(C) Provide documentation that PE's studies included the number of days within the past ten years that the cloud ceiling was 1,000 ft'. or less, and the visibility in the Pottstown-Limerick area (as a measure of accumulated moisture 'in the ait) was 4 miles; 3\ miles'; 3 miles.- , | |||
(D) Provide existing studies that indicate no potential for carburetor ice formation or other adverse eff-ects on aircraft from accumulation of 35 million gallons per day of moisture from the Limerick tow-ers under stagnant naturally saturated conditions present 2 3, 4, days or more in a row from re bru-ary throug,h April and from September through Nov-ember. | |||
