The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), airport operators, and aviation industry groups have initiated joint Airport Capacity Design Teams at various major air carrier airports throughout the U.S. These Capacity Teams identify and evaluate alternative means to enhance existing airport and airspace capacity to handle future demand. A Capacity Team for Houston Intercontinental Airport (IAH) was formed in 1991. The Capacity Team identified and assessed various actions which, if implemented, would increase IAH's capacity, improve operational efficiency, and reduce aircraft delays. The purpose of the process was to determine the technical merits of each alternative action and its impact on capacity.
