Crane · 2026
505 Elm Ave
Imperial Beach, CA · near Imperial Beach Nolf (Ream Fld) (1.0 mi)
What this outcome means
The FAA studied the proposal and concluded it would not be a hazard to air navigation. A no-hazard determination is not permanent — it carries an expiration date, and if the structure is not built by then the case has to be re-filed.
The proposal, in the filer's words
"Crane support to remove and replace HVAC units on existing building. Units not to exceed current height. Crane to be stationary and setup in the same location each time we visit this site. Requesting for 18 months as we will frequent this site for ongoing projects."
