Permit required for self-fueling.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. II)]
(1) 
Except for an FBO, no person shall transfer fuel into an aircraft unless the person has first obtained a self-fueling permit from the owner and the person complies with this chapter. A self-fueling permit authorizes the permittee to transfer fuel only into an aircraft owned by or leased exclusively to the permittee. Except for an FBO, no person shall transfer fuel into an aircraft not owned by or leased exclusively to that person, nor shall any person sell fuel to any other airport user. The airport will not recognize an organization formed by several aircraft owners for the purpose of self-fueling as a single aircraft owner or exclusive lessee for the purpose of this chapter.
(2) 
A self-fueling permit may be issued for self-fueling with fuel that is stored in an underground tank within the area designated. No other method of self-fueling is allowed.
(3) 
An application for a self-fueling permit shall be made by supplying the Commission such information as is prescribed by the Commission. The information shall include, but not necessarily be limited to:
(a) 
A description of the aircraft to be fueled;
(b) 
The employees who will operate the aircraft fuel servicing equipment and who will conduct the fueling operations;
(c) 
An emergency response plan;
(d) 
A fuel-handling personnel training program;
(e) 
The fuel tank system construction plans;
(f) 
A fuel tank system inspection and maintenance program; and
(g) 
Fuel transfer procedures.
(4) 
At a public meeting, the Commission shall review the application to determine whether the proposed self-fueling will comply with all applicable ordinances, permit and lease provisions and whether the required plans, programs and procedures are satisfactory. If the determination is favorable, the Commission shall issue the self-fueling permit to the permittee.
(5) 
When issued, a self-fueling permit shall be signed by the permittee and shall set forth, among other things, the permittee's agreement to meet appropriate insurance, indemnity and hold harmless requirements, and responsibility for damage to the airport. The permit shall require the permittee's consent to reasonable amendments or additions to permit requirements as circumstances may warrant.
(6) 
An applicant for a self-fueling permit shall pay a nonrefundable application fee as set from time to time by Common Council at the time of application. A permittee shall pay an annual self-fueling permit fee, which shall be as set by Common Council.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. II)]
(7) 
In conducting self-fueling operations, a permittee shall not vary materially from the application information unless a written request for a variation is submitted to and approved by the Commission. A material variation includes, but is not limited to, a different individual for fueling than what is stated in the application information. The Commission may allow temporary variations from the application information while a request for a variation is pending.
(8) 
A self-fueling permit is not assignable and not transferable. Unless it is revoked as allowed by this chapter, a self-fueling permit shall remain effective until the termination or expiration of the land lease that is required by this chapter.
(9) 
The tank system may be sold to another party, who must resubmit for application for a self-fueling permit. At no time can the existing system be used until the application is approved in accordance with the requirements of this chapter.
B. 
Fuel tank system.
(1) 
A self-fueling permit for the underground tank method shall be issued only if the applicant has executed a standard hangar land lease with the airport, which may be an existing lease or a new lease.
(2) 
At a minimum, the lease shall include, or be amended so as to include, the following provisions:
(a) 
Permission to site an underground fuel tank system in accordance with this chapter.
(b) 
A security deposit in the amount of $10,000 per tank, plus the amount of the self-insured retention (deductible) in the pollution liability and environmental impairment insurance that the lessee will be required to provide, with interest payable to the lessee, to be held by the airport as the result of any activity related to self-fueling engaged in by the permittee, including the permittee's failure to pay the fuel flowage fee required by this chapter. If the self-insured retention exceeds $5,000, it may be satisfied by an irrevocable letter of credit in favor of the Reedsburg Municipal Airport in a form acceptable to the airport.
(c) 
Insurance, indemnity and hold harmless requirements to protect the airport against liability and expense, including insurance for fuel vendors.
(d) 
Requirements for tank maintenance and inspection, lessee responsibility for damage related to fuel storage and self-fueling operations, and tank removal and site restoration at the end of the lease, upon permit expiration or revocation or upon expiration of the manufacturer's warranty period, whichever comes sooner. The security deposit will be returned upon termination of the lease and restoration of the site satisfactory to the Airport Commission.
(e) 
Recordkeeping, audit and inspection rights for the airport.
(f)

A. 
All hangars must be used for an aeronautical purpose. FAA considers the following uses aeronautical:
(1) 
Storage of active aircraft;
(2) 
Shelter for maintenance, repair or refurbishment of aircraft, but not the indefinite storage of nonoperational aircraft;
(3) 
Noncommercial construction of amateur-built or kit-built aircraft;
(4) 
Storage of aircraft handling equipment (e.g., tow bar, glider tow equipment, workbenches, tools and materials used to service aircraft); and
(5) 
Storage of materials related to an aeronautical activity (e.g., balloon and skydiving equipment, office equipment, teaching tools).
B. 
Provided the hangar is used primarily for an aeronautical purpose, an airport may permit nonaeronautical items stored in hangars, provided they do not interfere with the aeronautical use of the hangar.
C. 
While airports may develop more restrictive rules, FAA would not consider nonaeronautical storage to interfere with the aeronautical use of the hangar unless the items:
(1) 
Impede the movement of the aircraft in and out of the hangar;
(2) 
Displace the aeronautical contents of the hangar. A vehicle parked at the hangar while the vehicle owner is using the aircraft will not be considered to displace the aircraft;
(3) 
Impede access to other aeronautical contents of the hangar;
(4) 
Are used for the conduct of a nonaeronautical business or municipal agency function from the hangar, including storage of inventory); and
(5) 
Are stored in violation of airport rules and regulations, lease provisions, building codes or local ordinances.
D. 
If the airport has empty hangars with no demand for nautical use, the airport can rent hangar space for temporary nonaeronautical storage, provided:
(1) 
Nonaeronautical storage is preapproved by FAA;
(2) 
A fair market value commercial rental rate is charged; and
(3) 
The hangar reverts to aeronautical use as soon as there is demand.
A. 
Any person who violates any of the provisions of this chapter shall, upon conviction of such violation, be subject to a penalty, which shall be as follows:
(1) 
First offense penalty. Any person who shall violate any provision of this chapter shall, upon conviction thereof, forfeit not less than $5 nor more than $500, together with the costs of prosecution, and, in default of payment of such forfeiture and costs of prosecution, shall be imprisoned in the County Jail until such forfeiture and costs are paid, but not exceeding 90 days.

B. 
Each violation and each day a violation continues or occurs shall constitute a separate offense. Nothing in this chapter shall preclude the owner from maintaining any appropriate action to prevent or remove a violation of any provision of this chapter.
C. 
The provisions of this chapter shall be enforced by the Reedsburg Police Department, City Building Inspector, City Public Works Director and/or the City Airport Commission, depending on the provision violated.
