Re: Statement of Qualifications for the Master Plan Development
and Environmental Assessment of the Kalispell City Airport
Dear Mr. Krepps:
Morrison-Maierle, Inc. is pleased to submit five copies of our Statement of
Qualifications and Experience for consulting engineering services related to the
Kalispell City Airport Master Plan.
Kalispell City Airport is one of the busiest general aviation airports in Montana. It is
growing at an accelerated rate due to the area's desirable environment. With an
increasing number of people moving to the Kalispell area, the demand on the airport
facilities also increases. It is important in the development of the Kalispell City Airport
facilities to research, discuss and map the future of the Airport, at this time. We at
Morrison-Maierle commend the City for making the decision to complete a Master
Plan Study for your Airport.
As we understand the project, there are a number of issues that need close attention
and further consideration during this Study. Particularly important are the radio
towers in the approach to Runway 31 and the runway length and possible
realignment. The Airport's close proximity to residential and commercial
development, some "through the fence" fixed base operators and private tenant
operations as well as aircraft noise are other issues which will need to be addressed
to satisfy local, Federal Aviation Administration and Montana Aeronautics Division
concerns.
The timely completion of the Airport Master Plan Study and Environmental
Assessment is very important to meet the funding schedules of the FAA. Any delays
or lengthy completion times could jeopardize the funding opportunities. Our current
workload will allow us to proceed immediately with your airport planning and
environmental assessment project with a qualified team that is committed to providing
you with professional services tailored to meet your needs.

We have assembled a team for the Master Plan that has the expertise to investigate
and provide ideas and reasonable solutions to the issues and concerns of your
Airport. In addition to drawing on airport planners, engineers and environmental
scientists from Morrison-Maierle, our team will include DBE consultants with whom
we have worked in the past. Our team can call on in-house professional staff with
many years experience with EA's for controversial projects, including Highway 93
from Evaro to Polson, Hill County, (MT Rushmore) Highway Relocation (SD) and the
McDonald Gold Mine near Lincoln, Montana.
We recognize the value of the Kalispell City Airport. We appreciate the opportunity
to present our qualifications and look forward to meeting with you, the Kalispell City
Airport Authority and the Selection Committee to further discuss the project and how
our team can fulfill your complete needs. Please contact us if you desire any
additional information. We also encourage you to call our references, because we
take pride in the level of service we provide the airports we serve. Thank you for
your interest and consideration.

1 Introduction
�J Morrison Maierle, Inc. airport engineering and
planning staff are very fortunate to have local
knowledge of the issues affecting the development
of the Kalispell City Airport.
Two experienced Morrison-Maierle airport engineers
and planners in our Kalispell Office will be part of
the Master Plan team. Terry Richmond will serve
as Project Principal providing top level liaison with
the Airport Authority and quality assurance at the
corporate level. Tony Feilzer, an airport planner
and engineer will be a key member of the Master
Plan team.
Our team includes a recognized professional in
radio station design and communication needs
including tower locations and construction. To
address airspace and future terminal instrument
procedure issues, our team also includes experts
who can analyze an airports needs independent of
FAA personnel, and present their findings and
recommendations to both the Airport Authority and
FAA Flight Standards airspace specialists.
Airport master plans are dynamic documents and
the need to prepare a Kalispell City Airport master
plan has been accelerated by unusual growth and
dramatic changes in the area that the airport
serves.
This Statement of Qualification addresses the
criteria referenced in your notification and also
includes our approach to your needs and our
understanding of your concerns. We have
assembled a team of qualified professionals for this
study and invite your careful review of our
credentials.
Morrison-Maierle will employ subconsultants with
special expertise in their field during the master
planning process to consult on problems unique to
1-1
the Kalispell City Airport, or to provide services
more economically than MMI can do with in-house
personnel. Use of any subconsultants will be
subject to client approval.
Morrison-Maierle will provide clear lines of authority
and communications for the Kalispell City Airport
Authority. MMI management is committed to
assign competent, experienced personnel to the
project planning team in order to complete the
master plan in a timely manner, tailored to meet
your needs.
The "tabs" separating the SOQ sections generally
correspond to the listed criteria. Our airport
brochure and other information may be found
following the Supplemental Information tab.
