Airfield Asphalt Pavement Improvements

The project entails asphalt pavement rehabilitation at three designated areas of John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana, California, along with targeted crack repairs across the airfield. Work includes the removal and replacement or overlay of degraded pavement surfaces, application of seal coats where necessary, and full restoration of all pavement markings disturbed during construction. One work zone contains lead-containing paint, which must be safely abated and disposed of in strict compliance with environmental regulations prior to any pavement demolition or rehabilitation activities. The project qualifies for categorical exemptions under California’s CEQA, specifically Class 1 for existing facilities and Class 30 for minor hazardous substance mitigation, indicating it is considered low-impact and exempt from detailed environmental review. All work will take place on-site at the airport, with inspection and acceptance managed by the Orange County Airport Planning & Development division. No contract value, pricing details, or formal contract type have been disclosed; the documentation reflects a forecast announcement rather than a solicitation or awarded contract. The primary point of contact is August McNab, Land Use Planning Manager, with additional project oversight provided by engineering and administrative staff within the airport’s planning department. No federal acquisition regulation clauses, special contract requirements, evaluation factors, payment instructions, or solicitation procedures are included in the materials, suggesting this is an environmental notice accompanying a public works forecast rather than a formal procurement document. Attachments referenced include a Notice of Exemption, a CDFW No Effect Determination, and a cash receipt copy, all filed with the Orange County Clerk-Recorder’s Office. The project is administered by a local public agency, with no small business set-asides, socioeconomic certifications, or federal contractor requirements indicated.
