Airport Sweeping
On airport pavement, loose hardware and debris are foreign object debris — among the most preventable sources of aircraft damage. Moore Clean sweeps aprons, ramps, taxiways, and landside roadways across Texas with regenerative-air equipment and the documentation airport operators are required to maintain.

FOD control
Pavement kept clear of foreign object debris.
What’s included
Airside and landside, on your ops windows
Crews work to your movement schedule, your escort requirements, and your FOD program:
- Apron, ramp & gate-area sweeping between operations
- Taxiway & shoulder sweeping in coordination with ops
- Landside roads, curbs & parking structures
- Post-construction FOD sweeps before pavement returns to service
- Service logs formatted for your Part 139 inspection file
Why it matters
FOD control is a regulatory requirement
Part 139 airports are required to keep paved operating areas free of foreign object debris — 14 CFR §139.305 puts it in the pavement maintenance standard itself — and FAA AC 150/5210-24A lays out what a FOD management program looks like: detection, removal, and records. Sweeping is the removal leg of that triangle.
General aviation fields and private ramps are not held to Part 139 standards, but the operational risk is the same: foreign object debris damages engines, tires, and propellers regardless of a facility’s classification. We apply the same sweeping and documentation standard at every field we serve.

Questions
Airport sweeping FAQ
Can your crews work airside?
Yes. Crews carry insurance to airport requirements, complete badging or work under escort per your access rules, and coordinate every movement with operations. We plan sweeps around your ops windows, including overnight.
What equipment do you use on aprons and taxiways?
Regenerative-air sweepers — the class the FAA’s FOD program guidance contemplates for pavement cleaning — supplemented by compact units for gate areas and magnet passes where ferrous debris is a concern.
Do you provide documentation for Part 139 inspections?
Every sweep produces a dated log with GPS tracking that drops into your pavement-maintenance records. If your FOD program needs a specific format, we match it.
