14 CFR Ch. I (1–1–24 Edition) 

§ 151.15 

(2) In-runway lighting is required as 

part of a project: 

(i) If the project includes: 
(

a

) Construction of a new runway 

designated by the FAA as an instru-
ment landing runway for which the in-
stallation of an IFR precision approach 
system including ALS and ILS, has 
been programmed by the FAA with 
funds then available therefor; 

(

b

) An extension of 3,000 feet or more 

(usable for landing purposes) of the ap-
proach end of a designated instrument 
landing runway equipped, or programed 
by the FAA, with funds then available 
therefor, to be equipped, with an IFR 
precision approach system including 
ALS and ILS; 

(

c

) Reconstruction of a designated in-

strument landing runway equipped, or 
programed by the FAA, with funds 
then available therefor, to be equipped 
with an IFR precision approach system 
including ALS and ILS, if the recon-
struction requires the closing of the 
runway; or 

(

d

) Any other airport development on 

an airport whose designated instru-
ment landing runway is equipped, or 
programed by the FAA, with funds 
then available therefor, to be equipped 
with an IFR precision approach system 
including ALS and ILS; and 

(ii) Only if a study of the airport 

shows that in-runway lighting is re-
quired for the safe and efficient use of 
the airport by aircraft, after the Ad-
ministrator considers the following: 

(

a

) The type and volume of flight ac-

tivity; 

(

b

) Other existing or planned naviga-

tional aids; 

(

c

) Airport environmental factors 

such as local weather conditions and 
adjacent geographic profiles; 

(

d

) Approach and departure paths; 

(

e

) Effect on landing and takeoff 

minima; and 

(

f

) In the case of projects under para-

graph (b)(2)(i)(

d

) of this section, wheth-

er installing in-runway lighting re-
quires closing the runway for so long a 
time that the adverse effect on safety 
of its closing would outweigh the con-
tribution to safety that would be 
gained by the in-runway lights or 
whether it would unduly interfere with 
the efficiency of aircraft operations. 

(3) High intensity runway edge light-

ing on the designated instrument land-
ing runway is required as a part of a 
project whenever that runway is 
equipped or programmed for the instal-
lation of an ILS and high intensity 
runway edge lights are not then in-
stalled on the runway or included in 
another project. A project for extend-
ing a runway that has high intensity 
runway edge lights on the existing run-
way requires, as a part of the project, 
the extension of the high intensity run-
way edge lights. 

(4) Runway distance markers whose 

design standards have been approved 
and published by the FAA are required 
as a part of a project on a case-by-case 
basis if, after reviewing the pertinent 
facts and circumstances of the case, 
the Administrator determines that 
they are needed for the safe and effi-
cient use of the airport by aircraft.

§ 151.15 Federal-aid Airport Program: 

Policy affecting runway or taxiway 

remarking. 

No project for developing or improv-

ing an airport may be approved for the 
Program unless it provides for runway 
or taxiway remarking if the present 
marking is obliterated by construction, 
alteration or repair work included in a 
FAAP project or by the required rout-
ing of construction equipment used 
therein.
