Evaluating Impacts of Sustainability Practices on Airport Operations and Maintenance: User’s Guide and Research Report
This report provides an evaluation process and cost–benefit tool to evaluate lifecycle costs of sustainability practices being considered by airport operators. The User’s Guide discusses the evaluation process (EP) and how to navigate the cost–benefit tool (CBT) and provides information from the case studies that were conducted in the development of the EP&CBT. The evaluation process and cost–benefit analysis tool is designed to evaluate sustainability practices in water conservation, energy conservation, waste management, consumables and materials, and alternative fuels. However, the tool can be used to evaluate any two practices, sustainable or otherwise. An instructional video that demonstrates how to use the evaluation process and cost–benefit tool using data from an example project (also provided with the tool) can be found on the accompanying CD-ROM (CRP-CD-149) and at the TRB website (http://www.trb.org/main/blurbs/170580.aspx).
