STORM workshops to date which has provided more
than 4,200 FAA employees and contractor personnel
with the understanding of how to perform ORM
during projects in the NAS.
Troy's colleague Jon Stanton (Engineer/New England
Region, ENE), who nominated Troy for this award,
said, "As a member of the 6000.15 General Maintenance
Handbook and 6000.50 NAS Project Implementation
Risk Management revision teams, Troy was instrumental
in policy updates that ensured improvements to the
operational impact of projects on the NAS."
Al Arcese (ENE) highlighted Troy's support of the Air
Tra c Safety Action Program (ATSAP)-X program.
"Troy is a very vocal supporter of all of our voluntary
safety reporting programs, especially ATSAP-X. His
enthusiasm for ATSAP-X has always ensured that the
brie ngs in Chicago consistently have the highest local
turnout and participation."
Re ecting on what safety means to him, Troy says,
"Safety is about getting our mindset to where we always
have that in the back of our mind that we want to make
sure we're considering risks, and we're doing our best
to make sure we keep the ying public as safe as we
can. From an engineering perspective, we shorten it to
'don't surprise air tra c.'" When asked if he had advice
to his colleagues looking to be more safety focused, he
said, "It's not about you just installing this cable, or it's
not about you just doing this design. It's really the big
machine that we're part of. We all have a role in making
sure that we keep the ying public safe."
