vehicles will clear all alleyway center lines and lead in lines into each gate and
Hardstand.

➢ Snow removal / plowing will commence upon 1 inch of snow accumulation above the
ground surface, or as otherwise directed by Terminal One Management.

➢ Post snowfall event: The Ramp snow removal provider will continue plowing and
removing snow, ensuring proper and complete clearing prior to handover.

➢ Due to the diversity of winter storms, material(s) such as sand and Sodium Formate will
be utilized to assist in melting and will be applied in all areas as necessary. The sand
utilized conforms to FAA specification.

➢ Flight scheduling will be strategically coordinated by Terminal One Management,


allowing gates to be vacant, in an effort to ensure efficient snow removal prior to any
flight activity.

It may be necessary to coordinate with the Air Carrier maintenance representatives to tow
aircraft off the gates to facilitate efficient plowing. This will be coordinated by Terminal One

5
Management and the Ground Handler. The Ground Handler will ensure qualified Push-back
personnel are available on site. Close coordination is essential for a safe operation.
Additionally, for safe aircraft handling and for the safety of personnel, it could become
necessary to stagger / hold inbound aircraft on taxiway or in alleyways to facilitate efficient
clearing of snow from the gate pad before permitting inbound aircraft access to the Gate.

➢ Primary snow melting area for Terminal One will be at the hard stand located on the
western part of the property, via the Terminal One in-ground Snow Melter.

➢ A secondary snow melting area will be staged between Gates 09 & 10, when needed, via
a Portable Snow Melter.

➢ It is the responsibility of the Ground Handler to inspect all ramp areas and properly store
wheel chocks, ladders, tow bars and other G.S.E as necessary.

➢ Ramp plowing will follow the directions described in Exhibit A.


• Snow plowed from East side Gates 4, 6, 8, 10, will be pushed and piled between
Gates 9 & 10 for melting at the secondary melting area, via the portable snow
melter.
• Snow from west side Gates 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9 will be pushed and piled to the hard
stand for melting at the primary snow melting area, via the Terminal One in-
ground Snow Melter.
• Vehicles equipped with snow plows will clean the inner roadways, the inbound
and outbound bag room approaches. The snow will be pushed into the taxiway for
plowing to the hard stand.

Snow clearance / plowing will not take place within 50 feet of any contours of any aircraft.

Public walking areas, pick-up and drop-off areas will be maintained and cleared of snow and ice
by Airway Maintenance.

Aircraft De-icing

➢ The following procedures are established to ensure safe and efficient movement
of aircraft in and out of Terminal One during De-icing events.

➢ The Primary de-icing location for Terminal One Carriers will be the Hangar 12
site (Remote De-icing Facility "RDF").

➢ Utilization of the Remote De-icing Facility will minimize ramp / taxiway


congestion, delays, Gate holds and improve the traffic flow rate for Terminal One
and the overall airport surface movement.

➢ All aircraft type will primarily be de-iced at the Remote De-icing Facility.

➢ In the event of an emergency while at the Remote De-icing Facility that requires
passenger deplanement, Terminal One will have a stair-truck and bussing readily
available.

➢ In the event of a runway change, runway closure or any circumstance that might
inhibit movement or restrict aircraft from accessing the Remote de-icing Facility,
then Terminal One Ramp area will be the fallback or secondary de-icing location.

➢ De-icing and Ground handling services at the Remote De-icing Facility will be
provided by Terminal One’s Ground Handler (Dnata).

➢ Terminal One will primarily use three De-icing positions (1,2 and3) located on
the West side of the Remote De-Icing Facility. The three De-icing positions (4,5
and 6) located on the East side of the Remote De-Icing Facility will primarily be
used to de-ice other carriers that do not operate at Terminal One (Ref. Exhibit C).

➢ Due to current COVID-19 related flight volume decreases, de-icing staffing will
be set to minimal operationally sustainable levels.

