Airport Emergency Planning AEP Guidance Materials
Foreword
In accordance with the provisions in CAR 139, Airport Operators are required to establish at every airport an emergency plan commensurate with the aircraft operations and other activities conducted at the airport. The purpose of the material in this Guidance Material is to assist Operators in the implementation of these specifications and thereby help to ensure their uniform application. The material in the manual relates principally to matters concerning pre-planning for airport emergencies, as well as co-ordination between the different airport agencies (or services) and those agencies in the surrounding community that could be of assistance in responding to the emergency. It does not include material on how an agency is to carry out its particular functions such as those of the rescue and firefighting services or air traffic control service. Such material remains in the regular documents concerning these specialties. Detailed complementary guidance material dealing with emergencies.
