Purpose of This Order
This order establishes Air Traffic Control (ATC) requirements and responsibilities for the development and implementation of Operational Contingency Plans (OCPs) for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) ATC facilities, including FAA Contract Towers (FCT) and Flight Service Stations (FSS) (FAA and contract), hereafter known as "ATC facilities."
OCPs and supporting procedures that provide continuity are pre-planned actions to respond to events that affect the capability of facilities to provide operational ATC services. OCPs provide guidance during contingency operations and establish continuity until normal services can be fully restored.
