ATX X UNCOORD UNAUTHORIZED PENETRATION OF AIRSPACE. OPDEV.

Narrative

WHILE WORKING SDR AT RDU; I INADVERTENTLY ALLOWED ATX X TO ENTER ANOTHER CTLRS AIRSPACE WITHOUT A HDOF BEING COMPLETED. AFTER BECOMING AWARE OF THE SITUATION; I IMMEDIATELY COMPLETED A MANUAL HDOF TO THE EFR. NUMEROUS ITEMS CONTRIBUTED TO THIS EVENT TAKING PLACE. MY ENTIRE TIME ON POS WAS PUNCTUATED BY NUMEROUS INCIDENTS THAT WERE OUT OF THE ORDINARY. INITIALLY; A VFR DEP FAILED TO 'TAG UP' REQUIRING ADDITIONAL ATTN. WHEN HE DID TAG; THE ACFT HAD 'BUSTED' HIS ASSIGNED ALT. SUBSEQUENTLY; I WAS INSTRUCTED TO PUT MY ARRIVING TFC ON A WIDE DOWNWIND WHEN VIP MLT WAS INBOUND. HOWEVER; I WAS NOT TOLD WHEN OR WHERE MLT WAS. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO GET THE INFO FROM HIM; I PERSONALLY SCANNED THE ENTIRE RDU AIRSPACE TO LOCATE HIM. I FINALLY LOCATED HIM AFTER THE ABOVE INCIDENT OCCURRED. ADDITIONALLY; I HAD 3 ACFT WHOSE DATA TAGS INDICATED A CONFLICT ALERT. BEING REQUIRED BY FAA 7110.65G TO IMPLEMENT MERGING TARGET PROCS. MY PERFORMANCE WAS HAMPERED BECAUSE I WAS REQUIRED TO DIVERT MY ATTN FROM MY PRIMARY DUTIES TO SEARCH FOR MLT. I HAD ORIGINALLY TRIED TO PLACE THE INCIDENT ACFT IN A HDOF STATUS 10 MI FROM THE VIOLATED AIRSPACE BUT DEFERRED THAT ACTION BECAUSE OF CRITICISMS RECEIVED EARLIER FROM OTHER CTLRS FOR HANDING OFF ACFT TOO EARLY. EARLIER IN THE DAY; PRIOR TO COMING TO WORK; I DISCOVERED A PERSONAL MEDICAL SITUATION THAT CAUSED A HIGH LEVEL OF PERSONAL ANXIETY AND DISTRESS. RESULTS. DUE TO THE OPERATIONAL DEV THAT I HAD I HAVE BEEN DECERTIFIED ON ALL CTL POS AT RDU AND AM NOW UNDERGOING A PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT PLAN (PIP) CONSISTING OF STRINGENT RECERTIFICATION ELEMENTS. IF I FAIL TO SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE ANY OF THE SEGMENT OF THE PIP I AM SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF FAA 3330.30 AT THE DISCRETION OF THE AGENCY. THOSE OPTIONS ARE REASSIGNMENT TO A DIFFERENT FACILITY OR TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.
