Runway incursions remain a serious concern nationally. Conroe North Houston Regional Airport is conducting its annual Runway Safety Action Team (RSAT) meeting on July 12, 2023 at Galaxy FBO.

Shannon Henkel, KCXO Air Traffic Manager is hosting this event in an ongoing effort to increase awareness of runway incursions, and mitigate any potential risk of the general aviation traffic utilizing the Conroe North Houston Regional Airport. The purpose of this RSAT meeting is to unite those individuals and organizations that are actively involved in air traffic operations and movement of aircraft, vehicles, and equipment on the Airport Operations Area (AOA). We look for participation from all major airport interests including tenants, fixed base operators, airport operations and maintenance personnel. Participants are asked to help develop recommendations and solutions to enhance surface safety. Those recommendations serve as the foundation for a site-specific Runway Safety Action Plan.
