The Aerodromes and Ground Aids (AGA) Task Force (AGA/TF) was established by the Seventh North American, Central American and Caribbean Working Group Meeting (NACC/WG/7), Conclusion C/11, for coordination, elaboration and implementation of projects, activities, development of guidance and training material in the region aiming to increase safety, capacity and efficiency in air navigation in the area of Aerodromes and Ground Aids.

The Terms of reference of the AGA/TF and the AGA Programme were approved by the First North American, Central American and Caribbean Working Group (NACC/WG) Aerodromes and Ground Aids (AGA) Implementation Task Force Meeting (NACC/WG/AGA/TF/1), and updated on its Fourth Meeting (NACC/WG/AGA/TF/4).

Chairperson: Mr. Alberto Rodriguez (United States)
Coordinator: Mr. Fabio Salvatierra (ICAO)
 

The objective of the AGA/TF is to lead, coordinate, support, and monitor the implementation of ICAO provisions and regional priorities concerning aerodrome design, safety, certification, and operations, specialized training of AGA inspectors, fostering a harmonized regional approach to AGA solutions throughout the NACC Region and driving measurable improvements in safety, efficiency, and operational performance.
 
The vision of this Task Force is the development and strengthening of States/Territories and their aerodromes in safety surveillance, together with the increase of air navigation capacity and efficiency, in accordance with ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs), through the implementation of projects and activities in the AGA area, in order to provide a more holistic approach to its evolution and achievement of its objectives.
