Incorporating Environmental Justice and Equity Principles

ACRP Research Report 265: Incorporating Environmental Justice and Equity Principles: A Toolkit for Airports, from TRB's Airport Research Cooperative Program, provides resources for airport practitioners to review and amend their decision-making and planning processes using an equity lens. It is designed to enable airports to assess and respond to inequitable outcomes for the betterment of airport passengers, airport workforce, and airport-adjacent communities whose environments are affected by airport planning, development, and operations. Supplemental to the report are ACRP Web-Only Document 60: Structural Racism and Inequity in the U.S. Aviation Industry: Foundations and Implications, an appendix of browser-based tools to assist airport practitioners, and case studies with examples of equity-centered decision-making.
