TITLE: JWA Settlement Agreement Amendment: Noise Monitoring Station
ABSTRACT:
John Wayne Airport (JWA) has a detailed noise monitoring system whose data is used in part to assure
that planes comply with the Orange County commercial and general aviation noise ordinances. Noise
limits — typically shown in Single Event Noise Equivalent Levels (or SENEL) — are also set forth in the
airport's Phase 2 Access Plan and the current Settlement Agreement between the City, the County, Stop
Polluting our Newport (SPON) and the Airport Working Group (AWG). As technology improves, the
sensitivity of the monitors improves, too. The County has recently replaced the 20-year old monitors with
new monitors. The new monitors have read the same noise slightly differently — higher - than the old
monitors. As a result, the noise standards in the Settlement Agreement and Phase 2 Access Plan must be
changed in order to allow the Settlement Agreement to continue to comply with the federal Airport Noise
and Capacity Act (ANCA).
RECOMMENDATION:
a) Find that the execution of the Tenth Supplemental Stipulation to the JWA Settlement Agreement is not
subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)
(3) of the CEQA Guidelines;
b) Find that that the Tenth Supplemental Stipulation to the JWA Settlement Agreement complies with City
Council Policy A-17; and
c) Authorize the City Attorney to execute the Tenth Supplemental Stipulation to the JWA Settlement
Agreement on behalf of the City.
FUNDING REQUIREMENTS:
No Fiscal Impact.
15-1
DISCUSSION:
The Settlement Agreement. Operations at JWA must comply with a Settlement Agreement first entered
into in 1985 between the County of Orange, the City, Stop Polluting our Newport (SPON) and the Airport
Working Group (AWG). The Agreement, most recently amended in 2014, sets forth caps on the amount of
passengers that can arrive or depart from JWA in any one calendar year, limits the amount of average daily
departures of generally the loudest commercial flights, and requires compliance with a noise-based curfew
as well as noise thresholds both on the arrival and departure patterns. These thresholds are written into
the Settlement Agreement and are the subject of this agenda item. To reiterate, the curfew is noise-based
— if a plane could depart at a sound level below even the nighttime (10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. M-Sat and 8:00
a.m. on Sundays) noise thresholds, it could indeed depart.
The noise monitoring stations. The ten (10) Noise Monitoring Stations are an integral part of the
Settlement Agreement. They are placed around JWA — three on the arrival corridors and seven on the
departure corridors. The Stations are set up in a triangle pattern, generally, where a plane flies through the
center of the triangle and the Stations monitor noise directly below the flight and to its sides. See
Attachment A for a map of the Stations. The Settlement Agreement requires flights to stay at or below
specific "Single Event Noise Equivalent Levels" (SENEL) for each station. Each station has a specific
upper limit to noise. The limits are lower as planes get higher in the air and farther from JWA.
As a slight aside, please know that there is no "required takeoff procedure" for JWA. This is a common
misnomer, sometimes even repeated by pilots to their passengers at takeoff. What's required is that the
flights not exceed the SENEL limit at each station. If a flight is quiet enough to take off without a fast
power-up and then a level-off, it can apply continuous power to its takeoff. Generally, lighter flights — and
sometimes more advanced aircraft — can stay below the Stations' SENEL limits while staying at continuous
power. A lighter flight might be one traveling with fewer passengers, luggage and/or fuel (such as a short
flight to the Bay Area or Las Vegas).
Why Replace? The noise monitoring equipment is nearing 20 years old and needs to be replaced given
the age of the technology and because some of the replacement components are no longer made nor
serviced. Additionally, the company which manufactured the current equipment no longer exists. Please
see Attachment B for a photo of the equipment at the NMS near the Newport Beach Golf Course.
It is critically important at this point to remind readers of the federal Airport Noise and Capacity Act
(ANCA). ANCA was passed by Congress in the 1990s, and it's said that "what happened at John Wayne
Airport in 1985" populated the testimony there, as Congress determined that localities' interest to restrict
either the noise or capacity of a commercial airport was bad for US commerce and travel. Because of
ANCA, it is now very challenging to adopt a local regulation — or revise an existing regulation — that could
further restrict air traffic via limits on capacity or noise. The 1985 JWA Settlement Agreement and
amendments have not been in violation of ANCA, and are considered grandfathered in.
Today, because of quieter planes (for example, a newer Boeing 737 — the most common plane used at
JWA — is significantly quieter than the MD80s that once flew out of JWA), the flights from JWA generally
(with exceptions) stay several decibels below the limits of the noise monitoring stations. For example:
In the first quarter of 2015, the SENEL for a Class A Southwest flight was:
. 91.8 dB at NMS 1, while the limit is at 101.8 dB
. 89.7 dB at NMS 3, while the limit is 100.7 dB
In the first quarter of 2015, the SENEL for a Class A American Airlines flight was:
. 8.4 dB at NMS 1, while the limit is at 101.8 dB
. 96.9 dB at NMS 3, while the limit is 100.7 dB
For detailed noise information by quarter, see the County's website at
http://www.ocair.com/rel?ortspublications/AccessNoise/
15-2
ANCA, the Noise Monitoring equipment, Council Policy A-17 and the Settlement Agreement. The County
issued an RFP for installation of new, updated monitoring equipment. They also hired a firm to analyze the
data during a three-month, four site "side-by-side" testing period, where new microphones were set up very
close to (generally 2' away) existing mics. The two sets of mics measured the same flights, at the same
times, on the same days, two feet away from each other, for three months. The firm concluded that the
sensitivity of the new system read each flight at between 0.3 and 0.9 dB higher than the old system (note:
generally, the human ear is challenged to detect a difference in dB of less than 3.0 dB).
The City also hired a third-party firm to analyze the same data. Our firm agreed with the County firm's
analysis and the as-read difference.
To comply with ANCA — where further restrictions on noise are specifically prohibited (without a Part 161
study) — our legal advisors tell us (and those of the County and from AWG and SPON) that we cannot keep
the "old" thresholds measured with the older equipment now that the new equipment's data exists. As
such, the Settlement Agreement (as well as the JWA Phase 2 Access Plan) must be changed to reflect the
more sensitive microphone system's data. Doing so maintains parity with the existing limits — something
ANCA requires. The Class A flight changes recommended are generally increases of between 0.4 dB
(NMS #3) and 0.7 dB (NMS #1-2, #4-7). For General Aviation, the increases in daytime limits would be
0.7dB at NMS 1-2, 0.4 dB at NMS 3, and no changes to the remaining NMS network. There are also
changes to the Class E limits.
Council Policy A-17 also guides the City's actions regarding airports. As Council Policy A-17 reminds us:
"The strategies, actions and decisions of the City Council and community groups concerned about airport
impacts must consider and respect the complex statutory and decisional law related to aircraft operations
and airport regulations. The failure of the City Council or community groups to accurately inform Newport
Beach residents about the legal framework could lead to unreasonable expectations and ill-advised
decisions and/or strategies."
Policy A-17 also expresses that:
"The JWA Settlement Agreement is the primary vehicle by which the City exercises control over airport
impacts. ... The City Council shall pursue further amendments to adhere to the following fundamental
principles with respect to the JWA Settlement Agreement and any modification or amendment under
consideration:
a. The City Council shall not consider or approve any agreement (including any amendment of the
2002 and 2014 Amendments) that would or could result in any modification to the County's airport curfew
ordinances.
b. The City Council shall not consider or approve any agreement (including any amendment of the
2002 and 2014 Amendments) that would or could lead to the construction of a second air carrier runway.
C. The City Council should consider modifications to the Settlement Agreement only upon a
determination, based on appropriate environmental documentation, that the modifications will not materially
alter the quality of life, and are in the best long term interests, of Newport Beach residents most impacted by
JWA.
d. As a condition to any amendment of the 2002 and 2014 Amendments or successor agreements, the
City Council should obtain a favorable FAA determination that the proposed amendment or agreement is
exempt from FAA review and approval on the basis that there is no adverse impact on airport capacity or
airport safety and complies with other relevant federal laws and regulations.
4. JWA Facilities & Operations. JWA has a single air carrier runway with air carrier, air cargo and
general aviation facilities sharing approximately 500 acres. The City Council shall take any action
necessary to ensure that no additional air carrier runway is constructed. The City Council shall also take
any action necessary to prevent any modification of the existing noise curfew that, generally speaking,
15-3
prohibits certain departures from 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. (8:00 a.m. Sunday morning). The City should also
support any plan or proposal that maintains, and oppose any plan or project that proposes any significant
change to, the existing level of general aviation operations, the current level of general aviation support
facilities or the General Aviation Noise Ordinance. Finally, the City shall take all steps necessary to
preserve or enhance the existing remote monitoring system (RMS) and public disclosure of RMS readings
and information.
The City, through the Aviation Committee, will also continuously evaluate means and methods by which
JWA impacts can be minimized including the analysis of changes in airport procedures and aviation related
technological advancements to determine if feasible alternatives exist. In the event the City identifies
feasible alternatives that could reduce adverse airport impacts the City shall take all reasonable actions
necessary to implement the alternative(s)."
As noted, we believe that the technological updates to the Noise Monitoring Stations, while they result in a
numeric change to the dB levels for the Stations (and therefore relate to the curfew but do not change its
hours) are required under ANCA. This is part of the "all steps necessary' to protect the NMS system and
to protect the Settlement Agreement itself
Does this mean we can expect more noise as a result of this change? No. The flights' noise is
unchanged. Further, in almost all cases, the NMS thresholds are not close to being met, regardless of the
mic system. If anything, flights are getting slightly quieter over time as air carriers move to more fuel-
efficient engines.
The recommended actions, if approved, would authorize the execution of the Tenth Supplemental
Stipulation (Attachment D) to the JWA Settlement Agreement to authorize these changes to the noise
monitoring equipment and station limits, as well as making CEQA findings. The County Board of
Supervisors, the AWG, and SPON will also have to approve the changes. SPON and AWG have done so,
and the Board is set to do so this month.
During the Study Session of September 8, 2015, staff from our third-party firm as well as from the County
will be present to explain the changes and process, as well as to answer any questions the Council may
have.
NOTE: Attachment E, Appendix A to the 10th Amended Stipulation (Phase 2 Access Plan changes) is a
very large document and is not included in the paper version of the staff report. A paper copy is available
for viewing at the City Clerks Office. It can also be accessed from the City's website:
www.newportbeachca.gov/Aviation Committee/Special Reports/Appendix A to the 10th Amended
Stipulation.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The proposed project is not subject to CEQA since there is no possibility that theproject or activity to be
carried out may have a significant effect on theenvironment. The proposed changes to maximum noise
levels reflect minortechnical equipment differences between the current and new noise monitoringsystems.
The use of the new equipment has no potential to cause anysignificant effect on the environment.
NOTICING:
The City's Aviation Committee meeting of August 6, 2015 was focused on this matter as well as another
FAA action relating to NextGen and departure paths. The Committee heard a presentation by the County's
consultant and asked questions about it (the consultant's presentation is Attachment C). This item was
noticed according to the Brown Act.

General Aviation Aircraft
Note that the general aviation recommended changes were based on an analysis
similar to the air carrier analysis described earlier. The results showed that for
the general aviation aircraft the differences for the new monitors were 0.3; 017
0.3; and 0.4 for sites 1S, 2S, 3S, and 8N respectively. These numbers are very
similar to the air carrier numbers. There may be some bias in the general aviation
results as only a small fraction of general aviation operations trigger a noise
event at the monitors. Thus the measurements reflect the results only for the

It is important to remember that these increases do not represent an increase in
the noise levels that will occur in the community. Rather. these increases in the
noise limits are necessary to account for new microphones that are more
sensitive than the old microphones. As discussed in detail above, these
modifications are therefore necessary to maintain parity with the existing noise
compliance limits at the Airport.

STipmTIONAND[PROPOSED] ORDER CASE No. CV 85-1542 TJH(MCx)
15-26
I The County of Orange, California ("the County"), which is the certificated proprietor of
2 John Wayne Airport, Orange County (SNA) ("MA"), the City of Newport Beach,
3 California ("the City"), Stop Polluting Our Newport ("SPON"), and the Airport
4 Working Group of Orange County, Inc. ("AWG"), by their respective counsel, enter
5 into the following stipulation:
6 RECITALS
7 1. On December 15, 1985, this United States District Court entered a final
8 judgment ("the confirming judgment") in this action as between the County, the City,
9 SPON, and AWG (collectively, "the settling parties") based upon a stipulation executed
10 by their respective counsel and submitted to the Court in November 1985 ("the 1985
11 Stipulation').
12 2. In addition to the settling parties, the Federal Aviation Administration
13 ("FAA"), and various other parties, including various certificated commercial airlines,
14 were also parties to this action. By a series of stipulations and a confirming order of
15 this Court entered in 1986, the remaining claims and issues in the action were
16 dismissed, without prejudice.
17 3. The 1985 Stipulation and the confirming judgment (which incorporated
18 the terms of the 1985 Stipulation) contain certain provisions that are executory and
19 binding upon, among others, the County, from the date of the Court's entry of the
20 confirming judgment through the original term of the settlement stipulation that
21 required it to remain in effect through December 31, 2005.
1
STipnAmNAND[PROPOSED] ORDER CASE NO. CV 85-1542 T H(MCx)
15-27
1 4. The term of the original settlement stipulation has been extended by the
2 settlement parties and modified by Court Order and Judgment. The term of the current
3 settlement stipulation requires the stipulation to remain in effect through December 31,
4 2030.
5 5. In 1997, a new noise monitoring system was installed at JWA to replace
6 the noise monitoring system that was originally installed at JWA in 1979. Based on the
7 results of a side-by-side comparison of noise levels as recorded by the new system and
8 the system installed at JWA in 1979 and recommendations from the County's noise
9 consultant, amendments were made to the 1985 Settlement Agreement in 1999
10 regarding permitted noise levels for regularly scheduled commercial operations.
11 Corresponding amendments were also made to the maximum permitted noise levels in
12 the Phase 2 Access Plan and the County's General Aviation Noise Ordinances
13 ("GANO"). The objective of the modifications to the maximum permitted noise levels
14 was to maintain parity with the existing noise compliance limits and to preserve
15 operational capacity at JWA as agreed to by the settling parties in the 1985 Stipulation,
16 as amended.
17 ADJUSTMENTS TO MAXIMUM PERMITTED NOISE LEVELS
18 6. In early 2015, a new noise monitoring system was installed at JWA to
19 replace the current noise monitoring system that was originally installed at JWA in
20 1997. A side-by-side comparison of the noise levels recorded by the new system and
21 the current system was conducted commencing March 1 through May 31, 2015. Based
2
STipnAmNAND[PRoposED] ORDER CASE No. CV 85-1542 1'.)H(MCx)
15-28
I on the results and the data collected through May 31, 2015, and recommendations from
2 the County's noise consultant, the parties wish to once again make appropriate
3 technical adjustments to the maximum pennitted noise levels as presently defined in the
4 amended Phase 2 Access Plan, effective October 1, 2015. The objective of these
5 modifications is to maintain parity with the existing noise compliance limits, to
6 preserve operational capacity of JWA as agreed to by the settling parties in the 1985
7 Stipulation (as amended) and to maintain the County's grandfathered status of its noise
8 and access restrictions under the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990, commonly
9 known as ANCA. The proposed technical adjustments do not result in an increase in
10 actual noise levels at JWA beyond that contemplated by the parties at the time of
11 execution of the 1985 Stipulation and any amendments to the 1985 Stipulation.
12 7. Based upon an analysis of the side-by-side noise data, the maximum
13 permitted noise levels would have to be modified for Class A and Class E Aircraft at
14 noise monitoring stations ("NMS") 1S, 2S, 3S, 4S, 5S, 6S, and 7S. The existing
15 sections of the Phase 2 Access Plan which regulate noise levels for scheduled
16 commercial operations are Sections 2.11 (Class A Aircraft) and 2.12 (Class E Aircraft).
17 Those sections of the Phase 2 Access Plan are set forth in Appendix A to this
18 Stipulation, which is incorporated by this reference and made an express part of this
19 document.
20 8. The parties have agreed to allow the County to amend the relevant sections
21 of the Phase 2 Access Plan (those sections quoted above) to modify the maximum
3
STipnAmNAND[PRoposED] ORDER CASE No. CV 85-1542 1'.)H(MCx)
15-29
I permitted noise levels for regularly scheduled commercial airline operations at JWA as
2 follows, effective October 1, 2015:
3 Class A Aircraft
4 To maintain parity with the existing noise compliance limits and to preserve
5 existing operational capacity and ANCA grandfathered status at JWA, the maximum
6 permitted noise levels, as measured at the Departure Monitoring Stations, must be
7 modified from 101.8 to 102.5 dB SENEL at NMS 1S, from 101.1 to 101.8 dB SENEL
8 at NMS 2S, from 100.7 to 10 1.1 dB SENEL at NMS 3S, from 94.1 to 94.8 dB SENEL
9 at NMS 4S, from 94.6 to 95.3 SENEL at NMS 5S, from 96.1 to 96.8 dB SENEL at
10 NMS 6S, and from 93.0 to 93.7 dB SENEL at NMS 7S.
11 Class E Aircraft
12 In order to maintain parity with the existing noise compliance limits and to
13 preserve existing operational capacity and ANCA grandfathered status at JWA, the
14 maximum permitted noise levels must be modified from 93.5 to 94.1 dB SENEL at
15 NMS IS, from 93.0 to 93.5 dB SENEL at NMS 2S, from 89.7 to 90.3 dB SENEL at
16 NMS 3S, from 86.0 to 86.6 dB SENEL at NMS 4S, from 86.6 to 87.2 dB SENEL at
17 NMS 5S, from 86.6 to 87.2 at NMS 6S and from 86.0 to 86.6 at NMS 7S.

