As major users of diverse goods and services, airport operators have the opportunity to drive environmental sustainability performance improvements at airports through the integration of new language in contracts. FAA and national, state, and local legislation encourage and require airport operators to operate and manage their airports in an environmentally sound way. Having evolved over the decades, airport environmental management today has moved beyond compliance into proactive initiatives that not only mitigate risks to the environment but also reduce operating costs. Throughout this synthesis this progressive approach to environmental management, driven largely by the publics growing awareness of global environmental and societal constraints, along with demand from airports neighboring communities, is referred to as environmental sustainability. This synthesis provides airports with effective practices and tools to integrate environmental sustainability into their contracts.
