Book Description
Terminal Control Areas (TCAs) and Expanded Radar Services (ERS), Stage III, should be very effective in reducing midair collision risks in the busier terminal areas, by converting VFR flights unknown to ATC into known participants in the traffic control process. The report examines the extent to which VFR flights have participated and finds an average of 28%. The costs of providing these services are shown to be predominately labor costs (pro-rated investment costs are estimated to be less than one-half of one year's pro-rated labor costs).

TCA/ERS Effectiveness Study

Pages : 138
Book Description
Terminal Control Areas (TCAs) and Expanded Radar Service (ERS) are two means the FAA is employing to reduce the risk of midair collisions in busy airport terminal areas, particularly in that airspace used by IFR turbojet traffic operating to and from the primary airports. The study evaluates the relative importance of insuring that each controller involved with an ATC-served aircraft has reliable position and altitude data on both it and all nearby aircraft, regardless of whether he is serving them or not. it concludes that the TCA approach should be relatively more effective than the ERS approach in preventing midair collisions. The TCA approach should be most efficient in its use of controllers at automated (ARTS III) facilities for a given level of VFR participation if beacon transponders with automatic altitude reporting capability are required. It also concludes that the airport terminal areas now served by ARTS III facilities represent most of the historic midair collision risks to air carrier operations and passengers.

True Cost Accounting for Food
Author: Barbara Gemmill-Herren
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000389987
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
This book explains how True Cost Accounting is an effective tool we can use to address the pervasive imbalance in our food system. Calls are coming from all quarters that the food system is broken and needs a radical transformation. A system that feeds many yet continues to create both extreme hunger and diet-related diseases, and one which has significant environmental impacts, is not serving the world adequately. This volume argues that True Cost Accounting in our food system can create a framework for a systemic shift. What sounds on the surface like a practice relegated to accountants is ultimately a call for a new lens on the valuation of food and a new relationship with the food we eat, starting with the reform of a system out of balance. From the true cost of corn, rice and water, to incentives for soil health, the chapters economically compare conventional and regenerative, more equitable farming practices in and food system structures, including taking an unflinching look at the true cost of cheap labour. Overall, this volume points towards the potential for our food system to be more human-centred than profit-centred and one that has a more respectful relationship to the planet. It sets forth a path forward based on True Cost Accounting for food. This path seeks to fix our current food metrics, in policy and in practice, by applying a holistic lens that evaluates the actual costs and benefits of different food systems, and the impacts and dependencies between natural systems, human systems, agriculture and food systems. This volume is essential reading for professionals and policymakers involved in developing and reforming the food system, as well as students and scholars working on food policy, food systems and sustainability.
