INTERIM REPORT – INTRODUCTION EASA.2009.OP.21 3 Aim of the Interim Report The aim of the Interim Report is to present the Agency with options for the most effective ways in which NAAs could regulate de-icing / anti-icing services in a harmonised way, so that the safety of air operations is maximised, and a level commercial playing field remains ensured. These options centre on how the availability of type I fluids can be improved, and how the quality of service provision can be improved. Options are also presented centred on voluntary mechanisms with potential for achieving the same goals. 3.1 Stakeholders Representatives’ Briefing The options developed are to be presented to stakeholder representatives, including EASA representatives, at a Briefing in Köln, 6 December 2010. The aim of this is to attain feedback from all relevant stakeholder groups on the viability of each option. This feedback can then be included in the subsequent Preliminary Regulatory Impact Assessment, where the safety, economic, social and environmental impact of options will be assessed. Thus allowing substantive recommendations to be made, backed-up with supporting evidence. The options included within this Report are numerous and detailed and, in effect, many of them could form a Work Programme for future development. It is not the intention to present each and every option at the Briefing, but rather to present the higher-level options that meet the criteria of the project; i.e. those options that address regulatory and voluntary mechanisms for improving standards and the availability of fluids. To create a short-list will involve a prioritisation of options and a de-facto list of recommendations; this short-list will be circulated to attendees around 10-days prior to the Briefing as part of an Information Paper. 3.2 EASA Actions The Agency, as well as being the project sponsor, is also a stakeholder and will be able to provide valuable and relevant feedback on the options as they are presented in the Interim Report and also at the Briefing. It seems sensible for the Agency’s representatives to evaluate the options (both high-level and detailed) and provide early feedback on the creation of a short-list for presentation at the Briefing. The allotted 20-day response time expires after the planned Briefing; therefore a quicker turn-round would be necessary. To assist the Agency in this matter, the Study Team will commence immediate drafting of the Information Paper, including a proposed short-list of options to be presented, and this will be available for discussion directly following the planned teleconference on 12 November at 10:30 German Local Time. airsight GmbH - 4 -
INTERIM REPORT – INTRODUCTION EASA.2009.OP.21 4 Contents of the Interim Report The 3 Attachments to the “Options for Change” section of the Report are supporting documents, frequently referred to in the main body of the Report. They are useful in that they provide background details to some of the analysis and opinions within the main Report; however, for expediency, the reader may wish to delay examining these documents. Attachment B (References) is not designed to be read from start to finish, anyway, and is completely a reference document to specific regulations excerpts (and other documents), and includes possible options that were not selected for the main Report. The two main documents: Data Summary and Analysis, and Options for Change, are best read in that order. The latter document’s discussions and conclusions are based on the data presented in the former. 4.1 Data Summary and Analysis This document presents the statistics of responses to on-line questionnaires, interviews and other data sources, followed by analysis of each area within the Study. The analyses presented include: - type I fluid availability, defined by weather zones and Member States, - factors affecting the supply and use of different fluids, - varieties of market mechanisms for supplying de-icing / anti-icing services, - infrastructure ownership and use, - training standards and classifications, and - NAA oversight and responsibilities of the three main affected stakeholder groups: operators, aerodromes and service providers. 4.2 Options for Change This document provides further analysis and opinion. It specifically leads the discussion to numerous options, aimed at a variety of stakeholder groups, to change the status quo. Utilisation is made of existing and available information of relevance, primarily the Agency’s previous work on de-icing / anti-icing matters through A-NPA 2007-11, wherein numerous recommendations that were made remain valid and still need to be considered. Included within the document are discussions on the following subjects: - an Industry-wide safety initiative aimed at collecting data, - the nomination of de-icing / anti-icing subject-matter experts, airsight GmbH - 5 -
