shore facility engineering from project inception to completion. To support ATC
electronic facilities construction, NAVFAC works closely with Space and Naval
Warfare Systems Center Charleston (SSCC) to ensure that. .

Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR).
Naval aviation facility requirements are driven by a multitude of Navy and Marine
Corps aircraft, weapons systems, airborne electronics systems and related
ground-based aeronautical equipment, training and material support. NAVAIR
works with the respective program entities to identify unique aviation and
operational support facilities requirements. As the Navy Lead Field Activity (LFA)
for National Airspace System Modernization (NAS

Maintenance Authority.
SPAWAR exercises technical control through regional and district offices, whose
responsibilities include installation and maintenance engineering of electronic
equipment that is beyond the capacity of station forces. Regional and district
offices represent SPAWAR for electronic engineering control during facility
design development. SSCC represents NAVAIR for electronic engineering
control and development of ATC electronic facilities design.

Facility Requirements Document (FRD) and Facility
Requirements Supplement (FRS).
The Air Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) Facility Requirements Document (FRD)
provides construction requirements and recommendations in support of Military
Construction (MILCON) Projects and Renovation/Repair Projects. The FRD
provides amplifying and current information not contained in the various ATC
related construction references. Information pertaining to site-specific details of
construction and design are covered in the Facility Requirements Supplement
(FRS). Stated requirements are in support of the Air Traffic Control (ATC)
electronic equipment to be installed once the construction has been completed,
and are restricted to those items in direct support of ATC operations.
Requirements not pertaining to ATC systems support must be obtained from
station personnel. Stated recommendations are in support of ATC and Ground
Electronics Maintenance Division (GEMD) or Air Traffic Control Maintenance
Branch (ATCMB) operations.

Designer.
The designer (planner, engineer, and architect) enters design development at the
pre-design programming stage, after the operational requirements have been
established. The designer plans the facility to satisfy the operational
requirements set forth in this UFC and in the to FRD/FRS, IDSEP, and BEAP,
and prepares project drawings and specifications under the control of NAVFAC
and the guidance of SSCC. While maintaining close liaison with the NAVFAC