8
General guidelines:
➢ No aircraft will be dispatched to the RDF without coordination / communication between
Terminal One Ramp Control Tower (RCT) and RDF Control.
➢ De-Icing Position assignments will be made using the Aerobahn system for queuing and
departure sequencing (directly linked to JFK Slot Allocation). This function will be the
responsibility of Terminal One Ramp Control. De-Icing Queuing priority will be given to
live passenger flights over Ferry or Cargo Only flights.
➢ Air Carriers requiring deicing must notify Terminal One Ramp Control 1 hour prior to
departure.
• Air Carriers must specify the area of the aircraft requiring application, and the
Type of fluid application.
• Notification should be provided to the Terminal One De-icing Coordinator at
Ext. 1746 or via VHF frequency at 130.275
➢ Terminal One Ramp Control will communicate with the Carrier when their aircraft is
ready to be handled at the RDF.
➢ For those carriers whose Operating Procedures require a post-deicing inspection by staff
other than the Ground Handler, it will be their responsibility to ensure that a designated
representative is present at the RDF prior to the aircraft being dispatched from Terminal
One.
➢ Upon arrival at RDF site, the designated airline representative will be required to
establish direct contact with Terminal One on site MOD or RDF Control or Terminal One
representative.
The designated airline representative will perform the post de-icing inspection and sign
off on de-icing glycol usage slips.

It is the responsibility of the Air Carrier to ensure there will be an authorized representative immediately
available to sign the deicing tickets. Failure to have an agent available to sign the de-icing ticket(s) will
not be accepted as justification for disputing the charges.

The Air Carrier representative will verify together with the Aircraft De-icing provider the Fluid gauge is
set to zero (0) prior to dispensing fluid.
Upon completion of the de-icing process, the Aircraft De-icing provider will present a hand written de-
icing ticket indicating the fluid dispensed.
The ticket must be signed by the designated Air Carrier representative.

Failure to have the designated staff at the RDF prior to dispatching the aircraft from Terminal One
will result in loss of the aircraft's assigned sequence position for de-icing.

Restrictions:

➢ All Aircraft types are now permitted to enter/exit Taxiways “PB”, and “Q5”. “Q5”, formally
named “QC”, was widened, thus eliminating the previous turn radius restrictions

9
➢ Aircraft de-icing operation will be performed with engines off.
➢ RDF Control will not approve engine starts until confirmation is received from the
Aircraft de-icing coordinator that deicing operations are complete and deicing equipment
is safely cleared from the aircraft.

In the event of an INOP APU:


• The Ground Handler will have a portable GPU standing by at the specific de-icing spot.
• The GPU will be connected when aircraft is on blocks at the specific de-icing spot.
• Upon confirmation the aircraft is receiving power, the engines will be shut down
• The de-icing process will commence only when the engines are shut down
• Upon completion of the de-icing process (including post de-icing walk around inspection) the
Ground Handler will connect an Air Starter unit and standard engine start up procedures will
apply.

➢ The de-icing bucket aerial device will not be operated if wind gusts are at or above
40 MPH (35 knots).

Communication:
➢ RDF Control freq. 122.775
➢ The Remote De-icing Facility call sign will be “RDF Control”; Cockpit crew
must maintain contact with RDF Control while transiting to and at the facility.
➢ Communication transfer points are at:
• Exit Terminal One- TWY "MA" and "N"
• Entrance- TWY "Q5"
• Exit- TWY “Q5” and “PB”
➢ Hold points are at:
• Queue- TWY Q “Q6” entry
• RDF De-icing Spots

Procedure:
Transit to RDF for de-icing
➢ When ready for pushback, Terminal One RCT will inform Cockpit Crew de-icing will be
done at the RDF.
➢ Simultaneously Terminal One RCT will inform the Carriers’ station operations the RDF
is ready to accept the aircraft.
➢ Standard pushback, disconnect and engine start-up procedures will apply.
➢ When cleared for taxi, the cockpit crew will communicate to Ground Control de-icing
will be done at Remote de-icing Facility located at Hangar 12.

10
➢ Ground Control will provide taxi instructions to the RDF. During taxi to the RDF,
cockpit crew must continue to monitor Ground Control frequency and contact RDF
Control at 122.775 when approaching for permission to enter and the specific entry point.

In the event that the flight is unable to immediately enter / access the RDF, the cockpit crew
will be instructed by RDF Control to coordinate with JFK Ground Control for holding
instructions.