SECTION I
GENERAL PROVISIONS
1.1 AUTHORITY
This document is the PHASE 2 COMMERCIAL AIRLINE ACCESS PLAN AND REGULATION (the
"PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN" or "PLAN") for John Wayne Airport, Orange County (SNA) ("John Wayne
Airport' or `JWA"). This PLAN is adopted by the County of Orange, California ("County"), in its
capacity as the proprietor and certificated operator of John Wayne Airport, and under the authority of
federal law, and laws of the State of California, which designate the County as the proper local entity to
balance the needs of the Orange County community for adequate commercial air transportation
facilities, and the desire of the local community for environmentally responsible air transportation
operations at John Wayne Airport.
This PLAN further implements mitigation measures identified and adopted under the
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CALIFORNIA PUBLIC RESOURCES CODE §§21001, et Seq.)
in connection with the County's consideration and approval of the JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT MASTER PLAN
(1985) and related actions ("the 1985 MASTER PLAN"), including certification of ORANGE COUNTY FIR
508/EIS in 1985 (BOARD OF SUPERVISORS RESOLUTION No. 85-255 [February 26, 1985] and BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS RESOLUTION No. 85-1290 [November 4, 1985]), and mitigation measures for the 1985
MASTER PLAN and related projects considered and approved in connection with the review and approval
JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT (As Amended Through July 21 October 1, 2015)
PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN Page 1-1
SECTION 1 - GENERAL PROVISIONS
by the Federal Aviation Administration of FIR 508/EIS under the NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY
ACT (42 USC §§4321, et seq), and related federal regulations.
This PLAN also implements projects considered and approved by the County as amendments to
the 1985 Settlement Agreement entered into by and between the County and the Orange County Board
of Supervisors (`Board"), the City of Newport Beach, Stop Polluting Our Newport, and the Airport
Working Group of Orange County, Inc., (the "Settlement Amendment"), including: (i) certification of
Environmental Impact Report 582 (EIR 582"), and approval of the Settlement Amendment on June 25,
2002 (Board of Supervisors Resolution No. 02-185 [June 25, 2002] and Board of Supervisors
Resolution No. 02-186 [June 25, 2002]), and approval of modifications to the Settlement Amendment
and Acceptance of Addendum 582-1 on December 10, 2002 (Board of Supervisors Resolution No.
02-381 [December 10, 2002]); and (ii) certification of Environmental Impact Report 617 ("EIR 617"),
and approval of the Settlement Amendment on September 30, 2014 (Board of Supervisors Resolution
No. 14-084 [September 30, 2014] and Board of Supervisors Resolution No. 14-088 [September 30,
2014]).
HISTORICAL NOTE
June 2003 Amendments. This section has been revised consistent
with the Orange County Board of Supervisors actions on June 25,
2002, certifying EIR 582 and approving the Settlement Amendment;
actions on December 10, 2002, accepting Addendum 582-1 and
approving certain modifications to the Settlement Amendment; and
actions on June 3, 2003, and June 24, 2003, authorizing and
approving implementing amendments to the ACCESS PLAN and

1.2 SHORT TITLE
In all communications regardingthis PLAN, it may be referred to as the "PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN."
1.3 CONSIDERATION OF PUBLIC UTILITIES CODE §§21690.5 - 21690.9
The County has adopted this PLAN in recognition of its proprietary and governmental
obligations under the STATE AERONAUTICS ACT (CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES CODE §§21001, et seq.).
In addition, and in connection with its consideration, formulation, adoption, and
implementation of this PLAN, the County (through the Board of Supervisors) has considered those
(As Amended Through 2015) JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT
Page 1-2 PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN
SECTION 1 - GENERAL PROVISIONS
factors set forth in CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES CODE §21690.9, and the Board of Supervisors has
made the following findings in connection with its consideration of those statutory provisions:
(a) The provisions of this PLAN are the result of apublic process extending over aperiod of
more than one (1) year, during which the County staff circulated to the public two
extensive staff reports defining and discussing the issues relevant to the formulation of
this PLAN. During this time, all interested parties had extensive opportunities to
comment on the issues in writing, and to present their views orally to the Orange County
Airport Commission and the Orange County Board of Supervisors. All such information
has been considered by the County in the formulation of this PLAN.
(b) In addition, the provisions of this PLAN further reflect the experience of the County in the
management and operation of JWA — and the public controversies resulting from
operation of the airport — for a period of approximately thirty-five (35) years; including
extensive experience in many forums with the views and interests of the federal
government, commercial aviation operators, general aviation operators and suppliers,
the Orange County business community, local public entities, and the residents of areas
in the general vicinity of the Airport. This experience too has been considered by the
County in the formulation of this PLAN.
(c) This PLAN is adopted in support of the policies of the State of California as reflected and
declared in CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES CODE §§21690.5(a) -(e), and is particularly
made in recognition of the importance of the tourist and recreation industry to the
economic health and well-being of the Orange County community. Orange County is a
major tourist and resort destination center, and a significant portion of the economy of
Orange County depends upon tourism and resort activities. The ability of the County to
maximize the passenger service levels at JWA, within defined environmental
constraints, is indispensable to the continued growth and economic vitality of the
tourism and resort segment of the Orange County economy.
(d) To the extent that this PLAN (and related agreements of the County of which this PLAN is
a part) creates "exclusive or limited agreements with ... a limited number of operators"
(CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES 'ODE §21690.8), the County has determined that the
provisions of this PLAN are necessary and supportive of each of the factors identified in
CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES CODE §§21690.9(a) -(g).
(e) This recitation of County consideration of the matters and issues referred to in
paragraphs (c) and (d) is not intended as a statement that such statutory provisions are
the only ones considered by the County and the Board of Supervisors in connection with
the formulation of this PLAN. Rather, this PLAN reflects consideration by the County of
all of its state and federal obligations and responsibilities as the proprietor of JWA.

normal service after unscheduled maintenance at JWA; (ii) a departure without revenue passengers on
board which is necessary to reposition an aircraft for unscheduled maintenance; (iii) a departure without
revenue passengers on board which is necessary to reposition an aircraft from JWA to another airport in
connection with a formal published schedule change; or (iv) a departure conducted pursuant to a noise
qualification test which has been approved by the Airport Director under Section 10.
Except as expressly provided in this PLAN, all Commercial Air Carrier Class A and permanent
Class E departures at JWA are regulated departures and require an ADD allocation including, without
limitation, `regularly scheduled," "charter," "maintenance," and "ferry" flights.

December 1990 Amendments. The December 1990 amendments
deleted the reference in this section to "single gear" aircraft
because Airport staff discovered that there are no such aircraft with
gross weights in excess of the rated pavement strengths at the
Airport, and the reference was therefore removed as unnecessary.
July 1999 Amendments. The Maximum Permitted Gross Takeoff
Weight for dual tandem gear was revised from two hundred
thirty-four thousand (234,000) pounds to three hundred thousand
(300,000) pounds to accurately reflect existing pavement strength at
JWA as of July 1, 1999.
September 2010 Amendments. The Maximum Permitted Gross

HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1994 Amendments. On December 6, 1994, the Orange
County Board of Supervisors approved a series of amendments to
the PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN in order to provide the Airport Directorwith
the discretion to allocate Regulated (Class A or Class AA) ADDS to
Commercial Cargo Carriers consistent with the findings made in
connection with the Board of Supervisors' certification and
approval of COUNTY ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT NO. 552. This
definition was added consistent with these amendments.
December 2005 Amendments. The December 2005 amendments
made clarifying changes to this section of the PLAN to delete the
phrase "wheels up" and to add the phrase "as measured at any JWA
Noise Monitoring Station" in order to provide JWA staff a method to
more accurately measure the departure time of the aircraft.
July 2015 Amendments. The July 2015 amendments made clarifying
changes to section 2.33(1) to add the phrase "as measured at any
JWA Noise Monitoring Station for arrivals" in order to accurately
reflect the method used by JWA staff to measure the arrival time of
the aircraft. There are no regulatory noise limits during daytime
hours at 8N, 9N, or 1 ON; rather, these monitoring stations are used to
measure the time of arriving flights at JWA.
2.34 PERMITTED COMMERCIAL OPERATIONS HOURS
Permitted Commercial Operations Hours means: (i) for departures on Monday through Saturday,
0700 to 2200 hours, as measured at any JWA Noise Monitoring Station; (ii) for departures on Sundays,

SECTION 2 - DEFINITIONS
0800 to 2200 hours, as measured at any JWA Noise Monitoring Station; (iii) for arrivals on Monday
through Saturday, 0700 to 2300 hours, as measured at any JWA Noise Monitoring Station; and (iv) for
arrivals on Sundays, 0800 to 2300 hours, as measured at any JWA Noise Monitoring Station.
HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1990 Amendments. The December 1990 amendments
made clarifying changes to this section by adding the phrase "as
measured at any JWA Noise Monitoring Station" in each of the
section subparts. Some carriers had questioned whether the
operation periods defined by this section were meant to be
measured at the time of aircraft "push -back" from the gate, at the
time of "wheels -up" during the departure procedure, or at some
other time.
Defining the time restrictions by reference to the time as measured
at the Noise Monitoring Stations is consistent with the purposes of
the restrictions defined in this section, and it is the most liberal
possible interpretation for the aircraft operators, since either
"push -back" or "wheels -up" will occur on every departure before
the noise event is recorded at the Noise Monitoring Stations.
2.35 PLAN YEAR
For the period from 1990 to 2011, Plan Year means the period from April 1 of each year to March
31 of the following year, except that: (i) the first Plan Year of this PLAN shall be the period from October

accordingly for the 1990-91 and 2011 Plan Years. For the period from January 1, 2012 through the
remaining term of the PLAN (December 31, 2030), Plan Year means the period from January 1 to
December 31 of each year.

HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1990 Amendments. The December 1990 amendments
added the second sentence of this section. This addition was
necessary to correct an oversight in preexisting County policy. The
"settlement agreement" between the County and the City of
Newport Beach (and other relevant County documents and policies)
require that, generally, all commercial passenger activity at JWA
occur in and through the Thomas F. Riley terminal. The one
exception to this limitation is that commercial operations by

November 2011 Amendments. This section was added to the
ACCESS PLAN to reflect a decision by the Orange County Board of
Supervisors on November 8, 2011 to encourage and promote
non-stop service from JWA to international destinations.
3.2 USE OF ALLOCATED ADDS
All ADDS and Authorized Departures of any class, including Class E operations conducted
under the authority of Section 3.4 or Section 4, may be used (subject to all other relevant provisions of
this PLAN, and all other County ordinances, rules, regulations, and policies) at the discretion of the
Qualified Air Carrier, except that unused Authorized Departures, or unused portions ofADDs, allocated
for use during one (1) Plan Year, may not be carried forward for use in any later Plan Year(s).
3.3 AIR CARRIER SEAT CAPACITY ALLOCATIONS
The County separately allocates Seat Capacity to the Qualified Air Carriers serving JWA in
order to serve two regulatory purposes of the County: (i) to provide the maximum feasible flexibility to
the Qualified Air Carriers in selecting the mix of aircraft types used by them in their service at JWA; and
(ii) to provide a pre -determined and fair mechanism by which Air Carrier capacity reductions can be
effected if the County determines that reductions are necessary to ensure adherence to the MAP
Limitation.
3.3.1 ANNUAL SEAT CAPACITY ALLOCATIONS
Subject to Section 3.3.2, all other relevant provisions of this PLAN, and subject to all
other County rules, regulations, and written agreements between the County and the Air Carriers listed

SECTION 3 - REGULAR ALLOCATIONS
3.3.2 REQUIREMENT OF ANNUAL SEAT CAPACITY RATIFICATION
Although each Air Carrier receiving a Seat Capacity allocation under Section 3.3.1 is
presumed to have permission to use that Allocated Seat Capacity during each Plan Year, the policies,
goals, and regulatory objectives of the County in its management and operation of JWA require that the
County take reasonable steps to encourage the maximum passenger service level atJWA during any Plan
Year, within the MAP Limitation. It is not in the interests of the County or the air traveling public if
Qualified Air Carriers leave significant percentages of their Section 3.3.1 Seat Capacity unused during
any Plan Year. In addition, the County has not made the tentative Seat Capacity allocations for the
purpose of facilitating or encouraging anti-competitive conduct where Qualified Air Carriers might deny
their competitors access to operations capacity which they do not intend to use themselves. Therefore,
the allocations of Section 3.3.1 are, in each Plan Year, tentative only, and subject to full compliance with
this section by all Qualified Air Carriers.
(a) Not later than one hundred fifty (150) days prior to the beginning of each Plan
Year, each Qualified Air Carrier shall file with the Airport Director an executed
ANNUAL SEAT CAPACITY ALLOCATION REQUEST FORM (AIR CARRIER)
(APPENDix F-4) which describes the Air Carrier's actual anticipated Seat
Capacity usage for the Plan Year, including any Section 3.3.1 Seat Capacity, and
any supplemental Seat Capacity allocations which the carrier anticipates
requesting during the Plan Year.
(b) The Airport Director shall review all timely ANNUAL SEAT CAPACITY
ALLOCATION REQUEST FORMS (AIR CARRIER) received by him and shall, as
soon as practicable, but before the commencement of the Plan Year for which the
requests have been submitted, give notice to each Qualified Air Carrier
submitting a request of its actual Plan Year Seat Capacity allocation, including
any supplemental Seat Capacity allocations to individual carriers which, at the
time the AirportDirector gives his notice, have been authorized for allocation by
the Board of Supervisors.
(c) Each Qualified Air Carrier is presumed to be allocated an amount of Seat
Capacity for each Plan Year equal to the amount of Seat Capacity specified for
the carrier in Section 3.3.1. If. (i) a Qualified Air Carrier's ANNUAL SEAT
CAPACITY ALLOCATION REQUEST FORM (AIR CARRIER) requests an allocation
of Seat Capacity equal to or less than that Carrier's tentative Section 3.3.1
allocation; and if (ii) the level and type of projected Plan Year operations
reflected on the ANNUAL SEAT CAPACITY ALLOCATION REQUEST FORM (AIR
CARRIER) appears reasonably consistent with the Qualified Air Carrier's fleet
mix and historical operations pattern, the Airport Director shall approve the Seat
Capacity request, up to the amount of the Qualified Air Carrier's designated
Section 3.3.1 Seat Capacity. If the Airport Director determines that the
requested Seat Capacity is significantly in excess of what the requesting Air
JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT (As Amended Throughctober 1, 2015)
PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN Page 3-9
SECTION 3 - REGULAR ALLOCATIONS
Carrier can reasonably be expected to use during the Plan Year, he shall allocate
to the Air Carrier the amount of Seat Capacity which the carrier reasonably can
be expected to require in support of its intended Plan Year operations at JWA.
(d) If the Airport Director determines, after a review of the ANNUAL SEAT
CAPACITY ALLOCATION REQUEST FORMS (AIR CARRIER), that the request of
any Qualified Air Carrier is in excess of what it reasonably may be expected to
use during the Plan Year (but including, and taking into consideration, requests
made under Section 3.4.2), he shall give notice of his preliminary decision to the
requesting Air Carrier within twenty (20) days after his receipt of that Air
Carrier's ANNUAL SEAT CAPACITY ALLOCATION REQUEST FORM (AIR
CARRIER) (and prior to making the allocation under paragraph (c)), or as soon
thereafter as practicable. The Airport Director's notice shall state the basis for
his conclusions. The requesting Air Carrier may respond in writing to the
Airport Director within ten (10) days after the effective date of the Airport
Director's notice (see, Section 11.2.3), providing whatever additional
information or arguments to the Airport Director which the carrier believes
further explains the basis and reasonableness of its request.
HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1990 Amendments. The December 1990 amendments
deleted the word "have" between "which" and "at" in subsection (b)
of this section.
July 2015 Amendments. The July 2015 amendments modified the
time period (from not later than seventy-five (75) days to not later
than one hundred fifty (150) days prior to the beginning of each Plan
Year) within which each Qualified Air Carrier must file with the
Airport Director an executed Annual Seat Capacity Allocation
Request Form (Air Carrier) (Appendix F-4) in order to better
accommodate the Plan Yearallocation process.
3.3.3 UTILIZATION OF SEAT CAPACITY ALLOCATIONS
Except for supplemental Seat Capacity allocated under Section 4.2.4 or 4.3, no Qualified
Air Carrier may conduct operations at JWA during any Plan Year with aircraft with Seat Capacities
which, cumulatively, exceed the actual annual Seat Capacity allocation made to the Air Carrier under
Section 3.3.2(c). The Qualified Air Carrier's operations may consist of the number of Class A and
permanent Class E Departures which does not exceed the allocations made to the Air Carrier under
Section 3. 1, and any additional Class EDepartures available to the Air Carrier under Section 3.4. Any
Qualified Air Carrier who intends to operate Class E Aircraft at JWA shall comply fully with the
reporting obligations of Section 3.4 before initiating any Class E operations.

