention into Taxiway and Apron Design
4. EB 78 - Linear Equations for Evaluating the Separation of Airplane Design Groups on Parallel Taxiways and Taxiways to Fixed/Movable Objects
5. EB 99A - Changes to Tables 3-2 and 3-4 of Advisory Circular 150/5300-13A, Airport Design

Change 1 cancels the following Engineering Briefs (EBs):

1. EB 65A - Use of 150-Foot (45-M) Wide Runways for Airbus A380 Operations
2. EB 74A - Use of 150-foot (45-M) Wide Runways and Blast Pads for Boeing 747-8 Operations

Reaffirms to the aviation community the FAA policy governing responsibility for funding relocation, replacement and modification of air traffic control and air navigation facilities that are made necessary by improvements or changes to the airport.

Please see the letter cancelling AC 150/5300-18C and re-activating AC 150/5300-18B.

Provides guidance on the use of remote sensing technologies in the collection of data describing the physical infrastructure of an airport.

This AC provides standards and guidance for designing aircraft deicing facilities.

This AC explains the specifications for establishing geodetic control on or near an airport.
