C-12 Guidebook for Developing a Comprehensive Renewable Resources Strategy Introduction What is a Renewable Resource? A Renewable Resource is a resource that can be replenished over a meaningful timescale in terms of a human lifespan. We may think of it as any natural resource that can replenish itself. It is a substance of economic value that can be replaced or replenished in the same or less amount of time as it takes to draw the supply down. Some renewable resources have essentially an endless supply, such as solar energy, wind energy and geothermal pressure, while other resources are considered renewable even though some time or effort must go into their renewal, such as wood, biofuels or leather. Most precious metals may be considered renewable as well; even though they are not naturally replaced, they are not destroyed during their extraction and use and can be recycled. Renewable resources can be found in more than just electricity, but also in categories including, food, heating, fuels, building materials, and waste management. For example, consider an airport that installs a biomass boiler to provide heating for a terminal building and reduce the use of heating oil. The airport uses a renewable resource (biofuel) to provide utility (heating) to airport customers, tenants, and staff. Our plan will focus on renewable resources that provide airport stakeholders with equal or greater value than that offered by non-renewable resources. We will prioritize renewable resources that offset a non-renewable resource, reduce costs and improve the customer experience. Implementing a Strategy based on Renewable Resources is necessary to maintain the economic viability of the Airport and the Region as a whole. It directly supports our Sustainability Master Plan and is our guide to improving our Operations while reducing our Environmental Impact. Dayton International Airport Prairie Project 3

C-20 Guidebook for Developing a Comprehensive Renewable Resources Strategy Approval Process for Renewable Resource Projects When developing new projects, please consult the table above for relevant parties to inform. In addition, note the prioritization and funding approval requirements below. Setting Priorities The approval process for renewable resources projects will be based on the process outlined in the Sustainability Playbook developed with the Airport’s Sustainability Master Plan. Although the process will vary based on the scale of the effort, in general, it will follow the prioritization Matrix outlined on page 6 of the Playbook. For each renewable resource project, locate the project on the matrix below based on its positive effect on operations, reduced environmental impact, cost to implement and cost to maintain. The initiatives with the highest positive effect with the lowest cost will be considered to be the highest priority. Initiatives which fall toward the center of the graph are also prioritized in the same way, however additional factors such as Return on Investment, number of operational efficiencies, and level of staffing involvement will also be considered more heavily in the prioritization process. 11 X-Y Graph (Cost vs. Effectiveness) for evaluating 2- part score

Pilot Airport Renewable Resources Strategies C-21 Funding All projects must be addressed in the Operating or Capital Improvement Budgets of the Department of Aviation. The Finance Manager can advise on the available sources of funds and their allowable uses. In general, if a project scores as a high priority and has been assigned a budget, the project can be paid for in several ways: For projects costing $500 or less and approved by Department Manager and Finance Manager, the project may be paid for by Purchasing Card (credit card). For projects costing $500.01-$2,500 and approved by Department Manager and Finance Manager, the project manager may elect to establish a Purchase Order (PO) to pay for the project. For projects costing more than $2,500 and less than $10,000, a PO is required. PO’s require the approval and signature of the Department Manager and Director of Aviation. Projects costing greater than $10,000 also require presentation and approval by the City of Dayton Commission. Relationship to Other Documents This strategy is part of the overall strategic planning process for the airport and interacts with or supplements several other important documents. In developing, updating, and executing this strategy the airport will consider implications on the following documents. Airport Layout Plan The ALP is the fundamental airport planning tool for defining existing conditions and identifying future opportunities. The FAA requires an approved ALP and all requests for funding presented to the FAA must be consistent with the ALP before receiving authorization. In October 2013, the FAA issued Standard Operating Procedure 2.00, Standard Procedure for FAA Review and Approval of Airport Layout Plans to provide guidance to sponsors on ALPs. The FAA has also released Advisory Circular (AC) 150/5070-6B, which provides a variety of information useful in developing and refining ALPs. As detailed in FAA guidance to airport sponsors, an ALP must show: • Boundaries and proposed additions to all areas owned or controlled by the sponsor for airport purposes; • The location and nature of existing and proposed airport facilities and structures; and 12

