The Airport Capacity Enhancement Plan plays a major role in the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) effort to increase airport capacity and efficiency without compromising the safety of passengers or the environment. The Plan identifies the causes and extent of capacity and delay problems currently associated with the U.S. air system, projects the effects of increased air traffic on airport capacity over the next decade, and outlines various planned and ongoing FAA projects intended to reduce capacity enhancement areas: 1) airport construction and expansion; 2) revised airspace control procedures; 3) additional equipment and systems; and 4) capacity enhancement and planning studies. A description of each project is provided, along with significant milestones and estimates of the resulting capacity-related benefits. Keywords: Air traffic control systems.

The Federal Aviation Administration, along with airport operators and aviation groups throughout the country have initiated joint Airport Capacity Design Teams to study airport capacity enhancement at the major airports in the U.S. The objectives of these studies are to identify various alternatives for increasing capacity and to evaluate their potential for reducing delays. This report has established benchmarks for development based upon traffic levels and not upon any definitive time schedule, since actual growth can vary year to year from projections. As a result, the report should retain its validity until the highest traffic level is attained regardless of the actual dates paralleling the development.--P. 11.
