What this outcome means
The FAA sent the case back to the filer rather than issuing a determination. This is the most common non-clean outcome and usually means something has to change or be supplied before the study can finish — not that the project was refused.
The proposal, in the filer's words
"REPLACE EXISTING GLIDESLOPE SHELTER AND FOUNDATION WITH NEW SHELTER AND FOUNDATION"

Screening a structure of your own?
Check Part 77 and the tower's line of sight before you file
