This is a busy controlled field for the Bloomington area. Runway 06 has nearby trees and a road off the departure end. Runway 24 has a fence near the threshold and a road near the approach path. Runway 06/24 is also restricted for some passenger-carrying operations. When the tower is closed, lighting is activated by CTAF.
