Attachment 1.Pdf Q. Is imaging technology optional? A. Yes, imaging technology screening is optional for all passengers. Passengers who do not wish to receive imagining technology screening will receive alternative screening, including a physical pat-down. Q. Is imaging technology safe? A. Advanced imaging technology is safe and meets national health and safety standards. Backscatter technology was evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH), the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST), and the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL). For comparison, a single scan using backscatter technology produces exposure equivalent to two minutes of flying on an airplane, and the energy projected by millimeter wave technology is thousands of times less than a cell phone transmission. Millimeter wave imaging technology meets all known national and international health and safety standards. In fact, the energy emitted by millimeter wave technology is 1000 times less than the international limits and guidelines. Q. What has TSA done to protect my privacy? A. TSA has implemented strict measures to protect passenger privacy, which is ensured through the anonymity of the image. For millimeter wave technology: Automated target recognition (ATR) software detects any metallic and non-metallic threats concealed under a passenger’s clothing by displaying a generic outline of a person on a monitor attached to the AIT unit highlighting any areas that may require additional screening. The generic outline of a person will be identical for all passengers. If no anomalies are detected, an “OK” appears on the screen with no outline. For Backscatter technology: A remotely located officer views the image and does not see the passenger, and the officer assisting the passenger cannot view the image. The image cannot be stored, transmitted or printed, and is deleted immediately once viewed. Additionally, there is a privacy algorithm applied to blur the image. Q. How does the imaging technology screening process work? A. Each passenger will be asked to take everything out of their pockets (including non-metallic items) and walk into the imaging portal. Once inside, they will be asked to stand in a position and remain still for a few seconds while the technology creates an image in real time. Passengers then exit the opposite side of the portal and collect belongings. The entire process takes a matter of seconds. Q. How does backscatter imaging technology work? A. Backscatter technology projects an ionizing X-ray beam over the body surface at high speed. The reflection, or “backscatter,” of the beam is detected, digitized and displayed on a monitor. Each full body scan produces less than 10 microREM of emission, the equivalent to the exposure each person receives in about 2 minutes of airplane flight at altitude. It produces an image that resembles a chalk-etching, and has a privacy filter applied to the entire body. Q. How does millimeter wave imaging technology work? A. Millimeter wave imaging technology uses harmless electromagnetic waves to detect potential threats, which are highlighted on a generic outline of a person appearing on a monitor attached to the unit. If no anomalies are detected, an “OK” appears on the screen with no outline. Q. Where are imaging technology machines located? A. Currently, there are over 800 advanced imaging technology machines located at approximately 200 airports nationwide. Airports that have, or are scheduled to receive, imaging technology: Abilene Regional Airport (ABI) Akron-Canton Airport (CAK) Albany International Airport (ALB) Albuquerque International Sunport (ABQ) Amarillo International Airport (AMA) Aspen-Pitkin County Airport (ASE) Atlantic City International Airport (ACY) Augusta Regional Airport (AGS) Austin Straubel International Airport (GRB) Austin-Bergstrom Airport (AUS) Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) Bangor International Airport (BGR) Baton Rouge Airport (BTR) Billings Logan International Airport (BIL) Bishop International Airport (FNT) Bismark Municipal Airport (BIS) Blue Grass Airport (LEX) Boise Airport (BOI) Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) Bozeman Gallatin Field Airport (BZN) Bradley International Airport (BDL) Brownsville/South Padre Island International Airport (BRO) Buffalo Niagara International Airport (BUF) Burbank Bob Hope Airport (BUR) Burlington International Airport (BTV) Bush Houston Intercontinental Airport (IAH) Casper Natrona County International Airport (CPR) Cedar Rapids Eastern Iowa Airport (CID) Central Illinois Regional Airport (BMI) Central Wisconsin Airport (CWA) Champaign Willard Airport (CMI) Charleston International Airport (CHS) Charleston Yeager Airport (CRW) Charlotte County Airport (PGD) Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (CHA) Cherry Capital Airport (TVC) Chicago Midway Airport (MDW) Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD) Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) Cleveland International Airport (CLE) Columbia Metropolitan Airport (CAE) Columbus Metropolitan Airport (CSG) Cordova Municipal Airport (CDV) Corpus Christi International Airport (CRP) Cyril E King Airport (STT) Dallas Love Field Airport (DAL) Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) Dane County Regional Airport (MSN) Dayton International Airport (DAY) Daytona Beach Airport (DAB) Denver International Airport (DEN) Des Moines International Airport (DSM) Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW) Dothan Regional Airport (DHN) Eagle County Regional Airport (EGE) El Paso International Airport (ELP) Elmira/Corning Regional Airport (ELM) Eugene Airport (EUG) Fairbanks International Airport (FAI) Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) Fort Walton Beach Airport (VPS) Fort Wayne International Airport (FWA) Fresno Air Terminal Airport (FAT) Gainesville Regional Airport (GNV) Gary Regional Airport (GYY) General Mitchell Milwaukee International Airport (MKE) Gerald R.

    AIRPORT MASTER PLAN CHAPTER 5 - RECOMMENDED DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT AND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS centurIon PLANNING AND DESIGN AIRPORT MASTER PLAN – CHAPTER FIVE | RECOMMENDED DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT AND FINANCIAL ANALYSIS The selection of a Recommended Development Concept is based on a combination of efforts by the planning team, Airport and City leadership, and tenant input. The airport master planning process for San Angelo Regional Airport (SJT) began with an inventory of existing facilities (Chapter One) followed by an evaluation of existing and potential future operational demand (Chapter Two) and facilities necessary to accommodate such demand (Chapter Three). Development alternatives were formulated to meet airport needs (Chapter Four) and then presented to the Planning and Technical Advisory Committees. Input received from these committees, Airport Leadership, and City Leadership resulted in the identification of the Recommended Development Concept. The purpose of this chapter is to describe the recommended direction for the future development of SJT. This begins with a definition of the Recommended Development Concept. This concept will be appropriately phased, taking into consideration the planning horizons defined within the aviation forecasts and facility requirements. The phasing will result in the formulation of a Capital Improvement Program and a financial plan will define the financial implications and opportunities of planned development. Recommended Development Concept The Recommended Development Concept is depicted on Exhibit 5A. This concept provides airport improvements that not only conform to the City’s goals and objectives but also meet identified facility needs while maintaining flexibility for future airfield expansion. The Recommended Development Concept was prepared after the development alternatives presented in Chapter Four were vetted and refined based on stakeholder input.