HISTORICAL NOTE
June 2003 Amendments. This section was revised to reflect the
Orange County Board of Supervisors' approved amendments to the
1985 Settlement Agreement, which include defining all regulated
passenger flights as Class A ADDS, eliminating the Class AA/Class
A ADD definition/distinction, and allocating a limited number of
Regular Class E ADDS on a permanent basis through the term of
this PLAN.
3.3.4 NO SEAT CAPACITY CARRYFORWARDS
Allocated Seat Capacity may be used only in the Plan Year for which it was allocated;
and all Plan Year Allocated Seat Capacity expires completely, and without further action of the County,
at the close of business on the last day of the Plan Year. Any Allocated Seat Capacity unused during any
Plan Year may not be carried forward for use in any succeeding Plan Year.
3.3.5 VOLUNTARY REDUCTION OF SEAT CAPACITY ALLOCATION
A Qualified Air Carrier may voluntarily and temporarily reduce its Section 3.3.2
allocation of Seat Capacity for any Plan Year for reallocation by the County (at the County's sole and
exclusive discretion) under the provisions of Section 4 or Section 7 by submitting to the Airport Director
an executed VOLUNTARY REDUCTION OF SEAT CAPACITY ALLOCATION FORM (AIR CARRIER)
(APPENDix F-6). For purposes of determining compliance with the minimum use requirements of
Section 8.3.6, the VOLUNTARY REDUCTION OF SEAT CAPACITY ALLOCATION FORM (AIR CARRIER)
must: (i) be given for a calendar quarter other than the last quarter of any Plan Year, (ii) be delivered to
the Airport Director not later than forty-five (45) days prior to the date for which the reduction in Seat
Capacity is to be effective; (iii) specify the precise number of Passenger Seats being "returned" for
possible reallocation; and (iv) specify the exact period of time for which the Air Carrier will not be using
the Seat Capacity.
For purposes of compliance with the requirements of Section 8.3.6, a notice may not be
given under this section for more than two (2) consecutive Plan Years.
HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1990 Amendments. The December 1990 amendments
deleted a limitation on the total period of time during the 15 -year
term of the PLAN for which a notice may be given under this section
to thirty-six (36) months, and substituted the phrase in the last
sentence of this section, "a notice may not be given under this
section for more than two (2) consecutive Plan Years." This
liberalized the limitation, but ensured that the section would not be

July 2015 Amendments. The July 2015 amendments made this
Section consistent with the Section 3.1.3 Voluntary Reduction of
ADD allocation requirements for purposes of determining
compliance with the minimum use requirements of Section 8.3.6.
3.3.6 ALLOCATIONS OF ADDS AND SEAT CAPACITY TO NEW ENTRANT AIRLINES IN
SUPPORT OF THE FORMATION OF ASSOCIATED OPERATING GROUPS
(a) Any Qualified Air Carrier, or an Associated Operating Group of Qualified Air
Carriers ("incumbent operator(s)") which wishes to conduct business at JWA in
association with an Air Carrier which is not then a Qualified Air Carrier
("proposed new entrant"), may submit a written request to the Airport Director
requesting that the County accept a return from the requesting incumbent
operator(s), and reallocate to the proposed new entrant, a Regular ADD and
associated Seat Capacity allocation from incumbent operator(s) Regular ADD
(and associated Section 3.3.2 Seat Capacity) allocation. Upon receipt of such a
request, the Airport Director shall promptly make a recommendation to the
Board of Supervisors regarding the requested reallocation.
(b) No proposed new entrant Air Carrier may receive a reallocation of Regular
ADDS under the authority of this section unless and until it meets the
requirements of Sections 1.6 and 8.1 of this PLAN, and has otherwise completed
all other established County requirements necessary for the carrier to become a
Qualified Air Carrier at JWA.
(c) The provisions of this section are an accommodation by the County in its
administration of the PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN intended to facilitate, where fair and
reasonable, the operating flexibility of Qualified Air Carriers serving JWA.
Nothing in this section shall be construed or interpreted in any manner
inconsistent with Section 1.5 of this PLAN, or in any manner which is inconsistent
with comparable covenants of any person in any written agreement with the
County.

Board of Supervisors' approval of amendments to the 1985
Settlement Agreement.
3.5 COMMUTER CARRIER PASSENGER CAPACITY ALLOCATIONS
There is no pre -allocated operational capacity for Qualified Commuter Carriers under this
PLAN. It has been the experience of the County that Commuter Air Carrier operations at JWA frequently
involve operation patterns, requirements, schedules, and equipment substantially different from Air
Carriers, and that the needs of the commuter operators, and the regulatory objectives of the County, are
best served if the County's regulations for JWA, at least in certain respects, recognize these differences
and accommodate them to the extent reasonably possible. It has also been the experience of the County
(As Amended Through dA310ctober 1, 2015) JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT
Page 3-16 PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN
SECTION 3 - REGULAR ALLOCATIONS
in the operation of JWA that continued, long-term operations by commuter operators are often more
uncertain than continued, long-term operations by Air Carriers.
In order to best respond to the needs and uncertainties of commuter operations at JWA under this
PLAN, Qualified Commuter Carriers receive specific Passenger Capacity Allocations as the basis for
their operations at JWA. Such allocations are made each year, and are effective only for the Plan Year
for which the allocations were made. No Passenger Capacity Allocations to Commuter Air Carriers
may be carried forward beyond the Plan Year for which the allocations were made.
HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1990 Amendments. The December 1990 amendments
made grammatical changes to this section.
3.5.1 PASSENGER CAPACITY SET ASIDE FOR COMMUTER AIRLINES
In each Plan Year the Airport Director shall reserve a capacity of four hundred thousand
(400,000) annual passengers of the totalMAP Limitation for priority distribution to Qualified Commuter
Carriers ("Commuter Passenger Capacity"). To the extent that a Commuter Passenger Capacity of less
than four hundred thousand (400,000) annual passengers is allocated to Qualified Commuter Carriers
during any Plan Year, or if, for any period of time, previously allocated Commuter Passenger Capacity
is returned to the County, the Airport Director may consider the unused capacity for purposes of
formulating any recommendations he may make for supplemental allocations under Section 4.
HISTORICAL NOTE
June 2003 Amendments. This section was revised to reflect a
decision by the Orange County Board of Supervisors to modify the
passenger capacity set aside for commuter airlines from four
hundred thousand (400,000) to five hundred thousand (500,000) in
order to accommodate the potential impact of the modifications to
the definition of a Commuter AirCarrierand to anticipate the further
evolution of commuter airline operations patterns and code -sharing
arrangements.
July 2015 Amendments. This section was revised to modify the
passenger set aside for Commuter Air Carriers from five hundred
thousand (500,000) to four hundred thousand (400,000) in order to
reflect the continuing evolution of Commuter Air Carrier operations
patterns and code -sharing arrangements.

SECTION 3 - REGULAR ALLOCATIONS
3.5.2 COMMUTER PASSENGER CAPACITY ALLOCATION PROCEDURES
All Passenger Capacity Allocations shall be made only under the following procedures:
(a) Not later than one hundred fifty (150) days prior to the beginning of each Plan
Year, each Qualified Commuter Carrier shall submit an executed PASSENGER
CAPACITY ALLOCATION REQUEST FORM (COMMUTER CARRIER) (APPENDIX
F-7) ("PCAR") to the Airport Director. The requesting Commuter Carrier shall
provide sufficient operational information to allow the Airport Director to make
an evaluation of the reasonableness of each Commuter Carrier's request for a
Passenger Capacity Allocation.
(b) Any Commuter Carrier which, prior to the date specified in paragraph (a) of this
section, has been placed on the commuter waiting list in accordance with the
procedures of Section 3.7.2, may also submit a request for aPassenger Capacity
Allocation under this section. If such a request is made, the Airport Director
shall promptly notify the Board of Supervisors, and make his recommendation to
the Board on whether it is feasible to permit operations by any waiting list
Commuter Carriers in the Plan Year for which the request is made. No
Passenger Capacity Allocation shall be made to any requesting waiting list
Commuter Carrier unless the Board of Supervisors has first authorized the
Airport Director to commence the processes necessary for such a Commuter
Carrier to become a Qualified Commuter Carrier.
(c) If the Airport Director determines, after a review of the PCAR, that any
requesting CommuterAir Carrier's request is in excess of what it reasonably may
be expected to use during the Plan Year, he shall so notify the requesting carrier
within twenty (20) days after his receipt of the PCAR, or as soon thereafter as
practicable, stating the basis for his conclusions. The requesting Commuter Air
Carrier may respond in writing to the Airport Director within ten (10) days after
the Airport Director's notice, providing such additional information or
arguments to the Airport Director as the carrier may believe further explains the
basis and reasonableness of its request.
(d) Sixty (60) days prior to the beginning of each Plan Year, or as soon thereafter as
practicable, the Airport Director shall make a Passenger Capacity Allocation to
each Qualified Commuter Carrier. The Airport Director's decision regarding
the amount of each such allocation shall be final, and he may impose conditions
on the allocation(s) as he deems necessary or desirable to implement the goals
and policies of this PLAN, and all County rules, regulations, and publicly stated
policies of the Board of Supervisors regarding the use and regulation of JWA.
These conditions may include, but are not limited to, making an initial allocation

to one or more Commuter Air Carriers which is, in whole or in part, for a period
less than one (1) Plan Year.
HISTORICAL NOTE:
July 2015 Amendments. The July 2015 amendments modified the
time period (from not later than one hundred twenty (120) days to not
later than one hundred fifty (150) days prior to the beginning of each
Plan Year) within which each Qualified Commuter Carrier must file
with the Airport Director an executed Passenger Capacity Allocation
Request Form (Commuter Carrier) (Appendix F-7) in order to better
accommodate the Plan Yearallocation process.
3.5.3 COMMUTER CARRIER ALLOCATION PRIORITIES
Subject to the full discretion of the County and the Airport Director under this PLAN,
Passenger Capacity Allocations will normally be made as follows:
(a) If, for any Plan Year, the total Passenger Capacity Allocation requests from all
Qualified Commuter Carriers do not exceed four hundred thousand (400,000)
annual passengers, then, subject to the discretion of the Airport Director under
Section 3.5.2, each Qualified Commuter Carrier shall receive its requested
allocation.
(b) If, for any Plan Year, the total Passenger Capacity Allocation requests exceed
four hundred thousand (400,000) annual passengers, then, subject to the
discretion of the Airport Director under Section 3.5.2, those Qualified Commuter
Carriers requesting less than their prorata share of the Commuter Passenger
Capacity shall receive their requested allocations, and the remaining Commuter
Passenger Capacity shall be divided equally among the other requesting
Qualified Commuter Carriers.
HISTORICAL NOTE

3.5.4 VOLUNTARY REDUCTION OF PASSENGER CAPACITY ALLOCATION
By delivery of a VOLUNTARY REDUCTION OF PASSENGER CAPACITY ALLOCATION
FORM (COMMUTER CARRIER) (APPENDIx F -g) (PCAR Form) to the Airport Director, a Commuter Air
Carrier may voluntarily reduce its Passenger Capacity Allocation for any Plan Year, and the County, in
its sole and exclusive discretion, may reallocate the "returned" capacity under Section 4 or Section 7. For
purposes of determining compliance with the minimum use requirements of Section 8.3.7, the
VOLUNTARY REDUCTION OF PASSENGER CAPACITY ALLOCATION FORM (COMMUTER CARRIER)
must: (i) be given for a calendar quarter other than the last quarter of any Plan Year, (ii) be delivered to
the Airport Director not later than forty-five (45) days prior to the date for which the reduction in
capacity is to be effective; (iii) specify the amount of Passenger Capacity being "returned" for
reallocation; and (iv) specify the exact period of time for which the Commuter Air Carrier will not be
using the Passenger Capacity Allocation.
In addition, and for purposes of determining compliance with the requirements of
Section 8.3.7: (i) the number of authorized passengers relinquished under this section may not exceed
thirty percent (30%) of the sum of the total Passenger Capacity Allocation made to the Commuter
Carrier under this Section 3.5, and any supplemental Passenger Capacity Allocations requested and
made to the Commuter Carrier under Section 4.4; and (ii) no Commuter Carrier may utilize the
provisions of this section more than a maximum cumulative period of time of twenty-four (24) months
during the term of this PLAN.
HISTORICAL NOTE
July 2015 Amendments. This section was revised to provide
consistency between the Air Carrier and Commuter Carrier voluntary
reduction of allocation requirements and the maximum cumulative
period of time the Carriers may utilize the voluntary reduction
provisions. In addition, this section was revised to require the PCAR
Form to be delivered to the Airport Director not later than forty-five
(45) days prior to the date for which the reduction in operations is to
be effective rather than forty-five (45) days prior to the first day of the
calendar quarter for which the reduction in operations is to be
effective.

more Affiliated Commuter Carriers, and any two (2) or more Commuter Carriers
which are members of an Associated Operating Group, shall be treated as a
single Commuter Carrier, and they shall submit a combined PCAR for any
requested allocation of Passenger Capacity.
(b) Authorized Commuter Carriers submitting a combined PCAR under
subparagraph (a) of this section may make an express election on the PCAR of
the respective percentage of Passenger Capacity to be allocated to each of them
under the single capacity allocation required by subparagraph (a) of this section.
If no such election is made, the Passenger Capacity Allocation shall be divided
equally among each Affiliate Commuter Carrier or Commuter Carrier member
of an Associated Operating Group.
(c) Any failure to comply with the requirements of this section, or any action by a
Commuter Carrier inconsistent with the purposes and requirements of this
section in respect of the request for, or operation of, a Passenger Capacity
Allocation, shall be sufficient cause for the Airport Director or the County to
modify or terminate the Passenger Capaci tyAllocation to any Commuter Carrier
violating this subsection, or operating in any manner inconsistent with the
allocation process required by this subsection.
HISTORICAL NOTE
October 1994 Amendments. On October4, 1994, the Orange County
Board of Supervisors approved a series of amendments to the
affiliate policy provisions of the ACCESS PLAN. These amendments
included a number of regulations which apply to the formation of,
allocations to, and general operation of Associated Operating
Groups.
3.6 ALLOCATION OF CLASS E ADDS TO COMMUTER AND COMMERCIAL CARGO
CARRIERS
3.6.1 COUNTY POLICY CONSIDERATIONS
(a) John Wayne Airport operates within an extremely confined geographical space of
approximately five hundred four (504) acres, with less than four hundred (400)
JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT (As Amended Throughctober 1, 2015)
PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN Page 3-21
SECTION 3 - REGULAR ALLOCATIONS
acres available for airfield operations. There is no significant undeveloped area
of the airfield suitable for normal Commercial Cargo operations. Virtually all
existing land and structural space has long been designated for commercial
passenger and general aviation uses, and normal Commercial Cargo operations
cannot be accommodated at JWA without a significant displacement of
preexisting aeronautical uses. At the time of adoption of the JOHN WAYNE
AIRPORT MASTER PLAN (1985), there was no expressed demand for Commercial
Cargo facilities at JWA, and the 1985 MASTER PLAN did not, therefore, designate
or contemplate construction of significant Commercial Cargo facilities, or
significant Commercial Cargo operations.
(b) Principally because of present and anticipated future congestion on the Southern
California freeway system, certain Commercial Cargo Carriers have continued
to indicate a desire to conduct regular cargo operations at most — if not all —
Southern California air carrier airports — including JWA. This desire to increase
the number of airports from which they conduct regular operations is related
primarily to the "next day" package delivery services offered by some cargo
airlines.
(c) The Commercial Cargo Carriers expressing a desire to conduct Regularly
Scheduled Air Service atJWA have indicated to the County their desire to operate
their aircraft on "long-haul' route segments which, as a practical matter, would
require the allocation of at least two hundred seventy-five (275) Class A
Authorized Departures to each cargo carrier. The possible diversion of Class A
ADDS from passenger service to cargo service raises significant issues with
respect to anticipated airport revenues and potential environmental impacts. By
providing for an allocation of Regulated Class A Authorized Departures to
Commercial Cargo operators as evaluated in County FIR 582, and as approved
by the Orange County Board of Supervisors on June 25, 2002, and December 10,
2002, the County has addressed the existing demand for all cargo service at JWA.
(d) The impacts of Commercial Cargo Carriers with Air Carrier Aircraft at JWA has
been addressed generally in County FIR 552 and County FIR 582. Future
applications by Commercial Cargo Carriers for allocations of operational
capacity beyond the level of service authorized by the County after consideration
of FIR 582 and after approval of amendments to the 1985 Settlement Agreement
would impose significant impacts and constraints on airport facilities and other
airport users, and any future application for such service would have to be
evaluated for environmental and operational impacts based upon circumstances
which exist at the time any such application is made.
(e) Within the extremely limited operational and physical capability of JWA to
support regular operations by Commercial Cargo Carriers or Commuter Cargo
(As Amended Through dA310ctober 1, 2015) JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT
Page 3-22 PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN
SECTION 3 - REGULAR ALLOCATIONS
Carriers, and within the framework of this PLAN and previously declared County
policy regarding the development and use of facilities and operational capacity at
JWA, the County will continue to cooperate with potential cargo operators willing
to comply with the County's policy and regulatory goals for JWA in an attempt to
meet a reasonable level of legitimate demand for cargo service at JWA to the
extent that that objective can be realized without significantly impacting other
airport users, and without jeopardizing the County's financial, regulatory, and
policy commitments and objectives.
(f) The provisions of this PLAN allow the County to address Commercial Cargo
issues without delaying the implementation and commencement of Phase 2
operations (e.g., Section 6.3.3).
HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1994 Amendments. On December 6, 1994, the Orange
County Board of Supervisors approved a series of amendments to
the PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN in order to provide the Airport Directorwith

the Orange County Board of Supervisors' approval of amendments
to the 1985 Settlement Agreement, including defining all regulated
passenger flights as Class A flights, eliminating the Class AA/Class
A Aircraft definition/distinction, and authorizing the allocation of up
to four (4) permanent Class A ADDS for Commercial Cargo Carriers.
3.6.2 COMMERCIAL CARGO OPERATIONS
(a) Any Commercial Cargo Air Carrier or Commuter Cargo Carrier who wishes to
operate Regularly Scheduled Air Service at JWA solely for the purpose of
carrying cargo or freight, and who will not carry Commercial Passengers on any
flight operations to or from JWA, may request an allocation of a Regular Cargo
Class A or Class E ADD for its operations.
(b) Pursuant to amendments to this PLAN authorized by the Board of Supervisors in
1994 after Board certification of County EIR 552, and amendments to this PLAN

