Every Towered Civilian Airport in America has a Runway Safety Action Team (RSAT). Every RSAT is required to conduct a public meeting annually to discuss Runway Safety, Runway Incursion Avoidance, Wrong Surface Landings and any other Runway Safety topics of interest.
You, the flying public, are encouraged to attend and to provide input based on your knowledge and experiences. This is also an opportunity to learn from the airport Air Traffic Control Team, Airport Management, operators on the field, and from your fellow pilots.
Please take the time to participate as an active part in your Aviation Community, and to add your weight to move the risk-pendulum toward SAFETY.
