Crane · 2026
OCERS HQ
Santa Ana, CA · near John Wayne/Orange County (5.8 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
"Our company will assist with construction at this location using a temporary mobile crane. Our temporary mobile crane tip height will not exceed 199' AGL. We are a subcontractor responsible for erection of the structural steel only. Once we have completed our portion of the work and vacated the site other trades will continue construction. The highest erected elevation of any steel member will be 60' AGL or less (rooftop screen wall). The General Contractor is responsible for any FAA filing requirements for the structure itself. Our mobile crane will operate at multiple locations throughout the job site and will stay within the boundary defined by the submitted coordinates. Please advise regarding any special requirements noting that the Orange County Global Medical Center Heliport is directly SE of the job site."