Regularly Scheduled Air Service as a Commercial Cargo Carrier or Commuter
Cargo Carrier from, or using, any physical facilities at JWA without the prior
written consent of the Board of Supervisors.
(f) Commercial Cargo Carriers may only use aircraft in operations at JWA which
have been qualified by the Carrier under the requirements of Section 10.
(g) No Commercial Cargo Carrier may conduct operations at JWA unless it has first
submitted to the Airport Director a detailed operations plan and the Airport
Director has given written approval of those operations. The request must be
delivered to the Airport Director not less than thirty (30) days prior to the day on
which the Cargo Air Carrier intends to commence Commercial Cargo Carrier
operations, and each Commercial Cargo Carrier shall submit additional,
updated, or revised operations forms at times during or prior to the
commencement of any Plan Year which would otherwise be required of Air
Carriers conducting operations at JWA under the provisions of this PLAN. The
Airport Director may impose such conditions or limitations in granting any
Commercial Cargo Carrier operations request which he believes necessary to
ensure compliance with the terms, provisions, and limitations of this PLAN, and
any other requirements which have been defined by the Board of Supervisors as
County policy in respect of Commercial Cargo Carrier operations at JWA,

3.9 OPERATIONS BY ASSOCIATED OPERATING GROUPS
hi 1994, the Board of Supervisors adopted certain amendments to this PLAN, including the
provisions of this section, which were intended to increase the flexibility and discretion of Commercial
Air Carriers and Commuter Carriers in structuring their operations at JWA in the use of ADDS and
related operating capacity allocated to them by permitting the formation and operation of Associated
Operating Groups at JWA. It was not the purpose of these amendments, and it is not the intent of the
County, that these provisions be interpreted or applied in a manner which circumvents, or is inconsistent
with, the basic premise of capacity allocation fairness, or the environmentally based limitations of this
PLAN. It is not the intent of the County that the provisions of this PLAN be interpreted or applied in a
manner which unfairly prejudices other authorized Commercial Air Carriers or Commuter Carriers in
the capacity allocation processes of this PLAN. Those provisions of this PLAN which relate to allocations
to, and operations by, Associated Operating Groups will be interpreted and applied by the Airport
Director and the County in a manner which ensures that the provisions of this PLAN will be implemented
in afair and reasonable manner, consistent with the County's assurances to the United States of America
under Airport Improvement Program grant agreements, and consistent with the basic objectives of the
County to ensure fair and reasonable operational opportunities to all Qualified Air Carriers and
Qualified Commuter Carriers serving JWA. If the Airport Director determines that any person or
persons are attempting to use the Associated Operating Group provisions of this PLAN in a manner
inconsistent with the County's contractual obligations to the United States, or the basic objectives of the
County in the fair and efficient administration of this PLAN, the Airport Director shall promptly notify
the Board of such activities and recommend appropriate action by the County.
It is also not the intent of the Associated Operating Group provisions of this PLAN to encourage
illegal anti-competitive conduct by any Regularly Scheduled Commercial User of JWA. The principle
antitrust enforcement authority over commercial aviation activities rests with the United States
Departments of Justice and Transportation. If the County or the Airport Director is advised by any
appropriate federal authority that it believes that operations by any Associated Operating Group at JWA
are occurring in a manner inconsistent with any antitrust law or policy of the United States, the Airport
Director shall promptly advise the Board of the law or policy of the United States and of the relevant
facts and circumstances and shall make a recommendation to the Board regarding appropriate action by
the County to cooperate with the relevant federal authorities. The County reserves the right to modify,
condition or withdraw its approval of any operations by, or allocations of operating capacity in any form
to, any Associated Operating Group in the event that the County is advised by appropriate federal
authorities that such operations are occurring in a manner inconsistent with any federal antitrust law or
policy.

3.9.1 FORMATION OF ASSOCIATED OPERATING GROUPS
(a) Subject to the limitations of Section 3.10 and of all requirements of this section,
any two (2) or more Qualified Air Carriers, any two (2) or more Qualified
Commuter Carriers, or any combination of Qualified Air Carriers and Qualified
Commuter Carriers (other than a combination of one (1) Qualified Air Carrier
and one (1) Qualified Commuter Carrier), may declare the existence of an
Associated Operating Group by filing with the Airport Director a fully
completed and executed DECLARATION OF FORMATION OF ASSOCIATED
OPERATING GROUP (APPENDIx F-21) ("FORM F-21") not later than forty-five
(45) days prior to the date on which any operations are conducted under the
authority of this section. The Airport Director shall review the FORM F-21. Ifthe
FORM F-21 has been fully completed and executed, and if it appears that the
proposed Associated Operating Group operations as disclosed on the FORM F-21
will otherwise be conducted in full compliance with this PLAN and all other
applicable County rules, regulations, and contractual requirements, the Airport
Director shall advise the Qualified Air Carriers within thirty (30) days after the
Airport Director's receipt of the FORM F-21 that the County has approved
operations by the Associated Operating Group.
(b) Any (i) two (2) or more Affiliated Air Carriers, (ii) two (2) or more Affiliated
Commuter Carriers, or (iii) two (2) or more Commuter Carriers simultaneously
Affiliated with the same Air Carrier operating at JWA, shall be deemed by the
County and the Airport Director to be an Associated Operating Group for all
purposes under this PLAN. No such Air Carrier or Commuter Carrier may
operate other than its Regular ADD or Authorized Seat Capacity allocation
unless it has first complied fully with the requirements of Section 3.9 and Section
8.2.4 of this PLAN. Whether or not such an Associated Operating Group
conducts operations under a FORM F-21 operations proposal, it shall be treated as
an Associated Operating Group for purposes of the Section 3.10 and all
reallocation provisions of this PLAN, including the allocation of RON positions,
any and all allocations of supplemental operating capacity, and any reallocation
of operating capacity under Section 7 of this PLAN.
(c) No Qualified Air Carrier or Qualified Commuter Carrier which has requested
and been authorized to conduct operations at JWA as part of an Associated
Operating Group shall conduct its operations in any manner inconsistent with the
operations proposal specified in the then -current approved FORM F-21 on file
with the Airport Director, or under a subsequent approved FORM F-22 filed under
subparagraph (d) of this subsection.
(d) AnyAssociated Operating Group may amend or modify its FORM F-21 operating
proposal by submitting to the Airport Director for approval under this section at

any time during the Plan Year an AMENDED DECLARATION OF FORMATION OF
ASSOCIATED OPERATING GROUP (APPENDIx F-22) ("FORM F-22"). Any FORM
F-22 must be filed with the AirportDirector not less than thirty (30) days prior to
the first date on which any change in operations by the Associated Operating
Group are made or effected by any member operator of the Associated Operating
Group. The Airport Director shall review and, if appropriate, approve any
amended or modified FORM F-22 under the criteria and procedures, and within
the time specified in subparagraph (a) of this section.
(e) Each Associated Operating Group must file a Form F-21 at least once during
each Plan Year. No Form F-21 or Form F-22 may be effective or approved for
more than one (1) Plan Year, and no such approval may carry forward to
succeeding Plan Years. Nothing in this section prohibits any Qualified Air
Carrier or Associated Operating Group from submitting subsequent requests
under subparagraph (a) of this section for one (1) or more successive Plan
Years.
HISTORICAL NOTE
July 2015 Amendments. This section was revised to reduce the
period of time from forty-five (45) days to thirty (30) days that any
Associated Operating Group must deliver an Amended Declaration
of Formation of Associated Operating Group Form (Appendix F-22)
to the Airport Director. This time period adjustment accommodates
concerns voiced by the Air Carriers that it is sometimes difficult to
submit an Amended Declaration of Formation of Associated
Operating Group Form forty-five (45) days prior to changes to the
Associated Operating Group.
3.9.2 AIR CARRIER OPERATIONS UNDER ASSOCIATED OPERATING GROUPS —
REGULAR ADDS AND ASSOCIATED SECTION 3.3.2 SEAT CAPACITY
Qualified Air Carriers operating as an approved Associated Operating Group may
conduct operations using their combined Regular ADD allocations, and any Supplemental ADD or
Supplemental Authorized Departure allocation made to the Associated Operating Group during any
Plan Year, in any manner consistent with the currently effective and approved FORM F-21 for that group.
So long as the combined operations of the member Air Carriers of an approved Associated Operating
Group do not exceed the limitations of this PLAN, including, but not limited to, the minimum and
maximum use, maximum permitted noise levels, and any other provision or limitation of the PLAN
otherwise applicable to a Qualified Air Carrier, the member Air Carriers may define their respective
level of use, their combined ADD and Authorized Departure allocation, and any Class E Departure
operations conducted under the authority of allocations made to any member Air Carrier pursuant to
Section 3.4 of this PLAN.

ASSOCIATED OPERATING GROUP
The Airport Director may not approve, and no group of Air Carriers shall conduct
operations as anAssociated Operating Group, ifthe proposed Associated Operating Group would utilize
more than fifty percent (50%) of the authorized operating capacity under this PLAN in any Plan Year. To
the extent that an Associated Operating Group would be in violation of the limitation of this subsection
only as a result of the allocation of supplemental operating capacity under Section 4 of this PLAN, or the
reallocation of Regular operating capacity under Section 7 of this PLAN, the Airport Director will not
allocate any such operating capacity to the Associated Operating Group or any of its member Air
Carriers or Commuter Carriers to the extent that the allocation would cause a violation of the limitations
of this subsection.
HISTORICAL NOTE
October 1994 Amendments. On October4, 1994, the Orange County
Board of Supervisors approved a series of amendments to the
affiliate policy provisions of the ACCESS PLAN. These amendments
include a number of regulations which apply to the formation of,
allocations to, and general operation of Associated Operating
Groups. This section was added consistent with these approved
amendments.
3.10 ASSOCIATED OPERATING GROUP COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER ALLOCATION
PROVISIONS OF THE PLAN
Regularly Scheduled Commercial Users conducting operations at JWA as members of an
authorized Associated Operating Group shall be permitted to exercise the same discretion as other
Qualified Air Carriers and Qualified Commuter Carriers with respect to provisions of the PLAN
affording discretion with respect to the use of the allocated operating capacity, including the "voluntary
reduction" provisions of Sections 3.3.5, 3.5.4, and 5.11 of the PLAN. Air Carriers and Commuter
Carriers conducting operations as anAssociated Operating Group shall be treated as a single Air Carrier
or a single Commuter Carrier (as appropriate) for purposes of. (i) calculating RON allocations under
Section 5 of the PLAN; (ii) making allocations of supplemental operating capacity under Section 4 of the
PLAN; and (iii) for purposes of any reallocations of capacity to incumbent operators under Section 7 of
the PLAN.
3.10.1 RON ALLOCATIONS
(a) Member carriers of any Associated Operating Group wishing to receive aRON
allocation under Section 5 of this PLAN shall submit a single combined RON
JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT (As Amended Throughctober 1, 2015)
PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN Page 3-33
SECTION 3 - REGULAR ALLOCATIONS
ALLOCATION REQUEST FORM (AIR CARRIER) (APPENDIx F-14), and
DECLARATION OF FORMATION OF ASSOCIATED OPERATING GROUP FORM
(APPENDIx F-21). The member carriers, however, shall specify on the
APPENDIx F-14 and APPENDIx F-21 forms the total number of loading bridge
(i.e., gate or hard -stand) RON positions requested by each member carrier.
Subject to the limitations set forth below, in any calculation of allocations of
RON positions under Sections 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5 of this PLAN, all Air Carrier
members of an Associated Operating Group which actually declare their intentto
use a RON position on the APPENDIx F-14 and APPENDIx F-21 form filed by the
Associated Operating Group shall be considered as a single Air Carrier, and
their relevant Regular ADD allocations shall be combined for purposes of the
calculation of the RON positions to be allocated to the Associated Operating
Group. Regular ADDS of Air Carriers which are members of an Associated
Operating Group, but which do not intend, or which do not in fact, use at least
one (1) RON position during the Plan Year for which the RON is allocated, shall
not be included in calculating the RON positions to be allocated to the Associated
Operating Group.
(b) Associated Operating Group agreements shall be disregarded for the limited
purpose of the one (1) loading bridge allocation guarantee provided in Section
5.3 of the ACCESS PLAN. Therefore, each requesting Qualified Air Carrier shall
receive an allocation of at least one (1) loading bridge RON position.
(c) In the event any Air Carrier which is allocated one (1) loading bridge RON
position consistent with the requirements of Section 5.3 does not meet the
minimum utilization of RON allocation requirements specified in Section 8.3.9
for the loading bridge RON position allocated, the Air Carrier loading bridge
RON position shall be terminated immediately, consistent with the requirements
specified in Section 8.7.1 of the ACCESS PLAN, and the loading bridge RON
position shall be reallocated in accordance with Section 5.5 of this PLAN.
(d) If any Associated Operating Group is formed during aPlan Year, the Plan Year
allocation of RON positions shall be recalculated by the Airport Director under
this subsection, and as if the Associated Operating Group existed at the time the
RON allocations were first made. It is the intent of this subparagraph that carriers
not be permitted to manipulate the RON allocation process by forming
Associated Operating Groups during a Plan Year, and after the annual RON
allocation has been made, in order to obtain an advantage over otherAir Carriers
in the application of the mathematical formula used under Section 5 of this PLAN
for purposes of allocating RON positions. The Airport Director shall make any
adjusted allocation required as aresult of the provisions of this subparagraph and
shall reallocate any excess RON position(s) resulting from application of this
subparagraph in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.5 of this PLAN.

SECTION 3 - REGULAR ALLOCATIONS
(e) If any member of anAssociated Operating Group whose RegularADD allocation
was used for purposes of making the initial Plan Year allocation of RON
positions abandons its use of all RON positions allocated to it during any Plan
Year, the abandonment shall be deemed an abandonment by the Associated
Operating Group, and the abandoned RON positions shall be reallocated in
accordance with Section 5.5 of this PLAN.
(f) Subject to the provisions of this subsection, members of anAssociated Operating
Group may, after compliance with Section 5.2.2 of the PLAN, use RON positions
allocated to the Group as they may determine to be appropriate from time to time
during any Plan Year (or other period for which the RON position(s) has been
allocated).
HISTORICAL NOTE
January 2004 Amendments. This section was revised to provide a
one (1) loading bridge allocation guarantee, as provided in Section
5.3 of the ACCESS PLAN, subject to certain specific requirements.
3.10.2 ALLOCATIONS OF SUPPLEMENTAL OPERATING CAPACITY
In any allocation of supplemental operating capacity under Section 4 of this PLAN (or
otherwise), all members of an Associated Operating Group shall be treated as a single Air Carrier or a
single Commuter Carrier (as appropriate) for purposes of making such allocations.
3.10.3 REALLOCATIONS OF REGULAR ADDS
(a) In any reallocation ofRegularADDs under Section 7 of this PLAN (or otherwise),
all Air Carrier members of an Associated Operating Group shall be treated as a
single Air Carrier for purposes of making such allocations.
(b) In making an allocation of RegularADD(s) to any Associated Operating Group
under the authority of this subsection and Section 7 of this PLAN, the ADD(s)
shall be deemed to have been made to the member Air Carrier(s) in accordance
with the following priorities:
(i) If an allocation of one or more Regular ADDS from an incumbent
operator to a "new entrant' member of an Associated Operating Group
has been made under Section 3.3.6, the incumbent operator(s) will be
deemed to have priority within the Associated Operating Group (i.e., as
between the incumbent operator and the "new entrant') to receive the

reallocated ADD of the same class originally reallocated to the new
entrant operator under Section 3.3.6 until the incumbent operator has
been allocated the same number ofADD(s) which were reallocated from
it to the new entrant member of the Group.
(ii) In all other circumstances, the reallocated ADD will be deemed to have
been allocated as a Regular ADD to the member Air Carrier of the
Associated Operating Group with the fewest number of RegularADDs in
the class ofADD which is available for reallocation. In the event two (2)
or more memberAir Carriers of an Associated Operating Group have an
equal number ofRegularADDs in the class ofADD being reallocated, the
Airport Director shall follow the "tie -breaking" procedures of Section
5.4(ii) of the PLAN.
HISTORICAL NOTE
November 2008 Amendment. On November 18, 2008, the Orange
County Board of Supervisors approved amendments to Section
3.10.3 of the ACCESS PLAN to clarify that the reallocation priority
relates only to the reallocation priority within an Associated
Operating Group.
3.10.4 EFFECT OF FORMATION OF ASSOCIATED OPERATING GROUP ON
WITHDRAWAL PRIORITIES UNDER SECTION 6 OF THE PLAN
In the event of a reallocation ofRegularADDs (and any associated Seat Capacity) under
Section 3.3.6 of this PLAN, the Airport Director shall adjust the Class A and Class E ADD withdrawal
priority lists, and the Seat Block withdrawal priority list, in accordance with Section 7.4 of this PLAN.

4.1 COUNTY POLICY AND DISCRETION
Because of the current shortfall of airport capacity in Orange County to serve the full level of
County -generated air passenger demand, and because the extent of this capacity shortfall is expected to
increase consistently and substantially during the term of this PLAN, it is the policy of the County, within
the Map Limitation, Regulated ADD Limitation, and other environmental, operational, and safety
limitations applicable to operations at JWA, to serve the maximum feasible number of Commercial
Passengers at JWA during each Plan Year.
The County reserves to itself the right, and the sole and exclusive discretion, to make allocations
of supplemental operational capacity, whether by means of supplemental Authorized Departures,
supplemental Seat Capacity, supplemental Commuter Passenger Capacity, or otherwise, in such a
manner, to such an extent, to such persons, and on such terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate
and as best serving, in the sole and exclusive judgment of the Board of Supervisors, the goals, policies,
and regulations of the County in its management, operation, and development of JWA.
4.2 SUPPLEMENTAL ALLOCATIONS OF CLASS A AND CLASS E DEPARTURES
4.2.1 AIRPORT DIRECTOR RECOMMENDATIONS
Not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the commencement of any Supplemental
Allocation Period, the Airport Director may make a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors, for its
consideration on a regular agenda, regarding the number and class of supplemental departures to be
allocated for use during the Plan Year or the Supplemental Allocation Period.

