Introduction Company profile and strategyService portfolio Communication and social responsibilityBiodiversity) www.munich-airport.com/landscape) Glossary “Biodiversity”Compensatory mitigation sitesIn what is referred to as Zone III in the airport’s sur -rounding area, Flughafen München GmbH has createdjust over 350 hectares of compensatory mitigationsites. Of these, there are seven hectares in the Oberdingermoosconservation area, a further 18 hectares inFreising and Erding’s nature preserves, and 75 hectaresin the Freisinger Moos and Nördliches ErdingerMoos bird reserves.Zone II, comprising 250 hectares along the airport’sperimeter, integrates the airport into the surroundinglandscape; it contains copses and hedgerows, fieldsand pastureland, and a number of man-made watercourses,including the airport’s south and east contain -ment ditches, north diversion ditch, and north receivingditch. Much of the airport’s perimeter zone is partof the Nördliches Erdinger Moos bird reserve.As part of an environmental land project, we are holdingaround 100 hectares in reserve for the creation offurther compensatory mitigation sites. This land is acknowledgedby conservation experts as suitable andwill be used for this purpose as necessary. Like ourexisting sites, this hectarage, too, is spread acrossthe aforementioned conservation areas.Continuous maintenance anddevelopmentFMG’s compensatory mitigation sites comply withrequirements issuing from a range of zoning approvalsand amendments, and are reviewed by publicauthorities to ensure that they are implemented andmaintained correctly. Maintenance and developmentplans and targets have been defined for the varioussites and biotopes in collaboration with the natureconservation authorities, and will help to safeguardthe variety of species and biodiversity. Our broaderoverall objective is to maintain the variety of land useand locations while taking steps to preserve highlyendangered habitats within the natural environment,such as moor grass pastures, sedge land and lownutrientgrassland. Other objectives include creatingprotected open and expansive pasture complexesand expanding small areas of existing fenland, whichare in particular need of protection. The maintenanceand development plans also include specific instructionson how to mow meadowland and wetland areas,along with exact information on when to conductrejuvenation work and thin out hedges and copses.Better ecological valueStructural elements such as trees, hedges and fallowstrips planted or created in mitigative areas in the na -ture preserves help to promote and protect the na -tural variety and character of the land and are of immensevalue for local species diversity. Overall, themeasures implemented under our landscape conservationplans are having a highly positive impact, pre -serving and protecting habitats for plants and animals,especially some of the rare and threatened speciesonce typical for the local natural environment. In addition,programs to set up and expand wet, mesic andlow-nutrient meadowland are helping us to accom-Airport’s total areaInside perimeter fence (Zone I): 1,575 hectaresAdditional green areasCurrent: 700 hectaresPaved areas632 hectaresUnpaved areas943 hectaresEco reserve forfuture expansion100 hectaresCompensatory mitigationsites in surroundingarea (Zone III)350 hectaresGreen belt aroundairport perimeter(Zone II)250 hectares108

Areas like these arecommon at our compensatory mitigation sites and, inmany instances, the care and maintenance work wecarry out is intended expressly to protect them andenhance their ecological value.Protecting threatened bird speciesThe Freisinger Moos bird reserve helps populationsof protected European bird species to survive and re -cover. These species include ground-nesting birds likequail, lapwing, the western curlew, the red-backedshrike and the bluethroat. Land owned by FlughafenMünchen GmbH is mown and maintained in such away that it provides a habitat that suits birds like theseand protects threatened species. The low-nutrientmeadows set up as a mitigative site at Langer Haken,a former glider aerodrome, are especially importantfor the long-term protection of a small populationof the western curlew, which is currently at risk ofextinction.The open land and spinneys of the Nördliches ErdingerMoos bird reserve are also managed and maintainedto provide a habitat that suits protected Europeanground-nesting birds like the blue-headed wagtail,corncrake, lapwing and western curlew, as well asspecies like the oriole, pied flycatcher, red-backedshrike and bluethroat.At the Oberdingermoos nature preserve, there arevaluable tracts of low-nutrient meadowland, rich inflowering plant species, that are reminiscent of oldertypes of land use. These, too, are carefully landscapedand maintained to provide the right habitats to protectkey European bird species like the tree pipit, redstart,lesser spotted woodpecker, red-backed shrike, orioleand river warbler.109
