Author Description

TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Report 153: Guidebook for IROPS Stakeholder Communication & Coordination provides details on strategies and tools for reducing IROPs impacts on passengers. This guidebook will assist communication and coordination as airports and airlines implement IROPS contingency plans. A spreadsheet tool accompanying the report includes a response plan for stakeholders' involvement in assessing the likelihood and severity of reoccurrence of IROPS impacts, data sources to help alert an airport when an IROPS event is likely to occur, and the ability to work with stakeholders to create reports on IROPS risk levels. The case studies and tabletop exercises also serve as training materials and can be customized for any airport. The CD-ROM is also available for download from TRB's website as an ISO image.