C-22 Guidebook for Developing a Comprehensive Renewable Resources Strategy • The location on the airport property of existing and proposed non-aviation areas and improvements thereon. Standard Operating Procedure 2.00 specifies the information required in an ALP submission. Such required information includes detailed engineering plans of the airport showing existing and future conditions, as well as a narrative description of proposed projects, aircraft activity forecasts to justify future projects, and a general plan for funding. All federally-obligated airports are required under grant assurances (i.e., the legal contract between airport operators and the FAA) to “keep the ALP up-to-date at all times.” An ALP requires updating if it fails to: • Adequately provide for future needs; • Conform with current airport design standards; • Accurately reflect existing features; or • Reflect airport and critical land use changes that may affect the navigable airspace or the ability of the airport to expand. In practice, an ALP that has not been updated for several years is usually deficient in all four respects. Because every airport is different, and its progress toward development varies by size, geography, and market forces, the FAA does not specify when an ALP is out-of-date. Before the ALP can be the blueprint for the airport development program, the FAA must formally approve it. ALP approval includes evaluation of compliance by the FAA under an 13

Pilot Airport Renewable Resources Strategies C-23 Airspace Review and NEPA. Once approved, any project identified on the ALP is eligible for federal funding from the FAA. The AIP Handbook states that "a current ALP that depicts the proposed project and that has FAA approval from the standpoint of safety, utility, and efficiency of the airport shall be required before a development project is approved” (FAA 2014). The ALP may be updated separately from a larger planning process for many reasons, including the need to address a new and unanticipated development opportunity. However, any time an airport undertakes a Master Plan prepared consistent with FAA guidance, the final product must include an updated ALP. Airports can designate areas of airfield on the ALP for renewable resource uses. Typically, such designations are supported by other studies such as those associated with a Master Plan, investigations to confirm a project’s compatibility, and an understanding of technical and financial feasibility. Renewable resource projects are classified as non-aeronautical uses, so if an airport intends to situate such a project in an area designated for aeronautical uses, it will need to request a change in usage designation from aeronautical to non-aeronautical. An airport can update the ALP to include renewable resources as part of long-term planning or to fulfill a condition of an individual project’s approval. In either case, the FAA will ensure that the project ultimately is consistent with the airport’s long-term interests in supporting aviation activities. Renewable resource projects that impact land owned by the airport must be coordinated with the Airport Layout Plan (ALP). Examples may include ground mounted PV arrays, crop planting, or installations requiring new buildings or changes in land use. The ALP is overseen by Airport Engineering and the latest version can be found on the Aviation Server: Drawings\DAY\ALP Updates 2018. Terminal Master Plan Much as the Airport Master Plan covers general long-term planning for the airport, the Terminal Master Plan governs the planned activities, upgrades, and development of the terminal and related facilities. Renewable resource activities that take place in or on the terminal must be coordinated with the Terminal Master Plan. Examples could include roof-mounted solar PV systems, changes to the recycling program, new signage, or energy efficiency measures. The Terminal Master Plan is overseen by Airport Engineering and the latest version can be found on the Aviation Server: Drawings\Terminal Master Plan. 14

C-24 Guidebook for Developing a Comprehensive Renewable Resources Strategy Airport Master Plan An airport Master Plan, which may include the ALP process, is a comprehensive study of an airport. It describes existing conditions, forecasts future aviation activity, and presents short-, medium-, and long-term development plans to meet the forecasted demand. Given the uncertainty in forecasting future economic activity, airport Master Plans are "living" documents that require regular updating to reflect changing conditions. To maximize its usefulness to the airport managers, the Master Plan goals should include: • Graphical representations of existing airport features, future airport development, and anticipated land use; • A realistic schedule for implementation of the proposed development; • An appropriate financial plan to support the development; • Plan validation through investigation of concepts and alternatives on technical, economic, and environmental grounds; • A public presentation component that adequately addresses all relevant issues and satisfies local, state, and federal regulations; and • A framework for a continuous planning process. Advisory Circular (AC) AC 150/5070-6B helps airports prepare useful Master Plans; however, the FAA does not approve or endorse all aspects of the Master Plan. The FAA only approves 15

