ACRP Impacts on Practice - October 2010: Guidebook Informs Nation’s Smaller Airports
In February 2010, TRB’s Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) released
ACRP Report 16: Guidebook for Managing Small Airports, which is designed to help operators and managers of small airports find resources and identify techniques that they may apply to meet their responsibilities. Since its release, the report has quickly become a valuable reference on the myriad of responsibilities and challenges that the nation’s small airport operators and managers face every day. ACRP’s first issue of its new Impacts on Practice series highlights the value of ACRP Report 16 to airports, their communities, and the traveling public.
ACRP’s Impacts on Practice series is designed to provide examples of how airport industry practitioners are using ACRP research results to assist them in their work. The goal of the Airport Cooperative Research Program is to provide well-researched, useful publications that can contribute to the growth and development of the nation's airport industry. ACRP publications can help improve airport administrative practices, develop safer and more effective operational techniques, and increase performance efficiency.
