In May of 2003, the Rules Governing the Use of Mahlon Sweet Airport were amended to <br />include new regulations for self_service fueling facilities. Since adoption of this provision, the state Fire <br />Code has been amended to allow fuel tanks. to exceed the currently established maximum capacity of <br />12,000 gallons upon approval of the Fire Marshal. Eugene Airport would like to allow fuel tanks with a <br />maximum capacity of 15,000 gallons in order to provide the same competitive advantage that is available <br />to operators at other airports. In addition, the rules contained language specific to ASTM Standards for . <br />hangar construction which needed to be updated.

These changes will be posted at the airport and at City <br />hall for fifteen (15) days, in accordance with policy and procedures for Administrative Orders..
