NECESSITY, FUNCTION, AND CONFORMITY: KRS 183.861 allows the Kentucky Airport Zoning Commission to regulate the use of land within and around all public use and military airports within Kentucky.

Section 1. The Advisory Circular No. AC 70/7460-1K, Obstruction Marking and Lighting, issued by the Federal Aviation Administration effective March 2000 shall govern the marking and lighting of structures which:
Section 2. A person who is issued a permit to alter or construct a structure shall mark or light the structure in accordance with the applicable standards of the Federal Aviation Advisory Circular, "Obstruction Marking and Lighting", unless the commission determines that the absence of the marking or lighting will not impair the safety of air navigation.
Section 3. Any structure that exceeds 200 feet above ground level shall be obstruction marked or lighted in accordance with the standards of the Federal Aviation Advisory Circular, "Obstruction Marking and Lighting", unless the commission determines the absence of the marking or lighting will not impair the safety of air navigation.
Section 4.
Section 5. If an existing, permitted and standing facility is abandoned, the permit holder shall continue to maintain obstruction marking or lighting which was required by the commission unless the facility is physically removed.
Section 6. During the construction or alteration of a structure, once any portion of the structure exceeds 200 feet above ground level, it shall be obstruction marked and lighted in accordance with the standards of the Federal Aviation Advisory Circular, "Obstruction Marking and Lighting", unless the commission determines the absence of this marking or lighting will not impair the safety of air navigation and so states when the permit is issued.
