Runway Protection Zones

This data depicts the boundaries of the Airport Runway Protection Zones (RPZ) of the Salinas Municipal Airport in the City of Salinas, Monterey County, California. The FAA describes RPZs in the following way: Runway protection zones are a trapezoidal area “off the end of the runway end that serves to enhance the protection of people and property on the ground” in the event an aircraft lands or crashes beyond the runway end. Runway Protection Zones underlie a portion of the approach closest to the airport." See FAA documentation for a full description of RPZs. See the Salinas Municipal General Plan and planning documents for a description of application to intersected properties.
