NTSB to Hold March Forum on Runway Incursions and Solutions

The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) will hold a one-day forum on March 27, 2007, focusing on runway incursions and their potential solutions.

The forum will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in the NTSB Board Room and Conference Center, 429 L'Enfant Plaza, S.W. in Washington, DC. Government agencies, the industry and the public are invited to attend; registration is not required.

The Board is also inviting industry to present their technologies in display booths that will be available, but since space might be limited, it will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis.  Organizations interested in setting up a display should contact Daniel Bartlett at daniel.bartlett@ntsb.gov with specific requirements no later than March 8, 2007.  Requests for display space after this date cannot be accommodated.

A live Webcast of the forum will be available at www.ntsb.gov, and it will be archived as well. Technical support details are available under "Board Meetings."  To report any problems, one can call (703) 993- 3100 and ask for Webcast technical support.

A meeting agenda will be available two weeks before the event.  02-20-2007.
