The relatively short runoff length of 2,571 feet supports a threshold siting surface of 15:1, at 2000 lineal feet from the end of the runway, a structure must be less than 133 feet above the elevation of the airport (2,221 MSL). At 2,000 lineal feet from the end of the runway, a structure must be less than 100 feet above 2,221 MSL supporting the runway approach surface. In summary, no structure shall perforate the following surfaces: 15:1 for existing threshold siting surface and 20:1 for approach surface. 11.3.15 EIectrical interference with navigational signals or radio communication between the airport and aircraft is prohibited and will be regulated in accordance with rules and regulations promulgated and enforced by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations. 11.3.16 Activities or uses that create lighting which make it difficult for pilots to distinguish between airport lights and non -airport lights or that create glare in the eyes of pilots using the airport are prohibited. All outdoor lighting fixtures shall be arranged and shielded so that area lighting shall not shine into the sky. 11.3.17 Activities or uses that create excessive amounts of dust, smoke, or other emissions that may result in impairment of visibility in the vicinity of the airport are discouraged and will be regulated in accordance with rules and regulations promulgated and enforced by the Washington State Department of Ecology under the Clean Air Act and other state and federal regulations. 11.3.18 Following review of title documents, any access to the multitude of access casements through Section 1, shall not be inhibited by a gate or similar structure. 11.4 Easton School District 11.4.1 In a comment letter dated June 13th, 2017, the Easton School District identifies concerns related to capital costs and inadequate school impact fees collectable under RCW 82.02.050. Using the maximum impact projected in the FEIS, the District's calculations project a $100,000 budget deficit. The District expressed concerns that the District's currently low levy rates will have to be increased to cover the shortfall. 11.4.2 County Analysis On page 139 of the FEIS, mitigation measures are proposed.
