The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's Impacts on Practice: Onboarding New Staff with ACRP Resources details how the Indiana Department of Transportation shares ACRP research products with new airport managers to provide guidance and real-world case studies for addressing a range of ai... http://www.trb.org/Resource.ashx?sn=ACRPIOPcoverforusingACRPinonboarding http://www.trb.org/Main/Blurbs/182989.aspx 867fdf4f-733b-48cc-8850-d14f2cd0c33d Fri, 19 May 2023 14:00:31 GMT The threat of wildlife strikes with aircraft is increasing due to larger bird populations and quieter aircraft. The challenge of managing this risk has prompted the development of Wildlife Hazard Management Plans (WHMPs) by airport operators, which are required to be reviewed regularly. However, there is little guidance available to assess the effectiveness of these plans over time.

An insurance program can be quite complex, addressing types of coverage, limits, retention amounts, and legal and contractual issues, among other factors. The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's ACRP Research Report 248: Airport Insurance Requirements provides best practices for airports developing an insurance program, including requirements for contracts with third parties doing business at the airport. ... http://www.trb.org/Resource.ashx?sn=cover_acrp_rpt_248 http://www.trb.org/Main/Blurbs/182800.aspx 2722fc13-34da-41f7-8f93-4c6ae2602c63 Fri, 12 Aug 2022 14:00:32 GMT Airport economic impact studies may accurately measure the activity that occurs on airport properties or is tied directly to airport operations (such as off-site parking and hotels that accommodate airline crew who overnight in a location), but they do not capture how air service supports business and employment throughout the region.

The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's ACRP WebResource 12: Air Service Development and Regional Economic Activity provides resources to help airports and their communities estimate how changes in air service could positively or negatively impact their economy. Methods for communicating the contribution of air service to local employment and economic activity are also provided.

They are seeking to be responsive to their current and emerging business needs, which can change over time. The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's ACRP Research Report 240: Primer for Airport Organizational Redesign provides guidelines for airport leaders on strategies and steps as they navigate the process of reorganizing their structure. http://www.trb.org/Resource.ashx?sn=cover_acrp_rpt_240 http://www.trb.org/Main/Blurbs/182759.aspx 20319127-2f7f-43db-b475-b91b6d95c3b8 Wed, 18 May 2022 16:00:35 GMT The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's ACRP WebResource 11: Construction Safety and Phasing Plans provides airport personnel, consulting engineers/designers, and contractors with a detailed process to improve the development, implementation, and management of construction safety and phasing plans (CSPPs) and safety plan compliance documents (SPCDs) for airport construction projects. http://www.trb.org/Resource.ashx?sn=acrpwebresourcecover http://www.trb.org/Main/Blurbs/181447.aspx 297a972b-8acc-4188-8a0d-a947835bac3a Mon, 09 Nov 2020 12:55:59 GMT The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's ACRP WebResource 9: Airport Emergency Plan Development Tool is an online tool that produces airport-specific airport emergency plans (AEPs) in a format consistent with the Federal Aviation Administration’s Advisory Circular 150/5200-31C. The tool provides a user-friendly, sequential, and interactive format to create the plan, and includes introductory videos and question-specific help to enable accurate responses. http://www.trb.org/Resource.ashx?sn=acrpwebresourcecover http://www.trb.org/Main/Blurbs/181395.aspx be87e3ec-8f7b-4ab9-8268-7c334af0ce9c Fri, 30 Oct 2020 11:54:57 GMT Across the country, state transportation agencies of various modes have been required to incorporate performance measures (PMs) into their core business functions. With this trend developing nationwide, the TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's ACRP Research Report 223: Performance Measures for State Aviation Agencies develops PMs for the National Association of State Aviation Officials (NASAO) membership and their respective state aviation agencies. http://www.trb.org/Resource.ashx?sn=cover_ACRP_rr_223a http://www.trb.org/Main/Blurbs/180833.aspx bae4d21c-3c0a-4bcf-88ea-942bee80edbe Fri, 26 Jun 2020 11:57:13 GMT The fixed-base operator (FBO) industry provides aeronautical services to a wide spectrum of aircraft operators at airports. The term FBO is defined by the FAA as “a business granted the right by the airport sponsor to operate on an airport and provide aeronautical services . . .” The most basic FBO offers its customers self-service fueling, as well as a set of core services such as use of hangars, ground services, and, sometimes, aircraft maintenance.