SECTION 5
RON ALLOCATIONS
The limited physical facilities available at JWA during the period of this PLAN for parking Air
Carrier and Commuter Carrier aircraft requires that the County, in the interests of safe and efficient
operations at JWA, and in support of an appropriate mix of uses of the airport, limit the number of Air
Carrier and Commuter Carrier RON positions, control the location and use of Air Carrier and
Commuter Carrier RON positions, and place certain other restrictions on RON activity at the airport.
5.1 AIR CARRIER RON LIMITATIONS
It is the present policy of the County to assign and, if necessary, allocate RON positions to
Qualified Air Carriers for periods of one (1) Plan Year.
5.1.1 LIMIT ON NUMBER OF RON AIRCRAFT
Except for such emergency circumstances as the Airport Director may determine
reasonably requires authorizing a temporary RON to a specific Qualified Air Carrier, on any day during
the period of this PLAN, there shall not be more than twenty-seven (27) Air Carrier aircraft which are
permitted to RON at JWA.
HISTORICAL NOTE
September 1993 Amendments. In September 1993, the Airport
Director revised the number of available RON positions from
twenty-two (22) positions to twenty-seven (27) positions.
5.1.2 RON ALLOCATION REQUIRED
Except as the Airport Director may specifically direct in an emergency situation, no Air
Carrier shall cause any aircraft to RON at JWA unless the Air Carrier has received for the current Plan
Year aRON position allocation from the Airport Director.
5.1.3 PROHIBITION AGAINST EXCESS RON AIRCRAFT
Except as the Airport Director may specifically direct in an emergency situation, no Air
Carrier shall, at any time, cause more aircraft to RON at JWA than the number of RON positions which
have been allocated to it for the current Plan Year by the Airport Director.

5.1.5 USE OF AIR CARRIER APRON MANDATORY
Except as the Airport Director may specifically direct in an emergency situation, no Air
Carrier shall, at any time, operate, park, or cause any aircraft to: (i) RON on the leased premises of any
Fixed Base Operator at JWA; or (ii) operate or park on any other pavement surface at JWA where the
aircraft has a gross weight in excess of the Maximum Permitted Ground Operations Weight for that
pavement surface. It is the intent of this section that Air Carriers will park their aircraft, for RON or any
other purpose, only on the air carrier apron adjacent to the airline passenger terminal.
5.2 AIR CARRIER RON ALLOCATION REQUESTS
5.2.1 TIMELY RON REQUEST FORM REQUIRED
Not later than one hundred fifty (150) days prior to the beginning of each Plan Year, each
Qualified Air Carrier wishing to receive an allocation of RON position(s) for that Plan Year shall submit
a completed request to the Airport Director on a RON ALLOCATION REQUEST FORM (AIR CARRIER)
(APPENDIx F-14). Each Qualified Air Carrier requesting an allocation of RON positions for that Plan
Year must specify both the total number of loading bridge RON positions requested (i. e., hard -stand and
gate positions) and the total number of apron RON positions requested.

5.3 RON ALLOCATION PROCEDURES
If the RON ALLOCATION REQUEST FORMS (AIR CARRIER) submitted to the Airport Director
indicate that more than twenty-seven (27)Air CarrierRON spaces have been requested for the following
Plan Year, he shall allocate the Air Carrier RON spaces in accordance with the following priorities and
procedures:
(i) Any RON request for a period less than the full Plan Year shall be denied; if further
allocation is necessary, then
(ii) Any RON request intended for use for less than six (6) days per week shall be denied; if
further allocation is necessary, then
(iii) Any RON request for an aircraft scheduled to depart after 0900 hours shall be denied; if
further allocation is necessary, then
(iv) RON spaces shall be allocated to the requesting Qualified Air Carriers in the proportion
that their Regular Class A and permanent Class E ADDS (less any ADDS not actively
assigned to the carrier at the time of the allocation [see, e.g., Section 3.1.4]) bears to the
total number of Regular Class A and Class E ADDS allocated to all requesting Air
Carriers, except that the RON allocation formula shall be modified to consider any
permanent Class EADDs allocated on atwo-for-one (2:1) basis as compared to Class A
allocations, and except that each requesting Qualified Air Carrier shall receive an
allocation of at least one (1) loading bridge RON position (i.e., gate or hardstand
position). If a loading bridge RON is not requested, each requesting Qualified Air Carrier
shall receive an allocation of at least one (1) RON apron position. Fractional allocations
shall be rounded to the nearest whole number, except that the total Air Carrier RON
allocation shall not exceed twenty-seven (27) RON positions.
JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT (As Amended Through "October 1, 2015)
PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN Page 5-3
SECTION 5 - RON ALLOCATIONS
(v) The Air Carriers shall make specific loading bridge and apron RON position assignments
by consensus within thirty (30) days from the date when the loading bridge and apron
RON allocations are made. If the Air Carriers fail to reach a consensus regarding the
specific loading bridge and apron RON position assignments within that time period, the
Airport Director shall make specific loading bridge and apron RON position assignments
in the manner, and within the timeframe, he determines is appropriate. In exercising his
discretion, the Airport Director may take into account such factors as which Air Carriers
have been required to utilize the hard -stand position(s) over the past Plan Year(s).
(vi) The Airport Director reserves to himself the right, and the sole and exclusive discretion,
to make allocations of gate and other RONs in a manner, to such an extent, to such
persons, and on such terms and conditions as he may deem appropriate and as best
serving, in his sole and exclusive judgment, the goals, policies, and regulations of the
County in its management and development of JWA.
Preference for loading bridge RON assignments (i. e., gate or hardstand positions) shall be
given to an aircraft scheduled to depart on or before 0730 hours (local time).
(vii) All aircraft using a loading bridge RON position (i.e., gate or hardstand) for departures
scheduled at or before 0900 hours (local time) shall occupy the loading bridge RON
position for a period of not more than forty-five (45) minutes, beginning at 0645 hours
(local time), Monday through Saturday, and beginning at 0745 hours (local time) on
Sunday. This requirement may also be imposed by the Airport Director on aircraft
occupying remote RON positions not at Loading Bridge RON positions during the early
morning departure time period, at or before 0900 hours (local time).
HISTORICAL NOTE
September 1993 Amendments. In September 1993, the Airport
Director revised the number of available RON positions from
twenty-two (22) positions to twenty-seven (27) positions.
June 2003 Amendments. This section was revised to modify the
RON allocation procedures to provide the Airport Director with the
discretion to allocate gate and other RONs and to impose a
turn -around time -limit rule for gate RON positions. These revisions
are consistent with the Orange County Board of Supervisors'
actions on June 25, 2002, and December 10, 2002, certifying EIR 582
and approving the Settlement Amendment; and actions on June 3,
2003, and June 24, 2003, authorizing and approving implementing

consensus within thirty (30) days from the date when the loading
bridge and apron RON allocations are made by the Airport Director.
5.4 "TIE -BREAKING" RON ALLOCATION PROCEDURES
In the event application of the allocation formulas of Section 5.3 results in two (2) or more
requesting Qualified Air Carriers having an equal mathematical "remainder" interest in one (1) or more
available RON positions, and if meeting all such allocation requests would result in an allocation of more
than twenty-seven (27) Air Carrier RON positions, then the Airport Director shall apply the following
"tie -breaking" procedures:
(i) The "remainder" RON position(s) shall be allocated to the Air Carrier(s): (A) with the
lowest number of allocated RON positions before use of the tie -breaking procedures; and
(B) which received fewer RON position allocations than they originally requested. If
further allocation is necessary, then
(ii) The Airport Director shall conduct a coin toss which affords each of the affected Air
Carriers an equal chance to be selected for the allocation. The Airport Director shall
give at least seventy-two (72) hours verbal notice to the local station manager or other
local official of each affected airline of the time and place where the coin toss will be
held and allow such representatives, if they so desire, to be present at the time of the coin
toss.
HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1990 Amendments. The December 1990 amendments
changed the notice period required by this section from twenty-four
(24) hours to seventy-two (72) hours. The amendment was

SECTION 5 - RON ALLOCATIONS
requests which have been denied, prioritizing them by reference to the fractional share of one (1) RON
space to which each requesting Qualified Air Carrier would otherwise have been entitled at the time of
its request ("the RON waiting list"). The eligible Air Carriers shall be listed beginning with the Air
Carrier with the most negative fraction to the Air Carrier with the most positive fraction (as calculated
by subtracting the number of RON positions allocated to the carrier from the unrounded calculation
required by Section 5.3(iv)). In the event any Air Carrier thereafter abandons or forfeits an allocated
RON position, the Airport Director may reallocate the available RON position for the remainder of the
Plan Year by offering allocation of the position to the Air Carrier(s) in the order in which they appear on
the RON waiting list. Any Air Carrier which receives a reallocated RON position under this section shall
then be placed at the end of the RON waiting list.
HISTORICAL NOTE
July 1999 Amendments. In July 1999, the term "largest' was
replaced with the term "most' in order to accurately reflect the
meaning of this section.
5.6 COMMUTER CARRIER RON LIMITATIONS
It is the present policy of the County to assign and, if necessary, to allocate RON positions to
Qualified Commuter Carriers for periods of one (1) Plan Year.
5.6.1 LIMIT ON NUMBER OF RON AIRCRAFT
Except for such emergency circumstances as the Airport Director may determine
reasonably requires authorizing aRONposition to a specific Qualified Commuter Carrier, and except for
RON positions authorized under Section 5.12, on any day during the period of this PLAN there shall not
be more than six (6) Commuter Carrier aircraft which are permitted to RON at JWA. Although not
subject to the numerical limits of this section, any RON positions authorized under Section 5.12 are
subject to the provisions of Sections 5.6.2 through 5.6.4.
5.6.2 RON ALLOCATION REQUIRED
Except as the Airport Director may specifically direct in an emergency situation, no
Commuter Carrier shall cause any aircraft to RON at JWA unless the Commuter Carrier has received for
the current Plan Year aRON position allocation or approval from the Airport Director under Section 5.8
or Section 5.12.

5.6.3 PROHIBITION AGAINST EXCESS RON AIRCRAFT
Except as the Airport Director may specifically direct in an emergency situation, no
Commuter Carrier shall, at any time, cause more aircraft to RON at JWA than the total number of RON
positions currently: (i) allocated to it under Section 5.8; and (ii) approved by the Airport Director under
Section 5.12.
5.6.4 USE OF SPECIFIC RON POSITION REQUIRED
Except as the Airport Director may specifically direct in an emergency situation, no
Commuter Carrier shall cause any aircraft to RON at JWA at any place other than the specific RON
position assigned to that aircraft (or approved under Section 5.12) by the Airport Director.
5.6.5 USE OF AIR CARRIER APRON MANDATORY
Except as the Airport Director may specifically direct in an emergency situation, and
except as provided in Section 5.12, no Commuter Carrier shall, at any time, operate, park, or cause any
aircraft to: (i) RON on the leased premises of any Fixed Base Operator at JWA; or (ii) operate or park on
any other pavement surface at JWA where the aircraft has a gross weight in excess of the Maximum
Permitted Ground Operations Weight for that pavement surface. It is the intent of this section that,
except as permitted by Section 5.12, Commuter Carriers will park their aircraft, for RON or any other
purpose, only on the air carrier apron adjacent to the airline passenger terminal.
5.7 COMMUTER CARRIER RON ALLOCATION REQUESTS
Not later than one hundred fifty (150) days prior to the beginning of each Plan Year, each
Qualified Commuter Carrier wishing to receive an allocation of RON position(s) for that Plan Year shall
submit a request to the Airport Director on a RON ALLOCATION REQUEST FORM (COMMUTER
CARRIER) (APPENDIx F-16).
HISTORICAL NOTES
June 2003 Amendments. The June 2003 amendments made

July 2015 Amendments. The July 2015 amendments revised this
section to increase the period of time from one hundred twenty (120)
days to one hundred fifty (150) days prior to beginning of each Plan
Year that each Qualified Commuter Carrier must deliver a RON
Allocation Request Form (Appendix F-16) to the Airport Director.
This time period adjustment provides the necessary time for the
Airport to process and allocate RON capacity prior to each Plan
Year.
JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT (As Amended Through "October 1, 2015)
PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN Page 5-7
SECTION 5 - RON ALLOCATIONS
5.8 COMMUTER CARRIER RON ALLOCATION PROCEDURES
The Airport Director shall allocate RON positions to the requesting Qualified Commuter
Carriers in increments of one (1) RON position, beginning with the Commuter Carrier with the largest
Passenger Capacity Allocation made under Section 3.5 for the Plan Year for which the RON allocation
is made, and proceeding sequentially to the requesting Commuter Carrier with the smallest Passenger
Capacity Allocation. The Airport Director shall continue the allocation to requesting Qualified
Commuter Carriers using the same "top-down" order of allocation until all requesting Qualified
Commuter Carriers have received their requested RON position allocations, or until six (6) Commuter
Carrier RON positions have been allocated, which ever first occurs.
5.9 COMMUTER CARRIER RON WAITING LIST
For each Plan Year in which the number of allocated Commuter Carrier RON positions is less
than the total number of requested Commuter Carrier RON positions, the Airport Director shall maintain
a list of Qualified Commuter Carrier RON requests which have been denied, prioritizing them by use of
the Section 5.8 allocation order list ("the Commuter Carrier RON waiting list"). The eligible Commuter
Carriers shall be listed beginning with the first requesting Qualified Commuter Carrier which did not
receive a requested RON position (using and assuming the sequential allocation process of Section 5.8).
In the event any Commuter Carrier thereafter abandons or forfeits an allocated RON position, the
Airport Director may reallocate the available space for the remainder of the Plan Year by offering
allocation of the abandoned or forfeited RON position to the Commuter Carrier(s) in the order in which
they appear on the RON waiting list. Any Commuter Carrier which receives a reallocated RON position
under this section shall then be placed at the end of the Commuter Carrier RON waiting list.
5.10 NOTIFICATION TO CARRIERS
In the event an allocation of RON positions is required under Section 5.3 or Section 5.8, the
Airport Director shall notify the affected Air Carriers or Commuter Carriers in writing of the results of
his RON position allocation as soon as reasonably practicable. The Airport Director shall make
reasonable efforts to give the notice not less than sixty (60) days prior to the beginning of the Plan Year
for which the allocation is made.
5.11 VOLUNTARY ABANDONMENT OF RON ALLOCATION
Any Air Carrier or Commuter Carrier which has received an allocation of aRON position may
voluntarily abandon the allocation by giving written notice to the Airport Director of its intent to cease
using the allocation for the remainder of the Plan Year not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the date
on which the allocation will be abandoned. If notice of a voluntary abandonment is given within the time
permitted by this section, the provisions of Sections 8.3.9 and 8.7.1 shall not apply to the abandonment.

HISTORICAL NOTES
December 1990 Amendments. The December 1990 amendments
added the phrase "for the remainder of the Plan Year," and
substituted "ninety (90)" days for "thirty (30)" days. The first
change was a clarifying amendment. The second change was
recommended by staff to allow a sufficient period of time to
reallocate the RON position in a manner which will maximize
achievement of the County's objective of maximizing use of
allocated RON positions.
July 2015 Amendments. The July 2015 amendments revised this
section to decrease the period of time from ninety (90) days to
forty-five (45) days for any Air Carrieror Commuter Carrierto provide
the Airport Director with notice of its intent to cease using a RON
position.
5.12 SUPPLEMENTAL COMMUTER CARRIER RON POSITIONS
Because aircraft typically used by Commuter Carriers are relatively small in size, and because,
during the term of this PLAN, the demand for Commuter Carrier RON positions may significantly exceed
the space available to accommodate such aircraft, the County may permit (in its sole and exclusive
discretion), in individual cases, Qualified Commuter Carrier aircraft to RON at locations other than the
air carrier ramp. All such allocations are subject to the additional conditions of the following
subsections:
5.12.1 WRITTEN AUTHORIZATION REQUIRED
No Commuter Carrier shall RON any aircraft at JWA unless it has first received: (a) a
RON position allocation under Section 5.8; or (b) written authorization from the Airport Director under
the authority of this section which specifies: (i) the exact location of the authorized RON position; and
(ii) the duration of the authorization, which shall not be greater than one (1) Plan Year.

