Narrative:

The fwa hi and logan sectors routinely exceed acceptable operational levels of traffic daily, controllers work well above 100 percent. This, alone, taxes the system, causes controller fatigue and unsafe sits develop. Safety is further compromised when tmu inadequately monitors these sectors during WX without a workable, reliable monitor program and procedure. Tmu does not even know when fwa hi and logan are above 80 percent, much less 90 percent or 100 percent, impacted by WX or inappropriate rertes. This level of disregard for safety is unacceptable.

Title: NON COMPLIANCE WITH FAA HANDBOOK 7210 PT 3 CHAPTER 19. OPERATIONAL ACCEPTABLE LEVEL OF TFC IS BEING EXCEEDED AT ZAU.

Narrative: THE FWA HI AND LOGAN SECTORS ROUTINELY EXCEED ACCEPTABLE OPERATIONAL LEVELS OF TFC DAILY, CTLRS WORK WELL ABOVE 100 PERCENT. THIS, ALONE, TAXES THE SYS, CAUSES CTLR FATIGUE AND UNSAFE SITS DEVELOP. SAFETY IS FURTHER COMPROMISED WHEN TMU INADEQUATELY MONITORS THESE SECTORS DURING WX WITHOUT A WORKABLE, RELIABLE MONITOR PROGRAM AND PROC. TMU DOES NOT EVEN KNOW WHEN FWA HI AND LOGAN ARE ABOVE 80 PERCENT, MUCH LESS 90 PERCENT OR 100 PERCENT, IMPACTED BY WX OR INAPPROPRIATE RERTES. THIS LEVEL OF DISREGARD FOR SAFETY IS UNACCEPTABLE.
