All good comments and they are helpful. And certainly you must be able to comply with climb gradients when accepting a SID (based on all engines operating). I would just note that a SID is a DP, so to say that if the tower is "home" you will not be doing a DP is false. Also not true is ODP=Uncontrolled Field. That is incorrect. There are plenty of examples of runways served by both a SID and a ODP with a 24 hour control tower.

Reference the new Teterboro 6 off runway 1.
