The study evaluates the nature and scope of regulations governing airport certification, the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) method of assuring compliance with the regulations, and the FAA's airport inspections. The study discusses facility and equipment conditions and airport programs and procedures which exist to satisfy regulatory requirements, such as bird hazard reduction, snow removal, fuel storage and handling, public protection, ground vehicle operation, crash-fire-rescue training, condition assessment and reporting, and emergency plan exercises. The study discusses the complex issues of obstructions, noise abatement procedures, and land use which have plagued airports, landowners, and local authorities for years, and their relationship to the potential for loss and destruction as a result of accidents in residential or commercial areas which have surrounded and constrained some airports.
