(AFFSA/AFFSA FIL 04-146)

a. Bird Watch Condition SEVERE - High bird population on or immediately above the active runway or other specific location that represents a high potential for strike. Supervisors and aircrews must thoroughly evaluate mission need before conducting operations in areas under condition SEVERE. Only full stop landings are permitted. Operational commanders will consider delaying departures and arrivals and diverting aircraft.
(AFFSA/AFFSA)

b. Bird Watch Condition MODERATE - Increased bird population in locations which represent an increased potential for strike. This condition requires increased vigilance by all agencies and supervisors and caution by aircrews. Pilots will limit patterns work to a minimum.
(AFFSA/AFFSA FIL 03-58)

c. Bird Watch Condition LOW - Normal bird activity on and above the airfield with a low probability of hazard.
4.
Any flight operation which may require an extension of operating hours beyond those published requires prior coordination with the airfield manager during duty hours; 24 hours notice is required. Aircrews must comply with pre-coordinated arrival/departure times to ensure support. Early arrivals can expect to be held until pre-coordinated time. Uncontrolled airfield operations are not authorized.

5.
Any inbound aircraft carrying hazardous cargo (AFJI 11- 204) will contact Airfield Operations on Pilot to Dispatcher 30 minutes prior to arrival; if no answer, contact Spaceport Control on 311.0 or 321.0.

6.
SERVICING LIMITS - Ramp workload may cause servicing delays and unexpected remaining overnight for aircraft landing after 2300Z++. Plan to land, reservice and depart during airfield operating hours. Contact Pilot to Dispatcher/Command Post 30 minutes before arrival for updated information and advisories.

7.
RESTRICTED AIRSPACE - To enter R2516 obtain IFR clearance from Los Angeles (KLAX) CENTER, or if VFR contact Tower 30 NM out. If authorized, specify requirement to fly in R2517. For Range Operations, expect to contact Frontier Control on appropriate frequency. See IFR Supplement: WESTERN RANGE (30th SPACE WING).

8. NOISE ABATEMENT - Extremely noise sensitive area over Lompoc, E of base. Avoid overflying city until on final approach or as directed by ATC. Rotary wing not authorized over base housing area. Use aircraft configuration that will minimize engine noise. The following applies to B-52 and C-135 type aircraft executing Rwy 30 approach only. On initial approach, request aircraft delay descent from step-down altitude to FAF altitude until 10 DME. For aircraft executing multiple approaches, expect radar pattern altitude of 4000’ MSL. Request delayed descent from 4000’ to FAF altitude until 11 DME. Point Purisima (VBG R283/3 DME) and the neighboring terrain is the nesting area for the endangered bird species known as the California Least Tern and the Western Snowy Plover. Point Arguello (VBG R183/7.5 DME) and the neighboring terrain is the nesting area for the endangered bird species known as the Peregrine Falcon. All aircraft will avoid overflight of these areas at a slant range of greater than 1900’ from 1 March until 30 September each year for Point Purisima and 15 February until 31 August for Point Arguello. It is a violation of federal law to disrupt nesting birds during the time frame mentioned. The coastal area under restricted areas R2516 and R2517 are considered marine mammal haul out areas and will be avoided year round by a slant range of no less than 500’ due to the presence of protected mammals.