Entry into the RDF / on site:


➢ On initial contact to RDF Control, Cockpit crew must provide the following information:
• Call sign
• Aircraft registration
• Aircraft type
➢ After receiving clearance from RDF Control to enter the specific entry point, the cockpit
crew must follow the escort vehicle or the marshal’s instructions to the assigned de-icing
position or Spot number.

Aircraft can anticipate entry and guidance to specified spot on its own power

➢ De-Icing position assignments will be determined by the Aerobahn sequencing and


queuing system, so as to maintain full transparency. The RDF has three (3) de-icing spots
assigned for Terminal One usage (Ref. Exhibit C).

➢ Once the aircraft is stopped at the assigned de-icing position, the cockpit crew will be instructed
by the designated airline representative or maintenance provider to configure the aircraft for de-
icing.

➢ The cockpit crew must then advise RDF Control that the aircraft is configured and reconfirm the
type of de-icing required. Upon completion of the de-icing process and post inspection, the
designated airline representative will be required to sign off on all Glycol usage slip(s). Failure to
sign the Glycol usage slip(s) may result in the aircraft NOT being released by RDF for Taxi.

➢ The designated airline representative or maintenance provider will advise cockpit crew when de-
icing and anti-icing is completed, and indicate the following
• De-icing is complete
• “Aircraft is clean, the post de-icing / anti-icing check is complete”
• Final Fluid type, concentration and start time of final fluid application
Above can also be dictated by Carrier specific communication guidelines

➢ Upon cockpit crew acceptance of the aircraft:


• RDF Control will advise cockpit crew “equipment is clear, advise when ready for taxi”.
• When ready for taxi, RDF Control will advise cockpit crew to hold short of the specific
exit point.

11
Exiting the RDF

Aircraft assigned to De-icing Position 1 can anticipate a “PB” exit under its own power;
Aircraft assigned to De-icing Position 2 can anticipate a “Q5” exit under its own power;
Aircraft assigned to De-icing Position 3 can anticipate either a “Q5” or “PB” exit under its
own power

Flights must have a departure slot allocated prior to being released from RDF.

➢ At the specified exit point, RDF Control will hand over the cockpit crew to JFK Ground Control
for taxi clearance to the assigned RWY.
➢ All aircraft can anticipate holding short and exiting on own power.

In the event it becomes necessary for an aircraft to return to the ramp after de-icing and exiting the
RDF, the Cockpit Crew or Carrier operations MUST contact Terminal One Tower Manager on Duty
for coordination.

Aircraft may be redirected to Terminal One Ramp for De-icing.

Terminal One Ramp area de-icing:

In the event of a runway change, runway closure or any circumstance that might inhibit
movement or restrict aircraft from accessing the Remote de-icing Facility, then Terminal One
Ramp may be designated as the fallback or secondary de-icing location at the discretion of the
Terminal One Tower Manager on duty.
De-icing at Terminal One is done within Taxiway "MA" and "N" alleyways.

Procedure:
➢ When ready for pushback, Terminal One RCT will inform Cockpit Crew de-icing will be done at
Terminal One specifying the de-icing spot.
➢ Simultaneously Terminal One RCT will inform the Carrier's station operations the de-icing will
be done on Terminal One ramp area.
➢ Standard pushback, disconnect and engine start-up procedures will apply

12
Ramp Control / Coordination of Flight Activity:
➢ Terminal One Ramp Control will coordinate all aircraft traffic on taxiway “MA” and “N”
until the Aircraft is handed over to JFK Ground Control
➢ The de-icing units will not leave the aircraft until cleared by an air carrier representative.

Taxiway “MA” and “N”:


Taxiway “MA” is a shared taxiway by Terminal One and Delta Airlines.
➢ Aircraft will be pushed-back onto taxiway centerline for de-icing, Exhibit B.
➢ Aircraft movement (arriving traffic, push back sequence etc.) will be coordinated through
Terminal One Ramp Control Tower, in cooperation with Delta ACC staff.

Taxiway “N” is exclusive to Terminal One traffic.


