Operations

Airport Operations is the division that assures the Airport meets federal, state and local requirements 24-hours per day, seven day per week. Operation's primary objective is to maintain a safe and secure environment for the traveling public, respond to emergencies and provide a management presence during after business hours. The division maintains all key operational documents including the Airport Certification Manual, Wildlife Management Plan, Letters of Agreement with FAA and the Airport Master Record information on file with the National Data Center of the FAA.


Operations is staffed by an Operations Manager and Operations Officers that have experience and expertise in many fields to provide program management or input/decisions for: flight operations, wildlife management, all air and landside activities, security, safety, mishap investigation, planning, engineering, project leaders and construction companies, field maintenance, facilities maintenance, environmental, planning and leasing departments. The entire customer base and staff of the Airport has Airport Operations as a point of contact at anytime.

Operational orders are published by the Operations division to inform Airport tenants about Airport procedures.