5.12.3 AIRPORT DIRECTOR AUTHORIZATION
In reviewing any request made under Section 5.12.2, the Airport Director shall consider:
(i) the size of the aircraft proposed for use of the requested RON position and its impact on the design
strength of the pavement surface at the intended RON position; (ii) the impact use of the requested RON
position would have on the safe and efficient operation of JWA; (iii) the potential impact of the request,
if any, on general aviation facilities, operations at, and use of, JWA; and (iv) the JWA passenger service
goals of the County.
If he finds that use of the requested RON position would not jeopardize the pavement
surfaces, the ability of general aviation to use and operate at JWA at a level, and in a manner, consistent
with declared County policy on general aviation use of JWA, or interfere with the safe and efficient
operation of JWA; and if he finds that use of the requested RON position would enhance the ability of the
County to realize its JWA passenger service level goals, the Airport Director may give written
authorization for use of the RON position for a period of time not greater than one (1) Plan Year, subject
to such conditions as the Airport Director may impose. The provisions of this section do not preclude
subsequent or sequential RON requests.
5.12.4 USE OF AUTHORIZED RON POSITION MANDATORY
Except as specifically directed by the Airport Director in an emergency situation, no
Commuter Carrier which has received authorization to cause an aircraft to RON at JWA under Section
5.12.3 shall cause any aircraft to RON at any location other than the exact location specified in the
Airport Director's written authorization.
5.12.5 PROHIBITION AGAINST LARGE AIRCRAFT RON
Except as the Airport Director may specifically direct in an emergency situation, no
Commuter Carrier operating `Air Carrier" Class E Aircraft under the provisions of Section 3.4.2 shall
cause any such aircraft to RON at JWA, unless, and only to the extent that: (i) the Air Carrier affiliate has
received aRON allocation; (ii) the Air Carrier Affiliate has consented in writing to the use of one (1) or
more of its allocated RON positions to its Commuter Carrier Affiliate; and (iii) the Airport Director has
consented in writing to the use of the RONposition(s) by the Commuter Carrier Affiliate. Any approval

CAPACITY WITHDRAWALS
6.1 GENERAL WITHDRAWAL AUTHORITY
The County reserves the right to withdraw previously allocated operational capacity at such
times, on such conditions, and for such reasons as the County, in its sole and exclusive discretion,
determines are appropriate to ensure that the MAP Limitation and the RegulatedADD Limitation are not
exceeded during any Plan Year, or for any other reason. To the extent practical, and absent emergency
circumstances (as determined in the sole and exclusive discretion of the Board), it is the present intent
of the County to conduct such capacity withdrawals in accordance with the terms of this section. Nothing
in this section is intended to limit the discretion or actions of the County in effecting or implementing
capacity withdrawals: Rather, this section is intended to provide guidance to the Regularly Scheduled
Commercial Users of JWA and to County staff regarding the probable capacity withdrawal procedures
and policies of the County in non -emergency situations.
6.2 WITHDRAWAL PROCEDURES
6.2.1 MONITORING OF REGULATED DEPARTURES AND PASSENGERS
During each Plan Year, the AirportDirector shall monitor continuously the actual extent
of commercial departures in each aircraft noise class conducted at JWA, and the actual number of
Commercial Passengers served at JWA by all Regularly Scheduled Commercial Users. The Airport
Director shall adopt procedures intended to predict (to the extent reasonably feasible), at the end of any
month during any Plan Year, the Plan Year level of Commercial Passengers served at JWA, and the
number of Class A, permanent Class E, and other Class E Departures which will be operated during the
Plan Year.
HISTORICAL NOTE
June 2003 Amendments. This section was revised to define all
regulated passenger flights as Class A flights, to eliminate the Class
AA/Class A Aircraft definition/distinction, and to reference the new
permanent Class E ADDS. These revisions are consistent with the
Orange County Board of Supervisors' actions on June 25, 2002, and
December 10, 2002, certifying EIR 582 and approving the Settlement

6.2.2 RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CAPACITY WITHDRAWAL
Whenever the Airport Director determines that there is a substantial risk that Regularly
Scheduled Commercial Users operating at JWA will exceed the MAP Limitation or Regulated ADD
Limitation during any Plan Year for any reason other than the violation of this PLAN by any specific Air
Carrier(s) or Commuter Carrier(s), he shall promptly take the following actions:
(a) The Airport Director shall prepare and submit to the Board of Supervisors a
report for its consideration on a regular Board of Supervisors agenda which, at a
minimum: (i) describes the specific circumstances leading to preparation of his
report; and which (ii) makes specific recommendations regarding capacity
withdrawals necessary to ensure that the MAP Limitation and Regulated ADD
Limitation are not exceeded; and
(b) The Airport Director shall advise all Qualified Air Carriers and Qualified
Commuter Carriers of his recommendations for capacity withdrawals, and the
date on which the Board of Supervisors will consider the matter.
In formulating and presenting his recommendations for capacity withdrawals, the
Airport Director shall attempt to formulate recommendations which, to the extent practical and feasible:
(i) maintain an appropriate level of equity and fairness among all approved users of JWA; (ii) will best
serve the interests of the air traveling public using JWA; and (iii) which are consistent with the policies
and objectives of the County in its management and operation of JWA.

6.2.3 WITHDRAWAL PRIORITIES AND POLICIES
The County retains and reaffirms its sole and exclusive discretion to require mandatory
withdrawals of operational capacity in any form if the County determines such action to be appropriate
to ensure continued compliance with the MAP Limitation or the Regulated ADD Limitation, or for any
other reason. There is no capacity withdrawal priority as among the operational capacity categories set
forth below. However, in many circumstances, the County presently expects that it generally will prefer
capacity withdrawals in the following order: (i) Seat Blocks; (ii) supplemental Authorized Departures;
(iii) supplemental Passenger Capacity; (iv) Regulated ADDS; and then (v) Passenger Capacity.
However, if capacity withdrawals are required by the County, the withdrawal will be structured in a
manner which best serves the interests of the County, local communities, and the air traveling public; and
(As Amended Through dA310ctober 1, 2015) JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT

the withdrawal will be structured in light of then -existing circumstances, facts, and commercial
operations patterns atJWA.
HISTORICAL NOTE

second subsection (iv) to (v).
6.3 AIR CARRIER CAPACITY WITHDRAWALS
In accordance with action approved by the Board of Supervisors on November 14, 1989, the
County conducted a preliminary lottery to establish a withdrawal priority for certain of the RegularADDs
allocated under Sections 3. 1.1 and 3.1.2, and to establish a withdrawal priority for certain SeatBlocks of
the Seat Capacity tentatively allocated to the Qualified Air Carriers under Section 3.3.1. These lotteries
were conducted subject to ratification by the Board of Supervisors. By adoption and approval of this
PLAN, the Board of Supervisors ratified those lotteries. The protocol under which the initial lotteries
were conducted is reflected in APPENDIX A.
On May 28, 2003, the County tentatively allocated the new operating capacity authorized by the
Settlement Amendment approved by the Orange County Board of Supervisors on June 25, 2002, and
December 10, 2002, regarding the development and use of JWA. In light of the new of additional

were required to be reestablished. In accordance with actions approved by the Board of Supervisors on
June 3, 2003, authorizing implementing amendments to the ACCESS PLAN and the allocation of new
capacity, the County conducted a new lottery on June 5, 2003, to establish a new withdrawal priority for
certain of the RegularADDs and to establish a new withdrawal priority for certain Seat Blocks of the Seat
Capacity tentatively allocated to the Qualified Air Carriers. This lottery was once again conducted
subject to ratification by the Board of Supervisors. By adoption and approval of amendments to this
PLAN, the Board of Supervisors ratifies the results of the lottery. The protocol under which the lottery
was conducted is reflected in APPENDIX G. APPENDIX C reflects the results of the withdrawal lottery for
Regulated ADDS subject to priority withdrawal. APPENDIX D reflects the results and order of the
withdrawal lottery for Seat Blocks subject to priority withdrawal.
On July 21, 2015, the County approved the re -allocation of existing capacity authorized by the
Settlement Amendment and approved by the Orange County Board of Supervisors on September 30,
2014, and July 21, 2015 and approved the allocation of additional permanent Class EADDs. In light of
the re -allocation of existing capacity and the allocation of additional permanent Class EADDs, the Air
Carrier capacity withdrawal priorities were required to be reestablished. In accordance with actions
approved by the Board of Supervisors on July 21, 2015, authorizing implementing amendments to the

priorities for certain of the Regular ADDS and certain of the Seat
Blocks of Seat Capacity allocated to the Qualified Air Carriers.
6.3.1 SEAT BLOCKS
The County will withdraw Seat Blocks in the order reflected in APPENDIX D, beginning
with the Seat Block identified as Seat Block "Withdrawal Priority 1," and proceeding sequentially until
the required number of Seat Blocks has been withdrawn. In any subsequent Seat Block withdrawal
during the term of this PLAN, whether or not in the same Plan Year as the original withdrawal, the
withdrawal order will begin with the neat Seat Block in order after the last Seat Block withdrawn. The
Airport Director shall keep appropriate records of the withdrawal of Seat Blocks to ensure that
subsequent withdrawals are appropriately sequential in accordance with the intent of this section.
6.3.2 SUPPLEMENTAL DEPARTURES
Whenever the County determines that it is necessary to withdraw previously allocated
authority to conduct supplemental departures in any aircraft classification, the County would, absent
unusual circumstances, intend to withdraw an equal number of departures from all Qualified Air
Carriers which received an allocation of the supplemental departures.

6.3.3 REGULATED ADDS
If the County determines that it is necessary to withdraw Regulated ADDS for purposes
of reallocation, or for any other purpose, and regardless of the period of time for which the ADD will be
withdrawn, the County will normally withdraw Regulated ADDS, or portions of Regulated ADDS, in the
order reflected in APPENDIX C, beginning with the Class A or permanent Class EADD (as appropriate)
identified as ADD "Withdrawal Priority I," and proceeding sequentially until the required number of
Class A and/or permanent Class E ADDS have been withdrawn. In any subsequent Regulated ADD
withdrawal during the term of this PLAN, whether or not in the same Plan Year as the original
withdrawal, the withdrawal order will begin with the neat Class A or permanent Class E ADD in order
after the last Regulated ADD withdrawn. The Airport Director shall keep appropriate records of the

Wheneverthe County determines that it is necessaryto withdraw previously allocated Passenger
Capacity, the County would, absent unusual circumstances, intend: (i) to first withdraw any
supplemental Passenger Capacity allocated during the Plan Year by withdrawing the capacity prorata
from the Qualified Commuter Carriers who have received any such supplemental allocation during the
current Plan Year, as determined by the amount of supplemental Passenger Capacity allocated to each
of the carriers; and then, if necessary, (ii) to withdraw non -supplemental Passenger Capacity authority
prorata from all Qualified Commuter Carriers, as determined by the non -supplemental Passenger
Capacity allocation made to them under Section 3.5 at the beginning of the Plan Year.

upon any of the following events:
7.1.1 BREACH OF AGREEMENT
The carrier breaches or defaults under any provision of its lease, operating agreement, or
any other written agreement with the County. If the breach or default is capable of cure, then the operator
will cease to be a Qualified Air Carrier or Qualified Commuter Carrier if, within ten (10) days after
delivery of a written notice of default to the operator from the County, the operator has failed to effect a
complete cure of its breach or default.
7.1.2 VIOLATION OF RULE, REGULATION, OR ORDINANCE
The carrier violates any rule, regulation, or ordinance of the County in its operations at
JWA, including (but not limited to) any provision of this PLAN.
7.1.3 LOSS OF OPERATIONAL CAPACITY
The carrier disposes, or otherwise ceases to have operational control for a period of more
than thirty (30) days, of sufficient operational Class A or Class E Aircraft (as appropriate for its
allocations or operations) necessary to operate a regular schedule at JWA with its allocated Regular
ADDS, or its Passenger Capacity Allocation; except that: If this section applies only in part to an Air
Carrier (if for example, it has both ClassA and Class EADD allocations and disposes of its Class E but
not its Class A equipment), it shall cease to be a Qualified Air Carrier only to the extent which, in the
sole judgment of the Airport Director, it is necessary to achieve a balance between its qualified
operational equipment available for immediate use at JWA and its Regular ADD or Passenger Capacity
Allocations, and the carrier's RegularADD, Seat Capacity, and Passenger Capacity Allocations will be
adjusted accordingly.

7.3.2 REALLOCATION PRIORITIES — POTENTIAL NEW ENTRANT CARRIER
In the event of a disqualification of an Air Carrier, or if, for any other reason, Regular
ADDS become available for reallocation, the County reserves the right, in its sole and exclusive
discretion: (i) to retain the Regular ADD capacity under direct County control for any reason; (ii) to
reallocate the RegularADDs; (iii) to authorize negotiations for the entry of an additional Air Carrier into
service at JWA; or, (iv) to implement any combination of those actions.
If a "new entrant" carrier is authorized to commence Regularly Scheduled Air Service at
JWA at any time, its operational capacity allocation shall be subject to the following priorities and
limitations:
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this PLAN, including the order in which
the waiting list required by Section 3.7.1 is maintained by the Airport Director,
the County will give preference for any allocation of Regulated ADDS to any
operation(s) who will use the capacity with: (i) in the case of Commercial Air
Carriers carrying Commercial Passengers, aircraft regularly configured with
more than seventy (70) passenger seats; or (ii) in the case of Commercial Cargo
Carriers, and to the extent of the maximum permitted number of Regulated
Authorized Departures which may be allocated to Commercial Cargo Carriers
underthe relevant provisions of Section 3 of this PLAN, aircraft with a certificated
Commercial Cargo payload capacity of more than ninety thousand (90,000)
pounds, over any operator(s) proposing to use the capacity with aircraft
configured with seventy (70) or fewer Passenger Seats or ninety thousand
(90,000) or fewer pounds of cargo carrying capacity; and
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this PLAN, including the order in which
the Air Carrier waiting list is maintained by the Airport Director under Section
3.7.1, no new entrant Air Carrier will be allocated more Regular ADDs of any
class, or more Seat Capacity, than had previously been allocated to the
disqualified Air Carrier.

If, for any reason, any Air Carrier operational capacity is available for reallocation to
incumbent carriers, then, subjectto the full, sole, and exclusive discretion of the County, RegularADDs
available for reallocation (and the associated Seat Capacity) will normally be reallocated, if at all, in
whole ADD increments, based upon the "reallocation order" of the then -incumbent Air Carriers (as
determined for Class A Aircraft in accordance with the procedures of Section 7.3.4), subject to the
following priorities and limitations:
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this PLAN, including the order in which
the waiting list required by Section 3.7.1 is maintained by the Airport Director,
the County will give preference for any reallocation of Regular Class AADDs to
any operator(s) who will use the capacity with aircraft regularly configured with
more than seventy (70) Passenger Seats, over any operator(s) proposing to use
the capacity with aircraft regularly configured with seventy (70) or fewer
Passenger Seats;
(b) The County may, in the sole and exclusive exercise of its discretion, allocate the
capacity for a period(s) less than the then -remaining term of this PLAN; and
(c) The County may, in the sole and exclusive exercise of its discretion, "convert"

consistent with the Orange County Board of Supervisors' actions
on June 25, 2002, and December 10, 2002, certifying EIR 582 and

provides the definition of a Commuter Air Carrier.
7.3.4 DETERMINATION OF AIR CARRIER "REALLOCATION ORDER"
In conducting the preliminary allocation ofRegulatedADDs referenced in Section 3 (see
also, APPENDix A), the County allocated certain Class AADDs based upon a "bottom-up" prioritization
which was determined by the number of Regular Class A ADDS tentatively allocated to each Air Carrier
immediately prior to the "bottom-up" allocation. In conducting the allocation of the new Regulated
ADDS also referenced in Section 3 (see also, APPENDICES G and H), the County allocated certain Class
AADDs based upon a new "bottom-up" prioritization, which was determined by the number of Regular
Class A ADDS allocated to each Air Carrier immediately prior to the "bottom-up" allocation. It is the
present intent of the County to maintain the new Class A reallocation priority list as a continuation of the
"reallocation" process, subject to the provisions and limitations of this section. APPENDix B
(INCUMBENT AIR CARRIER REALLOCATION PRIORITY LIST) reflects this reallocation priority order for
Class AADDs. Where two (2) or more carriers have identical allocations of Class AADDs, the "ties" in
list priority have been resolved based upon each carrier's date of commencement of service at JWA (as
determined by the date of formal action by the Board of Supervisors approving a lease or operating
agreement with that carrier for service at JWA, except where a successor carrier not previously operating
at JWA acquired a 100% equity interest in an incumbent airline and the successor carrier subsequently
received County consent to an assignment of the acquired carrier's existing lease or operating agreement
with the County, and the acquiring carrier was on the County air carrier "waiting list" at the time of the
acquisition, in which case the priority determination date shall be the date on which the acquisition was
completed), with those carriers whose date of commencement of service is first in time receiving the first
priority.
(a) Whenever any incumbent Air Carrier receives any reallocation of a Class A
ADD, that Air Carrier shall then be placed at the bottom of the INCUMBENT AIR
CARRIER REALLOCATION PRIORITY LIST, and all other Ail" Carriers on the list
shall be moved up one (1) position in the listed priority order.

(b) As and if reallocations of Regulated ADDS are made to the then incumbent Air
Carriers, the Airport Director shall make appropriate notations or amendments

priority list.
(c) Upon action of the Board of Supervisors formally authorizing the
commencement of service at JWA by a "new entrant" Air Carrier, then that Air
Carrier shall be placed last on the then -current incumbent Air Carrier
reallocation priority lists.
HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1990 Amendments. The December 1990 amendments
made two changes to this section. First, the qualification clause
was added to the first paragraph of this section (Le., "except where
a successor carrier ... on which the acquisition was completed").
The second change was to amend subsection (b) of this section to
require that, under the circumstances contemplated by subsection
(b), the carrier acquiring and qualifying Class AA aircraft which did
not have qualified Class AA aircraft at the time of the original
determination of reallocation priorities under this section would be
added to the reallocation priority list in the appropriate "bottom-up"
order rather than being added to the reallocation priority list as the
last carrier on the list.
Both changes were requested by Alaska Airlines. The requirement
that the "acquiring carrier" be on the County Air Carrier "waiting
list" was added on recommendation of the Airport Commission and
approved by the Board of Supervisors.
June 2003 Amendments. This section was revised to define all
regulated passenger flights as Class A flights, to eliminate the Class
AA/Class A Aircraft definition/distinction, and to reference the
allocation of new operating capacity at the Airport and the
corresponding designation of a new Incumbent Air Carrier
Reallocation Priority List These revisions are consistent with the
Orange County Board of Supervisors' approval of amendments to

In the event of a disqualification of an Air Carrier or Commuter Carrier, or if previously

shall, as soon as practicable:
(a) Advise the Board of Supervisors of: (i) the disqualification or availability of
Regular ADDS for reallocation; (ii) the then -current status of the Air Carrier or
Commuter Carrier waiting lists maintained under Section 3.7, as appropriate;
and (iii) his recommendations regarding reallocation of any affected Regular
ADDS, Seat Capacity, supplemental Authorized Departure allocations, or
Passenger Capacity Allocations, as appropriate.
(b) In making his recommendations to the Board of Supervisors under paragraph (a),
if the Air Carrier waiting list contains the name of a certificated Air Carrier
whose proposed operations would meet the priority requirements of Section
7.3.2(b), he shall assume that that operator will be permitted to become a new
entrant Air Carrier with an allocation of three (3) Regular ADDS and a
corresponding level of allocated Seat Capacity, and he shall make a separate
recommendation regarding reallocation of any additional RegularADDs (and the
corresponding Seat Capacity) which may be available for reallocation.
HISTORICAL NOTE
September 2010 Amendments. This section was revised to reflect
policy revisions with respect to the number of Class A ADDS that are
allocated to a new entrant AirCarrier(the number was revised from

7.4.2 AIR CARRIERS
In the event of any reallocation under this section of Regulated ADDS or Seat Capacity,
the County will make adjustments to the priorities for withdrawal ofRegulatedADDs and Seat Capacity
(as referenced and specified in Section 6.3 and APPENDICES C AND D) which, in the sole and exclusive
legislative discretion of the County, are appropriate, and which maintain fairness as between operators at
JWA. In making any recommendations under Section 7.3.5(a), the Airport Director shall present his
recommendations regarding adjustments to Air Carrier withdrawal priorities.
7.4.3 PRESUMED AIR CARRIER WITHDRAWAL PRIORITY ADJUSTMENTS
Generally, it will be the position of the County that: (i) All Air Carriers should continue
to have amaximum of five (5) RegulatedADDs exempt from priority withdrawal; (ii) that all SeatBlocks
for tentative Seat Capacity allocations above 711,750 Passenger Seats shall be (or remain) prioritized for
withdrawal; and (iii) the actual withdrawal priority positions for Regulated ADDS and Seat Blocks
reallocated under this section or any other relevant provision of this PLAN, and which do not become
exempt from priority withdrawal by reallocation to Air Carriers whose total allocations do not, after the
reallocation, exceed the thresholds referred to in this paragraph, shall remain the same as they were
before reallocation.
HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1990 Amendments. All of Section 7.4 was added by the
December 1990 amendments. The section addresses an issue
overlooked in the original plan text, which is the effect of a Section
7 reallocation on withdrawal priorities previously established for the
reallocated ADDS or Seat Blocks. Although the County retains
significant discretion under this section, the section is intended to
continue the basic withdrawal priority processes and premises
used to establish the withdrawal priorities in the first instance in
most cases.