➢ Push-back clearance for de-icing will be coordinated by Terminal One Ramp Control,
and will be based on:
• Time of Pushback request
• Slot Allocation
• Air Carrier specific de-icing location
• Operational requirements

Deicing fluid application on the Gate:


➢ The application of de-icing fluid on the gate will be at the discretion of Terminal One
Management.
➢ Deicing on the gate may only be considered when the adjacent gate(s) is unoccupied by
an aircraft.
➢ In the event that de-icing fluid is applied to an aircraft while on the gate pad, it will be
necessary to perform a thorough cleaning of the gate pad, prior to further handling of any
aircraft. This could potentially result in gate holds, but is necessary for safe aircraft
handling and the safety of personnel.

Terminal One hardstand will be utilized for deicing, based on operational requirements and
feasibility.

13
INOP APU (A380 specific):
➢ In the event an INOP APU; the aircraft engine(s) will be started at the Gate per Terminal One
standard operating procedure. (SOP.OPS.2006.003 – Engine Start at Gate).
• The Terminal One ground handler will provide the necessary portable ground power
unit(s) (GPU) specific to the A380 requirements, at the disconnect point; Two (2)
Ground Power Units, capable of 180 KVA each.
• The GPU will be connected to the aircraft upon completion of pushback; based on
standard GPU connecting procedures for the A380.
• Upon confirmation that the aircraft is receiving power, engines will be shutdown.
• The deicing process will commence when the aircraft engines are shutdown.
• When the deicing process is completed, and all deicing equipment is clear of the aircraft;
the ground handler will connect an Air Start unit specific to A380 requirements, and
standard engine startup will apply.

Surface Movement Management Program (Slot Allocation):


➢ The JFK Departure Allocation will be coordinated and operated through the
AEROBAHN network and will be used during all snow events. Based on the anticipated
forecasts and slot allocations imposed by the PANYNJ or the FAA, Terminal One, in
coordination with the Air Carrier, will determine when de-icing begins.

RON Aircraft:
➢ At the request of the Air Carrier, Type IV fluid will be applied on an aircraft that will
remain overnight (RON).

➢ The application will be done when operationally feasible.

Refer to: Deicing fluid application at the Gate

Aircraft Cabin Heat:


➢ Terminal One jet bridges are equipped with PC Air units capable of providing heat. The
ground handling agent has two (2) mobile units, which will be used in the event of a jet
bridge heater unit failure.

Ground Equipment:
➢ The ground handling agent will check all equipment prior to use and liaison with
maintenance shop to ensure serviceability of equipment at the start of each shift. The
ground handling agent will park all motorized equipment in an enclosed heated area
where possible.

➢ Ramp staff will inspect all ramp areas and properly store chocks, ladders, tow-bars and
other equipment as necessary in order to smooth the progress of snow plowing.

14
FACILITY
Terminal Heat:
➢ The current ground handler (Dnata) and Building Maintenance will ensure that all Jet
Bridge and roll-up doors are fully functional and secured at all times.

➢ All airline staff and Terminal One building maintenance and building cleaners are
reminded to be mindful of the terminal doors in the lobby to ensure they are closed and
not in the open positions. This is in an effort to prevent exposed pipes from freezing and
blowing snow from entering the building through open doorways that will create the
potential for causing slip and fall hazards. Any doors not functioning should be reported
to a Terminal One Manager on Duty at Ext: 1707 or Alternate Ext: 1728.

➢ The Ground Handler will ensure that all bag room doors are kept closed when not in use.
This is to conserve heat and minimize the risk of water pipes freezing and for the comfort
of personnel.

Stranded Passengers
Terminal One Management is committed to ensuring that stranded passengers are
supplied with information and basic amenities that will help address their unique needs
and make their waiting period more comfortable. Airline is required to notify Terminal
One Manager On Duty of any stranded passengers. If necessary, Terminal One will
make arrangements to distribute and setup cots, blankets and pillows. Terminal One
Management will directly communicate with food concessions to ensure they are
prepared to meet customer demand. It is the airlines’ responsibility to have their
representative present and available to provide passenger ground transportation instructions
and information concerning aircraft departures and arrivals.
