Department of Public Safety
On behalf of the men and women of the Charleston County Aviation Authority Department of Public
Safety, it is a distinct pleasure to present the 2015 / 2016 Annual Report. As we reflect upon another successful
year, we would like to extend our thanks and appreciation to the Charleston County Aviation Authority Board
of Commissioners, the Airport Director and staff, and the citizens and airport tenants for your continued
support of the agency. As an official report, it is statistical in nature and, as such, does not capture the
personality of this agency.
As in past years, the men and women of the Charleston County Aviation Authority Department of Public
Safety continue to demonstrate an excellent degree of dedication, dependability, and collective desire to provide
a higher level of professional service to the airport community by volunteering their time and efforts in support
of community projects, the Agency, and the Authority. They remain constant in the face of an ever-changing
environment and make every attempt to ensure every airport customer receives the highest level of protection
possible. We remain prepared for whatever changes and challenges the next year shall bring.
As the Aviation Authority Department of Public Safety prepares to go forward into another fiscal year,
new challenges will require every effort for success. “To Protect and Serve” the community is the very theme
of the agency mission. Through efficient and effective use of resources, the Department of Public Safety seeks to
aid the traveling public, while remaining accountable to the organization and citizens we serve.
Finally, I want to thank all the members of the Charleston County Aviation Authority Department of
Public Safety for their dedication, professionalism, and hard work to proudly serve the citizens of the Airport
District. Again, thank you for your continued support and allowing us to serve you, our customers.
Sincerely,

Traffic Counts
Traffic counts measuring volumes of traffic within the Authority’s road complex are conducted quarterly.
Traffic volumes provide indicators of roadway usage and established traffic patterns via specific days of the
week. This information is correlated with traffic accident information to establish enforcement patterns to
reduce accident trends and to facilitate the safe movement of vehicles on the Authority roadways.

The Airport Department of Public Safety maintained an overall clearance rate of 97.7 per cent for all reported
criminal activities during the FY 15/16. This fiscal year the Authority Department of Public Safety generated
2,662 South Carolina State Incident Reports. The reduction in Calls for Service stems partially from eliminating
duplicate reporting of non-criminal events. Historically, the Agency initiated State Incident Reports on events or
incidents not related to law enforcement or reportable to the State. Other departments within the Authority often
duplicated these events in their own in-house reports. With airport growth, personnel increases, and around the
clock coverage by these departments, police officers can better focus on security and law enforcement aspects
of their duties and responsibilities.

activities can have on the aviation traveler in order to provide adequate levels of protection and services. The
Authority Department of Public Safety is an active participant in planning and providing support services
regarding anticipated passenger trends or special events. The Department of Public Safety provides crime
