Standards
moving towards a sustainable future
Corporate and Industry Standards
serve to give all focus areas
equal weighting for any size
sustainable initiative evaluation.
The industry standards were
chosen in an effort to have all
sustainable initiatives conform to
selected and existing recognized
standards. The corporate standards
serve to show how the initiatives
align with both local city policies
and Airport policies.