2 Po ten tial Issues
Including AM Radio
To wers
2. 1 Existing Airport
The Kalispell City Airport has been in
existence at its present location since 1928 when
the City of Kalispell purchased 135 acres on the
southeastern edge of the City to establish a
municipal airport.
Currently, one of the busiest general aviation
airports in Montana, the airport supports three
Fixed Base Operators. Runway 13-31 is 3,600 ft
by 60', and is served by a full parallel taxiway on
east and a partial parallel taxiway on the west.
At the present time, the airport has multiple
deficiencies and does not meet any FAA airport
design standards.
There have been several studies of the airport
including:
1979 TAP, Inc. uMini Master Plan"
1993 "Kalispell City Airport Neighborhood Plan"
1996 "Kalispell City Airport Redevelopment Plan"
1996 "Preliminary Airport Layout Plan" Drawings
None of these plans have been implemented due to
lack of consensus, financing or commitment by
either/or both the public and private sectors served
by the Airport. The Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) has historically refused funding for
improvements because of Kalispell City's proximity
to Glacier Park International Airport and the State
of Montana Aeronautics Division has been unable
to fund needed improvements. The State,
however, currently has limited loan and grant funds
available, and provided funding for the recent
airport layout plan update.
Because of the number of based aircraft and the
airport activity (number of operations), the FAA is
funding a Master Plan study to determine: (1) can
the airport be developed to FAA standards, and (2)
if so, should the FAA fund development given the
airport's proximity to Glacier Park International.
As part of the FAA's Master Planning criteria, a
determination will be made at the end of the first
phase of the study process to determine whether or
not the existing airport should be developed, or if a
new airport is needed. This issue is one that will
need to be addressed, at least preliminarily in initial
phases of the study process.
2.2 Key Issues
Some of the Key Issues which will need to be
addressed are:
® Approach Protection, including both Runway
13 (neighborhood encroachments) and
Runway 31 (AM Radio Towers)
® Runway design standards, i.e., B-I, B-II, and
alignment.
® Environmental, particularly land use and
noise due to Runway 13 approach and traffic
patterns.
® Airspace - AM Radio Towers and evaluation
of potential future instrument procedure
conflicts with Glacier Park International.
® Through the fence operations. The FAA will
need to be satisfied that businesses and
individuals which have access to airport
facilities from non -airport owned property are
paying to support the airport operation and
maintenance
� Proximity to Glacier Park International Airport
® Other potential airport sites.
® Public Participation - Additional key issues
will be developed by public participation
during the master planning process. These
issues, along with those identified above,
will need to be addressed in the Master Plan.
The public participation process is discussed
in Section 3.
2.3 AM Radio Towers
KGEZ Broadcast Tower Assessment
The master plan will evaluate the impact of the
location of two existing AM broadcast radio towers
located approximately one mile from, and
penetrating the approach path of, Runway 31. The
325 foot -high towers are owned by KGEZ radio
station, a class B AM station (not a clear channel
operation) operating at 5000 watts daytime and
1000 watts nighttime. The two -tower phasing
system provides two -directional pattern protection.
Morrison-Maierle will retain the services of a
professional broadcast engineering consultant to
address the needs, issues and costs of master plan
alternatives associated with the towers. Mr. Tim
Cutforth, P.E. is a certified broadcast engineer with
30 years in the industry and 19 years as a
consulting broadcast engineer. He is the owner of
Vir James, P.C., Broadcast Engineering Consultants
located in Denver, Colorado and has evaluated and
designed AM broadcast tower systems for
numerous radio and broadcast stations.
Issues to be addressed relative to the towers'
location include modifying the towers or relocating
the towers as may be compared to reorienting or
relocating the runway. Alternatives affecting the
towers' location would be identified and developed
in close consultation with KGEZ radio station. Any
modification of the towers will require an FCC
application process. Relocating the towers means
an application process equivalent to applying for a
new radio station which could require from six
months to two years lead time.
2-3
Tower sites must meet strict location requirements
and require close calibration in accordance with
FCC rules. It is imperative that any solution
involving the modification or relocation of the
towers not interrupt, or at least minimize the
interruption of, the operation of the station. The
evaluation of tower alternatives would incorporate
the following:
® Identification of requirements to meet FCC rules
for coverage of the area.
