This report develops revised establishment criteria for the Runway End Identification Light (REIL) system based on benefit/cost analysis. Three prerequisites must be met before a runway can be considered for REIL establishment: (1) Each potential candidate must not be equipped with or programmed for an approach light system; (2) Each potential candidate runway must be lighted and approved for night operations; (3) Each potential candidate runway must have a runway end identification problem resulting from such characteristics as overriding or false lights under its approach path. Runways meeting these requirements will qualify for a REIL system as follows: (1) A runway shall be a candidate when it records approximately 4900 air carrier, 1,200 air taxi (including commuter) or 7300 general aviation landings or an appropriate combination of these; (2) Runways not satisfying the numerical criteria shall be eligible for REIL when safety requirements dictate.
