1. PURPOSE. This Advisory Circular (AC) provides guidance to the airport operator in the development and implementation of an Airport Emergency Plan (AEP). The AEP addresses essential emergency related and deliberate actions planned to ensure the safety of and emergency services for the airport populace and the community in which the airport is located. The AEP document should be functionally oriented, comprehensive in the assignment of responsibilities, and coordinated at all levels. This AC addresses the following:
a.
The format and organization of information in the AEP.
b.
Provisions for the systematic approach of determining all hazards that warrant emergency
preparedness.
c.
Involvement of local communities, State organizations, and Federal agencies in emergency management and preparedness so that their expertise and resources are incorporated to the mutual benefit of all parties.
2.
CANCELLATION. AC 150/5200-31B, Airport Emergency Plan, dated March 23, 2009, is cancelled.
3.
APPLICATION. This AC provides guidance in meeting the requirements outlined in Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) §139.325, Airport Emergency Plan. An airport operator may elect to follow an alternative method, provided it is also found by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to be an acceptable means of complying with 14 CFR Part 139, Certification of Airports. For certificated airports (part 139), the use of the guidelines and standards in this Advisory Circular is mandatory. In the event of a conflict, 14 CFR part 139 takes precedence over all other documents identified in the AC. The standards contained in this AC should be used for the development of new AEPs and are to be submitted at all part 139 certificated airports no later than June 30, 2011.
For all other airports the FAA recommends the use of the guidelines and standards contained herein for the development of Airport Emergency Plans. Although this AC is not mandatory for non-certificated airports, the AEP for such airports must follow the general guidelines prescribed by Homeland Security Presidential Directive 5 (HSPD-5), Management of Domestic Incidents and Homeland Security Presidential Directive 8 ((HSPD-8), National Preparedness. In development of new AEPs, the FAA also recommends that all airports (certificated and non-certificated) use as guidance certain provisions in the National Fire Protection Agency Standards (NFPA) (i.e. only 424, 1500, 1561, and 1600 (latest editions)).