(a) Except as may be allowed under the authority of subsection (b), no Air Carrier
or Commuter Carrier shall provide services or engage in activities related to the
service of air passengers and their baggage except through and in facilities
designated for that purpose by the County in the THOMAS F. RILEY TERMINAL.

HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1990 Amendments. This section was added by the
December 1990 amendments, although it is simply a restatement of
preexisting policy of the County (and existing limitations on the
carriers through their leases and otherwise). This limitation on use
is an element of the City of Newport Beach "settlement agreement,"
and amending the PLAN to include this restatement of existing
limitations is intended principally to make the PLAN itself a more
complete and self-contained statement of County regulation of
commercial use of JWA.
8.2 AFFILIATE OPERATIONS - PROHIBITION
Except as expressly permitted by this section, and except as permitted by Sections 3.9 and 3.10
of this PLAN and any other relevant provisions of the PLAN relative to the operation of Associated
Operating Groups, Affiliated Carriers shall not simultaneously conduct Regularly Scheduled Air Service
at JWA.
HISTORICAL NOTE
October 1994 Amendments. On October 4, 1994, the Orange County
Board of Supervisors approved a series of amendments to the
affiliate policy provisions of the ACCESS PLAN. These amendments
included a number of regulations which apply to the formation of,
allocations to, and general operation of Associated Operating
Groups. This section was revised consistent with these approved
amendments.

SECTION 8 - PENALTIES AND PROHIBITIONS
8.2.1 OPERATIONS BY AFFILIATED CARRIERS - PERMITTED EXCEPTION
During the term of this PLAN, one (1) Air Carrier and one (1) Commuter Carrier of any
group of Affiliated Carriers may, during any Plan Year, simultaneously engage in Regularly Scheduled
Air Service at JWA, except that, nothing in this subsection prohibits Affiliated Carriers from conducting
operations as members of an Associated Operating Group under, and in compliance with, Sections 3.9
and 3.10 of this PLAN, and all other sections of this PLAN relevant to the operation of Associated
Operating Groups at JWA.
8.2.2 DESIGNATION OF AUTHORIZED AFFILIATED OPERATORS AT JWA
In the event more than one (1) Air Carrier or more than one (1) Commuter Carrier of any
group of Affiliated Carriers desires to provide Regularly Scheduled Air Service at JWA, the operators
which will be authorized to provide the service will be determined as follows:
(a) If all members of the Affiliated Group who desire to serve JWA execute and
submit a written election to the Airport Director identifying which of the
Affiliated Carriers will actually serve JWA, then the County will, under normal
circumstances, accept the joint designation. However,
(b) If an election is not made under paragraph (a), the Air Carrier and Commuter
Carrier of the Affiliated Group with seniority at JWA shall be the carrier(s)
authorized to provide Regularly Scheduled Air Service at JWA. For purposes of
this section, "seniority" among Regularly Scheduled Commercial Users or other
carriers shall be determined first: (i) by reference to the date on which the
operator was first authorized by official action of the Board of Supervisors to
conduct Regularly Scheduled Air Service at JWA; and, second, (ii) by reference to
the order in which the person(s) is listed on the Section 3.7 waiting list(s).

8.2.3 FORMATION OF AFFILIATE RELATIONSHIP DURING A PLAN YEAR
(a) If any Qualified Air Carrier(s) and/or Qualified Commuter Carrier(s) form an
Affiliate relationship during any Plan Year which would otherwise result in a
violation of Section 8.2, and if those person(s) have complied fully, completely,
and in a timely manner with the reporting requirements of Section 8.2.4, then, by
reference to the provisions of Section 8.2.2, all operators whose operations at

Section 8.2.1), without further action of the County, at the close of business on
the last day of the Plan Year during which the Affiliate relationship was created.
(b) If any member of the Affiliate Group conducting operations at JWA fails to
comply fully, completely, and in atimely manner with the reporting requirements
of Section 8.2.4, then the operator(s) to be disqualified under this section shall,
automatically, and without further action of the County, cease to be qualified
operator(s) at the end of the tenth (10th) day following the day on which the
Section 8.2.4 report was required to be filed with the Airport Director.
8.2.4 NOTICE OF FORMATION OF AFFILIATE RELATIONSHIP
(a) Not later than September 30, 1990, eachAir Carrier and each Commuter Carrier
intending to conduct operations at JWA at the commencement of the term of this

shall complete and submit to the Airport Director a NOTICE OF AFFILIATE
RELATIONSHIP FORM (APPENDIR F-17).
(c) No person who has approved, or who is negotiating or actively implementing the
formation or possible formation of an Affiliate relationship, whether or not the
relationship is with (directly or indirectly) another person conducting Regularly
Scheduled Air Service at JWA, shall submit any request for any allocation of
operational capacity under this PLAN, whether for an allocation of ADDS,
supplemental Authorized Departures, Allocated Seat Capacity (supplemental or
otherwise), RON positions, or Passenger Capacity Allocations, unless that
person has first submitted to the Airport Director a NOTICE OF AFFILIATE
RELATIONSHIP FORM (APPENDIR F-17) describing the transaction or
contemplated transaction.
8.3 SPECIFIC OPERATIONS PROHIBITIONS

SECTION 8 - PENALTIES AND PROHIBITIONS
minimum and maximum parameters is an essential and irreplaceable element of the consideration for
which the County has consented to permit any person to become a Qualified Air Carrier or Qualified
Commuter Carrier for, and during, the term of this PLAN. The ability of the County to meet its
environmental and service level goals for JWA is dependent upon strict compliance by each Air Carrier
and each Commuter Carrier with the provisions of the following sections:
8.3.1 EXCESS REGULATED OPERATIONS
No person requiring an allocation ofADDs for operations at JWA shall operate more than
its total Authorized Departures (including any supplemental Authorized Departures allocated under
Section 4) during any Plan Year. This prohibition applies separately to Class A, permanent Class E, and
other Class E allocations.
HISTORICAL NOTE
June 2003 Amendments. This section was revised to define all
regulated passenger flights as Class A flights, to eliminate the Class
AA/Class A Aircraft definition/distinction, and to reference
permanent Class E allocations. These revisions are consistent with
the Orange County Board of Supervisors' actions on June 25, 2002,
and December 10, 2002, certifying EIR 582 and approving the
Settlement Amendment; and actions on June 3, 2003, and June 24,
2003, authorizing and approving implementing amendments to the
ACCESS PLAN.
8.3.2 OPERATIONS RESULTING IN EXCESS USE OF SEAT CAPACITY
No Qualified Air Carrier shall conduct operations at JWA during any Plan Year in a
manner which results in a total Seat Capacity for all of its operations which exceeds the sum of: (i) the
Seat Capacity allocated to the carrier under Section 3.3.2; (ii) any Seat Capacity reallocated to the carrier
under the authority of Section 7; and (iii) any supplemental Seat Capacity allocated to the carrier under
Sections 4.2 or 4.3 for use during the Plan Year.
8.3.3 OPERATIONS RESULTING IN EXCESS USE OF PASSENGER CAPACITY
ALLOCATIONS
No Qualified Commuter Carrier shall conduct operations at JWA during any Plan Year
in a manner which results in service to a number of Commercial Passengers which exceeds the sum of:

County adopted "access plan;" nor shall any such person
(b) Operate any aircraft in connection with any allocation made under this PLAN for
any specific aircraft noise "class" unless that aircraft has previously been
qualified and certified by the Airport Director under Section 10 (or under a
previously effective County adopted "access plan") as authorized for use in that
specific aircraft noise "class."
8.3.5 MAXIMUM CALENDAR QUARTER PRORATA OPERATIONS LEVELS
Unless it has received special written authority from the Airport Director under Section
8.3.8, no person receiving an allocation ofADDs, Seat Capacity, or Passenger Capacity (including any
supplemental capacity allocations) shall conduct its operations in a manner which causes the person to
operate more than the following percentages of its calendar quarter prorata operational capacity
allocation(s) for any Plan Year (calculated by reference to the number of days in each relevant calendar
quarter):
DURING ANY MAXIMUM PERCENTAGE
Calendar Quarter: 115%
Three Consecutive Calendar Quarters: 105%
HISTORICAL NOTE
June 2003 Amendments. The June 2003 amendments revised this
section to replace the word "minimum" with the word "maximum"
on the first line of the table. This was a clarifying amendment, and
was consistent with the staff interpretation of the section prior to
the amendment.
July 2015 Amendments. This section was revised to delete the
maximum percentage requirement for two consecutive calendar
quarters because the requirement was identical to each calendar
quarter requirement.

HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1990 Amendments. The December 1990 amendments
changed the minimum use percentage requirement for the Plan Year
to ninety percent (90%) from ninety-five percent (95%). This was a
liberalizing amendment requested by the Air Carriers.
July 1999 Amendments. The July 1999 amendments revised this
section to reference monthly, quarterly, and Plan Year operations
levels consistent with the application of this section to operations
levels.
June 2003 Amendments. This section was revised to define all
regulated passenger flights as Class A flights and to eliminate the

SECTION 9
REVIEW OF SANCTIONS
9.1 APPEAL OF PENALTY OR SANCTION
Any person who is assessed any penalty or other sanction imposed by the Airport Director under
the terms of this PLAN may request County administrative review of the initial decision to impose the
penalty or sanction in accordance with the terms of this section. The relief sought in connection with any
such request for review may be: (i) a determination that the penalty or sanction should not be imposed,
or should be rescinded, in whole or in part (ii) a modification of the penalty or sanction; or (iii) the
imposition of some other penalty or sanction under the terms of this PLAN.
9.2 COUNTY POLICY
It is the basic purpose of these rules to provide a reasonable, fair, constitutionally appropriate,
and expeditious means by which persons contesting penalties or sanctions imposed by the Airport
Director can obtain review of the penalty or sanction decision by administrative means.
It is not in the best interests of the citizens of Orange County, the air traveling public, or other
users of JWA, and it is not the intent of these rules, to provide a procedure by which persons can create
or cause extended delays in the assessment, collection, or enforcement of any penalty or sanction
imposed under this PLAN; nor is it the intent of these rules to create or authorize a procedure by which
persons subject to penalties or sanctions under this PLAN can contest the penalty or sanction by
unmeritorious or unsupportable claims or assertions.
As stated in Section 1.5 (and see, Section 1.8 and Section 1.9), operating capacity allocations
under this PLAN are privileges and do not, at any time, become "vested" rights or "vested property
rights." To the extent this Section 9 provides procedural processes and safeguards in excess of the
minimum requirements of the United States and California Constitutions, those procedures are a
courtesy to the users of JWA only, and not an acknowledgment of any claim that this PLAN creates any
"vested" rights.
9.3 REQUEST FOR REVIEW
9.3.1 INFORMAL REQUEST FOR REVIEW
Not later than seven (7) days after the effective date (see, Section 11.2.3) of the Airport
Director's notice of penalty or sanction delivered under Section 8. 11, or any other section of this PLAN,
the person subject to the penalty or sanction described in the notice may request and receive an

opportunity to meet informally with the Airport Director to discuss, and request reconsideration of, the
penalty or sanction.
9.3.2 FORMAL REQUEST FOR REVIEW
Not later than thirty (30) days after the effective date (see, Section 11. 2.3) of the Airport
Director's notice of penalty or sanction delivered under Section 8. 11, or any other section of this PLAN,
the person subject to the penalty or sanction described in the notice may submit an original and nine (9)
copies of a written "Request for Review of Sanction or Penalty" ("REQUEST FOR REVIEW") to the Airport
Director. A REQUEST FOR REVIEW maybe submitted only bythe person subject to the penalty or sanction
for which review is sought.
HISTORICAL NOTE
December 1990 Amendments. The December 1990 amendments
added the words "of Sanction or Penalty" to the first sentence of
this section for purposes of consistency.
July 2015 Amendments. The July 2015 amendments revised the
time period within which a person may make a formal request for
review from fifteen (15) days to thirty (30) days after the effective
date of the notice of penalty or sanction.
9.4 PROHIBITION AGAINST UNMERITORIOUS OR SHAM REQUESTS FOR REVIEW
No person shall submit any REQUEST FOR REVIEW for the sole or principal purpose of causing a
delay in the implementation or enforcement of any penalty or sanction imposed under this PLAN, or
which is otherwise submitted, in whole or in significant part, in "bad faith."
(a) For purposes of this section, a REQUEST FOR REVIEW is not submitted in "bad faith" if the
factual and legal issues raised by the REQUEST FOR REVIEW identify legal or factual issues
which a reasonable man would conclude, under all relevant circumstances, present a fair
and colorable dispute over whether the challenged penalty or other sanction should be
rescinded or modified.
(b) For purposes of this section, each factual and legal issue raised by the REQUEST FOR
REVIEW must separately meet the "bad faith" test of this section, and nothing in this
section precludes the County from determining that some, but not all, of the issues raised
by the REQUEST FOR REVIEW have been presented in "bad faith."

APPENDIX A
REGULATED ADDS
INITIAL 1989 ALLOCATION PROTOCOL
AND ALLOCATION SUMMARY
PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN
REGULATED ADDS
INITIAL 1989 ALLOCATION PROTOCOL
November 20, 1989
APPENDIX A — Regulated ADDS — Initial 1989 Allocation Protocol
1.0 INTRODUCTION
American Airlines has suggested that it would be helpful to the air carriers participating in the
PHASE 2 Regulated ADD allocation process on November 20, 1989, if the County would provide a
"protocol" outlining the procedures which will be followed during the allocation process. County staff
agrees with this suggestion, and this document is intended to provide an outline of the conditions and
procedures of the allocation process.
2.0 CONDITIONS
The allocation of regulated ADDS will occur under the following conditions:
2.1 BOARD RATIFICATION
All allocations will be conditional and subject to final ratification by the Board of
Supervisors. Staff anticipates that this ratification will occur at the time the Board approves the full text
of the PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN, which is currently being prepared and will be submitted to the Board
shortly. American Airlines has asked for a staff commitment on the action the County will take "if less
than nine tradeouts are made after the completion of two rounds of trading." Staff does not believe that
it is necessary or appropriate to make such pre -commitments at this time. The staff has previously
indicated that if the tradeout process fails to achieve its essential purposes, staff may recommend that the
Board not ratify the allocation process, and that it adopt instead some other allocation process.
2.2 COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER PRE -ALLOCATION CONDITIONS
Only those carriers which have previously complied with all pre -conditions to the
allocation process will be eligible to participate in the allocation. This includes the aircraft qualification
requirement and the new entrant deposit requirement, both of which were discussed in the Second Staff
Report.
All incumbent carriers have qualified Class AA equipment for operations at JWA - and
are therefore eligible to participate in the tradeout process - except Alaska Airlines and TWA.
Qualification of Class EAircraft is not necessary to the allocation of Regulated ADDS.
2.3 PRESENCE OF AUTHORIZED AIRLINE REPRESENTATIVE
Each airline wishing to receive an allocation of PHASE 2 Regulated ADDS must be
represented by a company official with authority to make a binding commitment on tradeout
opportunities and the acceptance of Regulated ADD allocations. At the beginning of the allocation
process, each airline will be asked to confirm its presence, and to confirm that it is being represented by
an official with such binding authority.
Page A-1
APPENDIX A — Regulated ADDS — Initial 1989 Allocation Protocol
2.4 TIME AND PLACE OF THE ALLOCATION
As previously announced, the allocation process will commence at 9:30 a.m. on Monday,
November 20, 1989. The allocation will take place in the Board of Supervisors' Hearing Room, 10 Civic
Center Plaza, Santa Ana, California
3.0 ALLOCATION PROCESS
The allocation process will follow the following procedures and requirements:
3.1 INITIAL ALLOCATIONS
allocations:
3.1.1 The eligible airlines will initially be offered the following Regulated ADD

