Subpart 139.H -- Aerodrome rescue and firefighting services
Note: As a signatory to the Chicago Convention, Australia is obliged to
require, as part of its domestic law, that certain classes of airport provide
rescue and firefighting services of an adequate standard. (See generally
section 9.2 of chapter 9 of Annex 14 to the Chicago
Convention.) To satisfy that obligation, this Subpart requires operators of
aerodromes that have scheduled international traffic, or specified levels of
domestic passenger traffic, to provide those services, and sets out the
standards that apply to such services. Aerodromes that are not obliged to
provide an ARFFS may choose to do so, and this Subpart will apply to a service
so provided until the operator gives reasonable notice that it will no longer
provide such a service.
