Based on a total system approach, the Aviation System Capital Investment Plan (CIP) relates user community needs to technical opportunities, human factors, and operational considerations. The systematic implementation of the projects defined in this CIP will result in improved safety and efficiency, while accommodating spiraling demands at constrained cost. It supports a more complex system and creates a foundation for continued evolution that uses modern technologies and capabilities. The CIP also recognizes that continuing upgrades and enhancements are necessary to meet evolving national airspace system (NAS) user needs. It includes the following: Original NAS Plan (Chapter 2)--Preservation of the original NAS Plan projects; Growth (Chapter 3)--Projects that expand, relocate, or consolidate existing facilities/capabilities in response to changing demand on the system. Each potential metroplex control facility (MCF) is identified in this chapter; Infrastructure Replenishment (Chapter 4)--Projects identified since the original NAS Plan that refurbish structures, replace obsolete equipment, or relocate facilities to maintain service, improve effectiveness, and/or reduce cost; Supportability (Chapter 5)--Capital improvement projects that support logistics, provide spares, train personnel, and manage the human resource aspect of modernizing the NAS; and New Capabilities (Chapter 6)--Projects identified since the original NAS Plan which, if implemented, are expected to add significant new capabilities to the system. The new TRACON Automation System project is contained in this chapter.
