RONALD REAGAN WASHINGTON NATIONAL AIRPORT
01 INTRODUCTION
The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (the Authority) is responsible for the operation, maintenance
and repair of Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (the Airport).
The Authority’s goal for the Elevator, Escalator, Moving Walk Systems ("EEMWS") is to provide safe, high
quality and reliable services to all Airport users and to achieve excellent customer satisfaction. The Authority’s
objectives to accomplish this goal are as follows:

x To establish and implement an effective quality control program that results in continuous improvement
in system performance.
x To know the operational status and functional performance of the EEMWS at all times.
x To maintain accurate equipment maintenance and repair activity documentation and records.
Terminal B/C elevators, escalators and moving walks became operational in July 1997. The Terminal A
Pedestrian Tunnel elevators, escalators and moving walks became operational in September 2001. Two
elevators located in Hangars 5 and 11 were installed in 2008 and 2006. Units located in the out buildings were
installed prior to 1997 (Appendix B).
