Our review finds that six structures with the tallest one having a maximum height of 654 ft AMSL (Above Mean Sea Level) at this location conform to the Miami -Dade County Height Zoning Ordinance. However, our preliminary analysis indicates that this structure may impact the following Terminal .Instrument Procedures (TERPS) surfaces: For Building 41 West: • Runway 261, LNAV Approach: exceeds by 364 ft • Runway 261, LOC Final Approach: exceeds by 265.2 ft. • Runway 26R LNAV Final Approach: exceeds by 384 fl For Building #3 West: • Runway 26L LNAV Final Approach: exceeds by 404 ft. • Runway 26R LNAV Final Approach: exceeds by 412 ft The FAA will need to determine the effect of this impact (if any) upon the developer's submittal of form 7460-1 to the FAA. This height determination is an estimate issued on a preliminary or advisory basis. Before proceeding with design, any proposed construction at this location exceeding 200 ft will be required to file with the FAA by using form 7460-..1 ',Notice of Proposed Construction Alteration for .Determination of Known Hazards'. In addition, any construction cranes for this project exceeding 200 ft must be filed by the construction contractor using the same form. Thus, for any structure or crane at this location exceeding 200 ft, FAA form 7460-1 must be filed. 'file form is available through this office or through the FAA web site: httpsoeaaa...faa.gov This form should be mailed to, Federal Aviation Administration, Air Traffic Airspace Branch - ASW-520, 2601 Meacham Blvd, Ft.

Please note that the airspace review process is governed by two different regulations: the Miami -Dade County Height Zoning Ordinances and Federal Regulation Title 14 Part 77. The FAA has its own airspace evaluation requirements, and issues airspace determinations for structures and cranes based on the particular facts then presented before the FAA. The County's Department of Planning and Zoning (P&Z) or the applicable municipal building official determines whether the County's zoning requirements and height limitations are met, and FAA determines whether FAA building, marking and height requirements are met. This determination is based, in part, on the description provided to us by you, which includes specific building locations and heights. Any changes in building locations/layouts or heights will void this determination. Any future construction or alteration, including an increase to heights requires separate notice to the FAA and the Miami -Dade Aviation Department. Should you have any questions in obtaining and/or filling out FAA form 7460-1 or if 1 can be of any fur -h —'2tance, please feel free to contact me at 305-876-8080.
