AIRSIDE SNOW REMOVAL PRACTICES FOR SMALL AIRPORTS WITH LIMITED BUDGETS The objective of this synthesis was to gather information on the challenges faced by small airport operators, particularly those with budgetary and other constraints, in coordinating and conducting snow removal operations; and successful strategies they employ. Information in this report can be used by local and state policy makers, small airport managers, and users of small airports to better understand the needs of their local airports, to enhance snow removal efficiencies, and to help reduce liability exposure.
