Airport Environment Strategy 2005

 

Sydney Metro Airport Bankstown is committed to implementing and maintaining environmental management initiatives that promote sound environmental management policies and practices in all airport activities. These initiatives are clearly demonstrated in the Environment Strategy that was approved by the Commonwealth Minister for Transport and Regional Services in March 2005.

The Environment Strategy has a 5 year timeframe and outlines management plans for specific ground-based environmental issues. The associated actions are designed to improve the overall environmental management of activities on Bankstown Airport. Objectives, targets and management actions have been developed for a broad range of environmental issues.

Sydney Metro Airport Bankstown has made good progress implementing our environmental objectives and management actions since the approval of the Strategy.

Our performance in implementing the Strategy is continuously monitored by our regulator, the Commonwealth Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government.
