OAN 78-2019 AIRFIELD FIBRE CABLE INSTALLATION PHASE 1.
OAN REF:- 78/2019 DATE OF ISSUE:- 24/07/19 EFFECTIVE DATE:- 05/08/19 EXPIRY DATE:- 30/08/19
1.0 SUMMARY
1.1 Two new Data Centre Facilities are currently being installed to accommodate the installation of new equipment whilst maintaining old systems and services. One data centre is in the R2/3 Substation on the south of the airfield and another is in room S2006 on Stand 206 Terminal 2. In order to connect the two data centres, a 14km fibre optic cable is to be installed over a three-month period. This OAN details the first of five phases of the installation.
2.0 PROGRAMME
2.1 Overall; from Monday 5th August to Friday 23rd August 2019. One week has been added to the OAN as a contingency week.
2.2 Nominal daily working hours will be Monday to Friday 07:00-17:30L.
2.3 Nominal nightly working hours will be Monday to Friday 20:00-06:00.
2.4 Nightly working hours within the 23R ILS critical area and Taxiway Alpha during the scheduled 05L/23R RWY closure will 23:59-06:00L. 3.0 SCOPE & LOCATION OF WORKS
3.1 The first phase on the fibre optic cable installation runs from R2/3 Substation on the south of the airfield, along the southern edge of Runway 2 to the midpoint turning circle where it crosses the runway. It then runs along the north side of Runway 2 and vacates the airfield and enters the 23R localiser restricted area. From there it runs across the Bollin Valley up to the arrester bed, alongside the arrester bed to the edge of Taxiway Alpha and then along the edge of the taxiway up to and in to the B1b Substation.
3.2 The cable drum will be positioned to the north of Runway 05R/23L in the grass next to the perimeter road.
3.3 The attached drawing gives the exact cable routing.
4.0 OPERATIONAL IMPLICATIONS
4.1 The cable-pull into the 23R localiser area and then back on to the airfield, along Taxiway Alpha to Substation B1b will take place on the nights of the scheduled runway closures between the hours of 23:59 and 06:00L under ASCO safety oversight. OAN 75-2019 refers.
4.2 The pull across Runway 05R/23L will take place a night during the night time closure of the runway under ASCO safety oversight.
4.3 The cable pulls along the north and southside of Runway 05R/23L are outside of the runway clear and graded areas and will take place during the day under ASCO safety oversight.

5.0 LOW VISIBILITY OPERATIONS (LVO)
5.1. The work will have no effect on the airport’s ability to operate during periods of low visibility.
5.2 Work will be cancelled in the event of forecast LVOs
