Interpretation

AIP IFR AD 2 EPWA 1-50 is updated to revise the criteria for when Low Visibility Procedures (LVP) begin and end at EPWA. LVP will now commence based on thresholds involving the touchdown zone RVR for the arrival runway, any RVR values, and the cloud ceiling, and will terminate when higher RVR and cloud ceiling thresholds are met along with an anticipated continuing improvement. This replaces the previous criteria that triggered LVP with lower cloud ceiling and any RVR falling below a specified value, and terminated with all RVR above that value and a lower cloud ceiling threshold.
