CTLR COMPLAINS THAT PUBLISHED APCH PLATES ARE NOT UP TO DATE AT THE SECTOR.

Narrative

ON FEB/XX/93 ZOB REORGANIZED TO 7 AREAS OF SPECIALIZATION. MY AREA (KEYSTONE) TOOK CTL OF THE MARION AND CARLETON SECTORS ON THIS DATE. THE CARLETON SECTOR HAS AIRSPACE TO THE GND WITH 3 ARPTS WITH PUBLISHED APCHS UNDER ITS JURISDICTION. THE ARPTS ARE SKY; PCW; YPT. IN ADDITION; AFTER XA00 LCL MARION TAKES CTL OF MFD APCH AIRSPACE WITH AN ADDITIONAL 3 ARPTS. ON FEB/XX/93 I BECAME AWARE OF THE FACT THAT THE APCH PLATES AT BOTH SECTORS ARE OUT OF DATE. AFTER COMPLAINING; THE PLATES WILL BE UPDATED; HOWEVER; THE LENGTH OF TIME AND CHANGES THAT TAKE PLACE PRESENT SAFETY HAZARDS. THE OLD CHARTS WERE DATED YPT NOV/16/89; PCW FEB/4/87; SKY - NO DATE. ALL THE ABOVE APCHS HAVE UNDERGONE CHANGES SINCE THESE PLATES WERE POSTED. I.E.; MSA IS LOWER AT PCW. A HANDWRITTEN CHANGE ON THE PLATE REFLECTS RWY CHANGE FROM AUG/26 TO SEP/27. THIS IS TYPICAL OF FAA NOT KEEPING UP WITH ADMINISTRATIVE DUTIES AND PROVIDING CURRENT INFO TO CTLRS. IF FARS REQUIRE PLTS TO UPDATE; WHY NOT THE FAA. THE ISSUE IS; IF I HAVE AN ACFT WITH AN INFLT EMER LNDG AT ANY OF THESE ARPTS; I NEED THE MOST CURRENT INFO AT MY FINGERTIPS. DURING THESE TIMES OF ADMINISTRATIVE CUTBACKS AND BUDGET PROBS; THE FAA HAS MORE THAN ENOUGH ADMINISTRATIVE PEOPLE TO KEEP UP THIS INFO.