® Lowering the towers. The option of lowering
the height of the towers would be investigated.
It may be possible to lower the towers and
compensate for the resulting loss of power by
increasing the transmitter power and still meet
the minimum efficiency set by the FCC. This
may involve techniques, such as top loading the
towers, to maintain efficiency. Since 1992,
stations are no longer limited to 5000 watts.
® Relocation of the towers. The tower site
requires sufficient area to accommodate the
ground system which could be approximately 15
or more acres. The location and orientation of
the site is important in meeting coverage
requirements. The general location and land
area requirements will be identified. Broadcast
tower sites are typically difficult to locate due to
public opposition and the not -in -my -back -yard
philosophy. A relocation could require
substantial effort to locate and get approved, a
new site.
® Share a site with other towers in the area. It is
possible for stations to share sites and to share
towers.
® Benefits to KGEZ operation. It will be explored
with the station owners if there are any
potential benefits to the station which may be
considered as part of any modification to their
operation resulting from the proposed airport
improvements. It is possible that the station
would like to take advantage of any new
application process to upgrade their operation,
possibly to increase their broadcast power.
® FCC regulations and standards. All tower
designs and specifications will be performed in
accordance with FCC rules, procedures and
standards.
It should be noted that the amount of penetration
varies with threshold location. However, the 1996
Preliminary ALP indicates an 108 foot penetration
in the ultimate approach slope, and an 173 foot
penetration in the ultimate horizontal surface.
2.4 Air Space Analysis
Airport Layout Plans require air space clearance
from FAA Flight Standards. Morrison-Maierle
proposes to use NAC Ltd., an organization of
retired FAA flight standards and airport engineers to
independently analyze the airspace issues and make
recommendations to the Airport Authority.
In addition to the issues of marking and lighting the
towers as an acceptable alternative to relocation of
the towers, an analysis will be made of the effect
of the towers on landing or takeoff minimums
should non -precision instrument approaches
(NDB/GPS) be a future consideration.
Any potential conflict with Glacier Park
International Airport instrument procedures will also
be evaluated.
2.5 Design Standards
Design standards will need to be resolved. The
Airport Authority, in the past, has indicated a desire
to bring the airport up to FAA B-I design criteria.
The FAA normally requires land acquisition and
ultimate design to a minimum B-II standard, and
often times, depending on forecasts, to runway
lengths suitable for 100% of the aircraft under a
12,500 gross weight.
There are a significant number of conflicts with
buildings and other facilities such as taxiway to
runway dimensional standards which will need to
be resolved in the Master Plan process to obtain
FAA approval of the airport layout plan.
2.6 Environmental - Noise Analysis
Off all the environmental issues, noise will need to
be evaluated due to the Airport's close proximity to
the city and potential increase in traffic and twin
engine aircraft if the Airport was brought up to FAA
design standards. The FAA planner has advised a
noise analysis will be required as a part of the
planning process.
The noise analysis is an integral component of
developing and maintaining land uses near Kalispell
City Airport compatible with airport development.
3 Public Involvement
Program
1 Ability to Develop and Implement a Public
Participation Program for the Project
3. 1 Project Approach
The Projects listed in the Request for Qualifications
included:
® Master Plan Development
® Environmental Assessment to include Noise,
Land Use, and Runway Extension Issues.
® AM Radio Tower Evaluation - Impacts or IFR,
VFR and costs to relocate/remove.
The object of the Kalispell City Airport Master
Planning and Environmental Assessment Studies
are to provide guidelines for future development
which are compatible with the environment and will
satisfy state, regional and local air transportation
needs.
FAA Advisory Circular AC 150/5070-6A Airport
Master Plans and FAA Order 5050.4 Airport
Environmental Handbook outline the work scope
and work flow for airport planning studies and
airport environmental assessments.
