Airport Sustainability Database

Sustainable Aviation Guidance Alliance - SAGA
October 2009



Press Release - Airports Council International/North America


New Database, Report Provide Aviation Industry With First Comprehensive Guidelines on Airport Sustainability. Unique database is first comprehensive resource applicable to airports of all sizes

The Sustainability Database developed by SAGA consolidates various sources of airport-related sustainability practices into one document, streamlining the ability to search, evaluate, and then implement sustainable practices. The database provides the industry with a compendium of airport sustainability practices that can be searched and organized to correspond to the sustainability goals of airports of all types and sizes.

The database identifies sustainable airport practices, including policies, technologies, and strategies that may help a database user (e.g., an airport, contractor, or tenant) achieve sustainability goals. Whether an airport has a project planned, has just begun contemplating improvements, has already started construction, or desires to improve day-to-day operations or maintenance practices, the SAGA Sustainability Database is a valuable resource to aid in sustainability planning. The database can be tailored to the unique requirements of individual airports, but can also be shared by all airports to improve industry-wide knowledge of sustainable practices and to encourage an increased level of implementation.
