Airport Operations & Land Use Seminar

by Hal Davis
WisDOT Bureau of Aeronautics

Each fall, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation Bureau of Aeronautics holds a two-day Airport Operations & Land Use Seminar for the people responsible for managing our state’s airports. This seminar provides airport managers with the information and tools they need to take on the day’s challenges.

The 2015 seminar will include sessions on airport marketing, solving general aviation’s most common problems, financing airport development projects, establishing new instrument approaches, unmanned aircraft systems, LiDAR mapping, pavement distress and many more. The afternoon of the second day will be dedicated to “airport project management 101” and cover topics such as funding, project planning, bidding and construction safety.

We invite all airport managers, airport owners, airport committee members, and anyone else who has a hand in managing an airport to attend. There’s no better platform for interacting with FAA officials, bureau of aeronautics staff, airport consultants and other airport managers, all in one place.

The 2015 Airport Operations & Land Use Seminar will take place Wednesday, September 23 and Thursday, September 24 at the Holiday Inn and Convention Center in Stevens Point, Wisconsin.
