   1. North Operations
      1. Issue DIVYD SID for all departures
      2. Issue GEYSR ODP for all departures unable to accept a SID.
4. Standard Departure Frequencies

      • Salt Lake City Center 133.25
   2. When appropriate, issue the following frequencies to VFR aircraft requiring radar services after departure:
      • Salt Lake City Center 133.25
5. VFR Routing
   1. Not Applicable.

Ground

1. Frequency
   1. Jackson Ground: 124.550
2. Airspace
   1. Ground: All movement areas except active runways.
3. Procedures
   1. Not applicable.
4. Departures
   1. All aircraft requiring pushback onto the movement area will contact ground prior to pushback and start-up. Aircraft at JAC may require pushback on A (Alpha) taxiway.
   2. All aircraft will contact ground with position and ATIS prior to being issued taxi instructions.
5. Arrivals
   1. All aircraft will remain on ground frequency until off the movement area.

Local

1. Frequency
   1. Jackson Tower: 118.075
2. Airspace
   1. Local: Runway 19/1 and airspace as depicted on sector file.
3. Procedures
   1. Runway operations
      1. Use runway 19 (South) during calm wind operations.
      2. Use runway 1 (North) when the tailwind component exceeds 5 knots.
   2. LAHSO
      1. Not authorized.
   3. Tower Use of Radar:
      1. None
4. Departures
   1. Departure Notification / Releases
      1. A “Release Request” (.RR) is required to be sent to the appropriate Departure Controller for all departing aircraft in accordance with the General Control Directive.
5. Arrivals
   1. IFR Arrivals
      1. N/A
      2. Circling procedures not authorized east of Runway 1/19
   2. Missed Approach / Go Around
      1. Send A Missed Notification (.MA) for the aircraft executing an unplanned Missed Approach / Go Around to the appropriate TRACON sector that will be receiving the aircraft for re-sequencing.
      2. VFR aircraft, and/or IFR Category I / II aircraft conducting a Visual approach and executing a Go-Around must be instructed to remain in the local pattern, if capable of doing so.
      3. The following is considered Primary Climb-Out procedure and does not require any special coordination with Approach Control or Strip marking other than the basic Missed Notification. Aircraft must not turn prior to the departure end of the runway. Comm-Change to the appropriate departure sector must be completed no later than 1 mile off the departure end of the runway.
      4. Climb out procedure:
         • South Flow: Heading 190, Maintain 15,000.
         • North Flow: Heading 010, Maintain 15,000.
      5. VFR traffic join local pattern.
6. VFR Operations
   1. VFR Departures
      1. Depart on-course.
      2. Handoff to departure control as soon as clear of any possible conflicts.
         • Salt Lake City Center 133.25
   2. VFR Arrivals
      1. Direct to airport.
   3. VFR Flight Following
      1. Ensure all aircraft requiring flight following have the appropriate scratchpad entry prior to handoff to departure.
