Caution: hydroplaning is possible at all speeds across the entire runway.

Runway 16/34 bearing strength: ST175, SBTT590, DDT870, TRT580.

The official weather observation point does not allow a clear, unobstructed view of the runway. The weather technician's view from north to southeast is partially obstructed by trees, buildings, and hangars, and the technician relies on a cooperative weather watch with the tower. High-intensity security lights hinder the ability to determine sky condition at night.

The civilian ramp is located northeast of the runway. General aviation ramp access is via taxiways A1, B, and C.

Runway 34 PAPI is located non-standard, on the right (east) side of the runway.

Caution: heavy rubber deposits are obscuring runway markings at the touchdown zones.

Runway condition code is not reported.

All runway surfaces are grooved.

Caution: the first 960 feet by 150 feet of runway 16 and the first 1,022 feet by 150 feet of runway 34 are grooved concrete. Runway 16/34 mid-rollout, 9,568 feet by 75 feet, is grooved concrete, with the area 37.5 feet inward from the runway side stripe and edge markings ungrooved. Friction is inadequate due to rubber buildup at the runway touchdown zones, and conditions worsen when the runway surface condition is wet.

Arresting gear: BAK-14 and BAK-12A(B), located 1,853 feet down the runway.

Arresting gear: BAK-14 and BAK-12A(B), located 1,677 feet down the runway, plus a MB100 hook system 60 feet into the overrun.

Arresting gear: BAK-12A(B) cables are raised by the BAK-14 device on request to the control tower. There is potential for hook skip at the BAK-12 cable system due to irregular edges and uneven depths within 200 feet of the arresting system.
