Specific project experience includes:

 

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport – Mr. Futterman served as the Project Director for the Strategic Planning element of the HNTB's Joint Venture Planning assignment at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. In this role, he led the development of an updated long term plan for the airport, focused on the location and general configuration of new terminals, access and parking facilities, additional taxiway locations, and mass transit/commercial vehicle access. The goal of the work was to define the most efficient and cost effective plan for the airport for 2010 and 2025.

Seattle Airport Comprehensive Development Plan – Mr. Futterman served as the Principal-in-Charge/Senior Technical Advisor on the HNTB led Comprehensive Development Plan for the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. His role included technical oversight on the development of a revised long term plan for the airport, leading key meetings of the project team and Port Commission, and utilizing his long history of planning experience at the airport to develop an incremental implementation plan geared to minimizing the cost per passenger for airlines at the airport. The plan reduced the previous master plan by over $1 billion. He also was the lead planner for the new third parallel runway at the airport, which opened to traffic in 2008.

Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority On-Call Services – Mr. Futterman served as the Principal-in-Charge throughout the eight years (1996-2004) that HNTB served as On-Call Planning Consultant to the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority for Dulles and National Airports. This role included involvement in key long term planning issues like new terminal and runway placement, as well as assisting with sensitive day-to-day issues that arise in the Authority's dealings with key decision makers, FAA, and other interested parties. Mr. Futterman also served as Principal-in-Charge for the HNTB Design of the Tunnel Program at Dulles.

Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP) – Mr. Futterman led all planning activities for this client for the past 15 years. Key projects included overall project management responsibility for a complex site selection/Master Plan Update/FAR Part 150/Environmental Impact Statement. Master plans and EISs for both expansion of the current airport and the development of a replacement airport were fully developed. The Metropolitan Airports Commission and the Minnesota State Legislature acted in April 1996 to move forward with implementation of the expansion plan for MSP that HNTB and Mr. Futterman then helped to develop. The FAA and state approved the federal and state EISs in 1998 for the MSP 2010 Plan, and the new runway opened at MSP in 2005.

Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) – Mr. Futterman was Project Director for the airport master plan update and Part 150 Noise Compatibility Study, which was completed in 1998, and served as Project Director for HNTB’s on-call planning contract through 2008.  The master plan addressed how to provide facilities for short-term needs while also developing a world-class, long-range plan. The master plan was expanded by the airport authority to further detail the recommended plan into a conceptual design for a replacement terminal building. HNTB was selected in early 1998 to be the Master Architect for the new facility, and Mr. Futterman’s role continued as Project Planner. He also served as Principal-in-Charge for the Runway End Deicing Studies and Design during 2008.

Tampa International Airport Master Plan/Part 150 Study Update (TPA) –Principal-in-Charge and Project Director for a master plan update and P.150 study for TPA. TPA just passed the 30-year anniversary of the new terminal area, and the updated long-term plan provided a blueprint for development for the next 20 to 30 years. Options for expanding landside terminal areas, and the timing and need for additional runway capacity, were among the major project issues.

Denver International Airport, Indianapolis International Airport, Daytona International Airport, Ft. Lauderdale International Airport, and Roanoke Regional Airport – Principal-in-Charge for airport planning projects and environmental studies. Mr. Futterman was the lead planner for the site selection study for the new Denver International Airport.
