Bird Strike Committee USA/Canada Meeting

Salt Lake City, Utah

 

BSC-USA and AAAE continue Partnership for 2010 Meeting

 

Bird Strike Committee USA/Canada meetings have grown in popularity over the past decade.  There was a record 450 people in attendance at the 2008 meeting hosted by Orlando-Sanford International Airport in Florida.  Because of the growth in attendance and increased emphasis on training and interaction with other organizations in the aviation industry, BSC-USA signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE) in 2006 to collaborate with meetings held in the USA.  AAAE handles registration and meeting logistics, and BSC-USA handles the technical program and training sessions.  This partnership has enhanced the quality of meetings and advanced the integration of BSC-USA and wildlife risk mitigation into the mainstream of the aviation industry.

 

We are pleased to announce that the 2010 USA/Canada meeting will be hosted by Salt Lake City International Airport on 21–24 June (Monday–Thursday).  The conference hotel will be the Hilton Salt Lake City Center, located in the entertainment district of the city.
