Port Emergency Operations Centers
Ongoing airports
communications
maintained to
insure safety and
operations
BY JEFF YAPALATER
The Port Authority JFK, LGA
and EWR airports all have Airport
Operations Centers (AOC)
and Emergency Operations Centers
(EOC). The AOC is the daily
Port hub of communications. The
EROC is called upon for emergencies.
A daily call (DACC) at
9:30 am at JFK provides a rundown
of all Port ops, airlines,
cargo, Airtrain, TSA, and CBP
with representatives on the call.
Both General Manager Charles
Everett and Deputy GM Teresa
Rizzuto are often on the calls
and strongly encourage all other
stakeholders to report in so a line
of communication is always open.
