      <title>Development of road maintenance management in Tasmania</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/1210117</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Prior to 1968 road maintenance on the classified system was carried out by a patrolman who covered a length of between 16 and 25 km.  It was his responsibility to keep this length in good repair under the direction of a patrol overseer responsible for 160 km of road.  Due to increasing traffic volumes and maintenance costs the department engaged engineering management consultants to analyse and review the maintenance system.  Resulting from their study, an alternative system of maintenance management has been introduced.  The paper details the developments and procedures which have been implemented to produce a controlled method of work allocation and budget expenditure and offers comment on the experience gained during the field trial of the new system (a).]]></description>

      <title>FEASIBILITY OF A SEPARATE SHORT RUNWAY FOR COMMUTER AND GENERAL AVIATION TRAFFIC AT DENVER</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/162249</link>
      <description><![CDATA[An analysis is made of the feasibility of a short, separate runway for general aviation at Denver's Stapleton International Airport and how it may be facilitated by FAA Engineering and Development products. General aviation is defined as private, corporate, and fixed base operators (flight schools and air taxis), and commuter airlines. The analysis is for Instrument Meteorological Conditions using current ATC procedures and consists of: runway placement, obstacle clearance, location of navigational aids, airspace design to segregate aircraft by type to two separate parallel runways, and the design of taxi patterns to allow unimpeded movement of ground traffic. Details of ILS siting such as terrain and multipath problems are not addressed. (Author)]]></description>

      <title>USCG GROUP CONTROL AND COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM STUDY</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/89417</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The results of this study include a survey of the current means used at the Group Office and Station levels for operational communications and control. Also included are current administration and management procedures employed at the Group and Station level. It was concluded that a need exists for a computer-based control and communication system capable of storing and processing information related to Search and Rescue (SAR) missions. Projection of SAR workloads in the 1978-86 time period indicates the need for improving operational effectiveness of SAR operations. A requirements study for a Control and Communications System was performed. A system concept is presented that involves development of a real-time Group SAR data base that would be for operational management of SAR resources, and for preparation of record messages and administration reports. A system concept for Search Planning and Contgrol of 41' and 44' station boats is described. The boat position is monitored by rebroadcast of digitized LORAN-C coordinates to Group Operations Center. The boat position and track history are used by the Group Operations Center to direct the execution of search operations.]]></description>

      <title>MINIMUM GENERAL AVIATION AIRPORT AND AIRWAY SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/170523</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This report forms a part (Volume V) of the Airport and Airway Costs and User Cost Responsibility Study for 1977-1986 time frame. Because the existing ATC system provides services far beyond the minimum requirements of the general aviation (GA) community, there appeared to be a need for providing a lower bound on the GA cost responsibility. The analysis presented here develops a hypothesized GA-only system based on ATC requirements of the GA user group (Including air taxi and business jets), and estimates the associated costs of the postulated system for the ten-year study period.

      <title>CONSOLIDATED CAB DISPLAY (CCD) SYSTEM, PROJECT PLANNING DOCUMENT (PPD)</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/169228</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This report provides the planning guidance for the development, installation, testing and evaluation for the Consolidated Cab Display (CCD) System. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is acquiring two systems for engineering tests and operational evaluations to determine system reliability and design acceptability to Air Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) and Terminal Radar Control (TRACON) controllers. One system will be installed at the FAA Technical Center for engineering and operational evaluations, and a second one at the Atlanta ATCT/TRACON for operational evaluations. The evaluations will provide the FAA with information for making decisions and developing programs for future automation support to the ATCT/TRACON air traffic control specialists.

