National ATM Context
Romania is an EU Member State since the 1st January 2007 and a NATO Member State since the 29th March
2004.
The Romanian airspace plays a significant role in the European transportation network of the South‐East. Is the
European region which acts as a bridge between North, South, East and West Europe. While air traffic has
been steadily increasing, forecasts predict further higher traffic demand driven by the economic growth in the
region, by the on‐going political changes (the EU political enlargement process, the emergence of new areas of
cooperation and commitment – ECAA, the European Common Aviation Area Multilateral Agreement, ratified
by Romania through Law no.328/22.11.2007 published in the Official Journal of Romania Part 1
no.48/22.01.2008) as well as by the traditional European tourism and business travellers.
The separation between the regulatory and the ATM service provider functions is effectively in place in
Romania since many years now.
The target operational concept established by the Government Decree no. 536/2000, aiming at further
reducing the number of en‐route ATC centres to a single one in Bucharest, has been finalised in 2012. As a
consequence, starting 18th October 2012, ROMATSA operates the Bucharest ACC as well as Bucharest APP
from the ATC centre located in Bucharest. Two more APP units are operated by ROMATSA in the Arad and
Constanta ATC centres.
In the context of the constant effort of the Romanian Air Traffic Services Administration (ROMATSA) for
achieving the aim to provide safest, most efficient and environmental friendly air navigation services in South‐
Eastern Europe, as from the 14th of November 2013 the Night Free Route Airspace (FRA) Concept has been
successfully implemented within Bucuresti FIR.
In accordance with the provisions of Order of the Minister of Transport no. 1547/2013, since 1st January 2014
the NSA responsibility for security matters from MoT was transferred to RCAA. Also, the full responsibilities for
the provision of Aeronautical Information Services were transferred from RCAA in the administration of
ROMATSA at the same date, through Government Decision 645/2013.
The implementation of cross‐border activities within Danube FAB was completed on 11th December 2014 and
is expected to further enhance optimization of the available route network structure. This will bring significant
benefits of fuel savings and emission reduction and will support achievement of the EU‐wide capacity and
environmental targets.
As a further step in FRA implementation, Night Free Route Airspace between Bucuresti CTA and Budapest FIR
(N‐FRAB) has been implemented starting from the 20th of August 2015. The aircraft operators are no longer
bound to follow the fixed route network, being now able to plan their flights freely between the entry and the
exit points of the airspace of the two countries, based on their needs.
Following the coordination process between ROMATSA, BULATSA and HUNGAROCONTROL, in order to extend
the Night FRA operations between Romania, Bulgaria and Hungary, SEEN‐FRA – (South East European Night
Free Route) was implemented on 30th of March 2017. The aircraft operators are able to file the route
containing as a minimum the SEEN FRA Entry point, at least one FRA Intermediate point in Bucharest FIR and
the SEEN FRA Exit point.

The Implementation of Ground‐based Safety Nets (ATC02.8) is late: ground systems have been upgraded to
support the DAIW and MSAW functions that are ready for operational use. Ground‐based safety tool systems
and associated procedures supporting the APM function are planned to be implemented in the future version
of the Romanian ATM System (ROMATSA ATM 2015+).
Objective ATC07.1 (Basic AMAN tools and procedures) is planned to be implemented in phase II of the
development of “ROMATSA ATM 2015+” project. The extension of the FOC of the objective ATC07.1 for 31st of
December 2019 allows for an implementation in due time of this objective.
Progress per SESAR Phase
The figure below shows the progress made so far in the implementation of the pre‐SESAR and PCP elements.
The percentage is calculated as an average of the relevant objectives as shown in Chapter 6.1. ‐ PCP objectives
are marked as such, the rest except AOP14, ATC02.9, ATC18 and NAV12 are considered pre‐SESAR. The four
aforementioned objectives are neither pre‐SESAR nor PCP and will be part of an overall future indicator
covering the SESAR 1 phase.
Note that two objectives – AOM19.1 and FCM05 – are considered as both part of the pre‐SESAR and PCP so
their progress contributes to the percentage of both phases.
The objectives declared ‘Achieved’ in previous editions (up to, and including, ESSIP Edition 2011‐2015) are also
taken into account for as long as they were linked to the Level 2 of the ATM Master Plan and implemented by
the State.

