Section 2. Aircraft Movement on the Main Terminal Ramp

A. Aircraft movement on the Main Terminal Ramp is uncontrolled.

B. Pushbacks: Aircraft pushbacks are at the operator’s discretion. All aircraft

pushbacks are to be straight back unless otherwise approved by Airport

Operations. The aircraft nose gear should be positioned 10 feet past the ramp

trench drains before disconnecting from the pushback unit. The pushback crew

shall include at least one wing walker during the time the aircraft is being pushed

back into position.

When an aircraft begins a pushback, it shall be done in a timely manner and

executed so as not to interfere with a pushback already underway from an

adjacent gate and/or an aircraft transitioning the area in the vicinity of the

pushback.

If any deviation from a normal pushback is needed (e.g. the aircraft tail needs to

be positioned relative to the wind), Airport Operations must be advised, and the

pushback approved prior it occurring.

Aircraft push crews do not have the authority to:

1) Delay the pushback once underway.

2) Begin a pushback if it will conflict with a pushback that is already underway at

an adjacent gate. This includes not only the physical location of the aircraft

relative to each other, but the potential jet blast area created as well.

3) Provide the flight crew a direction of aircraft turn.

4) Push the aircraft in a manner of anticipated direction of taxi.

C. Aircraft movement:

Outbound: Subsequent to the aircraft pushback, the aircraft shall proceed, at

their discretion, and without undo delay, to a transition point. This should be done

so as to not create a conflict with an aircraft in the vicinity and already in motion.

Once at the transition point, further clearance from Ground Control must be

obtained for continued taxi. The outbound transition points are as follows:

Outbound: TWY C2, C3, V1, V2, V5, V6, D2, D3

Rules & Regulations | 7.30.20 | Revision:

Inbound: When an aircraft is told to proceed to an assigned gate it should do so

in a timely manner from the transition point assigned by Ground Control. As the

aircraft approaches the assigned gate, it should hold at the vehicle roadway in a

position not blocking inbound or outbound aircraft, and wait for further

instruction/signal from their ground crew. The normal inbound transition points

are as follows:

Inbound: TWY C1, C4, V3, V4, D1, W

D. Pilots do not have the authority to communicate to one another on the Ground

Control frequency for purposes of movement on the ramp.

E. Power backs and power outs are not permitted without prior authorization by ACAA

provisions of these Regulations.

SECTION 5 - FEES DUE THE AUTHORITY

5.1 Payment of Privilege Fees - Each Operator shall pay all applicable Privilege Fees prior to the

issuance of Permit Decals/Transponders, and/or Occasional Use Permits. If an Operator had been issued

a Permit previously, all fees incurred during that permit period must be paid in full prior to the issuance

of Permit Decal(s)/Transponder(s) or Occasional Use Permit(s). Payment of Privilege Fees will be

accepted in the form of a company check or money order; mailed to Allegheny County Airport

Authority, Post Office Box 642623, Pittsburgh, PA 15264-2623. In the event an Operator ceases to

conduct business at the Airport said Operator forfeits all Privilege Fees as they are not refundable.

5.2 Payment of Trip Fees and Dwell Time Fees - All Operators are required to pay trip fees for ground

transportation from the Commercial Arrivals Curb. Regular Operators must pay Trip Fees and Dwell Time

Fees monthly based on the vehicle activity as monitored by the AVI System. For each Regular Use

Operator paying Trip Fees and Dwell Time Fees, the Authority shall issue (at the Operator’s cost and

expense) one Transponder for the purpose of collecting revenue control information for each

Commercial Vehicle having a Permit Decal. Each Transponder shall be affixed to the Commercial Vehicle

for which it was issued in the manner prescribed by the Authority. All Transponders issued to an Operator

shall be returned to the Authority on demand. If an Operator loses or destroys a Transponder, or if a

Transponder is stolen, the Transponder shall be replaced at the Operator’s cost and expense. Regular

the assigned Transponder. Holders of Occasional Use Permits must pay Trip Fees based on the

Occasional Use Permits requested and utilized by each Operator.

5.3 Evading Fees - Regular Use Operators are prohibited from committing or attempting to commit

any act that causes the Authority's revenue control system to fail to detect the presence of such

Operator’s Commercial Vehicle on the Airport Roadway. Failure to have the required Transponder on

the proper Commercial Vehicle to which the transponder is assigned shall constitute a violation of these

Regulations.

5.4 Replacement of Transponder - A Regular Use Operator may obtain a replacement Transponder

by taking the Commercial Vehicle to Grant Oliver and advising their staff of the reason for the

damaged, or stolen Transponder, however, that replacement will be made at the Operator’s cost and

expense. If the Commercial Vehicle was issued a windshield Transponder and the windshield needs to

be replaced, the old Transponder is not to be re-adhered to the new windshield as it is not transferable

and will not work properly, if at all.

