Overview

• Context – What is runway incursion? – Why this study now? • FAA Initiative • BOS hotspots

– Selection Process

– Preliminary Partial Airfield Geometry Analysis

6 RIM STUDY RFQ: Pre-Submission Briefing; 1/12/16

Runway Incursion Any occurrence at an aerodrome involving the incorrect presence of an aircraft, vehicle or person on the protected area of a surface designated for the landing and take off of aircraft

7 RIM STUDY RFQ: Pre-Submission Briefing; 1/12/16

Runway Incursion Severity Classification

8 RIM STUDY RFQ: Pre-Submission Briefing; 1/12/16

Why this study now? FAA Initiative: • Following the successful completion of RSA Program, the FAA has initiated

a Runway Incursion Mitigation Program • FAA Preliminary Inventory of Airport Locations with Runway Incursions

2007-13 • Primary cause: FAA has identified Airfield Geometry as a primary cause of

Runway Incursions Nationwide: 74 Airports/ 113 locations/60 hot spots • 804 Cumulative Runway Incursions • 395 Peak Annual Runway Incursions

BOS: Incursions at 3 out of 4 hot spots • 31 Cumulative Runway Incursions • 9 Peak Annual Runway Incursions

9 RIM STUDY RFQ: Pre-Submission Briefing;

1/12/16

BOS RI Breakdown by Hot Spots Hot Spot 1 (HS1) • Cumulative RI: 7 • Peak Annual RI : 2

Hot Spot 3 (HS3) • Cumulative RI: 15 • Peak Annual RI : 4

Hot Spot 4 (HS4) • Cumulative RI: 9 • Peak Annual RI : 3

10 RIM STUDY RFQ: Pre-Submission Briefing; 1/12/16

Preliminary Scope of Work Inventory and Analysis: • Analyze the complete airfield geometry for non-standard geometry and potential runway incursion risks

• Analyze the risk associated with Group VI aircraft taxiing on existing taxiways

• Analyze the potential locations for deicing pads without creating adverse airfield geometry issues

• High Fidelity Simulation of Runway and Taxiway Operations

Runway Incursion Mitigation Alternatives: • Propose RIM Alternatives • Conduct Safety Risk Assessment of incursion mitigation alternatives

• Prepare preliminary engineering design/cost estimates for various alternatives

• Identify potential environmental issues/permit considerations

• Prepare Recommendations Deliverables: • Updated ALP and prepare related NEPA documents

• Final Report and Executive Summary

11 RIM STUDY RFQ: Pre-Submission Briefing; 1/12/16

Consultant Qualifications
