Announcement: Aurora State Airport Temporary Rulemaking - Violations and Civil Penalties for Vehicle/Pedestrian Deviations

Announcement - Safety remains the highest priority for the Oregon Department of Aviation (ODAV). To assist ODAV's efforts ensuring a safe operating environment at the Aurora State Airport (UAO), new temporary rules have been adopted regarding violations for Vehicle and Pedestrian Deviations (V/PD). These violations may be subject to civil penalties.

A V/PD occurs when a person enters into or moves within the restricted Movement and Safety Area at UAO without clearance by Air Traffic Control. Since the Air Traffic Control Tower opened in 2015, UAO has experienced a high number of V/PDs. In recent years UAO has had the highest occurrence of V/PDs in the Northwest Mountain Region.
