The Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) commissioned this project to evaluate this disposal practice, and specifically, to accomplish the following two objectives: Objective 1: Estimate the discard amounts from fuel testing samples that are entering the stormwater runoff system. Objective 2: Develop a variety of airport and aviation best practices of aircraft fuel-tank sampling to prevent contaminants from entering the stormwater runoff system.

Airports and airlines continue to work together to deliver cost-effective and quality services to passengers and users. As such, they seek new and effective strategies to better manage airport facilities, equipment, systems, and services. Generally, the airport operator or individual airlines maintain these facilities, equipment, systems, and services. Occasionally, they are managed and maintained by airport-airline consortiums.Airports and airlines would benefit from additional information to increase their understanding, evaluation, and participation in airport-airline consortiums. ACRP Synthesis 31: Airline and Airport-Airline Consortiums to Manage Terminals and Equipment recently described several current consortium arrangements and concluded that the consortium model is flexible and can be adapted to fit many circumstances and requirements. The objective of this research was to prepare a guidebook for airport operators and airline representatives who are responsible for agreements related to airport facilities, equipment, systems, and services and who may be interested in evaluating, advocating, or forming consortiums to provide needed services. The guidebook provides a discussion of the structure, organization, governance, membership provisions, scope, administrative and operational staffing, best practices for the preparation of consortium agreements and performance standards, capitalization, and cost allocation methodology, as well as identifies areas that have been most challenging in the operation of consortiums from the airport's, airline's and operators perspectives.

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2400 consists of 10 papers selected for awards in a nationwide competition under the 2012 to 2013 Graduate Research Award Program on Public-Sector Aviation Issues. Topics explored by the papers include screening times at airport security checkpoints; runway incursion risks; the role of competitor pricing in multiairport choice; congestion mitigation at John F. Kennedy International Airport; and ground delay programs. This issue of the TRR also examines terminal-area weather penetration; fuel burn and emission reduction from taxiing aircraft; characterization of individual air travel behavior using social network data; and airport capacity enhancement and flight predictability. The Graduate Research Award Program on Public-Sector Aviation Issues is managed by TRBs Airport Cooperative Research Program and sponsored by the Federal Aviation Administration. The program is designed to encourage applied research on airport and related aviation system issues and to foster the next generation of aviation community leaders.

There is information on nearly every subject of concern to the airport industry. Much of it derives from research or from the work of practitioners faced with problems in their day-to-day work. To provide a systematic means for assembling and evaluating such useful information and making it available to the entire airport community, the Airport Cooperative Research Program authorized the Transportation Research Board to undertake a continuing study. This study, ACRP Project A11-03, Synthesis of Information Related to Airport Practices, searches out and synthesizes useful knowledge from all available sources and prepares concise, documented reports on specific topics. Reports from this endeavor constitute an ACRP report series, Synthesis of Airport Practice.

Airport administrators, planners, engineers, and researchers often face problems for which information already exists, either in documented form or as undocumented experience and practice. This information may be fragmented, scattered, and unevaluated. As a consequence, full knowledge of what has been learned about a problem may not be brought to bear on its solution. Costly research findings may go unused, valuable experience may be overlooked, and due consideration may not be given to recommended practices for solving or alleviating the problem.
