  2. Coordinate approval requests through CLE for all non-standard departure routes and/or altitudes
  3. Assign all IFR departures one of the following:

    • SID Departure
    • Standard Heading 350
    • Alternate heading assigned by CLE IAW the DVA (300-050)

    If departing runway 24L and not on a SID, must issue the current departure procedure (ODP) 4. Assign departure aircraft 2,000ft and advise them to expect requested altitude ten (10) minutes after departure unless directed otherwise by CLE.