1.2.National Stakeholders
The main National Stakeholders involved in ATM in Romania are the following:
1. Ministry of Transport –Air Transport Directorate (ATD)
2. Civil Aviation Safety Investigation and Analysis Centre (CIAS)
3. Romanian Civil Aeronautical Authority (RCAA as NSA for all matters, including security)
4. Ministry of National Defence
- Air Force Staff
- National Military Command Centre
- Air Operations Centre
5. Romanian Air Traffic Services Administration (ROMATSA)
6. Romanian Airports
7. Airspace Users (National and International Air Carriers, other operators)
Their activities are detailed in the following subchapters and their relationships are shown in the diagram
below.
In accordance with the provisions of Order of the Minister of Transport no. 1547/2013, since 1st January 2014
the NSA responsible for security matters from MoT was transferred to RCAA. Also the AIS department from
RCAA, responsible for providing the IAIP except PIB, was transferred from RCAA to ROMATSA, through
Government Decision 645/2013, at the same date.
General Information
According to the basic civil aviation act (the Civil Air Code of Romania, issued in 1997 by Government
Ordinance and approved by Parliament Law no. 130/2000, further modified by Law 399/2005), the regulatory
responsibility for civil ATM (ATFM included) and ANS belongs to the state civil aeronautical authority, the
Ministry of Transport (subsequently referred to as ‘MoT’). Art. 10 of the same law establishes the joint
regulatory responsibility of MoT and MoD (the Ministry of National Defence) for all airspace organisation and
management (ASM) matters. It should be noted in this context that all GAT is serviced exclusively by civil ANS
Provider.
The different national entities having regulatory responsibilities in ATM are summarized in the table below.
The Romanian CAA is further detailed in the following sections.
MoT – ATD/RCAA
The Air Transport Directorate (DTA), manages the regulatory responsibilities, including drawing up high
level policies for air transport. Economic regulation is performed with participation of MoT’s Economic &
Administrative Directorate.
By Law No.55/2010 for approval and modification of the Government Ordinance No.26/2009, the
Department of Air Transport Investigation, part of the General Directorate of Control and Accident
Transport Investigation (GDoCATI) from MoT has been transformed into the Civil Aviation Safety
Investigation and Analysis Centre (CIAS), public institution with legal personality, subordinated to MoT.
CIAS is the independent body responsible for technical investigations of the civil aviation accidents and
serious incidents, having its own budget. CIAS has become functional with the promulgation of the
Government Decision No.1013/2010 which approved the Regulation of organization and functioning of
the CIAS. The main activity of CIAS is based on Regulation (EU) 996/2010 (for the Civil Aviation Safety
Investigation) and Directive 2003/42/EC (for civil aviation occurrence reporting).
According to Art. 5 of the Aviation Act, Government Decision 405/1993 as modified by Government Decision
645/2013 (establishing the Romanian Civil Aeronautical Authority (RCAA) as an autonomous, independent
from ATM service provision and self‐financed organisation) and to some other specific regulations
promulgated by MoT after 1998, most of MoT’s safety and security regulatory responsibilities were delegated
in the remit of the RCAA, such as drafting national regulations (up to the approval of the national specific
regulations, which is undertaken by MoT), issuing specific procedures and instructions to apply the national
regulations and the day‐to‐day safety supervisory tasks pertaining to ANS provided to GAT.
It should also be noted that economic regulation of ANS is retained by MoT. However, the amendment by Law
399/2005 of the Civil Air Code has introduced the supervisory function in the national regulatory framework,
as required by (EC) Regulation No. 549/2004 laying down the framework for the creation of the Single
European Sky. This enables that the RCAA is designated by MoT as the NSA for Romania for all specific tasks
laid down by SES legislation. Since 1st January 2014, the NSA responsible for security matters was transferred
from MoT to RCAA, through Order of the Minister of Transport no. 1547/2013. The Law 399/ 2005 amending
the Air Code of Romania entered into force since 1st of July 2006 and, starting with July 2006, RCAA has been
designated as NSA for Romania by MoT Order no. 1185/2006, published in the Official Journal of Romania Part
I no. 602/12.07.2006. According to this MoT Order, RCAA is designated to perform the roles and
responsibilities of a NSA in compliance with SES legislation. Starting August 2005 several organisational
changes have been implemented within the RCAA, including the full separation (at functional level) of RCAA’s
AIS Department (that used to provide aeronautical information services falling under the SARPs of ICAO Annex
15 ‐ the whole integrated package of aeronautical information except for the PIBs) from the RCAA
departments which fulfill the role and tasks of the NSA. Since 1st January 2014, the AIS department from RCAA,
responsible for providing the IAIP except PIB was transferred from RCAA to ROMATSA, through Government
Decision 645/2013. In Romania, as EU Member State, all EC Regulations are entirely binding and directly
applicable, including SES legislation which is in force for the time being.
The Romanian Civil Air Code (established by law) provides the general requirements concerning the safety
regulatory approval and oversight of all ATM systems and organisations, and for personnel licensing. The RCAA
covers a wide area of activities, including certification, such as:
Certification of the ANS service providers in compliance with the SES certification processes required by
the EC regulations. During 2006, RCAA developed an audit programme consistent with the ANSP
certification process within SES as required by the SES (EC) Regulations (No. 549‐552/2004) and the
Commission’s Regulation (EC) No. 2096/2005 laying down the Common Requirements for the provision of
air navigation services. At the end of 2006 RCAA issued for ROMATSA the Certificate no 01/ 2006 for air
navigation services provision, with revision number 1 applicable from 1 st January 2007. Further, revision
number 2 applicable from 1 st January 2010, and revision number 3 applicable from 5th of November 2011
were issued. A second certificate no. CN 07/2012, with Revision No. 1 applicable from 18th of February
ROMATSA
Services provided
Civil Air Navigation Services are provided by the Romanian Air Traffic Services Administration to all
GAT‐IFR flights. ROMATSA is an autonomous, self‐financing state owned enterprise under the authority of the
Ministry of Transport. The activities and tasks of ROMATSA are based on Government Decrees No.74 ‐ dated
1991, No. 731 ‐ dated 1993, No. 75 ‐ dated 2005, No.1090 ‐ dated 2006, No.1251 ‐ dated 2007 and No.741 ‐

