At all times when a restriction is imposed, the least restrictive alternative shall be required. 4.11.2. Prohibited Conduct. Any person may engage in speech-related activities on public areas of Airport property so long as the following restrictions are obeyed: 4.11.2.1.

The Rules are as follows: 4.11.7.1 Schedule: The requesting person(s) must agree to a set schedule provided by the Executive Director. Schedules will be limited to certain days and hours of the week with a select number of groups allowed each day. 4.11.7.2 Designated Areas: the safety and congestion concerns are best addressed by limiting the locations for free speech activity. Therefore, designated areas have been selected for this purpose and shall be assigned prior to issuance of a Permit. The Designated Areas will be available to individuals intending to engage in free speech activity at all times that the Airport is open to the public; provided that, if necessary to preserve the safety of the Airport or the free flow of pedestrian traffic in the Airport, the Executive Director may suspend the exercise of permitted activities if he declares an emergency on account of weather, schedule interruptions, extremely heavy traffic movements, security or safety concerns. In such an instance, all persons engaged in permitted activities shall immediately cease such activities for the duration of such emergency. The Executive Director shall allow the resumption of all permitted activities suspended under this Policy upon abatement of the conditions or circumstances giving rise to the emergency. Temporary restriction or suspension of permitted activities under this subsection shall not constitute the denial or revocation of a permit. The Designated areas are set forth on Exhibit A. 4.11.7.3 Display Materials: the use of tables, counters, or stands is prohibited inside the Terminal building without written authorization of the Executive Director. Only one display will be allowed per organization. 4.11.7.4 Supervision and Distance: The supervising party must remain within 3 feet of their display at all times.

Background:On June 21, 2016, the Augusta Commission approved a Georgia Power easement to replace the 8,000-volt underground distribution line from a power line on Lock & Dam Road to a transformer located approximately 1,000 feet north of the approach end of Runway 17 at the Augusta Regional Airport. Power from this transformer is used by the FAA to operate Runway 17 Medium Approach Lighting System with Rails (MALSR) and Runway 35 Localizer Antenna. The current 8,000-volt line is over twenty-five (25) years old and has failed in the recent past. When Georgia Power reviewed the easement prior to beginning the work of installing the new line, it was determined that certain portions of the legal description were required to be modified to ensure there is adequate space for the installation of the transformer. Georgia Power has also provided new exhibits for the easement.
