Guidebook for incorporating sustainability into traditional airport projects

the long version

This report describes sustainability, its benefits, and identifies different applications in traditional airport construction and everyday maintenance projects. An accompanying CD-ROM, CRP-CD-125, provides an Airport Sustainability Assessment Tool (ASAT) that complements the guidebook and can be used to: assist the user in identifying sustainability initiatives that might be most applicable to an airport project, given certain criteria that the user sets; obtain more information about specific strategies; and learn about sustainability initiatives that have been implemented at other airports through case studies. The guidebook and the CD-ROM will be useful to environmental managers, planners, and consultants interested in adopting sustainability strategies and initiatives into their next airport project--