In general, a planning project is divided into several
phases and subphases. The major phases are:
® Organization and Preplanning
- Consultant Selection
- Consultant Contract
® Phase I Study Process
- Inventory
- Forecasts
Facility Requirements
- Public Participation
® Determination to Improve Existing Airport,
relocate to a new site, or to do nothing
® Phase II Improve Existing Airport Study Process
- Confirm Forecasts
- Financial Analysis
- Prepare Plans
- Public Hearings
- Environmental Analysis for FAA ALP
Approval
- FAA Airport Layout Plan Approval -Existing
Airport
M
® Phase II New Airport Study Process
- Organize Site Selection Process
- Develop Site Selection Evaluation Criteria
- Public Hearings
- Environmental Analysis for FAA Site
Approval
- FAA Site Approval
- Master Plan Approved Site
- FAA Airport Layout Plan Approval - New
Airport
Phase III Environmental Assessment (EA)
- An EA may be required prior to funding
proposed improvements because a
"categorical exclusion" cannot be issued for
new airports, runway extensions or
relocations.
- Prepare Draft Environmental Assessment
- FAA Review
- Public Hearing Opportunity
- Final Environmental Assessment with
Comments submitted to FAA
- FAA issues Finding of No Significant Impact
Statement (FONSI) or implements
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
procedure.
Environmental Assessments may be completed as
part of an Master Plan Update, or as a stand alone
effort. In the case of the Kalispell City Airport, the
Environmental Assessment could be a stand alone
effort.
During the interview and contract negotiation, we
will define the work to be accomplished in each
element of the planning process, define the output
(working paper, draft report, etc.) and specify the
key staff who will work on that element. A project
schedule and a project flow chart for the
corresponding study elements will also be
developed. The flow chart will also show the key
staff assigned to each study element.
MMI will commit the staff identified in this
Statement of Qualifications and during the
interview to the study team. Key personnel
assignments will be confirmed in the contract
negotiated with the Kalispell City Airport Authority.
The project team that will be working with you on
this project has previously completed planning
studies and environmental assessments as
prescribed by the FAA circulars and handbooks.
Our experience with this process also includes
working with the Northwest Mountain Regional
Office of the FAA, Montana State agencies, local
governments, the general public and interest
groups. It is this experience with completing the
work items outlined above and described below
which will enable us to provide the Kalispell City
Airport Authority with a complete, comprehensive
Airport Master Plan Study and Environmental
Assessment, tailored to your needs and delivered in
a timely, cost effective manner.
3.2 Project Coordination and Public
Participation
Immediately following the consultant selection
process, a Scoping and Scheduling Conference with
Kalispell City Airport Authority Members, City
Planners, Airport Manager and Airport Tenants,
3-3
FAA, other interested parties and MMI's Study
Team will be scheduled to refine the specific scope
of work and to assure that all planning items make
the most efficient use of federal, state and local
funds.
In addition to the initial conference, we will plan
progress meetings as key elements of the studies
are completed. We will also meet and work with
whatever group(s) or individuals are appointed.
Typically, this would include an Advisory or a
Steering Committee appointed by the County
Commission. It is important to receive input from:
® Flathead County
® City of Kalispell
® Local pilots
® Airport Manager
® Fixed Based Operators
® Other commercial airport users
® Montana State Aeronautics
® Federal Aviation Administration
® Private airport lessees
® Area businesses and developers
® Adjacent landowners, and
® Community leaders
We also encourage "public" meetings at various
stages throughout the study process to be certain
that public input is achieved. This is particularly
important in controversial projects, and many times
opposition can be defused by addressing
completely the issues raised at these meetings.
Formal reporting includes:
® Bi-Weekly briefings by telephone
® Monthly written reports
® Advisory Committee meetings
® Other "public meetings" as required
A public information process will be developed
including:
® News Releases
® Newsletters to Advisory Committee and
Interested Citizens
® Public Workshops
Notifications and reviews required by the NEPA
process is a major concern. Mailing lists will be
developed to insure all interested citizens are
afforded the opportunity to review environmental
documents and reports.
3.3 Airport Planning Study Elements
In addition to coordinating the project including
conducting the public participation process, the
following major study elements will be addressed:
® Data Collection/Inventory
® Activity Forecasts
® Demand/Capacity Analysis
® Facility Requirements
® Alternative Plan Concepts
- Develop Existing Airport
- Select New Airport Site
- Do Nothing
® Environmental Review
® Airport Plans
- Airport Layout
- Airport Land Use Plan
- Terminal Area Plan
- Airport Access Plan
® Financial Plan
® Master Plan Documentation
The Master Plan Flow Diagrams on the following
pages illustrate the planning process required for
the development of an existing airport, or the
development of a new site. During contract
negotiation, the personnel assigned to the study
elements will be identified on the flow chart.

