== [[General Responsibilities]] ==
Handoffs shall be accomplished no later than 10nm from the ZJX/ZHU Boundary.<br>
It will not be necessary to coordinate inappropriate altitude for direction of flight on aircraft departing the Pensacola Terminal Area assigned an interim altitude of FL230.<br>
When using vERAM or VRC, mandatory radar handoffs suffice for coordination on aircraft climbing or descending to the altitude displayed in the data block. The altitude may be an interim altitude, or the altitude forwarded by the Controller Client. It will be the responsibility of the receiving controller to verbally impose any necessary restrictions for an aircraft for the purpose of separation, through the transferring controller. <br>
Transponder codes may be changed within 15nm of the mutual boundary without prior coordination provided both facilities are operating under EAS/ERAM. <br>
 
== [[Route Restrictions]] ==
Eastbound aircraft, from the ZHU Leeville (24) Sector, landing MCO, PIE, TPA, or DAB, must be cleared to remain north of aircraft landing MIA, FLL, FXE, or EYW.<br>
Eastbound aircraft, from the ZHU Leeville (24) Sector, landing MIA, FLL, FXE, or EYW, must be cleared to remain south of aircraft landing MCO, PIE, TPA, or DAB.<br>
Westbound aircraft filed over HRV must be cleared to remain north of aircraft filed over LEV.<br>
Westbound aircraft filed over LEV must be cleared to remain south of aircraft filed over HRV.<br>
