To publish a 2010 carbon footprint<br />
in the 2010 Corporate Responsibility<br />
Report, together with a detailed <strong>report</strong> of<br />
activities we have undertaken to reduce<br />
emissions at the airport<br />
2010 carbon footprint was 9% lower than in<br />
2009. The reduction in flights and passenger<br />
numbers has contributed partly to this. Direct<br />
emissions were 2.6% lower than 2009<br />
We will continue to challenge our<br />
airline partners to maintain agreed track<br />
keeping standards at <strong>London</strong> <strong>Stansted</strong><br />
98.4% of flights on track during 2010 (vs<br />
98.2% in 2009). All routes improved except<br />
Clacton departure from Runway 22. Specific<br />
trials been carried out to improve track keeping<br />
performance on the Clacton route<br />
Noise<br />
We will start to implement measures and<br />
commitments as detailed in our Noise<br />
Action Plan, once formally adopted<br />
by DEFRA, and make public the final<br />
approved version of the Plan<br />
<strong>Airport</strong> Noise Action Plan formally approved by<br />
UK government 19th May 2011.<br />
STAL increased departure noise infringement<br />
fines along with introducing improved noise<br />
complaint handling policies in 2010<br />
We will review our communications<br />
material and update our noise website<br />
Our ‘web track’ system has been upgraded<br />
in 2010<br />
Key to performance results:<br />
Target not achieved<br />
The target actions have not been progressed,<br />
or performance is lower than last year<br />
Some progress made<br />
The target has not been achieved, but actions have<br />
been carried out towards delivering the target and<br />
performance is better than last year<br />
Target achieved<br />
All the actions are completed and items delivered.<br />
Performance has reached the target level<br />
Target bettered<br />
More actions have been completed than<br />
planned against the target and performance<br />
is better than the target<br />

To conduct at least 1 trial of alternative<br />
fuel vehicles at the airport by 31st<br />
December 2010<br />
To reduce STAL’s contribution to CO 2<br />
emissions against 2009 by 5%, to 49,617<br />
tonnes<br />
To recycle 50% of airport waste*<br />
including composting by 31 December<br />
2010<br />
To construct and commission the new<br />
pumping station and reservoir at<br />
Balancing Pond D by 31st December<br />
2010<br />
Trial of hydrogen generation, storage and<br />
vehicle refuelling planned in 2010. Trial took<br />
place March 2011<br />
In 2010 we reduced our emissions by 2.62%<br />
on 2009 to 50,838 tonnes of CO 2<br />
. This was<br />
influenced by the extremely cold start and end<br />
to the year which meant our gas consumption<br />
was unusually high. Our electricity consumption,<br />
which comprises the majority of our energy use,<br />
fell by 4.74% on 2009. This was largely due to<br />
improvements made in asset controls<br />
54.79% of airport waste was recycled<br />
or composted<br />
The new balancing pond D construction began<br />
in mid October 2010 and was commissioned by<br />
the end of January 2011<br />