3.1.2 Each airline will be asked to confirm that it will accept this initial allocation of
ADDS. AnyADDs not accepted at this stage of the process will be deemed to be "County" ADDS.
3.2 CLASS A/AA TRADEOUT
After the initial allocation is confirmed by each carrier, the tradeout process will begin.
3.2.1 All incumbent carriers except TWA and Alaska will be eligible for the tradeout
process.
3.2.2 Each carrier will be given the sequential opportunity to tradeout one Class A
ADD for two Class AAADDs. The sequence will continue until 18 Class AAADDs have been allocated
through the tradeout process, or until all eligible carriers have "passed" twice.
3.2.3 The carriers will be prioritized for sequential exercise of tradeout opportunities
by a "top-down" order based upon their initial allocation of Class AADDs only. Any "ties" in eligibility
Page A-2
APPENDIX A — Regulated ADDS — Initial 1989 Allocation Protocol
have been broken by reference to each carrier's Class AA ADDS (after the initial allocation set forth
above) and then, as necessary, by the date of their commencement of service at JWA. The "top-down"
order will be as follows:
+ American Airlines
+ Continental Airlines
+ Northwest Airlines
+ USAir
+ Delta Air Lines
+ United Air Lines
+ America West Airlines
3.2.4 Each carrier will be polled in sequence as to whether it wishes to exercise a
trade -out opportunity. Each carrier will have a maximum of three (3) minutes to respond. If a carrier
does not respond within the three (3) minute period, it shall be deemed to have "passed."
3.2.5 At the conclusion of the tradeout allocation, each air carrier will be provided with
a sheet reflecting the status of the allocation process at this stage, and will be asked to confirm the
accuracy of that allocation summary before the process continues. Any disputes or protests will
immediately be resolved by staff. Any failure to immediately express such a protest will be deemed by
the County to be a waiver of the protest by the air carrier.
3.3 "REDISTRIBUTION" OF CLASS A ADDS
Following completion of the tradeout process, the County will "redistribute" the Class A
ADDS "received" by it during the tradeout process, and the two Class AADDs not allocated as part of the
initial allocation, pursuant to the following procedures:
3.3.1 The Class A ADDS will be allocated sequentially among the incumbent carriers,
in one ADD increments, based upon a "bottom-up" sequence determined by reference to each air carrier's
Class A ADD allocation at the end of the tradeout process. All "ties" in sequence eligibility will be
resolved first by reference to each affected carrier's Class AA ADD allocation and then, if necessary, by
reference to each carrier's date of commencement ofJWA service. Since this order cannot be determined
until after completion of the tradeout, the sequence order cannot be listed here. However, prior to the
commencement of the allocation of "redistributed" Class AADDs, staff will announce its understanding
of the relevant "bottom-up" order. Any carrier contesting that understanding must express its protest
immediately, and the protest will immediately be resolved by staff. Any failure to immediately express
such a protest will be deemed by the County to be a waiver of the protest by the air carrier.
3.3.2 The "redistribution" of Class A ADDS will be deemed to have started with
America West's receipt of a Class A ADD in the "initial" allocation (Paragraph 3.1.1, above). The first
"redistributed" Class A ADD to be allocated under this Paragraph 3.3 will be allocated to the first air
carrier in the selection order after America West.
Page A-3
APPENDIX A — Regulated ADDS — Initial 1989 Allocation Protocol
3.3.3 The allocation process will continue until these Class A ADDS have been
allocated, or until each eligible air carrier has declined to accept additional Class AADD allocations.
3.3.4 Each air carrier will be polled sequentially and will have a maximum of three (3)
minutes to acceptor refuse the Class AADD. A failure to respond within the three (3) minute period will
be deemed to be a "pass" (or, a refusal to accept the offered allocation).
3.3.5 At the conclusion of the "redistributed" Class A ADD allocation, each air carrier
will be provided with a sheet reflecting the status of the final allocations, and will be asked to confirm the
accuracy of that allocation summary. Any disputes or protests will immediately be resolved by staff.
4.0 ADD AND SEAT ALLOCATION WITHDRAWAL LOTTERIES
Following completion of the Regulated ADD allocation process, the County will immediately
conduct separate withdrawal lotteries, as outlined in the Second Staff Report, for certain (i) Class A
ADDS, (ii) Class AA ADDS and (iii) "seat blocks." This lottery will occur under the following general
rules and procedures:
4.1 DETERMINATION OF ADD WITHDRAWAL LOTTERY ELIGIBILITY
4.1.1 The County will advise the carriers of the number of Class A and Class AA ADDS
of each carrier which it believes to be eligible for the withdrawal lottery.
4.1.2 Each air carrier will be asked to confirm the accuracy of that eligibility before the
process continues. Any disputes or protests will immediately be resolved by staff. Any failure to
immediately express such a protest will be deemed by the County to be a waiver of the protest by the air
carrier.
4.2 ADD WITHDRAWAL LOTTERY
4.2.1 The County will then, by a random lottery process, assign withdrawal priorities
separately to eligible Class A ADDS, and then to eligible Class AA ADDS.
4.2.2 Each air carrier will be provided with a summary of the withdrawal priority
lottery results, and will again be asked to confirm the accuracy of that summary before the process
continues. Any disputes or protests will immediately be resolved by staff. Any failure to immediately
express such a protest will be deemed by the County to be a waiver of the protest by the Air Carrier.
4.3 SEAT CAPACITY WITHDRAWAL LOTTERY
4.3.1 The County will advise the carriers of the number of "passenger seats" allocated
to each carrier based upon each carrier's final Regulated ADD allocations. The County will then
announce how many of each carrier's "Seat Blocks" (in increments of 13,000 seats) it believes to be
eligible for the withdrawal lottery.
Page A-4
APPENDIX A — Regulated ADDS — Initial 1989 Allocation Protocol
4.3.2 Each Air Carrier will be asked to confirm the accuracy of that seat allocation and
"Seat Block" withdrawal lottery eligibility before the process continues. Any disputes or protests will
immediately be resolved by staff. Any failure to immediately express such a protest will be deemed by
the County to be a waiver of the protest by the Air Carrier.
4.4 "SEAT BLOCK" WITHDRAWAL LOTTERY
4.4.1 The County will then, by a random lottery process, assign withdrawal priorities
separately to each eligible "Seat Block."
4.4.2 Each Air Carrier will be provided with a summary of the "Seat Block"
withdrawal lottery results, and will again be asked to confirm the accuracy of that summary before the
process concludes. Any disputes or protests will immediately be resolved by staff. Any failure to
immediately express such a protest will be deemed by the County to be a waiver of the protest by the Air
Carrier.
5.0 SUBSEQUENT AIRLINE "TRADES"
As approved by the Board of Supervisors, the County will permit an opportunity for a one-time
"trade" of Regulated ADDS among the Qualified Air Carriers, subject to specific conditions and
limitations. These "trades" must be completed and confirmed in writing to the Airport Director not later
than 5:00 p.m. on November 28, 1989, and are subject to acceptance and ratification by the Airport
Director and the Board of Supervisors. The written confirmation of any such trades will be subject to
certain requirements and limitations which will be announced and discussed at the completion of the
allocation process.

represented by a company official with authority to make a binding commitment on trade -out
opportunities and the acceptance of Regulated ADD allocations. At the beginning of the allocation
process, each airline will be asked to confirm its presence, and to confirm that it is being represented by
an official with such binding authority.
2.4 TIME AND PLACE OF THE ALLOCATION
As previously announced, the allocation process will commence at 10:00 a.m. (local
time) on Wednesday, May 28, 2003. The allocation will take place at the at the Airport Commission

Page G-2
APPENDIX G — 2003 Phase 2 Allocation Protocol
3.2.2 Each carrier will be given the sequential opportunity to trade -out one (1) Class
A ADD for two (2) Class E ADDS. The sequence will continue until twelve (12) permanent Class E
ADDS have been allocated through the trade -out process, or until all eligible carriers have "passed" twice.
3.2.3 The carriers will be prioritized for sequential exercise of trade -out opportunities
by a "top-down" order based upon their initial allocation of new Class A ADDS, in addition to their
currentADD allocation as follows:

Page G-3
APPENDIX G — 2003 Phase 2 Allocation Protocol
3.2.4 Each carrier will be polled in sequence as to whether it wishes to exercise a
trade -out opportunity. Each carrier will have a maximum of three (3) minutes to respond. If a carrier
does not respond within the three (3) minute period, it shall be deemed to have "passed."
3.2.5 At the conclusion of the trade -out allocation, each Air Carrier will be provided
with a sheet reflecting the status of the allocation process at this stage, and will be asked to confirm the
accuracy of that allocation summary before the process continues. Any disputes or protests will
immediately be resolved by staff. Any failure to immediately express such a protest will be deemed by
the County to be a waiver of the protest by the Air Carrier.
3.3 "REDISTRIBUTION" OF CLASS A ADDS
Following completion of the trade -out process, the County will "redistribute" the Class
A ADDS "received" by it during the trade -out process, pursuant to the following procedures:
3.3.1 The Class A ADDS will be allocated sequentially among the incumbent carriers,
in one (1) ADD increments, based upon a "bottom-up" sequence determined by reference to each Air
Carrier's Class A ADD allocation at the end of the trade -out process. All "ties" in sequence eligibility
will be resolved first by reference to each carrier's date of commencement ofJWA service.
3.3.2 The "redistribution" of Class A ADDS will be deemed to have started with
Frontier Airlines' receipt of a Class AADD in the "initial" allocation (Paragraph 3.1.1, above). The first
"redistributed" Class A ADD to be allocated under this Paragraph 3.3 will be allocated to the first Air
Carrier in the selection order after Frontier Airlines.
3.3.3 The allocation process will continue until all but two (2) of these Class A ADDS
have been allocated, or until each eligible Air Carrier has declined to accept additional Class A ADD
allocations. The remaining two (2) Class AADDs will be allocated supplementally.
3.3.4 Each Air Carrier will be polled sequentially and will have a maximum of three
(3) minutes to accept or refuse the Class AADD. A failure to respond within the three (3) minute period
will be deemed to be a "pass" (or, a refusal to accept the offered allocation).
3.3.5 At the conclusion of the "redistributed" Class AADD allocation, each Air Carrier
will be provided with a sheet reflecting the status of the final allocations, and will be asked to confirm the
accuracy of that allocation summary. Any disputes or protests will immediately be resolved by staff.
4.0 ADD AND SEAT ALLOCATION WITHDRAWAL LOTTERIES
Following completion of the Regulated ADD allocation process, the County will immediately
conduct a separate withdrawal lottery, as outlined in the Second Staff Report, for certain permanent
Class EADDs. This lottery will occur under the following general rules and procedures.
Page G-4
APPENDIX G — 2003 Phase 2 Allocation Protocol
4.1 ADD WITHDRAWAL LOTTERY
4.1.1 The County will, by a random lottery process, assign withdrawal priorities
separately to permanent Class EADDs.
4.1.2 Each Air Carrier will be provided with a summary of the withdrawal priority
lottery results, and will again be asked to confirm the accuracy of that summary before the process con-
tinues. Any disputes or protests will immediately be resolved by staff. Any failure to immediately
express such a protest will be deemed by the County to be a waiver of the protest by the Air Carrier.
4.3 SEAT CAPACITY WITHDRAWAL LOTTERY
4.2.1 The County will advise the carriers of the number of "passenger seats" allocated
to each carrier based upon each carrier's final Regulated ADD allocations. The County will then
announce how many of each carrier's "Seat Blocks" (in increments of 13,000 seats) it believes to be
eligible for the withdrawal lottery.
4.2.2 Each Air Carrier will be asked to confirm the accuracy of that seat allocation and
"Seat Block" withdrawal lottery eligibility before the process continues. Any disputes or protests will
immediately be resolved by staff. Any failure to immediately express such a protest will be deemed by
the County to be a waiver of the protest by the Air Carrier.
4.3 "SEAT BLOCK" WITHDRAWAL LOTTERY
4.3.1 The County will then, by a random lottery process, assign withdrawal priorities
separately to each eligible "Seat Block."
4.3.2 Each Air Carrier will be provided with a summary of the "Seat Block"
withdrawal lottery results, and will again be asked to confirm the accuracy of that summary before the
process concludes. Any disputes or protests will immediately be resolved by staff. Any failure to
immediately express such a protest will be deemed by the County to be a waiver of the protest by the Air
Carrier.
5.0 SUBSEQUENT AIRLINE "TRADES"
The County will permit an opportunity for a one-time "trade" of new Regulated Class A and
Class E ADDS among the Qualified Air Carriers, subject to specific conditions and limitations. These

The four (4) County Class A ADDS include two (2) Class A ADDS that the County has been allocating as supplemental
capacity for use by commercial passenger carriers during the past several Plan Years. This was the only unallocated
capacity available to accommodate continued operations by the two (2) all -cargo carriers at the Airport if the Airport was
unsuccessful in negotiating with the City and others to obtain the necessary capacity for cargo operations at the Airport.
This capacity is no longer required as a "safety valve" in light of the Settlement Amendment provision for four (4)
permanent Class ADDS for cargo carriers. The other two (2) Class ADDS that the County currently holds are the two
(2) Class AA ADDS that American returned to the County, effective April 6, 2003.
Page H-1
APPENDIX H - Allocation Process, May 28, 2003
STEP TWO: ALLOCATION OF FOUR (4) COUNTY CLASS A ADDS TO TWO NEw ENTRANT AIR
CARRIERS - FRONTIER AIRLINES AND ATA AIRLINES
The first two eligible new entrant air carriers currently on the new entrant air carrier
waiting list will be provided two (2) Class A ADDS each of the existing four (4) County Class A ADDS.
Each of the new entrant airlines (Frontier and ATA Airlines) will be asked to confirm that it will accept
this initial allocation ofADDs. AnyADDs not accepted at this stage of the process will be deemed to be
"County" ADDS.
STEP THREE: RESTRUCTURING OF THE ALLOCATION PRIORITY LIST
The carriers will then be prioritized for the sequential distribution of the twelve (12)
new Class A ADDS based upon a bottom-up allocation priority list. Table 2, below, provides the new
bottom up incumbent air carrier allocation priority list based upon the existing Regulated ADD
allocations, and the allocations to two (2) new entrant air carriers.
All ties are broken based upon the date of commencement of service of eachAir Carrier
on the list. Therefore, US Airways has been placed before Aloha, and Delta has been placed before
United on the list. In addition, Frontier has been placed before ATA because Frontier requested to be
placed on the new entrant air carrier wait list on May 15, 2000, and ATA Airlines requested to be placed
on the new entrant air carrier wait list on January 19, 2001.
Each airline will be asked to confirm its placement on this new Air Carrier reallocation
priority list based upon its existing Regulated ADD allocations.
ATA originally accepted the allocation of two (2) Class A ADDS. However, by letter dated June 10, 2003, ATA
informed the Airport that it planned to return the tentative allocation. ATA's allocation will be provided to the next Air
Carrier on the new entrant waiting list

APPENDIX H—Allocation Process, Mav 28, 2003, And Summary
* Aloha, US Airways, Frontier Airlines, and ATA Airlines are each tied with two (2) ClassA ADDS.
** Delta and United are tied with seven (7) Class A, however, Delta commenced service atJWA prior to United.
*** ATA originally accepted the allocation of two (2) ClassAADDs. However, by letter dated June 10, 2003, ATA informed
the Airport that it planned to return the tentative allocation. ATA's allocation will be provided to the next Air Carrier
on the new entrant waiting list.
STEP FOUR: ALLOCATION OF TWELVE (12) NEW CLASS A ADDS
The airlines will each be offered new Class AADDs in one (1) Class AADD increments
based upon the order that each airline is placed on the allocation priority list, as reflected in Table 2,
above. For purposes of the "first round" of allocations, Frontier Airlines and ATA Airlines will be
excluded from the allocation process. However, for purposes of the "second round" of allocations (i.e.,
after each incumbent air carrier has been offered one [1] of the new Class AADDs), the new entrants will
be included in the allocation process.
ATA originally accepted the allocation of two (2) Class A ADDS. However, by letter dated June 10, 2003, ATA

• United Airlines
• Alaska Airlines
• Northwest Airlines
• Southwest Airlines
• US Airways
• Aloha Airlines
• Frontier Airlines
• ATA Airlines
Each carrier will be polled in sequence as to whether it wishes to exercise a trade -out
opportunity. Each carrier will have a maximum of three (3) minutes to respond. If a carrier does not
respond within the three (3) minute period, it shall be deemed to have "passed." The trade -out process
will continue until all of the Class E ADDS have been allocated, or until each eligible Air Carrier has
declined to accept additional trade -out opportunities.
At the conclusion of the trade -out allocation, each Air Carrier will be provided with a
sheet reflecting the status of the allocation process at this stage, and will be asked to confirm the accuracy
of that allocation summary before the process continues. Any disputes or protests will immediately be

TABLE OF REQUIRED DATES
TABLE OF REQUIRED FILING DATES
The following tables summarize the filing due dates of various forms required by the PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN (see,
PHASE 2 AccEss PLAN, §§8.6.1 and 8.6.2). Where the filing indicates the use of a specific "form" (i.e., "F -{x}"), the reference
is to the forms attached as APPENDICES F-1 through F-22 of the PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN. References to "ACCESS PLAN
Section[s]" are references to the section of the PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN which specifically require the filing of the form. In some
cases, there are other provisions of the PLAN which reference, or are material to, the required filing or form. (See, the
REQUIRED FoRms CRoss-REFERENCE TABLE which follows this table for other references.) The summary contained in this
table is for convenience only, and it does not supersede or replace the full text and relevant provisions of the PHASE 2 ACCESS
PLAN, which should always be reviewed in connection with any required filing. If you have questions regarding the required
filings, contact the JWA Noise Abatement Center.
The deadline for filing certain of the forms is specified in the PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN as being a specific number of
days in advance of defined time periods, including each Plan Year, Calendar Quarter, or Supplemental Allocation Period.
Other forms may be filed at any time during a Plan Year, but, in many cases, must be filed a specified number of days before
the applicant may engage in certain activity at the airport. Again, any questions should be resolved first by reference to the
PHASE 2 ACCESS PLAN itself and then, if necessary, by calling the JWA Access and Noise Office at (949) 252-5185.
