Localizer 17 Approaches
The 'S' stands for SOUTH controller, the dude in charge of the south of the two runways. At this point in time runway 12R/30L was closed for resurfacing and maintenance, and with winds out of the southeast, they had to use converging approaches: Localizer 17 and Localizer 22 approaches. This is extremely rare. You can see the stream of SOUTH arrivals coming in on the dashed line (heading ~170 magnetic, nearly south), which is the localizer for runway 17. Below the identifier is L17 (Localizer17 approach) and the type of aircraft (BE80 = Beechcraft Baron, CRJ2 = CRJ, SF34 = Saab).
