TSA announces $6 million for new TV surveillance at Dallas/Fort Worth Airport
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) today announced an approximately $6 million award for the installation of a closed circuit television (CCTV) system at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) -- designed to assist TSA's efforts to strengthen security at airports.
The $6 million award, which comes from fiscal 2009 funds, will enhance closed circuit television (CCTV) systems currently in place at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. CCTV systems are an integral part of TSA and airport security operations, providing a high level of threat detection and enhancing emergency response and risk mitigation.
CCTV technology is used at hundreds of airports across the country, and TSA has collaborated with individual airports to expand these sophisticated and integrated security networks.
