FAA

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), within the Department of Transportation (DOT), has been given the responsibility to carry out safety programs to ensure the safest, most efficient aerospace system in the world. The FAA is responsible for:

•     Regulating civil aviation to promote safety;
•     Encouraging and developing civil aeronautics, including new aviation technology;
•     Developing and operating a system of air traffic control and navigation for both civil and military aircraft;
•     Developing and carrying out programs to control aircraft noise and other environmental effects of civil aviation; and
•     Regulating United States (U.S.) commercial space transportation.

One of the programs that help the FAA fulfill this mission is the Designee Information Network Selection Appointment Renewal (DIN SAR) system. DIN SAR supports the management of all Aircraft Certification Service (AIR) designees (e.g., all engineering and manufacturing designees) and a limited number of Flight Standards Service (AFS) designees.

One of the programs that helps the FAA fulfill these responsibilities is the Online voluntary leave Transfer Program/Emergency Leave Transfer Program (OVLTP/ELTP), which provides an online procedure by which employees with adequate sick leave balances may donate some of their annual leave hours to qualified employees who have inadequate or depleted sick leave balances and must remain out of the office for medical reasons. Also, the ELTP provides help to current FAA employees adversely affected under: (a) Operation Enduring Freedom, or (b) Operation Noble Eagle, or (c) an emerging disaster that was a result of the September 11, 2001 terrorist actions to an employee who has a family member who was directly affected.

One of the programs that helps the FAA fulfill these responsibilities is the Aeronautical Center Security Management System (ACSMS), which is used by security forces to authenticate individuals attempting to access the Aeronautical Center. The business functions provided by this Information System are:

•     Temporary Access Badge creation. The system creates temporary access badges for federal personnel upon hire.
•     Key inventory. The system maintains an inventory of magnetic and metal keys issued to personnel for access to varying parts of the facility.
•     Parking Permit Tracking. The system tracks vehicle information associated with parking permits issued to federal employees and contractors.
•     Visitor and vehicles not covered by permit tracking.

This system relates to the mission of the FAA by providing the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center (MMAC) security forces the ability to verify the identity of individuals entering the facility which ensures that only authorized personnel are admitted.
