... 17 The objective of a BCA is to help an airport identify the stormwater project that provides the best value for the airport and the community it serves. When airports develop stormwater infrastructure project options, they should ensure that the project and its associated benefits and costs meet the organization's higher-level strategic goals and policies.

... Introduction to the Triple Bottom Line 19 Although initial capital costs are typically considered in project design, it is also important to consider ongoing O&M, decommissioning, and replacement expenses. An accounting of costs across the full life cycle of a project provides a more holistic view and a clearer comparison of design alternatives.

... 20 Benefit–Cost Analyses Guidebook for Airport Stormwater Safety Safety is a primary driver of all airport infrastructure, both for current operations and for managing issues that may arise in the future. Air and Water Quality Social and environmental attributes of stormwater projects can also affect the local and regional watersheds and communities.

... Introduction to the Triple Bottom Line 21 3.4.2 GHG Emissions and Material Management GHG impacts associated with capital construction projects are predominantly embodied in the building materials rather than in the transportation of materials. Building materials from energy or GHG-intensive manufacturing (e.g., cement or steel)
