Posted: 2:15 PM- Salt Lake International Airport is making some security changes in the wake of that foiled terror plot at New York's JFK International Airport.

KSL News reports that like many airports, Salt Lake International also has a pipeline from a nearby refinery that supplies storage tanks here; larger planes are fueled at the gate through other pipelines.

But Airport Operations Director Randall Berg says unlike JFK, the system here is simpler and perhaps easier to protect.

Still, KSL says the airport has made changes since the weekend, including more police patrols.
