CHAPTER 10 – HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS - sacog

Airports
Potential hazards in relationship to airport operations are generally regulated by the Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA), with local planning and evaluation of proposed projects (in
terms of a proposed project’s compatibility in relationship to air and ground operations and the
safety of the public) under the authority of the Airport Land Use Commission (ALUC) through
Airport Land Use Compatibility Plans (ALUCPs). Figure 10.6 shows the airport buffer zones in
the SACOG region; Table 10.5 lists the Airports in the SACOG region. The private airports in
the region are depicted in Figure 10.7.
