Project Description.
ITEM # 1 OVERLAY RUNWAY 17-35
Paris Airport
Runway 17-35 is 6,000 feet long by 150 feet wide. The PCC pavement was constructed
in the 1940's, and received an HMA overlay in the 1970's. The runway has significant
reflection cracks. The pavement should receive an HMA overlay to protect the
pavement and extend the service life of the pavement.
ITEM # 2 MARK RUNWAY 17-35
Runway 17-35 will be marked as a Non-Precision Ins#rument approach runway.
ITEM # 3 EXTEND PARALLEL TAXIWAY to RWY 35
Taxiway "A", the parallel taxiway for runway 17-35, should be extended to the south end
of Runway 17-35 to complete the parallel taxiway. The pavement should be designed to
match the strength of the runway,
ITEM # 4 OVERLAY PARALLEL TAXIWAY
The central portion of the parallel taxiway was constructed with PCC in the 1940's. The
taxiway was extended to the north in the 1990's with an HMA surface. The pavement
should receive an HMA overlay to protect the pavement and extend the service life of
the pavement.
ITEM # 5 REPLACE V.A.S.I. WITH P.A.P.I. a RUNWAY 35
The existing VASI unit for Runway 35 should be evaluated for condition and reliability. If
justified, the unit should be replaced with new cable, conduit, and PAPI-4 unit.
ITEM # 6 DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS
Drainage improvements are needed in two areas of the airport.
The first area begins at a junction box and inlet at the northeast comer of the
intersection of Taxiway A and Taxiway B. Three culverts, parallel and perpendicular to
the parallel taxiway, flow into the junction box. The flow continues west, through a
culvert under the terminal parking apron, emptying into Little Sandy Creek at a failed
Page 3 of 5 March 2008

Paris
outFall structure. There are several sinkholes in the vicinity of the junction box, the
junction box is cracked and in poor condition, and there are severai shattered apron
slabs along the alignment of the culvert under the terminal apron pavement. The
sinkholes should be repaired, the junction bax slaou d bel ep acethe d, anddthe r-ulvert
outfall
joints should be resealed, and the shattered slabs s
structure should be repiaced.
The second area serves the hangars. Two ditch and cuivert systems serve the hangars,
ouftfall iIt,
one on each side of the primary hang ~e dches should be ega filling
and standing water is in the ditches. T
structures should be replaced.
There is an existing PCC valley gutter between hangars "C" and "I". As the valley gutter
causing
crosses the taxiway to hangars "I" and "AAA", the slope is excessively steep,
prop strikes. A slotted inlet should be installed in the existing PCC valley gutfer, and the
valley gutter should be raised and flattened, to reduce the dip in the valley gutter.
ITEM # 8 RECONSTRUCT PCC FUEL PAD
The existing concrete fuel pad, 100 feet by 100 feet, is in poor condition, with significant
spalling and cracking. The pavement will be demolished and replaced with new PCC
pavement.
ITEM # 9 FULL DEPTH PAVEMENT REPAIRS
Several areas,of HMA pavement, on the hangar access taxiway in the vicinity of
hangars AAA, K' , C and I, are failing. The failures are likely due to the intrusion of
subgrade moisture caused by poor drainage. A culvert should be installed, and the
pavement should be repaired by full depth patches.
ITEM # 10 REPLACE SIGN PANELS
The existing sign panels were installed in 1994 and are deteriorating from age. They will
be replaced. ,
