Environmental Impacts of Airport Operations

Lutehrs article focuses on the importance of mind the environmental impacts of aerodrome operations at both local and international level.According to Lutehr, entirely by having senior line of productsport management develop such understanding would help in improving environmental quality and relations with airport neighborhood and stakeholders. Lutehr further argues that Airport management should ensure that various stakeholder groups argon involved in matters pertaining to airport pollution and therefore agree on ways of pollution get wind.The most important stakeholder groups include airport neighborhoods that set down affected by pollution and airlines whose activities lead to the pollution itself. Lutehr states water quality, noise, and air as the main forms of pollution emitted from airports and should therefore receive special and furthermost attention.The author has improved his arguments through in depth research. For instance, he has borrowed intemperately from EPA ( Environmental Protection Agency) regulations concerning pollution. Luther has supported his arguments at two levels. The first one regards what should be done during the planning (construction and working out) session and during the actual airport operation period.I all told agree with Lutehrs arguments considering the impact of airport pollution. Most importantly, Lutehr has pointed the importance of cerebrate of possible pollution even before airports are constructed or expansion projects are undertaken. In other words, feasibility studies of pollution should be undertaken when airport construction and expansion plans are underway.This would ensure inclusion of pollution control plans in airport operations. As a stakeholder in airport pollution, I find myself well convinced by Lutehrs arguments, especially considering the full(a) body of knowledge that supported his assertions. The author has indeed done a good job of convincing readers.ReferencesLutehr, L. (2007). Environment al Impacts of Airport Operations, Maintenance, and Expansion.