dedicated operational positions located in ACC Bucuresti.
Air traffic services are provided within Bucuresti FIR by ACC Bucuresti, APP Bucuresti, APP Arad, APP Constanta
and the civil Aerodrome Control Towers. ROMATSA provides Aeronautical Information Services and
Meteorological Services for civil aviation. ROMATSA also provides the technical services for the Air Traffic
Services equipment at the airports and at the en‐route facilities.
Up to 31st of December 2013 the AIS Unit within RCAA used to provide aeronautical information services
falling under the SARPs of ICAO Annex 15 (the whole integrated package of aeronautical information except
for the PIBs that were provided by ROMATSA).
According to the Government Decision no. 645/2013 amending Government Decision no. 405/1993 for the
creation of the Romanian CAA, the full responsibilities for the provision of Aeronautical Information Services
were transferred in the administration of ROMATSA starting 1st of January 2014.
To be mentioned that ROMATSA is certified by the Romanian CAA/ NSA as Air Navigation Provider in
compliance with SES Regulations.
Alerting service is provided by all ROMATSA ATS units.
The navigation service (NAV), meteorological service (MET) and aeronautical
information service (AIS) below FL 245 is provided within the same volume of airspace
(Sector DF 2), by the ANSP of the host State, using the available resources.

Airports
General information
Romania’s airport network consists of 16 controlled civil aerodromes – published in AIP Romania, ensuring a
good coverage of all the territory.
From administrative point of view, 4 airports (Bucuresti Henri Coanda Intl. Airport, Bucuresti Baneasa‐Aurel
Vlaicu Intl. Airport, Timişoara – Traian Vuia Intl. Airport and Constanta – Mihail Kogalniceanu Intl. Airport) are
considered airports of national interest and are owned by the State, represented by MoT. The other 12
airports are of local interest and are owned by the local county authorities. All Romanian aerodromes are
placed under RCAA’s safety oversight.
All Romanian civil airports are certified in accordance with (EU) Regulation no.139/2014 requirements.
Airport(s) covered by the LSSIP
Referring to the List of Airports in the European ATM Master Plan Level 3 Implementation Plan Edition 2017 –
Annex 2, it is up to the individual State to decide which additional airports will be reported through LSSIP for
those Objectives.
The airport covered in this LSSIP edition is Bucharest “Henri Coanda“ International Airport (AIHCB).
Military Authorithies
The Ministry of National Defence (MoD) represents the State authority for the Air Forces and, in
co‐operation with the MoT, ensures the air traffic and the national airspace management at levels 1, 2 and 3.
Starting from July 2002 after approval of the new Civil / Military Regulation (Aeronautical Civil / Military
Romanian Regulation – Airspace Management / Flexible Use of Airspace), concerning the Airspace
Management (ASM) implementation of the Flexible Use of Airspace concept (FUA) in Romania, the Airspace
Management Council (Romanian acronym: CMSA) was set up, having the responsibility of policy establishment
and airspace management at national strategic level.
The Romanian Air Force Staff (ROU AF) represents the main regulatory body (National Military Aeronautical
Authority).The AOC (Air Operations Centre) is the military air traffic services provider for military OAT flights
and is responsible for the provision of separation between OAT and GAT flights. There is a continuous level 2
(pre‐tactical) coordination between Airspace Management Cell of AOC and ROMATSA regarding the air traffic
and the management of the national airspace.
Tactical coordination is provided through the Military Coordination Offices collocated within the civil ACC
facilities. The AOC includes the Air Defence (AD) and military ATC/ATM entities. The AOC provides ATS only for
the operational air traffic and coordinates the military SAR participation. Foreign military aircraft may operate
within the Romanian Airspace but not on a regular basis and only for training purposes, based upon bi‐lateral
agreements.
The military ATC units provide control only to the military OAT and coordination between military OAT and
GAT flights and do not provide air traffic control to the GAT flights.
The Civil/Military Coordination is organized at:
• Strategic Level – by the Airspace Management Council (CMSA);
• Pre‐Tactical Level – by the Airspace Management Cell;
• Tactical Level – through the Military Coordination Offices collocated with the civil ACC/APP units.
The Military Authorities in Romania consist in the Air Force Staff (ROU AF), which was designated as National
Military Aeronautical Authority. ROU AF reports to the Ministry of National Defence. Their regulatory, service
provision and user role in ATM are detailed below.

