Introduction

The Local Single Sky ImPlementation documents (LSSIPs), as an integral part of the ESSIP/LSSIP mechanism, constitute a short/medium term implementation plan containing ECAC States’ actions to achieve the Implementation Objectives as set out by the ESSIP and to improve the performance of their national ATM System. The LSSIP document – Year 2014 describes the situation in the State at the end of December 2014.

The LSSIP documents are structured into 6 chapters to better differentiate the Stakeholder(s) accountable for the information contained in each of them:

Chapter 1 provides an overview of the ATM institutional arrangements within the State, the membership of the State in various international organizations, the organizational structure of the main ATM players - civil and military - and their responsibilities under the national legislation. In addition, an overview of the Airspace Organization and Classification, the ATC Units, the ATM systems operated by the main ANSP are also provided in this chapter.

Chapter 2 provides a comprehensive picture of the situation of Air Traffic, Capacity and ATFM Delay per each ACC in the State. It shows the evolution of Air Traffic and Delay in the last five years and the forecast for the next five years. It gives also the achieved performance in terms of delay during the summer season period and the planned projects assumed to offer the required capacity which will match the foreseen traffic increase and keep the delay at the agreed performance level;

Chapter 3 provides a set of recommendations extracted from the ESSIP Report which are relevant to the state/stakeholders concerned. The state reports how they have handled those recommendations and the actions taken during the year to address the concerns expressed by those recommendations;

Chapter 4 provides a set of the main ATM national projects which contribute directly to the implementation of the ATM MP OIs and/or Enablers and ESSIP related Objectives. The description, timescale, progress made and expected contribution to the ATM Key Performance Areas are provided by the states per each project included in this chapter;

Chapter 5 deals with the ATM Regional Coordination. It provides an overview of the FAB cooperation and Projects and also all other regional initiatives and Projects which are out of the FAB scope. The content of this chapter generally is developed and agreed in close cooperation between the states concerned;

Chapter 6 contains high-level information on progress and plans of each ESSIP Objective. The information for each ESSIP Objective is presented in boxes giving a summary of the progress and plans of implementation for each Stakeholder. The conventions used are presented at the beginning of the section.

Note: Chapter 6 is completed with a separate document called LSSIP Level 2. This document consists of a set of tables organised in line with the list of ESSIP Objectives. Each table contains all the actions planned by the four national stakeholders to achieve their respective Stakeholder Lines of Action (SLoAs) as established in the ESSIP.

Note: The information contained in Chapter 6 is deemed sufficient to satisfy State reporting requirements towards ICAO in relation to ASBU (Aviation System Block Upgrades) monitoring.

Chapter 5 - Regional Co-ordination

5.1 FAB Co-ordination

North European Functional Airspace Block - NEFAB NEFAB is a functional airspace block created by Estonia, Finland, Latvia and Norway. NEFAB has established a programme with a programme management office (PMO) with the objective of managing projects and initiatives among the ANSPs in the cooperation.

The ANSPs in NEFAB have developed a 5 year business plan, covering the period 2014 – 2018 and an annual plan for each year. The 5 year business plan describes the strategies for the period with key performance areas and strategic objectives. The annual plan transforms these strategies into activities planned for each year with defined deliverables and milestones. In April 2013 two key projects, Airspace 2015 and ATS Provision 2015, delivered the NEFAB Network Plan. The NEFAB Network Plan describes the operational requirements for the establishment of the airspace and service provision within NEFAB in 2015. 2015 is considered an intermediate step towards a performance scenario planned for 2020 and beyond.

The individual ANSP´s in the FAB-cooperation will implement the required operational changes and technical support to enable the concept described in the NEFAB Target Concept.

5.3 Regional cooperation

5.3.1 Regional Cooperation Initiatives

Noracon

NORACON, the NORth European and Austrian CONsortium, consists of nine members. Swedavia (Swedish airports) and eight European ANS providers: Austro Control (Austria), AVINOR (Norway), EANS (Estonia), Finavia (Finland), IAA (Ireland), ISAVIA (Iceland), LFV (Sweden) and Naviair (Denmark).

The purpose of NORACONs membership in the SESAR Joint Undertaking is to ensure impact from the partners in the development of the future European ATM business.

Borealis alliance

The members of Borealis are LFV (Sweden), Finavia (Finland), Avinor (Norway), ISAVIA (Iceland), Naviair (Denmark), EANS (Estonia), IAA (Ireland), LGS (Latvia) and NATS (UK).

The Alliance Framework Agreement (AFA) is a business co-operation, signed on the 20th of June 2012

The vision of Borealis is to be the leading ANSP Alliance that enables its Members to drive better performance for stakeholders through business collaboration. On the same day the former co-operation agreement known as NEAP (North European ANS Providers) was formally ended.

The objective of the alliance is to enable joint initiatives to improve flight efficiency and reduce environmental impact, delivered across the whole area in a move which will also streamline cost of services and operational/technical infrastructure.

Borealis intends to deliver value through business co-operation between the Members, as well to be collectively more influential by developing and expressing a joint position on common issues. These objectives will be achieved by developing and delivering a joint business plan.

The Agreement does not commit the Members to work towards creating a single combined FAB between their respective States sometime in the future, but it does not preclude such an outcome either.

Regulatory Co-operation

During the establishment of NEFAB there has been close cooperation between the 4 NEFAB NSAs, and this cooperation is now formalised by the NEFAB NSA Committee. There is also established cooperation between the other Nordic NSAs, by the 7-State NSA Cooperation. Meetings between the 4 NEFAB NSAs and representatives from NSA Iceland, Sweden and Denmark have been held, and cooperation are established on areas of common interest.

This cooperation will be continued.


Civil-Military Co-ordination

NEFAB has established the Civil-Military Committee (CMC) that consists of representatives from CAA and MAA. The function of the committee is to:

define areas of cooperation between the Contracting States within the scope of the NEFAB Agreement as regards military aviation;

enhance the use of airspace in NEFAB, taking account of military aviation needs, including military mission effectiveness;

provide for efficient and consistent application of the concept of ‘flexible use of airspace’ by the Contracting States;

provide for the development of arrangements for military training activities regardless of existing boundaries;

Several meetings have taken place, the committee has been chaired by MAA Finland and the co-operation has been fruitful.

Military-military Co-ordination

The Strategic Nordic Military ATM Board (SNAB) is established to elaborate, co-ordinate and promulgate the Nordic Military view on ATM matters. It will consider strategic objectives and focus on Nordic issues in relation to pan-European ATM initiatives including security aspects.

The SNAB is composed of senior military officers of the Nordic nations exercising responsibilities as national heads of the Military Air Traffic Management (or its equivalent).

The SNAB will not take decisions as it is a forum for co-ordination of issues. The SNAB may forward recommendations to the nations for staffing and final approval at national level.

5.3.2 Regional Projects

There is a close cooperation with LFV and Naviair in DK/SE-FAB concerning airspace development. In this cooperation the implementation of a seamless Free Route Airspace above FL 285 across the two FABs is prioritised in the short term with planned implementation towards the end of 2015. The activity is targeted to connect Free Route Airspace in the two FABs ensuring a continuous Free Route Airspace. The activity is organised as a project called North European Free Route Airspace – NEFRA. This project is not aimed at airspace developments inside the two airspace blocks.
