Rev. 02/01/22 Page 2 of2 Service. Solutions. Results. PASSERO From: Michael Joseph Sent: Thursday, April 17, 2025 3:30 PM To: Cheryl Ford dordertivofamll2.om> Cc: Logan Smith Subject: Camilla fencing Hi Cheryl, Per our conversation this afternoon, following are some notes related to the available funding for the perimeter security fencing project at Camilla-Mitchell County Airport: 1. GDOT informed us that the City can receive federal funding for only a 5' tall woyen wire fence. This would be your "typical" 90% federal, 5% state, 5% local split. 2. A5' tall chain link fence is eligible for funding ifthe fence is within 500' of a terminal area. 3. To receive funding for any amount of fence greater than 5', > the City must provide written adoption of a wildlife hazard site visit. 4. Ifthe wildlife hazard site visit deems wildlife fencing is warranted, the costs associated with the site visit and associated report are eligible for reimbursement at 90% (most likely to be paid back to the City in the fencing construction grant). 5. Per the AIP Handbook, ifthe fence is deemed necessary to discourage wildlife based on the wildlife hazard site visit report, it must meet FAA design standards for wildlife fencing. a. Per FAA CertAlert 16-03, issued 8/04/2016, "The FAA recommends a 10-foot fence with 3- strand barbed wire outriggers. In some cases, an airport may be able to use an 8-foot fence with 3-strand barbed-wire outriggers, depending on the amount of deer activity in a local area.' 97 b. The wildlife exclusion fence fabric could be woven wire or chain link. C. It should be noted that wildlife exclusion fence can be significantly more expensive than typical security fence, as a wildlife deterrent fence skirt is required to be buried several inches below the ground surface. 6. An option, if the City would like to install an "upgraded" version of the perimeter fence regardless of what GDOT will fund, is to do the following: a. Solicit competitive bids for 5' woven wire fence and for 6' fence with 3 strands of barbed wire (for example). b. GDOT provides funding equivalent to the 5' woven wire fence. C. The City contracts with the low bidder to install 6' fence with 3 strands of barbed wire. d. The City pays the difference between the two bid prices. 7. GDOT's required schedule, in order for the City to not risk losing expiring non-primary entitlement funds from 4 years ago: a. Advertise for bids by the end of May 2025. b. Open bids at the end of June 2025. C. Execute a contract between GDOT and the City in July 2025. In observance of Good Friday, our offices are closed tomorrow. But please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions after you've had an opportunity to discuss the items above with Mayor Owens. Michael R.

Please exercise caution and DO NOT open attachments or click links from unknown senders or unexpected email. Hi Cheryl, I hope you had a nice weekend! Just following up to see if you had any direction for us regarding the proposed security fencing at Camilla-Mitchell County Airport. I think these are the two questions we need answers on soon: 1. Would you like to proceed with a wildlife hazard site visit (and report) to try to justify a taller fence than the 5' one that is initially eligible for funding? First step would be for us to solicit a few proposals to perform that work. 2. Ifnot, do you want us to proceed with specifying the 5' tall woven wire fence for the entire project? Ifyou'd like to discuss this in more detail, I'm available today other than from about 12-2pm and tomorrow other than 10:30am-12pm and 3:30-4pm. Thanks! Michael R.

Please exercise caution and DO NOT open attachments or click links from unknown senders or unexpected email. Cheryl, We've received a proposal from our subconsultant for the wildlife site visit and associated narrative report. In total, the City should expect to commit to approximately $20,000.00 for this work. This would include $15,450.00 for the wildlife site visit and narrative report, plus some additional fee for Passero's services in coordinating the effort with GDOT, the City, and our subconsultant. As a reminder, the City would be committing to paying for 100% of this fee up front and would only get reimbursed 90% of the cost if the wildlife assessment deems there is wildlife present that justifies improved fencing (height or material type, or both). Given the recent deer strike and other anecdotal evidence, we it is likely the study will justify improved fencing, but we can't say for sure. Please let me know your thoughts, and if this would need to go before council for a vote. If the City would like us to move forward with the wildlife site visit, we will put a formal proposal together for the work. Thanks, Logan Smith, PE From: Cheryl Ford cfordeclyofamla.om Sent: Wednesday, May 21, 2025 11:46 AM To: Logan Smith Subject: Habitat Study EXTERNAL Good Morning Logan, I received your voice mail yesterday and was reaching out to get additional information on the wildlife habitat study.

The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) is planning an ionospheric experiment for April 15, 2026. For this experiment, AFRL will be setting up an array ofi ionospheric sounders (transmitters and receivers) along the gulf coast of Florida and parts of Georgia. AFRL would like to use the Camilla-Mitchell County Airport property for one of the sounder sites. Please see attached slides for details of the antennas, site requirements and where the antennas might be located on the airport property. The equipment would be set up for about 3 weeks (one week to set up all of the sites, one week for the experiment, and one week to uninstall all of the sites). AFRL personnel would perform all of the set up and tear down. AFRL is currently planning a site survey trip for the week of. June 9, 2025. We realize that this is short notice, but it would be great if our team could visit your facility on June 10, 2025? This trip might be postponed due to logistics, SO this is not a hard date yet.
