The FAA proposed a civil penalty of $167,343.
In a memo to the city manager, Dayton City Attorney Barbara Doseck said a $100,000 settlement would be in the city’s best interest based on potential liability and costs of continued litigation.
As part of the settlement agreement, the city would agree to corrective actions that include amending its airport certification manual to include a process to ensure and document that it has sufficient qualified personnel for its shifts for airport operations and maintenance operations, as well as aircraft rescue and firefighting.
Dayton also would have to provide a report describing deficiencies or areas of concern in its processes and procedures related to aircraft rescue and firefighting, airport and maintenance operations and airfield vehicle maintenance.
