Runway incursions remain a serious concern nationally. One
important component of our ongoing efforts to improve surface safety at Bozeman
Yellowstone International Airport involves conducting a Runway Safety Action
Team (RSAT) meeting at least once each year. In conjunction with airport
management,
we will be conducting a local RSAT meeting on Wednesday, August 7, 2024. The
meeting is scheduled from 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. and will be held virtually via Microsoft Teams. The public is also welcome to attend the virtual meeting locally at the Airport Operations/Customs Building (old terminal building just north of the tower). The purpose of this RSAT meeting is to unite those individuals
and organizations that are actively involved in air traffic operations and
movement of aircraft, vehicles and equipment on the Airport Operations Area
(AOA). We look for participation from all major airport interests including
tenants, fixed base operators, airport operations and maintenance personnel. Participants
are asked to help develop recommendations and solutions to enhance surface
safety. Those recommendations serve as the foundation for a site-specific
Runway Safety Action Plan. You are cordially invited to join us.
Your participation is important and your input is welcomed.
Please RSVP to Gail Wattum at

be attending.
