Sharon Mahony Environment Unit EUROCONTROL Collaborative Environmental Management (CEM) & Local Authorities: from theory to practice ARC 11th June 2015 OSLO Sharon Mahony Environment Unit The European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation

What does it look like? ANSPs, Airport Operators and Aircraft Operators already invest significant effort in dealing with the environmental impacts resulting from their combined operations at and around airports. In general these challenges cover noise and emissions management.   This EUROCONTROL Specification for Collaborative Environmental Management (CEM) supports these core operational stakeholders in their efforts. It does this by proposing a generic, high level, pragmatic protocol as a framework for addressing, through cooperation, both current and future environmental challenges at and around airports associated with air traffic and airport operations. In addition, the CEM protocol can support stakeholders in respect of contributing to the realisation of the Single European Sky (SES) objective on the sustainable development of the air transport system and improving the overall performance of air traffic management (ATM) and air navigation services (ANS) for air traffic in Europe, with a view to meeting the requirements of all airspace users. The proposed collaborative protocol described in this Specification involves all core operational stakeholders meeting together and facilitating common awareness and understanding of the interdependencies and constraints facing each other’s business. This will facilitate the development of shared environmental solutions, on which they will then collaborate in joint planning and implementation. In addition, the CEM approach facilitates a robust and transparent dialogue that benefits relations with National Regulators, local and regional authorities, land-use planning authorities, local communities (including Residents’ Associations) and local businesses. Other examples of topics that can be addressed by CEM are: commitment to industry-led voluntary environmental impact reduction schemes; enhanced dialogue; and improvement in relations with external stakeholders. EUROCONTROL Specifications have a voluntary status and are developed to support EUROCONTROL Member States and stakeholders. This specification proposes a possible means of compliance to SES and environment related regulations. Regulation EC No 549/2004 as amended by Regulation EC 1070/2009 Art.1 Objective and scope 1. Non – exhaustive list and depends on local culture and circumstances

CEM SPECIFICATION Specification published 12/9/2014 A collaborative approach to managing environmental impacts… Specification published 12/9/2014 www.eurocontrol.int/articles/collaborative-environmental-management-cem-specification Specification is a voluntary document – however, its adoption shows that the CEM Group are following guidance/best practise agreed at a EUROPEAN Level so gives higher credibility to external stakeholders or towards local community groups etc. when dealing with environmental challenges, Connects internal stakeholders AO Airlines ANSP

Public Consultation Collaborative process……….. Well received across a range of stakeholders including Regulators and ANSPs Positive comments indicate fit for purpose content To be used for the “wider sustainable development of the airport in general” Audience is not only limited to known stakeholders All replies are published on the website along with EUROCONTROL’s response. Names of Organisations are published not the individual. Replies can be anonymous CANSO Contribution DOUG STOLL & DAVID KNORR

Facilitate compliance with existing and future legislation: the Directive 2002/30/EC* of 26th March 2002 on the establishment of rules and procedures with regard to the introduction of noise-related operating restrictions at Community airports the Directive 2002/49/EC** of 25th June 2002 relating to the assessment and management of environmental noise; and the Directive 2008/50/EC of 21st May 2008 on ambient air quality and cleaner air for Europe   Will be repealed with effect from 13 June 2016 by Regulation (EU) No 598/2014 **now under review DO Spec Stakeholder Consultation Workshop, 27 Sept 2012 6

Facilitate compliance with SES legislation: the Essential Requirements of the SES Interoperability Regulations, in particular the: ‘sustainability and effectiveness of air navigation services’ and; the ‘need to minimise environmental impact in accordance with Community legislation’ In the future it may provide support in achieving any applicable SES environmental-related performance targets that may be adopted at airport level  Re last bullet UK CAA did mention that we should not overstate the compliance aspect of the SPEC but emphasise airport development in general plus links to making a ‘collaborative’ environmental impact assessment as and when required, So ok to keep in for me.

CEM PROTOCOL Core of the specification (chapter 7) Sets out the requirements and recommend practices to implement CEM Working Arrangements Has been published in a separate ‘check list’ format Connects internal stakeholders AO Airlines ANSP Check list is in response to feedback from operational stakeholders Short & simple to use Check list on the web page in a downloadable PDF Check list can be used as a benchmark against which to measure/check existing working arrangements Check list electronic version via a portal is in development

Benefits of the CEM Specification A harmonised approach agreed at a European level to tackle environmental impacts at the local level A framework to support understanding and awareness of environmental/operational interdependencies among internal core operational stakeholders* A focus to identify the root causes of common environmental impacts/risks and facilitate solutions A Working Arrangement to facilitate a robust and transparent dialogue that can harmonise relations with authorities and engagement with local communities and businesses *Airport Operator, ANSP, Aircraft Operators
