Acquire Snow Removal Equipment
Project Descript ion
Total Es ti mated Cost
$270 ,000
Estimated Completion Date
October 1, 2021
The McCall Municipal Airport has identified the need to purchase primary snow removal equipment
using program funds due to the aging fleet of the current traditional snow removal equipment that has
succeeded the expected operational use/life cycle. The new equipment will consist of a front end
loader mounted snow blower unit capable of at least 3000 tons per hour.
Des cribe need or ju stifi cat ion for the project
The current snow blower unit is a 28 year old Rolba 3,000 tph self-propelled unit with carrier vehicle.
The Rolba has proven unreliable in the past few years with 2 breakdowns last winter, one breakdown
caused the Rolba to be out of service for 3 weeks during the height of winter.
A snow blower is a necessity for McCall as the airport receives an average of 134.2 inches of snow
annually (more than 11 feet) with snowfalls of 32 .1 and 35 .5 inches in December and January,
respectively.
When the Rolba blower is out of service, we must close the airport or restrict operations. Last winter
McCall had to turn away several business jets due to snow berms that could not be removed in a
timely manner.
A copy of Friedman Memorial Airport's Bid Tab for a similar project is attached in the back.
Copies of: AIP 3-16-0023-022 Snow Equipment Evaluation, McCall Monthly Climate Summary
(Snowfall), and FAA's Snow Removal Calculations are available, if desired.
Is th is pro j ec t listed on the airport approved Airport Layout Plan and Capita l Improvement Program?
Yes.