Airport Familiarity
J
Two Morrison-Maierle master plan team
members live and work in Kalispell and are familiar
with the Airport and the technical, social and
political issues affecting the development of the
Kalispell City Airport.
Other team members have visited the Airport in the
past, discussed planning issues with some of the
Airport Advisory Committee members. In addition,
team members have discussed the master planning
project with the Montana Aeronautics and the FAA
planners.
Team members have also reviewed the previous
planning documents including:
1979 TAP, Inc. "Mini Master Plan"
1993 "Kalispell City Airport Neighborhood Plan"
1996 "Kalispell City Airport Redevelopment Plan"
1996 "Preliminary Airport Layout Plan" Drawings
All of our team members are experienced airport
planners and engineers. At the end of the scoping
meeting, we will be up to speed with all the
technical planning issues and have a good
understanding of the political issues affecting the
master plan study.

6 Project Quality and
Firm Reputation
6. 1 Project Quality
r
As stated earlier, Morrison-Maierle has recently
completed Master Plan Studies and Environmental
Assessments of projects very similar to the Kalispell
City Airport Project.
At Chinook, the runway was displaced and extended.
Wetlands mitigation was a part of the project.
At Malta, a new airport will be constructed to replace
the existing facility.
At Brigham City, Utah, the existing runway was
extended into a shallow lake. Wetlands mitigation
was involved. The runway was designed for
corporate jet aircraft use.
At Eureka and Colstrip, new airport sites were
selected to serve the local communities.
At Prineville, Oregon, a "mini" master plan/airport
layout plan report was completed under a state
aeronautics contract to resolve land planning issues.
The following table demonstrates the quality of our
design projects at general aviation and air carrier
airports. Morrison-Maierle has experience in a wide
range of airport projects.

6.2 Firm Reputation
A. History and Disciplines
0,
Morrison-Maierle, Inc., is a multi -discipline,
medium sized engineering firm, practicing primarily
in the intermountain and western region of the U.S.
and internationally.
MMI personnel have provided airport engineering
services since the firm's founding 52 years ago.
Following their first airport project in 1946, MMI
engineers have completed over 250 planning,
design and construction projects for air carrier,
commercial service, general aviation, and military
airports. This experience has developed within the
firm, a special recognized expertise relating to

B. Airport Services
Morrison-Maierle, Inc. serves the Western United
States from offices in Montana and Arizona.
Internationally, MMI has provided technical services
for infrastructure development in fourteen countries
in Africa, the Caribbean, Far East, the Middle East
and the Pacific. Airport projects, internationally,
have been completed in Egypt and the Philippines.
+ Runway, Apron and Taxiway Reconstruction or
Rehabilitation: Rehabilitation or reconstruction
of existing pavements is a continuous effort for
all airport owners and is integral in maintaining
airport service. We have completed preliminary
engineering, prepared plans and specifications,
provided construction management and
administrative services for pavement
reconstruction and rehabilitation projects for
airports in Oregon, Montana, Wyoming, Utah
and Arizona.
+ Pavement Types: Typical airport construction
projects include runway, taxiway and apron
construction and reconstruction using asphalt
concrete and Portland Cement concrete paving,
asphalt overlays, asphalt porous friction
courses, coarse graded asphalt emulsion
overlays and stress relieving membrane friction
courses. We also perform pavement
management analysis and have completed a
statewide pavement condition analysis for the
Montana Aeronautics Division.
+ Lighting and NAVAID Improvements: Lighting
system design and construction has been a part
of many recent runway and taxiway
construction and reconstruction projects.
Removal and replacement of runway edge lights,
power systems, and radio controllers are
typical of lighting system reconstruction.
Site selection and grading for terminal
navigational aids (ILS), PAPI, approach lighting
systems (ALS), have rounded out our
involvement.
+ Construction Management and Inspection: MMI
projects have been constructed with a minimum
disruption of air carrier and general aviation
traffic. An early project involving the initial
asphalt overlay of Runway 9/27 at Billings,
Montana was one of the first airport asphalt
paving projects in the U.S. completed at night.
This technique and others have continued to be
developed and improved at other airports.
Much of the firm's Quality Assurance Program
is focused toward the construction phase of the
projects.
