TSA names acting manager for GA

The TSA said Wilson will lead agency efforts to enhance security within the GA sector, working in partnership with industry “to develop and implement GA policies, programs, rules and regulations that increase security, create efficiencies and reduce burdens on operators.”

The announcement said Wilson comes to the position with “extensive knowledge in air traffic control and airport management with a concentration in airspace security, airport security, and formulating aviation policy and procedures with various governmental agencies and foreign countries.”

He takes on the new post after serving as an assistant general manager in the Transportation Security Network Management’s GA office, where his technical oversight responsibilities included overall policy, long-range objectives, and programs such as the Private Charter Standard Security Program, Twelve Five Standard Security Program, Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) Access Standard Security Program, and the Maryland Three General Aviation Airports located within the Metropolitan Washingto, D.C., Area Flight Restricted Zone, the TSA said.

“AOPA looks forward to working with Mr. Wilson to build a relationship such as we had with his predecessor, Brian Delauter,” said Tom Zecha, AOPA manager of aviation security. Delauter served from July 2009 to May 23, 2011.

GCLA Scores First Date with SF Airport on Green Rules ...

SUMMARY: One of the chauffeured transportation industry’s epic regulatory struggles now heads to table talk for a possible resolution.

SAN FRANCISCO — California operators will get a chance to meet with managers of San Francisco International Airport to explore ways to ease the most stringent green vehicle regulations ever passed against limousine operators.

The first session among officers and lobbyists of the GREATER CALIFORNIA LIVERY ASSOCIATION and managers at SFO will be held at the airport on Wednesday, June 30.

“The airport has softened from a position of mandating new rules by 2012 to “let’s talk,’” said GCLA president Alan Shanedling during a monthly association meeting Tuesday night in Los Angeles.

The GCLA is pushing to bolster its membership and financial support for the lobbying and legal advice it needs to persuade SFO officials to modify the unprecedented rules. SFO policies now on the books will require all luxury limousine and livery vehicles entering airport property to be alternative fueled as of Jan. 1, 2012. Operators entering airport property with conventional gasoline vehicles — still expected to be the vast majority of luxury fleet vehicles for years to come — would see their airport access fees triple. SFO wants to cut its carbon emissions by requiring all ground transportation, including taxicabs, shuttle buses, and now, limo/livery vehicles, to be green.

An SFO official’s announcement in March to the GCLA that the rules would be enforced without changes set of a furor among California operators who held a packed TOWN HALL MEETING on the issue near SFO on May 18.

Operators are concerned that such rules could inspire airports nationwide to adopt similar measures. That would force operators to either convert fleets to more costly, smaller, and less profitable green vehicles or drive those operators who couldn’t afford them out of business. The U.S. also lacks adequate fueling infrastructure now for compressed natural gas, bio-diesel, and propane fueled vehicles.

In California, five major airports either have adopted strict green rules or are considering them, Shanedling said. At the San Diego International Airport, officials passed a rule that requires all limousine and livery vehicles accessing airport property to get at least 45 mpg as of 2017.
