D.3.1. Applicability:
D.3.1.1. Use of Criteria. The criteria in this manual apply to Navy and Marine Corps aviation
facilities located in the United States, its territories, trusts, and possessions. Where a Navy or
Marine Corps aviation facility is a tenant on a civil airport, use these criteria to the extent
practicable; otherwise, FAA criteria apply. Where a Navy or Marine Corps aviation facility is host
to a civilian airport, these criteria will apply. Apply these standards to the extent practical at
overseas locations where the Navy and Marine Corps have vested base rights. While the criteria
in this manual are not intended for use in a theater-of-operations situation, they may be used as a
guideline where prolonged use is anticipated and no other standard has been designated.
D.3.1.2. Criteria at Existing Facilities. The criteria will be used for planning new aviation facilities
and new airfield pavements at existing aviation facilities (exception: primary surface width for
Class B runway). Existing aviation facilities have been developed using previous standards which
may not conform to the criteria herein. Safety clearances at existing aviation facilities need not be
upgraded solely for the purpose of conforming to this criteria. However, at existing aviation
