ACRP Report 145: Applying an SMS Approach to Wildlife Hazard Management

Details

Abstract: ACRP Report 145 introduces and guides the application of a risk-based approach to wildlife hazard management (WHM) programs and outlines additional steps for integrating such programs into an airport's safety management system (SMS). This report also provides a customizable tool, the Wildlife Hazard Management Risk Assessment Tool (WHaMRAT), which is available as a CD-ROM. The tool includes a summary of existing database wildlife hazard descriptions; numerical values for hazard severity and likelihood by species, derived from the FAA Wildlife Strike Database; and an electronic or manual risk analysis template, which includes the incorporation of variables on or off the airport.
