Meridian D-1 Gateway Aviation Center

Meridian D-1 Gateway Aviation Center

A proposal by Meridian Park D-1, LLC to develop the Meridian D-1 Gateway Aviation Center Project (Proposed Project), including an Air Cargo Center Component and Off- Site Component located on approximately 46 acres. The Air Cargo Center Component would include the development of a gateway air freight cargo center, including taxilane/taxiway and parking improvements, within an approximately 34-acre site within March Inland Port Airport under the jurisdiction of March Joint Powers Authority (JPA). The gateway air freight cargo center includes the construction of an approximately 180,800-square-foot cargo building with 9 grade-level loading doors, 31 truck dock positions, and 37 trailer storage positions. The cargo building would contain approximately 9,000 square feet of office space. The Air Cargo Center Component would also include work in the public right-of-way within Heacock Street on the eastern boundary of the project site. The Off-Site Component would be constructed on approximately 12 acres and would include taxiway and taxilane construction, widening, and realignment; storm-drain extensions; and a perimeter patrol road with security fencing within March Air Reserve Base (ARB). Vehicular access to the project site would occur at a new signalized entrance onto Heacock Street, expanding the existing access roadway currently serving the facilities south of the project site. The Off-Site Component would include construction on land owned by March ARB. Development occurring on March ARB would require easements with the Department of the Air Force within five work areas. The Proposed Project would also require a zoning designation and a plot plan approval. Once constructed, the Proposed Project is anticipated to average 17 flights per day, 6 days per week (non-peak). During the peak season (i.e., late November through late December), the Proposed Project is anticipated to average 22 flights per day, 6 days per week. Aircraft operations would occur between 7:00 a.m. and 11:00 p.m. (approximately 5% of the proposed aircraft operations would occur between 10:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m.).
