One highlight in the Association’s work in this area came in the form of a June summit held by the Transportation Security Administration, in which NBAA participated, to determine if the security plan for Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) could be simplified without compro-mising security in the nation’s capital. NBAA representatives told the TSA’s General Aviation branch that the requirements for flying into DCA under the TSA’s DCA Access Standard Security Plan (DASSP) were so onerous as to pose a de facto prohibition on access to the airport. NBAA provided TSA officials with number of sugges-tions and alternatives to the existing DASSP program that would improve upon the established process while ensuring a consistent level of security and safety.

The initial response from regulators was positive, with the EPA stating that a phase-out of avgas was not imminent and extending the public comment period for the ANPRM. Congressio-nal lawmakers also proposed $2 million for research into a replacement fuel. 中国公务机网 www.gongwuji.com 公务机翻译 www.aviation.cn 本文链接地址：2010 nbaa annual report 2010 nbaa 年度报告(6) |
