§ 151.89
§ 151.87 Lighting and electrical work:
Standards.
(a)–(b) [Reserved]
(c) The number of runways that are
eligible for lighting is the same as the
number eligible for paving under
§ 151.77, § 151.79, or § 151.80.
(d) The installing of high intensity
runway edge lighting is eligible on a
designated instrument landing runway
and any other runway with approved
straight-in approach procedures. A run-
way that is eligible for lighting, but
does not meet the requirements for 75
percent U.S. participation under
§ 151.43(d), is eligible for 50 percent U.S.
participation in the costs of high inten-
sity runway edge lighting (or the al-
lowable percentage in § 151.43(c) for
public land States), if the airport is
served by a navigational aid that will
allow using instrument approach pro-
cedures. If a runway is not eligible for
75 or 50 percent Federal participation
in high intensity runway edge lighting
but is otherwise eligible for runway
lighting, the U.S. share of the cost of
runway edge lighting is 50 percent of
the cost of the lighting installed but
not more than 50 percent of the cost of
medium intensity lighting.
(e) In-runway lighting (touchdown
zone lighting system, and centerline
lighting system) is eligible on the des-
ignated instrument landing runway.
(f) Taxiways to eligible runways on
airports served by transport aircraft
are eligible for lighting. On airports
serving only general aviation, the
lighting of connecting taxiways is eli-
gible if the runway served is lighted or
is programed to be lighted. The light-
ing of a parallel taxiway is eligible if
the taxiway is eligible for paving.
Lighting of other taxiways is eligible
or not, depending on the complexity of
the taxiway system.
(g) Floodlighting of aprons is eligible
if there is a proven need for it, includ-
ing a showing of night operations
where the runway is lighted.
(h) Any airport that is eligible to
participate in the costs of runway
lighting is eligible for the installing of
an airport beacon, lighted wind indi-
cator, obstruction lights, lighting con-
trol equipment, and other components
of basic airport lighting, including sep-
arate transformer vaults and connec-
tion to the nearest available power
source.
(i) The interconnection of two or
more power sources on an airport prop-
erty, the providing of second sources of
power, and the installing of standby
engine generators of reasonable capac-
ity, are eligible under the program.
(j) Economy approach lighting aids
are eligible for inclusion in a project at
an airport that will not qualify within
the next three years for approach light-
ing aids installed by FAA under the
Facilities and Equipment Program if
the economy approach lighting aids—
(1) Will correct a visual deficiency on
one of the lighted runways of the air-
port; or
(2) Will permit operations at an air-
port at lower minimums.
‘‘Economy approach lighting aids’’ in-
cludes a medium intensity approach
lighting system (MALS) that may in-
clude a sequence flasher (SF); a runway
end identifier lights system (REILS):
and an abbreviated visual approach
slope indicator (AVASI).
(k) Appendix F of this part sets forth
typical eligible and ineligible items of
airport lighting covered by § 151.86 and
this section.

§ 151.89 Roads.
(a) Federal-aid Airport Program
funds may not be used to resolve high-
way problems. Only those airport en-
trance roads that are definitely needed
and are intended only as a way in and
out of the airport are eligible.
(b) The construction, alteration, and
repair of airport roads and streets that
are entirely within the airport bound-
aries are eligible under the program, if
needed for operating and maintaining
the airport. In the case of an entrance
road, a strip right-of-way joining the
main body of the airport to the nearest
public road may be considered a part of
the normal boundary of the airport if—
(1) Adequate title is obtained;
