The FAA's remarks as written in the airport file, spelled out
- Conditional: all operations are conducted in VFR weather conditions; the landing area is limited to private use; please note that you have not identified proposed ingress/egress routes however the runway will underlie the arriving approach path for aircraft flying into ulm runway 33. Aircraft will be descending from 2600 to the lowest mda/DA of 1420 and where the missed approach turns southeast bound climbing to 2600. We suggest that you develop a memo of understanding for operations at your airport wtih airport at new ulm; a clear 20:1 approach slope be established. If there are obstructions that penetrate the 20:1 approach surface, they should be removed or lowered. If the penetrating obstructions cannot be removed or lowered, we recommend that the thlds be displaced and appropriately marked so as to provide a clear 20:1 approach slope surface to each runway end; the centerline of an airport runway should have a lateral separation of at least 60 feet from roads and other objects for aircraft wilth approach speeds less than 50 knots and 120 feet for airplanes with approach speeds of 50 knots or greater.
