and 1910.333, or applicable national, state or local regulations for additional information.
Irrigation Equipment near Airports and Crop Dusting Aircraft
• If any part of the irrigation machine comes within 3200 ft (975 m) of an airport runway, especially the ap-
proach (ends) of the runway, additional warning markers may be required. In the United States, CFR Title 14,
Chapter I, Subchapter E, Part 77 – Safe, Efficient Use, and Preservation of the Navigable Airspace describes
when marking is needed.
This document is available at: www.ecfr.gov
• Marking requirements vary depending on the location of the irrigation equipment relative to the runway, the
type of airport (Civil, Military, or Heliport) and other factors. Contact the local airport authority for guidance
and specific recommendations. In the United States, guidelines for marking structures near airports are
published by the Federal Aviation Administration in Advisory Circular AC 70/7460-1L – Obstruction Marking
and Lighting.
Available here: www.faa.gov/regulations_policies/advisory_circulars
• For irrigation machines near private or unregulated airfields, including farm-based airstrips, Valley strongly
recommends complying with the same standards and requirements as Civil airports as shown in Part 77.
• Regulations vary by country, contact your local aviation authority for guidance.
Overhang cables, including overhang back cables are a particular danger. In locations where low-flying air-
craft are likely, such as within 1,500 ft (457 m) of an end of an airport runway, or where crop dusting aircraft
are common, Valley recommends adding obstruction markers to overhang cables to improve their visibility.
For large overhangs (36 ft / 10.97 m Heavy Duty and longer), five 12 in (300 mm) or 20 in (500 mm), aviation
orange marker balls are sufficient. One near the rabbit ears, two in the middle of the back cables and two in
the middle of the highest overhang cables. Refer to Section 3.5 in AC70/7460-1 for additional details. Avia-
tion marker balls are available online and from a variety of aviation and airport safety equipment providers.