+ Terminal Areas: Experience with airport terminal
areas include not only apron development
projects, but also overall project management
and feasibility, airside development and
coordination of the building designs with
airlines, architects and Bond Counsel. Non-
Airside development such as parking lots and
access roads were also included in many of the
projects. Two recent airport master plans have
special emphasis on Terminal Feasibility studies.
+ DBE Plans and Goals: DBE plans have been
prepared for many of the airports that Morrison
Maierle, Inc. has served throughout the years.
The plans have addressed all aspects of the
overall DBE plan for the airport including airport
tenants and vendors, terminal tenants and
leasing. Preparation of project specific DBE
goals are a part of all plans prepared by the
firm. Each project is analyzed for items which
are DBE potentials. They are then segregated in
a cost analysis and serve as a basis for
calculation of a DBE goal for the particular
project. The service includes coordination with
the FAA Civil Rights staff at the FAA Regional
office in Renton, Washington.
During the bidding phase of a project, judgment
of attainment of DBE goals is a critical phase
that has also been an intregal item of MMI
services. Monitoring of DBE participation during
construction and summarization of DBE
participation at project closeout are also services
offered to all MMI airport clients.
+ Passenger Terminal Baggage Handling Facilities:
Numerous new and remodeled terminal projects
with which the firm has been associated have
involved passenger terminal baggage handling
facilities. The most recent firm experience with
such facilities has been at Gallatin Field, MT
and General Santos City Airport in the
Philippines. Past experience of the firm includes
facilities at Helena Regional and Bert Mooney
airports.
+ Airplane Mobility Impaired Facilities & Equipment
Selection: Aircraft lifts and building elevators
have been specified for various airport clients
for a number of years. An aircraft lift device
was specified for Billings Logan International
Airport. Elevators in terminals and other airport
buildings for the mobility impaired have been
specified by MMI. Structural engineering
requirements for these facilities have also been
designed by the firm.
+ Master Plan Updates: Over 30 Master Plans or
Master Plan Updates have been completed for
Air Carrier and General Aviation Airports. These
Master Plan reports have included forecasts,
demand/capacity analysis, development of
facility requirements, layout plans for airside and
groundside facilities, cost estimates, economic
feasibility and environmental assessments.
+ Airport Environmental Assessments: As part of
13 airport master plans and four airport
improvement projects, environmental
assessments have been completed. Each
assessment addressed a variety of environ-
mental concerns including wetlands, biotic
communities, threatened and endangered
species, water quality and floodplains.
Morrison-Maierle, Inc. recently completed
Airport Environmental Assessment Studies at
Brigham City, Utah; Lusk and Greybull,
Wyoming; Redmond, Oregon; and Colstrip,
Eureka, Chinook, Fort Benton, and Butte,
Montana.
+ Land Acquisition: Land Acquisition under the
FAA grant program requires a fairly rigorous
schedule of procedures. MMI provides
assistance to airport owners to ensure that all
FAA requirements are met. This assistance
generally includes: performing a legal land
survey; soliciting appraisers, review appraisers,
and negotiators; aiding the Owner with the
selection of an appraiser, review appraiser, and
negotiator; submitting Appraisal and Negotiation
Contracts to the FAA for review; preparing a
certificate of Fee Title, Certificate of Compliance
and Relocation and Real Property Acquisition
Assurances for signature by the Owner and
legal representative; updating the ALP and the
Exhibit "A" property map; and summarizing
project costs and submitting the FAA Requests
for Reimbursement.
+ Airport Layout Plan Updates: As part of each
airport improvement project which involves the
development or new airport master plans, an
Airport Layout Plan (ALP) update has been part
of MMI work efforts. We have updated over
100 ALP's and have prepared over 25 ALP's
from their inception. We recently upgraded
LP's at Bert Mooney, Helena, Bozeman, West
Yellowstone, Eureka, and Wheatland in
compliance with the FAA - Airport Design
Advisory Circular 150/-5300-13, using
AutoCAD, a computer aided design and drafting
program which greatly assists in the preparation
and revision of documents.
