Being knowledgeable about fueling operations and systems is an important factor in promoting safe fueling practices and mitigating negative outcomes. Preventing negative consequences from a fuel mishap is relevant to all sizes of airports. Of primary concern to an airport operator are the fuel processes, facilities, and equipment located within the property lines of the airport. Once fuel crosses onto airport property, its environmental safekeeping becomes the responsibility of the airport operator, no matter who is involved in the receipt, storage, or delivery of the fuel to aircraft. In many aspects of fueling, the airport operator is identified as the principal responsible party under environmental regulations because the operator owns the land upon which fueling occurs and controls the use of the land. The actual ownership of fuel facilities on airport property can vary. Airports contemplating taking over fueling operations or seeking to exercise greater safety oversight of existing operations can find the resources referenced in this report to be of value. The purpose of this report is to promote understanding of airport fueling systems.