Pilot Airport Renewable Resources Strategies C-25 forecasts, selection of critical aircraft, and the ALP. It is from these elements that the FAA determines eligibility of AIP funding for proposed development. The Master Plan provides an overview of several issues that may arise during project development, including consistency with the ALP, environmental issues, and funding. Once projects proceed with development, they must address each issue in detail before finalizing design and development and undertaking construction. The airport’s Renewable Resources Strategy can be addressed in detail in a Master Plan under sections related to environment, energy, and sustainability. The airport may also present a broad vision of sustainability in the Master Plan or focus on sustainability and energy issues in separate plans (as discussed below). Regardless of how the airport addresses renewable resource planning, it will need to understand the opportunities associated with renewable resources and how those opportunities meet the airport’s interest in the triple bottom line of economic, environmental, and social benefits. The Airport Master Plan is overseen by Airport Engineering and the latest version can be found on the Aviation Server: Drawings\DAY. Airport Capital Improvement Program The FAA maintains a national Airports Capital Improvement Plan (ACIP) to identify and prioritize critical airport development necessary to support the National Airspace System. The ACIP also serves as the basis for distributing annual FAA grant funds under the AIP. The FAA applies a rigorous process with input from regional offices and airport sponsors to maximize contributions from a broad array of decision-makers. FAA guidance associated with the ACIP is provided in the ACIP Order (FAA Order 5100.39A). The projects in the ACIP support the following FAA goals: • Ensure that the air transport of people, services, and goods is provided in a safe and secure environment; • Preserve and upgrade the existing airport system to enable increased capacity as well as to ensure reliable and efficient use of existing capacity; • Improve the compatibility of airports with the surrounding communities; and • Provide the majority of the American public with sufficient airport access. Each year, FAA regional and airport district offices prepare regional ACIPs based on the previous years’ plan. The ACIP identifies and prioritizes projects for funding over a ten-year period and is updated annually. In preparing the ACIP, FAA regional staff consider the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS) and other guidance from the FAA national office. It also relies on contributions from airport sponsors, state aviation agencies, and aviation organizations, including airport-prepared ACIPs and the planning studies that support them. 16

C-26 Guidebook for Developing a Comprehensive Renewable Resources Strategy Regional offices then send the ACIP to FAA headquarters for a detailed national review. The national review ensures that the regional plans are consistent with FAA agency goals and policies, and that the national plan covers agency priorities for the upcoming year. It also integrates proposals for submission for national program funding and determines which projects require a benefit-cost analysis (BCA). The result is a preliminary list or “candidate list” of projects to be considered for discretionary funding that is returned to the regional offices for review. Should the regions seek to add projects to the candidate list, they must show how the project meets one or more of the following objectives: • Enhance safety or security; • Enhance system capacity; • Enhance environment; • Enhance access to the airport system; or • Support state and local plans. Once the following fiscal year appropriation is enacted by Congress, the FAA national office forwards allocations to each region, and the regional office develops recommended funding plans with projects identified and forwards the list to FAA headquarters for approval. Projects that are included in the candidate list and receive funding approval from the regional office will be considered as priority projects to receive converted “carryover” funding. Projects that do not receive funding must be revalidated for need and either placed in the NPIAS-ACIP for consideration in a future year, or deleted from the database. CIPs typically address significant capital expenditures such as buildings, runways, roadways and other infrastructure, and land. Most renewable resource projects are not identified as standalone projects on the CIP, but are included as components of other larger projects. There are exceptions, including projects funded by the FAA’s authority under the Voluntary Airport Low Emission (VALE) Program and the Section 512 Energy Program. Each of these authorization methods provides a separate avenue for airports to apply for AIP funding for emission reduction and energy efficiency projects. The CIP process and the financial analyses associated with ALP and Master Plan are all important for determining potential funding sources for all airport projects. For renewable resource projects, funding sources may include alternative financial structures, such as private-public partnerships, which can enable airports to join forces with executives from the private sector to develop non-aviation projects. In general, projects associated with Planning and Capital, exceeding $10,000 in value, are coordinated with the ACIP process. That process is led by the Aviation Director’s Office and the latest version of the ACIP can be found on the Aviation Server: Drawings\2018 CIP. 17

