ENV02 — Airport Collaborative Environmental Management

Implement or identify existing formal working partnership arrangements between ANSP, Airport and Aircraft Operators at individual airports to address and assess the environmental challenges at and around the vicinity of the airport. These challenges can be a significant constraining factor to efficient and sustainable operations.

Topics include but are not limited to:
• minimising noise and atmospheric emissions in particular CO2 and NOx (including fuel burn);
• introduction of new operational changes such as airspace design to include new entrants such as UAM, Hybrid and or hydrogen
aircraft, different approach or departure procedures including CDO/CCO and PBN implementation, new airport infrastructure
• Compliance with airport-related legislation and environmental certification requirements
• Management of aircraft and airfield de-icing resulting from combined aircraft operations at the terminal airspace and ground.
• Adaptation to Climate Change (risk to infrastructure, de-icing strategies, water);
• Facilitate implementation and uptake of Sustainable Aviation Fuels;
• Contribute to robust community engagement dialogue and relations with local authorities.

CEM working arrangements will enable a greater understanding and awareness of interdependencies and facilitate jointly agreed solutions for sustainable environmental operational performance improvements that can benefit joint operations as well as local community engagement and relationships with local authorities.

NOTE FOR MILITARY AUTHORITIES: It is the responsibility of each military authority to review this Objective IN ITS ENTIRETY and address each of the SLoAs that the military authority considers RELEVANT for itself. This has to be done on top and above of the review of "MIL" SLoAs which identify actions EXCLUSIVE to military authorities.

NOTE: A CEM Online tool is available at the link below with the purpose of providing a common platform to assist key operational stakeholders at airports in setting up a CEM Working Arrangement and to demonstrate compliance with the CEM Specification's Requirements:

Expected Performance Benefits

Safety
-
Capacity
Airports may see a gain in capacity if noise restrictions are lowered
Operational efficiency
Reduction of noise, fuel burn and CO2. Contributing to cost and Noise/CO2 savings for airlines and airports. Airports may see a gain in capacity if noise restrictions are lowered.
Cost efficiency
-
Environment
Reduction of fuel use, noise, emissions and de-icing water pollution resulting from a structured collaborative approach that jointly identifies effective sustainable operational solutions for implementation and monitoring.
