ADR.OPS.A.065 Reporting of the runway surface condition Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/2148 (a) The aerodrome operator shall report the runway surface condition over each third of the runway using a runway condition report (RCR). The report shall include a runway condition code (RWYCC) using numbers 0 to 6, the contaminant coverage and depth, and a description using the following terms: (1) COMPACTED SNOW; (2) DRY; (3) DRY SNOW; (4) DRY SNOW ON TOP OF COMPACTED SNOW; (5) DRY SNOW ON TOP OF ICE; (6) FROST; (7) ICE; (8) SLIPPERY WET; (9) SLUSH; (10) SPECIALLY PREPARED WINTER RUNWAY; (11) STANDING WATER; (12) WATER ON TOP OF COMPACTED SNOW; (13) WET; (14) WET ICE; (15) WET SNOW; (16) WET SNOW ON TOP OF COMPACTED SNOW; (17) WET SNOW ON TOP OF ICE; (18) CHEMICALLY TREATED; (19) LOOSE SAND. (b) Reporting shall commence when a significant change in runway surface condition occurs due to water, snow, slush, ice or frost. (c) Reporting of the runway surface condition shall continue to reflect significant changes until the runway is no longer contaminated. When that situation occurs, the aerodrome operator shall issue an RCR that states that the runway is wet or dry as appropriate. (d) Friction measurements shall not be reported. (e) When a paved runway or portion thereof is slippery wet, the aerodrome operator shall make such information available to the relevant aerodrome users. That shall be done by originating a NOTAM and shall describe the location of the affected portion.