Schedule: 2018‐2022
Status: As a gateway to Europe, DANUBE FAB is in an ideal position to expand the influence of
SES and is open for accession of neighbouring countries. It is a long‐term strategy of
DANUBE FAB to extend its geographical scope. Therefore, DANUBE FAB has
commissioned a pre‐feasibility study for FAB enlargement with the aim to further
analyse DANUBE FAB’s regional environment and to investigate the compatibility of
neighboring countries with DANUBE FAB.
The study analysed DANUBE FAB’s regional environment and investigated the
compatibility of neighbouring third countries with DANUBE FAB.

The South‐East Europe Night Free Route Airspace within Bulgaria, Hungary, and
Romania (SEEN FRA) was implemented on 30 March 2017. The cross‐border Night FRA
project between Romania, Bulgaria and Hungary, covers in fact the second phase of FRA
implementation within the DANUBE FAB, namely Night FRA implementation at FAB
level.
The last step of FRA implementation in the DANUBE FAB airspace is to deploy a 24‐hour
cross‐border FRA by the end of 2019 which will be completed with the extension of
SEEN FRA to daytime operations (SEE FRA).
Description: Free Route Airspace (FRA) operations implementation in DANUBE FAB as a project
includes, inter alia, actions for the definition of a common operational concept, common
operating and training procedures and development of a safety case for FRA Operations
within DANUBE FAB, to give assurance that provision of ATS in DANUBE FAB, after the
implementation of FRA Operations, will remain at least as safe as today or will improve
safety.

Performance contribution
Safety: ++ The effect of FRA implementation on safety was determined according to
the DANUBE FAB FRA real time simulation and the related Safety Case. The
principal safety arguments revealed that FRA implementation in DANUBE
FAB will be acceptably safe
Environment: +++ The FRA implementation will contribute to the EU‐wide environment
target, and the optimised use of the European airspace. The extension of
Free Route operations outside the night period by 2019 will generate cost
savings for Airspace Users in terms of distance flown, time taken and fuel
consumed, and will reduce the environmental impact, thus enabling full
benefits and contribution to the EU‐wide environmental target.
Capacity: +++ The effect on capacity was determined during the DANUBE FAB FRA Real
Time Simulation in November 2015. Overall, although FRA implementation
led to increased complexity in some areas of the DANUBE FAB airspace,
the controller workload remains at acceptable levels, showing that FRA can
be achieved at no cost in capacity, complexity and controller workload.
It is a priority for DANUBE FAB to build on inter‐FAB cooperation in order to investigate
new projects or extend existing projects regionally with neighboring FABs.
Description: DANUBE FAB is committed to cooperating and coordinating with other FABs, particularly
with its neighboring FABs (BLUE MED FAB and FAB CE).

Schedule: The enhancement of the OLDI functionalities is an ongoing process
Status: Implementation of ground‐ground automated co‐ordination process is partly
completed: the current ATM systems at Bucharest ACC, Constanta APP and Arad APP
are capable of sending and receiving a complete set of basic OLDI messages (ABI, ACT,
REV, MAC, PAC, LAM) and message exchange is implemented with neighbouring ACCs.
The implementation of LOF and NAN messages is planned.
Electronic Dialogue as Automated Assistance to Controller during Transfer is partly
implemented, in operational use with Sofia and Budapest. Electronic Dialogue as
Automated Assistance to Controller during Coordination is implemented and not yet in
operational use. Operational use of Coordination dialogues is pending and depends on
the agreement with neighbouring ACCs and availability of the functions in their ATC
systems.
The operational ATM system is FMTP capable and FMTP is implemented between Arad,
Bucharest, Constanta systems and with adjacent countries (Belgrade, Budapest, Sofia,
Chisinau ATM systems). FMTP coordination with Ukraine is pending, subject to the
adjacent ANSP's similar capabilities.

