SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Eastern Service Area (ESA) Air Traffic
Safety Action Program (ATSAP) Event Review Committee (ERC) has received
reports from Tallahassee Air Traffic Control Tower (TLH) indicating the
Tallahassee Commercial Airport (68J) is reported as closed via Notice
to Air Missions (NOTAM), however, is still depicted on Visual Flight
Rules (VFR) sectional charts. TLH controllers have had several
instances where pilots have mistakenly tried to land at 68J airport due
to it still being depicted on VFR sectional charts.
The 68J airport has been closed via NOTAM since 2011 when the owner
of 68J was forced to close the runway (RWY) due to a large pavement
failure. Airport Master Record states RWY 16/34 has surface cracking
and shows Airport Status as closed indefinitely. The airport has
continued to receive licensing under the presumption that progress was
being made to repair the runway. It has been reported that no progress
has been made to repair the runway pavement. A certified letter was
sent to airport owner requesting corrective actions, with no response
or comments received after 30 days.
(Authority: 1 CFR 22.2.)
