Can you please explain what you mean with ATM? I can only think of Automated Teller Machine?...

One thing about Contaminated runways is the fact that your V1 can be higher (closer to Vr)than when calculating wet RWY speeds, and indeed, no reduction.
Reason for this is the failure to attain adequate acceleration after an engine failure due to the increased drag of the contamination on the RWY.
