Airports worldwide are setting aggressive zero- or low-emissions targets. To meet these targets, airports are deploying new strategies, adopting innovative financing mechanisms, and harnessing the collective influence of voluntary emissions and reporting programs. In tandem, new and affordable zero- or low-emissions technologies are rapidly becoming available at airports. The TRB Airport Cooperative Research Program's ACRP Research Report 220: Guidebook for Developing a Zero- or Low-Emissions Roadmap at Airports covers all steps of roadmap development, from start to finish, using conceptual diagrams, examples, best practices, and links to external tools and resources. While the main focus of this Guidebook is airport-controlled greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, it provides discussion about airport-influenced emissions from airlines, concessionaires, and passengers. Whereas other guidebooks and reference material provide airports with information on emissions mitigation and management (for example, the Federal Aviation Administration's Airport Carbon Emissions Reduction, ACRP Report 11: Guidebook on Preparing Airport Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventories, and the Airport Council International's Guidance Manual: Airport Greenhouse Gas Emissions Management), this Guidebook articulates steps for creating an airport-specific emissions roadmap.

"TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Report 84: Guidebook for Preparing Airport Emissions Inventories for State Implementation Plans is designed to assist in the preparation of airport emissions inventory component of a State Implementation Plan. The Guidebook offers a basic, intermediate, and advanced approach for preparation of an airport emissions inventory. Each approach is progressively more complex, requiring increasingly detailed input data that generates greater airport specificity and accuracy. The choice of a particular approach is up to the user as a function of the level of response appropriate to a specific airport, the demands of the facility and the surrounding community, and data availability. A CD-ROM, which is included with the print version of the report, contains an Airport Emissions Estimator Tool that applies to the basic approach. In addition, the CD-ROM includes the appendixes that accompany ACRP Report 84 as well as other project-specific material."--Publisher's description.

Fully revised and updated to consider recent developments in the industry, the sixth edition of Managing Airports: An International Perspective provides comprehensive and cutting-edge insight into the processes behind running a successful airport. Logically structured and embellished with illustrative diagrams and tables throughout, this edition approaches management topics from a strategic and commercial perspective and provides an innovative and accessible understanding of how modern-day airports are operated. Containing a plethora of global case studies covering a range of different airports from many different parts of the world, the book maintains a balance between coverage of key principles and practice of airport management, together with thorough consideration of current and topical issues. This edition has been updated to include: • New content on the significant economic and operational impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global air transport industry, technological and digital advances, the changing air transport environment, airline developments, net zero goals and evolving markets. • Updated and expanded content on sustainability development and airports’ adoption of sustainable development goals, changes in airline business models, airport digital marketing, the passenger biometric airport journey and airport diversification strategies. • New and updated international case studies to show recent issues and theory in practice. International and multidisciplinary in approach, this edition is a vital resource for students, lecturers and researchers of transport and tourism, and practitioners within the air transport industry.

In 2003, Congress established a program to reduce airport ground emissions at airports in areas failing to meet or maintain air quality standards. The FAA administers the Voluntary Airport Low Emissions (VALE) Program and oversees the program's two sources of funding. Participating airports also receive credits for the emission reductions achieved through VALE projects in accordance with the law and guidance. Airports can use these credits to offset emissions resulting from development projects to comply with federal requirements. This report determines: (1) how the VALE program has been implemented, incl. airport participation levels, types of projects, and program expenditures; and (2) the outcomes attributable to the VALE program.

ACRP Research Report 180 provides guidance with regard to accounting for ground access vehicle (GAV) activity in airport emissions studies. This guidance will be of particular interest to airport environmental and transportation planners, air quality modelers, and regulatory agencies desiring clarity and consistency with regard to determining data needs based on study objectives and for collecting the data in an accurate, cost-effective manner.

TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Report 147: Climate Change Adaptation Planning: Risk Assessment for Airports provides guidance for practitioners to understand the specific impacts climate change may have on their airports. The guidebook may help publishers develop adaptation actions and incorporate those actions into the airport's planning processes. Accompanying the guidebook, an electronic assessment tool called Airport Climate Risk Operational Screening (ACROS) is enclosed as a CD-ROM. The tool uses a formula to compute an estimated level of risk for assets and operations at the airport. These airport-specific risks are then ranked to provide an enterripse-level estimate of the relative risk posed by each asset and operation.
