The press briefing highlighted how the recently deployed TSA explosives detection teams serve as a critical layer of security at your local airport. Canine teams are one of the most efficient means of detecting explosive substances. The teams are highly mobile and can be rapidly deployed in response to threats anywhere in the airport to provide reliable explosives detection capabilities.
TSA-certified canine teams are single purpose trained only to detect explosive materials. The teams play a vital role in the overall security posture of the transportation modes to which they are deployed.
The new facility will allow the airport maintenance department to consolidate to one central location closer to the terminal building in order to better serve airport partners and the flying public. It replaces an aging facility that can no longer accommodate the growing needs of the airport.
