a. Radar separation shall be applied to all RNAV aircraft operating on a random (impromptu) route at or below FL 450.
b. Radar separation may be applied between:
1. Radar identified aircraft.
2. An aircraft taking off and another radar identified aircraft when the aircraft taking off will be radar-identified within 1 mile of the runway end.
3. A radar-identified aircraft and one not radar-identified when either is cleared to climb/descend through the altitude of the other provided:
(a) The performance of the radar system is adequate and, as a minimum, primary radar targets or ASR-9/Full Digital Radar Primary Symbol targets are being displayed on the display being used within the airspace within which radar separation is being applied, and
(b) Flight data on the aircraft not radar-identified indicate it is a type which can be expected to give adequate primary/ASR-9/Full Digital Radar Primary Symbol return in the area where separation is applied, and
(c) The airspace within which radar separation is applied is not less than the following number of miles from the edge of the radar display:
(1) When less than 40 miles from the antenna- 6 miles;
(2) When 40 miles or more from the antenna- 10 miles;
(3) Narrowband radar operations- 10 miles and
(d) Radar separation is maintained between the radar-identified aircraft and all observed primary, ASR-9/ Full Digital Radar Primary Symbol, and secondary radar targets until nonradar separation is established from the aircraft not radar identified, and
(e) When the aircraft involved are on the same relative heading, the radar-identified aircraft is vectored a sufficient distance from the route of the aircraft not radar identified to assure the targets are not superimposed prior to issuing the clearance to climb/descend.
