ACRP Report 125: Balancing Airport Stormwater and Bird Hazard Management

Details

Abstract: ACRP Report 125, and the accompanying CRP-CD-159, Bird Strike Risk Analysis and Stormwater Management Decision Tool, provide valuable advice to help airports identify and evaluate stormwater management and bird mitigation practices. The tool uses FAA's familiar safety management system approach to assess potential risks to minimize hazards posed to aviation by birds attracted to bodies of water as well as to evaluate alternative stormwater management options. The report and tool can be used to foster interaction between airport industry practitioners and environmental regulators and help them reach implementable solutions that meet their respective objectives and missions.
