5. Federal Aviation Administration 5 A management Approach to Runway Safety 03/05/2009 ATO Changes ATO Realignment Operational Errors and deviations as we know them today will no longer exists Establishment of Mandatory Occurrence Reports (MOR) New FAA ORDERs: -7210.632- ATO Occurrence Reporting (ATOOR) -7210.633- ATO Quality Assurance Program (QAP) -7210.634- ATO Quality Control (QC) -7200.20- Voluntary Safety Reporting Programs (VSRP)

6. Federal Aviation Administration 6 A management Approach to Runway Safety 03/05/2009 7210.56 Air Traffic Quality Assurance 4-1-10. SURFACE INCIDENTS AND RUNWAY INCURSIONS a.For significant surface incidents and runway incursions (e.g., involving air carriers, air taxis, or prominent person), in addition to routine reporting procedures, notify the ATD, …and the ROC by telephone. b. Notify airport management of all surface incidents, regardless of type, by the close of business the next administrative day. If previously reported incidents are determined to be runway incursions, inform the airport operator of the status change.

7. Federal Aviation Administration 7 A management Approach to Runway Safety 03/05/2009 Approach Hold Issues Approach hold guidance, procedures, requirements are not standardized. Collaboration between Flight Standards, Airports, ATO and industry is required to resolve issues related to the application of Approach Hold. The lack of standardization across lines of business within the FAA introduces an element of risk. There is no standard for reporting events related to approach hold, so the level of risk is unknown.

9. Federal Aviation Administration 9 A management Approach to Runway Safety 03/05/2009 Initiative Runway Safety is: Coordinating with concerned stakeholders and customers such as AOPA, ALPA and NATCA. Establish a data collection process to allow for the determination and mitigation of risk through the RCAT process. Leading a collaborative effort to standardize and align policy and guidance.

10. Federal Aviation Administration 10 A management Approach to Runway Safety 03/05/2009 Changes to 7110.65 Handbook Para 3-7-1b b. Do not issue unconditional instructions when authorizing movement on a runway/taxiway for the purpose of airfield checks or other airport operations. Instructions must ensure positive control with specific instructions to proceed on a runway or movement area, and as necessary, hold short instructions. Para 3-7-2e e. Airports where taxi distance between runway centerlines is less than 1,000 feet, multiple runway crossings may be issued with a single clearance. The air traffic manager must submit a request for approval.

12. Federal Aviation Administration 12 A management Approach to Runway Safety 03/05/2009 Continued… ATC will not: use the term “full length” when the runway length available for departures has been temporarily shortened. On permanently shortened runways, do not use the term “full length” until the Airport/Facility Directory is updated to include the change(s).

13. Federal Aviation Administration 13 A management Approach to Runway Safety 03/05/2009 ATIS - Example: “Warning, Runway One-Zero has been shortened, niner- thousand eight hundred and fifty feet available, consult NOTAMs.” Departure - Example: “(Call sign), Runway Two-eight shortened, line up and wait.” “(Call sign), Runway Two-eight shortened, cleared for takeoff.” Landing- Example: “(Call sign), Runway Two-eight shortened, continue.” “(Call sign), Runway Two-eight shortened, cleared to land.” Examples..

14. Federal Aviation Administration 14 A management Approach to Runway Safety 03/05/2009 Actions to Reduce Risk Minimize vehicle access to movement areas Keep airport geometry simple (EB#75) Keep taxiway nomenclature simple (EB#89) Driver training program should be up to date Place current airport diagram and Runway Safety signage/markings placards in vehicles Eliminate confusing call signs for vehicles Use service roads whenever possible
