Another successful snow removal season in the books for Fire Rescue ❄️🚒

Countless hours, tough conditions, and unwavering dedication from our crews ensured the mission was accomplished every time. Through snow, wind, low visibility and dangerous conditions our commitment never wavered.

"Our dedication to the safety of passengers and aviation staff is unwavering."

For the past 48 hours, Members of Fire Rescue along with Maintenance, and Custodial Departments worked around the clock during the blizzard, clearing runways, taxiways, ramps, and roadways to keep operations moving safely.

Through heavy snow, high winds, and freezing conditions, their dedication and teamwork ensured the airfield remained operational and ready to respond at a moment’s notice.

Outstanding work by all involved.
