23 The facilities identified for case study as part of this research represent documented (or documentable) decision-making and evaluation processes, along with quantified, measur- able, or anticipated results/benefits of an environmental, financial, and/or social nature. All outcomes were considered to be valuable information to other airports, regardless of whether they were desired, anticipated, unexpected, successful, or unsuccessful. The fact that a facility incorporated a sustainable practice and then has results and “lessons learned” to share with others has deemed it favorable for consideration as a case study. Airports selected for case study include domestic and international, large and mid-size com- mercial service airports, and general aviation airports. Non-airport facilities include those with initiatives directly applicable to airports. Full case study results can be accessed through the accompanying ASAT. 6.1 List of Facilities The following is an alphabetical list of facilities selected for case study: Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN) Aspen/Pitkin County Airport (ASE) Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA) Chicago Department of Transportation (CDOT) Denver International Airport (DEN) Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) Ithaca Tompkins Regional Airport (ITH) Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) Oakland International Airport (OAK) Paulding Northwest Airport (PUJ) Portland International Jetport (PWM) Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) San Francisco International Airport (SFO) Weber Academic Center at Judson University (WAC) Harold Washington Social Security Building (WHS) Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) 6.2 List of Initiatives The sustainable initiatives in place at the airports and other facilities selected for case study cover a broad spectrum of practices.
