Environment Management and Building Control at Airports

Environment Management
The Commonwealth has put in place an integrated regime to protect the environment at leased Federal airports. While the airport operator will have the main responsibility of protecting the environment under this approach everyone operating or working at the airport needs to be aware of their environmental obligations.

Building Control
Building and construction activities at leased Federal airports must be approved by the Airport Building Controller (ABC). The ABC is appointed under Commonwealth law to administer the airport building control regime. The Airport-Lessee Company (ALC) must also approve the activity from a planning and airport operational perspective.
