Sustainable communities: The Atlanta Airport EcoDistrict

Sustainable practices in asset management are becoming new business requirements. This paper shows how an airport community consisting of the airport operator, airlines, concession operators and other organisations doing business at the airport have come together to work in concert to improve sustainability at the world’s busiest airport, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. This community, the Airport EcoDistrict ATL Community, is illustrated by examining the development and operation of one of the committees of the EcoDistrict — the Utilities Committee. Through policy development, third party consultation and identification and development of other resources, the committee is empowering its members to develop and implement sustainable energy and water efficiency improvement measures.
