Security Badge Process
BLUE BADGE - Air Carrier Facilities / East Air Cargo Facilities / Signature Flight Support Facilities
If obtaining an Airport Security Badge for the Air Carrier facilities / East Air Cargo facilities / Signature Flight Support facilities, persons must:
First, obtain and complete Form A. The form must then be signed by the company's
"Authorized Signature". In addition, the applicant must complete and sign a Form B
within the presence of a Notary Public. The Notary must stamp the form with their seal (Fees for the notary are the responsibility of the applicant).
Next, the applicant must schedule an appointment to have a Criminal History Records Check, (CHRC) via a fingerprint process by contacting the Airport
Badging Office at 256-5005. Form F will also need to be completed by the employer.
The applicant will bring Forms A, B & F, as well as two forms of identification, one having to be a government issued photo Id, to the fingerprinting session.
The CHRC results are normally returned to the Airport Badging Office within twenty four hours. In certain circumstances, this process may take longer.
In addition to the CHRC, all applications will be submitted to the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) so they may conduct a Security Threat
Assessment (STA). The processing time for this requirement will take anywhere from three days to two weeks.
Once both background results have been returned to the Airport Badging Office, the Operations Assistant will call the applicant and set up enrollment in
the Security Training Class.
Airport Security Training Class is offered every Tuesday at 9:00 a.m. and every Thursday at 2:00 p.m., (excluding holidays). The applicant must bring photo
identification to verify their legitimacy to attend the class. The applicant must check-in at the Airport Badging Office in Room 207 at least ten minutes
prior to the scheduled start time of the class.
Once the class has been completed, the applicant has submitted the appropriate tests; the applicant will be provided his/her Airport Security Identification Badge.
