EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

It is the policy of CMAA to cooperate with the news media to the greatest extent possible. Our primary responsibilities are safe and orderly airport operations. During emergency situations at the Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport the procedures for media access to any accident/incident that has occurred are as follows:

-CMAA Marketing and Communications staff will respond to the media as quickly as information becomes available. Media should use www.chattairport.com as a source for updated information.

-Media briefings may be scheduled and announced for specified briefing areas. During an emergency situation, the CMAA representative will be able to provide only the following information:

• Date and time of incident

• Name of airline or business

• Type of aircraft and flight number or type of equipment involved in the incident (if available)

• The area that has been affected

• Impact on airport operations airside, landside, and near or on the terminal roadway system