Clients
The firm's clients number in the thousands and
have included cities, towns, utility districts,
counties, state agencies, U.S. Government
Agencies, private clients, industry, tribal govern-
ments and foreign governments. In working with
our clients, MMI has been instrumental in
expediting project design and implementation as a
result of our thorough knowledge of program
requirements and clients' needs. A large number of
our clients are repeat clients for whom we have
provided services over many years.

9. Schedules and Cost
Control
9. l Performance Record and Ability to Meet
Schedules
, oCA� Definition and adherence to airport master plan
study schedules which are subject to public, federal
and state agency review is often difficult to compare
and measure. Reaching a successful conclusion is
sometimes the best measure of achievement. In
addition to the completion data provided in Section 5,
the release of a Finding of No Significant Impact
(FONSI) by the Federal Aviation Administration for
Environmental Assessments is also a good measure of
performance. The following table identifies some of
the key milestone dates toward reaching a FONSI.

Most planning studies have taken from nine to 18
months to complete, including review time. Simple
master plan updates can be completed in the shorter
time frame. Air carrier projects take longer. If studies
are controversial due to any number of factors
(proposed improvements, environmental, etc.) study
periods can approach a two year time frame.
9-1
MMI project experience not only demon-strates the
firm's ability to meet schedules, but its ability to
produce appropriate and accurate cost estimates used
by airport authorities for program budgeting and
financing.
The length of time for the Kalispell City Airport Study
will depend on the final negotiated work scope. The
contract period could vary from 12 to 24 months,
depending on whether or not an EA document will be
prepared, as well as the final master plan documen-
tation required for existing or a new airport site.

10 FAA Regulations
and DBE Plan
10.1 FAA Experience and Knowledge of
Regulations
A
I�
J Our FAA experience started with the CAA in
1946. We participated in the FAAP, ADAP and AIP
Federal grant programs. We have seen FAA design
standards grow from a single volume (1958) to a
bookcase full of Advisory Circulars.
We understand the rationale of the FAA design
criteria for general aviation airports, and the
administration of FAA grant programs. We coordinate
almost daily with one of the FAA district offices or
the Regional office. We understand the FAA's DBE
program.
On most of our airport projects, we administer the
project from the preapplication preparation through
project closeout.
Team experience with the FAA includes site selection,
master plans, environmental assessments, grant
management of studies and construction projects,
design, bidding and construction inspection of
federally assisted projects.
We use when appropriate, Regional FAA check lists
and ADO Notices to insure submittals to the FAA
meet their criteria. This is particularly important for
master plan reports and airport layout plan drawings.
In summary, we believe our past experience and
ongoing airport master planning projects demonstrate
familiarization with FAA and AIP procedures,
requirements, design methods, construction standards
and FAA regulations.

10.2 Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE1
Plan
Morrison-Maierle, Inc., has a published Affirmative
Action Plan and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise
Plan. We are audited annually by the State Highway
Department on behalf of DOT agencies for compliance
with DOT Title VI Assurances.
We work with selected bona fide DBE's with
professional and technical staff capable to perform
the engineering and technical services required. We
also contract with DBE firms for furnishing
administrative support and engineering supplies.
In addition to meeting the Airport's goal for
professional services, we will coordinate the
construction contract DBE goals with the FAA
Regional Office in Seattle, Washington.
The following are airports where we recently
completed DBE plans as part of airport improvement
projects:
Brigham City Airport, UT
Helena Regional Airport, MT
Phifer Field, Wheatland, WY
Colstrip Airport, MT
Eureka Airport, MT
West Yellowstone Airport, MT
Chinook Airport, MT
Dubois Airport, WY
Within each of these plans are scopes of projected
construction work within the coming fiscal year. A
goal for Disadvantaged Business Enterprise
participation is developed and this becomes the basis
for future efforts to encourage DBE involvement.
We maintain the DBE directories from each of the
Northwest States in which we work. Morrison-Maierle
is familiar with many of the DBE firms which work in
Montana and their areas of expertise.
There is limited potential for in -state professional
service DBE firms to accomplish the work which you
are seeking to have done. At MMI we strive to
provide most of these services to the client from
within our corporation, however, in addition to the
areas of electrical design on airports and material
testing, which we traditionally look for outside help,
we sometimes contract for field surveying.
The following is our estimate of the amount of work
involved with subcontracting opportunities for this
project. A range is provided as the exact percentages
are very much dependent on the amount of work
identified.
