Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport

pursuant to §42301 of the FAA Modernization and
Reform Act of 2012. Questions regarding this
plan can be directed to Jeff Wig at
jeffwig@brainerdairport.com. Brainerd Lakes
Regional Airport is filing this plan with the
Department of Transportation because (1) it is a
commercial airport or (2) this airport may be
used by an air carrier described in USC
42301(a)(1) for diversions.
This plan describes how, following excessive
tarmac delays and to the extent practicable,
Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport will: |
- Provide for
the deplanement of passengers;
- Provide for
the sharing of facilities and make gates
available at the airport; and
- Provide a
sterile area following excessive tarmac
delays for passengers who have not yet

Plan to Provide for the Deplanement of
Passengers Following Excessive Tarmac Delays[4]
Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport has limited
equipment and personnel needed to safely deplane
passengers from air carrier aircraft. We will
utilize this equipment to deplane passengers as
soon as practicable after receiving requests
from such airlines at the contact number listed
above. We will also provide a list of airlines,
ground handlers, fixed base operators and others
who may have the necessary equipment and
personnel to safely deplane passengers to
airlines as soon as practicable after receiving
requests from such airlines experiencing
excessive tarmac delays at the contact number
listed above.
Plan to Provide for the Sharing of
Facilities and Make Gates Available in an
Emergency[5]
The gates at Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport are
under common use gate leases, permits, or
agreements to air carriers and are controlled by
the airport. We direct our common use air
carriers users to make gates and other
facilities available to an air carrier seeking
to deplane at a gate, to the maximum extent
practicable.
.
Plan to Provide a Sterile Area for
Passengers Who Have Not Cleared
United States Customs and Border Protection[6]
Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport does not have
international passenger processing facilities.
We will coordinate with local CBP and law
enforcement officials to identify suitable areas
and procedures for establishing a temporary
sterile area into which international passengers
on diverted aircraft who have not yet cleared
United States Customs and Border Protection can
be deplaned. Once these efforts are complete, we
will coordinate with local CBP officials to
develop procedures that will allow international
passengers who have not yet cleared United
States Customs and Border Protection to be
deplaned into these sterile areas to the extent
practicable.[7] |