5.5 Replacement of Permit Decal – A Regular Use Operator may obtain a replacement Permit Decal

by completing and returning Exhibit I to the Terminal Operations Office, for issuance of same. In

instances where it is not possible to return the previously assigned Permit Decal, the Operator will be

the average of AVI activity within the recent twelve-month period and the amount recorded via said

transponder.

be the 20

of each month. In the event payment has not been received by the due date the

Operator may incur a suspension of Operator’s airport privileges until such time as the Authority

receives full remittance via the lockbox address listed above.

5.75 Dwell Time Fees at $1.00 per minute are assessed to Hotels, Off-Airport Parking,

thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Failure to remit payment within thirty (30) days to Allegheny

County Airport Authority, Post Office Box 642623, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15264-2623 will result in

Rules & Regulations | 7.30.20 | Revision:

the suspension of Operator’s airport privileges until such time as the Authority receives full

remittance.

5.8.2 No Occasional Use Permits will be issued to an Operator whose account is in arrears or

who otherwise owes any debt, fee, fine or judgment to the Authority.

5.8.3 The assessment of fees of holders of Occasional Use permits shall be based on the vehicle

classification/passenger capacity in accordance with the Fee Schedule. The fee assessed shall be based

upon the type of vehicle and the passenger capacity, regardless of the actual number of passengers being

transported. Occasional Use Permit fees shall be assessed each time a vehicle accesses the Commercial

Roadway System transporting passengers from the Airport. Holders of Occasional Use Permits will

receive a monthly invoice listing all trip activity for the prior month.

5.9 Security Deposit – Any Operator applying, but not previously Permitted by the Authority shall

remit a Security Deposit in the amount of $250.00. The Security Deposit amounts are subject to review

by the Authority and an adjustment may be required to be remitted by the Operator. The Security

Deposit will be accepted in the form of a Company Check or Money Order. The checks will be cashed

and deposited into a holding account. This amount will reside within the account without the Authority

drawing from it for the monthly trip fees, transponder fees, etc. If the Permit is terminated for any

reason during the Permit Year, the Security Deposit will be used to the extent fees are due and the

balance, if any, returned. Should the Permit remain in effect, the Operator’s monies will be retained in

the account for the upcoming Permit Year.

5.10 Credit of Dwell Time/Trip Fees

5.10.1 Should a Regular Use Operator exceed the allotted time on the Commercial Arrivals Curb

or in the Holding Lot and wish to have the dwell time fee credited to their account, the Operator

within three (3) business days of occurrence containing the date, time, license plate number and

flight information for the person(s) being met including the reason for trip cancellation.

5.10.3 If the request for a credit of dwell time fees is due to a vehicle breakdown on the

Commercial Arrivals Curb or in the Holding Lot, be advised that it is the

responsibility of the Operator to extricate that vehicle in a timely manner. The

Authority would consider no longer than one (1) hour at the curb and two (2)

Rules & Regulations | 7.30.20 | Revision:

hours in the Hold Lot a reasonable amount of time to have that vehicle undergo

maintenance or be towed from the Airport. Additional backup information (tow

at the discretion of the appropriate Authority staff member(s).

5. 11 Suspension of Operating Privileges for Non-Payment of Debt, Fee, Fine or Judgment –

Non-Payment by the due date evidenced in the Notice of Violation (NOV) or Authority invoice of any

Debt, Fee, Fine or Judgment owed by Operator to the Authority may result in the suspension or

10.1 Emergency Regulations / Irregular Operations - From time to time it may be necessary for the

Authority to adopt Emergency Regulations and discretionary security requirements without the usual

thirty (30) days of advanced notice, and the Authority reserves the right to do so. It is the responsibility

of every Driver

and Permit Holder to stay in contact with the Authority to stay abreast of and follow any Emergency

Regulations and discretionary security requirements. Lack of notice will not be deemed an excuse for

failure to follow Emergency Regulations or discretionary security requirements.

10.2 Emergency Contact Information – All Drivers and Operators are required to provide to the

Authority a current mobile telephone number and/or email address and to update that information

immediately in the event it changes. Failure to do so will be deemed a waiver of any right to notice of

Emergency Regulations, discretionary security requirements, or other information provided by the

Authority to all Drivers and/or Permit holders. The Authority will presume that such notice has been

received by a Driver or Permit holder if the Authority faxes or emails such notice to that Driver or Permit

Holder’s last known fax number or email address.
