The FAA today issued Draft Circular 150/5210-23 – Airport Foreign Object Debris (FOD) Management.
Description:
Provides guidance on developing and managing a FOD program, including minimum performance standards. Addresses prevention, detection, removal, and evaluation. AC will cancel AC 150/5380-5B, Debris Hazards at Civil Airports, dated 7/5/96.
Comments must be received by the close of business on Friday, July 16,2010
You can view the circular at the FAA website here.
I’ll be reviewing the document over the next couple of days.
