Air Quality
LeighFisher helps airport management reach creative solutions to complex air quality issues. We are expert users of the full array of advanced air pollution modeling tools, enabling us to quickly quantify the emissions from specific airport sources, develop emissions inventories, and project pollutant concentrations.
Noise
Noise management requires more than accurately assessing noise exposure. Our clients must strategically balance community concerns with airport growth objectives. LeighFisher has extensive experience in the preparation of noise studies. We develop unique approaches that use our industry-leading expertise in airspace analysis, land use planning, and operational assessments to yield insights that help in understanding and mitigating noise issues.
Regulatory Compliance
Airport operators around the world face an array of environmental regulations, which, if not strategically managed, can delay capital project implementation and adversely affect community relations and the image of the airport. LeighFisher supports airport operators in the compliance with environmental regulations. This support typically involves assisting with strategic environmental reviews, advising on permit compliance strategies, and providing technical support and advocacy for an airport operator during the development of local environmental plans.
Sustainability
LeighFisher seeks to drive financial growth for our clients through responsible management. We address the external impacts of operating and developing an airport on the environment, community, and economy, and develop robust internal communication and change management strategies to help airport management integrate sustainability into their core business.
Energy Strategy
Energy supply volatility and high energy prices are universal concerns for consumers in the global market. In general, countries and businesses that rely heavily on oil are more affected by price shocks and rising costs resulting from the various factors influencing global oil supply, such as political unrest and environmental accidents.
Due Diligence
Private companies are susceptible to exposure on the cost and liabilities associated with environmental risks when undertaking mergers, acquisitions and divestments. Our international experience in undertaking environmental due diligence during mergers, acquisitions and divestments across many sectors has assisted many clients in successfully growing their business in a sustainable and informed way.
Risk Assessment
All companies are susceptible to exposure on the cost and liabilities of environmental risk, particularly with the ever changing and on-going developments in environmental legislation, policy and best practice guidance. LeighFisher is experienced in assessing and measuring environmental risk and we work closely with our clients to mitigate identified risks.
Renewables
Climate change concerns and high oil prices, along with increasing government support, are driving the requirement for renewable energy standards and incentives for airport operators to invest in renewable energy technology.
