Work is currently being conducted to put together the acquisition package. The hope is to be able to review the package sometime in April. Surface Safety Group (SSG) – The last SSG meeting was cancelled due to the government shutdown, but the next SSG meeting will be the week of April 29. At this meeting, we will receive updates from the three subgroups which includes the Data Analysis Team, SSIT, and Outreach/Education. We will work on the 2016 SRM action items and the call to action items that are currently yet to be completed. On the items that are yet to be completed, we will go thru a process of determining next steps/work plan in order to show those items completed. The SSG initially reviewed two full years of data (FY 2016/2017) of category A/B/C runway incursion data. In each meeting, we review the last quarters causal/contributing factors for operational incidents (OIs), pilot deviations (PDs), and vehicle/pedestrian deviations (VPDs). The SSG meets quarterly in order to work thru the call to action items and 2016 SRM action items. Wrong Surface Special Focus RSATs – The Runway Safety group chose nine airports across the NAS that would benefit from a specific wrong surface RSAT discussion. I am presenting at the Special Focus RSATs, discussing ATAP. The nine airports are: PHL, BNA, SAT, AFW/FTW, CNO, STS, BOI, LNK, and ATL.