5.1.FAB Co‐ordination
The DANUBE FAB is currently under phase 4 – FAB Implementation phase. The State Agreement on the
establishment of the DANUBE FAB between the Republic of Bulgaria and Romania was signed in December
2011 and was ratified by both governments in 2012. The Agreement entered into force on 16 November 2012,
thus ensuring the legal basis for the FAB ahead of the SES deadline.
DANUBE FAB project phases
The DANUBE FAB State Agreement provides the overarching legal framework for the governance of the FAB.
The core bodies are:
Governing Council: provides oversight and approval of key FAB documentation (annual plans,
safety policy, airspace policy, performance plans etc).
NSA Board: provides a formal coordination and an interface between the NSAs involved
in supervisory tasks at DANUBE FAB level.
ANSP Board: oversees implementation of the FAB at the ANSP level via the ANSP
agreement.
Airspace Policy Body: responsible for enhancing the joint civil‐military coordination process and
for the flexible use of airspace application within the cross‐border airspace.
DANUBE FAB ANSP Working Structure
The Administrative Cell supports the SAPSC and is guided in its work by a set of overarching documents
including the Project Management Plan (including the Communications Plan and Quality Management Plan) as
well as the DANUBE FAB State Agreement and the ANSP Cooperation Agreement.
DANUBE FAB Working Structure
5.1.2. Strategy & Planning
In order to meet its objective, DANUBE FAB has developed the Strategic Program, which provides a high level
overview of how and when the strategic objectives are to be achieved. The Strategic Objectives are focussed
on the Key Performance Areas of the RP2 Performance Plan and support elements, to ensure the continued
evolution of the DANUBE FAB.
5.1.1.1 Achievements for 2017
DANUBE FAB has progressed in several key areas during 2017. As well as retaining a core focus on airspace
projects within the FAB framework, DANUBE FAB has been looking further afield towards cooperation
initiatives with other FABs and State partners. An overview of some high priority initiatives is given below.
5.1.1.1.1 Free Route Airspace
Free Route concept implementation in the airspace of DANUBE FAB is divided into three major phases:
Phase I – Implementation of night Free Route operations within national boundaries (implemented in
November 2013 ‐ 6 months ahead of schedule);
Phase II – Implementation of night Free Route operations at DANUBE FAB level (implemented in
March 2017);
Phase III – Extension to full 24‐hour Free Routes operations at DANUBE FAB level (planned for 2019).
Major airspace changes in 2015, implemented by DANUBE FAB partners to improve traffic flows, have
necessitated a re‐evaluation of the timescales and of the geographical scope for Phase II of the project. Thus,
South East Europe Night Free Route Airspace within Bulgaria, Hungary, and Romania (SEEN FRA) project has
been implemented on 30 March 2017.
The SEEN FRA concept was built on the previous night FRA implementation in the airspaces of Budapest,
București and Sofia CTAs. It represents a further step in optimizing flight operations in a large volume of
airspace and provides operational, environmental and cost benefits.
5.2.Regional cooperation
Regional cooperation initiatives
GateOne Initiative
The DANUBE FAB ANSPs are signing parties of the GateOne cooperation agreement on the creation of the
regional ANSP platform of Central and Eastern Europe which was signed by the designated 13 ANSPs covering
3 existing FABs (Baltic FAB, DANUBE FAB and FAB CE) and 2 non‐EU FIRs (Belgrade and Skopje), with the aim to
promote the efficiency of European ATM through an enhanced cooperation among the participating service
providers to ensure a more powerful and coordinated role of the countries of the region in the European
decision‐making processes.
Discussions on a common Gate One project, namely an Impact Assessment of Regional FRA Implementation in
the Gate One Airspace (GO FRA), were initiated towards the end of 2015 and, subsequently, an agreement
between Gate One members was reached in June 2016 to initiate the GO FRA Study. Therefore, GO partners
applied with GO FRA Study for CEF 2017 Call.
Following that, in summer 2017 GO partners were informed that INEA funding was only obtained by EU
members, excluding 3 out of 13 GO partners from funding. The only possible mitigation was to exclude those 3
partners from their obligation to cover the costs, but knowing, that the costs for individual EU ANSP after such
exclusion shall not be higher as originally planned ones. Moreover, the study could not be concluded without
complete geographical scope.
