OUR ACTIONS

Preserving water and soil Reducing our drinking water consumption We are working on improving water management systems at our airports, for example by replacing meters and implementing remote reading. These monitoring tools make it possible to better control consumption and to detect leaks very quickly. Our airports in Île-de- France, Mauritius, Hyderabad and Liège are also putting in place a rainwater recovery system to supply toilets and for watering purposes. 1

INDIA Hyderabad optimises water management —

The airport in Hyderabad has put in place a global water control strategy: rainwater recovery, waste water recycling, automation of the watering network, recovery of steam produced by the use of cooling, spreading of sewage sludge on agricultural land, etc. This strategy resulted in this airport receiving the Green Airports Recognition in 2019 and 2020.

Limiting soil artificialisation

All over the world, the development of our airports aims to limit as much as possible the artificialisation and impermeabilisation of soils, in order to maintain infiltration areas and preserve biodiversity.

laboratory allows us to monitor the quality of rainwater and waste water released into the public sewerage networks for our Paris airports. Paris-Orly has a filter marsh whose 12 basins each measuring 500 m 2 collect rainwater as well as water loaded into de-icing products. These experiments may be duplicated at our other airports as required.

environmental monitoring of soil quality, in accordance with the national methodology for managing contaminated sites and soils at the Paris airports. It verifies whether the condition of the soil is compatible with its present or future use and recommends, where appropriate, the necessary treatments. It also produces a map of areas at risk of pollution.

And what about tomorrow?

In 2021, we want to make the management of resources and the circular economy major issues for our airports, in the same way as the climate and biodiversity. To this end, we must continue our efforts to promote the reduction of water consumption and waste management. We must also mobilise passengers by raising their awareness of the importance of sorting waste. Finally, we want to promote sober construction in materials by going further in using re-use materials.