Pilot Airport Renewable Resources Strategies C-27 Sustainability Master Plan In 2010, the FAA began issuing grant funding to airports to develop sustainability plans under its Sustainable Master Plan Pilot Program. The purpose of the pilot program was to help airports identify sustainability objectives and measures to minimize environmental impacts, increase operational efficiency, and provide benefits to local communities. In support of this objective, the FAA issued its Interim Guidance for FAA's Sustainable Master Plan Pilot Program in May 2010, followed by FAA Lessons Learned from Sustainable Master Plan Pilot Program in December 2012. The pilot program initially awarded funding to 12 airports to help them integrate sustainability into their long-term Master Planning. Some of the recipient airports developed standalone SMPs separately from their traditional airport Master Planning process, and others incorporated SMPs into their general airport Master Plans. As a separate document from the Master Plan, the SMP requires the preparation of more background information both on the airport and on sustainability, whereas the SMP can be included as a Chapter or Appendix to the Master Plan and utilize the other Chapters as background and context. In both cases, the FAA's objective was to help airports to develop a framework for a sustainability plan and a process for preparation and implementation. The initial plans included topics associated with energy and waste that most directly correlate with renewable resources. However, in general, reducing consumption was prioritized over increasing the use of renewables. Additionally, airports may incorporate “green” or environmental purchasing practices into their sustainability plans. This means that the airport commits to buying goods and services that improve public health and safety, reduce pollution, and conserve natural resources. In fact, Seattle-Tacoma Airport adopted an Environmental Purchasing Policy in 2009 and is dedicated to having these environmental considerations factor into the purchasing practice equally with other factors like price, availability, and performance. DAY has a robust SMP developed, which includes a variety of useful information relevant to developing renewable resource projects. The current SMP can be found on the Aviation Server: Public\Sustainability\Sustainability Master Plan, and should be consulted during the early planning phase for any new renewable resources project. Questions on the SMP should be directed to: Airport Environmental 18

C-28 Guidebook for Developing a Comprehensive Renewable Resources Strategy Sustainability Design and Construction Standards For new construction and major renovation, staff and consultants should review and follow the requirements of the Sustainable Design and Construction Standards. This document outlines design requirements, materials to be used, and other key information governing onsite construction practices. When planning renewable resource projects that require such construction, planners reference these standards as a requirement in bid specifications and similar documents. This document is maintained by Airport Engineering and the latest version can be found on the Aviation Server: Public\Sustainability\Sustainable Design and Construction Standards. Annual Budget The airport budget is the annual operating budget for the airport, focusing on non-capital costs and projects. As described above, projects requiring funding must be included in the annual budget, which is prepared beginning in August of each year for the following year. The section on Funding, above, provides more specific requirements related to budget thresholds. Updating the Strategy The Dayton International Airport Renewable Resource Strategy will be updated annually. As the Airport Statistics and sustainability metrics are updated, this strategy will be reviewed for its impact on them. Stakeholder feedback Feedback from monthly meetings and evaluations from proposed ideas will also be reviewed as part of the process. Management will review the consolidated stakeholder feedback from monthly meetings, proposed projects and existing projects and incorporate that feedback into the strategy as appropriate. 19

TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Research Report 197: Guidebook for Developing a Comprehensive Renewable Resources Strategy highlights renewable energy sources, includes steps for developing a renewable energy strategy, and identifies metrics for measuring success. The report also highlights real-world examples of successful renewable resource projects at airports.

Renewable resources to reduce emissions from airports and climate impacts have been discussed for several years. Technological advancements have allowed organizations, specifically airports, to begin integrating renewable resources into their overall energy plans. In an effort to address climate impacts and achieve neutral carbon growth by 2020, a coalition of aviation stakeholders has adopted emission reduction targets.

Airports are also seeking to become energy independent, and using renewable resources as a strategy to get there. Further, as the costs for conventional energy sources increases, renewable resources become more financially attractive. Those airports who have implemented renewable resources have been able to do so at minimal cost.

While a business case can be made for the integration of any one particular renewable resource, an airport can be more strategic by adopting an overall renewable resource strategy. The renewable resources strategy can then become an input to other airport planning documents (e.g., airport master plan, strategic plan). The success of developing the plan as well as implementation require all internal and external stakeholders are involved in the process.
