WHAT IS SustainabilitY? is often defined as Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. - The Brundtland Commission, 1983 is characterized by COMMUNITY ENVIRONMENT AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT ECONOMY People, Planet, Profit 3 Pillars of OPERATIONS Triple-Bottom Line Federal Aviation Administration s Definition of Sustainable Airport Development The Hillsborough County Aviation Authority will define what sustainability means for TPA through this project.

Initiatives Candidate Topics Natural Systems, Biodiversity Water Conservation Water Quality Air Pollutants, Greenhouse Gases Build Green Waste Reduction Build Green Develop airport-specific guidance and manuals Develop construction and demolition policy Pursue certification under a green building rating system (such as LEED) Deconstruct rather than demolish Plan and design facilities for the potential of adaptive reuse Avoid construction waste generation through careful planning Natural Systems and Biodiversity Develop a wildlife management program to ensure safety of wildlife and aircraft Use goats to manage vegetation Air Pollutants and Greenhouse GasEs Develop a climate action plan Expand clean air fleets (consider service vehicles, shuttles, taxis, rental cars, GSE) Convert equipment and vehicles to biofuel Provide alternative fuel infrastructure (e.g., CNG station, electric vehicle charging station) Develop a hydrogen and electric battery swap fueling complex Provide gate power and pre-conditioned air infrastructure at aircraft gates Consolidate rental car operations Reduce vehicle idling Tow aircraft from gate to runway or encourage single-engine taxiing Water Conservation Consider feasibility of individual water meters for tenants Upgrade to high-efficiency appliances and low-flow fixtures Harvest rainwater for irrigation Install computer-controlled irrigation system Recycle greywater Water Quality Install green roofs Minimize development of impervious surfaces Waste Reduction Develop policies to reduce non-recyclable waste (such as compostable serviceware at concessions) Assess feasibility of pay-as-you-throw system for tenants Display prominent recycling receptacles Install water bottle filling stations Install liquid drain stations at security checkpoints Develop on-site materials recycling facility (MRF) Install on-site waste-to-energy facility (e.g., anaerobic digester) Install on-site composting facility Donate unused goods and items discarded at security checkpoints
Initiatives Candidate Topics Energy Driver of the Regional Economy ly Responsible Decisions Energy Recommission and optimize building systems Upgrade/retrofit equipment (such as Energy Star) Update lighting systems to compact fluorescent and induction lamps Use natural daylighting Consider individual electricity meters for tenants Install photovoltaic systems Use hydropower Driver of the Regional Economy Calculate economic benefit of airport to community Incorporate sustainability into marketing approach ly Responsible Decisions Employ a life-cycle approach to procurement Refine CIP process to incorporate sustainability metrics into project justification Develop green procurement guidelines (e.g., bulk purchasing, recycled materials, reduced packaging) Develop a green procurement program for tenants Maintain a database of environmentally friendly and locally available products and vendors Incorporate sustainability standards into airport s standard specifications, documents, and contracts Establish protocols for supply chain sustainability validation surveys and audits Maintain an asset management program Maintain a database of available materials and their location
