SMO - Security Enhancement Project

1. Congress has not found that passenger screening for general aviation passengers is necessary. 2. No regulatory or legal authority or requirement to conduct GA passenger screening exists.

3. DHS Issued GA Security Guidelines 2017 based on layered, risk-based, intelligence driven programs that did not include any requirement or recommendations to implement passenger screening

SECURITY DESIGN – ACCESS CONTROL UPGRADES

Upgrade:

  • Gates are monitored and can be controlled remotely.
  • Each person will need to present a valid PIN to get access.
  • New key cards are used as an ID security badge.
  • New system becomes an integrated extension of the existing system used by the City of Santa Monica.

Benefit:

  • Reporting of unauthorized access allows airport police to immediately respond to potential threats.
  • Remote monitoring capability by the City.
  • Integration with video surveillance.
  • Individuals on the AOA can be identified by their ID badge.

Upgrade:

  • Each vehicle gate will be provided with dedicated camera to monitor the gate and area around it.

Benefit:

  • CCTV camera will provide full coverage of gate and adjacent area for general surveillance and alarm adjudication for police to provide appropriate

response.

  • Recorded video can be used for security incident investigations.
  • Clearly visible CCTV cameras on AOA become a deterrent discouraging potential intruders.
