Below is the uncorrected machine-read text of this chapter, intended to provide our own search engines and external engines with highly rich, chapter-representative searchable text of each book. Because it is UNCORRECTED material, please consider the following text as a useful but insufficient proxy for the authoritative book pages.

47 Section 3.0 of the User Guide (Appendix C) provides eight case studies that detail how the WHaMRAT responds to various situations that airport or wildlife staff may encounter. Case Studies #1 through #7 apply to both the EZ-Version WHaMRAT and the Advanced-Version WHaMRAT. Case Study #8 is specific only to the Advanced-Version WHaMRAT. Situations covered in the case studies are: • Case Study #1—Seasonal flocking behavior. • Case Study #2—Changes in guilds present. • Case Study #3—Change in airport operations tempo. • Case Study #4—Change in incompatible habitat on- or off-airport. • Case Study #5—Change in habitat mitigation on airport property. • Case Study #6—Change in wildlife mitigation targeted at a specific guild. • Case Study #7—Change in wildlife mitigation on airport infrastructure. • Case Study #8—User input of wildlife identified at the species level (only in the Advanced- Version WHaMRAT).

TRB’s Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Report 145: Applying an SMS Approach to Wildlife Hazard Management introduces and guides the application of a risk-based approach to wildlife hazard management (WHM) programs and outlines additional steps for integrating programs into an airport’s Safety Management System (SMS).

This report also provides a customizable tool, which is available as a CD-ROM. The tool includes:

  • A summary of existing database wildlife hazard descriptions
  • Numerical values for hazard severity and likelihood by species, derived from the FAA Wildlife Strike Database
  • An electronic or manual risk analysis template, which includes the incorporation of variables on or off the airport

The CD-ROM is also available for download from TRB’s website as an ISO image. Links to the ISO image and instructions for burning a CD-ROM from an ISO image are provided below.