      <title>PRELIMINARY FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF INTEGRATED FLOW MANAGEMENT</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/177103</link>
      <description><![CDATA[A preliminary functional description of Integrated Flow Management (IFM) is documented in this report. The objective is to provide a strawman concept so that further IFM development activities will proceed from a common reference point based upon agreement among all related program organizations. The distribution of flow management functions among the various ATC facilities and the related interfacility communications requirements are central issues addressed in this report. A road map projection of the IFM near term evolution through the late 1980s and remaining open issues related to the IFM development are also presented. (Author)]]></description>

      <title>AIRPORT GROUND ACCESS STUDY</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/77745</link>
      <description><![CDATA[In response to a request by Congress, the FAA and TSC have undertaken a study to determine the extent to which inadequate (off-airport) ground access to airports constrains airport capacity and air travel. Presently, TSC is preparing case studies of 17 commercial airports os various sizes and locales. This report describes the initial phases of a study on airport access which includes: (1) A methodology for evaluating airport ground access capacity. Data availability and requirements for the application of capacity analysis to any airport access system have been established; (2) A look at the airport access problem as perceived by the operators of large, medium, and small hub airports, as well as a non-hub airport. Information on access conditions was collected and categorized; (3) A review and summarization of a number of previous access studies; and (4) A review and description of the planning, funding, and implementation process for airport access.

      <description><![CDATA[The objective of this study was to determine the extent to which the FAA safety programs were aligned with the causes of general aviation accidents. The data base used in this study consisted of a total of 30,592 general aviation accident records compiled by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) from 1971 through 1977. Analysis of these records was made with respect to NTSB-cited cause/factors. FAA programs implemented during the study time period and pertaining to safety were also included in this study.]]></description>

      <title>DRAFT SRA/RA SYSTEMS DESIGN MANUAL FOR RESTRICTED WATERWAYS</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/177236</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This manual has been written to support aid to navigation system design and maintenance functions performed at the District Office. In Section 1, the procedure presented applies the findings of the project to the specific problem of assigning priorities for the maintenance of individual aids when resources are limited. In Section 2, the procedure presented relates channel or harbor conditions to the aid to navigation systems needed to provide adequate performance. In Section 3, instructions and piloting performance data are provided for design methods which seek to 'manage' the risk of accidents. A second approach described is to design AN systems while considering the cost tradeoff between providing an aid to navigation system versus the value of the increased safety. A series of data collection efforts were conducted on shiphandling simulators and at sea specifically to derive design data for use in this manual. There were five visual simulator efforts, three radio aid simulator efforts, and two at-sea data collections. The draft manual is highly annotated with reference to these efforts.]]></description>

      <title>RESTRUCTURING WITH VOLUNTARY DOWNSIZING</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/485882</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The San Francisco Bay Area Transit District (BART or District) is at a critical juncture in its history.  It is faced with concurrent expansion and rehabilitation of obsolete facilities requiring new and augmented responsibilities for the entire organization.  The management and Board of Directors realized that he District must reorganize its management structure to deal with those challenges and prepare for the trials facing all public transit systems throughout the next decade.  This paper presents the guiding principles that the District attempted to follow in effecting the reorganization, the implementation, the resulting structural changes, and the negative and positive effects.  The basis for the restructured configuration was functional consolidation and management streamlining. Specifically, these aspects are discussed in relation to the requirements of the Maintenance & Engineering Department.  A major restructuring move was the creation of the Maintenance & Engineering Department, merging the Power & Way Maintenance Department with the Engineering Department.  Further restructuring within the Maintenance & Engineering Department was based on divisional functions, the need to accommodate changes in technology, and the elimination of one level of managers.  Humanistic considerations, such as determining the effect on long-term employees, and developing the best fit of personal goals with department goals, were factored into the decision.  Retention of in-house expertise was considered critical since many of the District's systems have a level of complexity that requires long-term experience.  One component of the reorganization, termed the Voluntary Termination Incentive Program, was an incentive program for individuals working only in targeted areas to leave the District.  The District attained the organization's structural goals by January 1996.  Solutions to the "softer variables" such as that of employee adjustment and satisfaction with the process, constitute more difficult issues and remain a challenge.]]></description>
