Collaborative Environmental Management (CEM) as base for Green Airport Concept

The reduction of the negative impact of air transport on the environment has become a strategic issue of sustainable airport development. The biggest impact of air traffic on the environment can be seen in the airport area, which brings to a direct synergy of many stakeholders. Although the aircraft noise at the end of the 20th century was one of the main negative elements that was continuously monitored, today, besides noise, other parameters such as emissions, water pollution, soil pollution and electricity are being observed. In order to achieve significant results in terms of reducing the negative impact of air traffic on the environment, it was determined that only a joint collaboration of all the stakeholders can lead to significant environmental protection with an increasingly effective control of all operations in the air traffic. As the attempt was to create a system of environmentally friendly airport, the project named "Green Airport" was developed. The categorization of the airport as a "Green Airport" in an ecological sense was a recognition for the airport in its dedication to a higher level of environmental protection and responsibility to the local community, but it was also used as the basis for a successful marketing promotion. One of the guidelines for the realization in the view of the "Green Airport" status has been recognized in the implementation of Collaborative Environmental Management (CEM) into the operations of all the stakeholders related to the airport. Defining the parameters for the implementation of CEM, as well as phasing of its implementation and benefits, will be part of this paper.
