We engage ina variety of initiatives at Munich Airport to guard a-gainst this kind of event and to ensure the safety andcontinuity of airport operations. Bird control is carriedout by specially trained Flughafen München GmbHemployees who are on site throughout the airport’soperating hours and remain in constant contact withair traffic control. They use various methods to driveoff animals that pose a potential threat to safety. Often,it suffices if they simply drive up in a vehicle and getout or sound the horn. Patrols also use pyro-acousticsto startle animals. This involves firing flares that makea bang, whistle or flash after a delay.Sophisticated biotope managementUnlike many other international airports, Munich doesa lot more to prevent bird strike than just startle thebirds. We expend considerable effort on creating andmaintaining biotopes that blend in with the local landscapeyet are carefully managed so as not to attract tothe airport and its immediate surrounding area thosekinds of birds that pose a threat to aviation (for example,species that are heavy or have a tendency toswarm or are active flyers).Two-thirds of the airport site is covered with greenery,which requires special care and maintenance in connectionwith bird strike prevention. Given that shortgrass would tend to attract bird species dangerousto aviation, the grassy areas around the runways aremown as seldom as possible. Flocking species likestarlings and gulls are generally not attracted to thelong grass because they lose sight of each other, andlarger, heavier birds like buzzards and herons avoid itbecause of the difficulty of finding prey. This not onlyhelps to improve aviation safety, it is also importantfrom a conservation point of view as the landscapehas a far greater environmental value than uniform,intensively farmed arable or pastureland. In an effortnot to attract heavy waterfowl, we have avoided crea -ting open expanses of water as far as possible; wehave installed wires over groundwater drainageditches; and we have drained areas where surfacewater tended to accumulate. The airport’s perimeterfence keeps out large mammals like deer and wildboar, giving other species a chance to thrive.As a further safeguard against bird strike, we also haveagreements in place that put certain constraints ontenant farmers who work FMG-owned land. For in -stance, under the terms of these agreements, farmersare not permitted to use liquid fertilizer or sludge onthe fields within 600 meters of the airport perimeter.FMG works closely with organizations on the questionof bird strike prevention, in particular with airlinecompanies, German air traffic control, regional andnational government agencies, and the German BirdStrike Committee (DAVVL). In addition, the airportoperating company has public-agency status and thusa say in connection with bird strike risk when localauthorities approve land use in areas outside the airportperimeter.Low bird strike rate in MunichThe likelihood of a bird strike event is lower at Munichthan at most other commercial airports. The regionalgovernment of Upper Bavaria noted in its zoning deci -sion for Munich Airport’s third runway in 2011: “MunichAirport has mean bird strike rates of 1.29 in itsinner zone and 0.72 in its outer zone, compared tomean inner and outer-zone rates Germany-wide of2.56 and 1.18.” The rate indicates the number of birdstrike events per 10,000 aircraft movements.High IT security standardsFlughafen München GmbH has released binding informationsecurity guidelines governing the treatmentof information and the use of information technology,both within its own organization and at its affiliates.

He reports directly toFMG’s executive management and is supported byother information security officers in the parent companyitself and in its various subsidiaries.Key information security tasks include technical, organizationaland employee-related audits, the creationof guidelines (on using IT systems and on contractingexternal service businesses, for example), risk management,technical measures to harden computer security,and initiatives to raise employees’ awarenessof the importance of IT security.New FMG systems are produced in accordance withMAP, an in-house project management methodology,and MAPIT, a supplement that applies specifically toIT systems. This unified approach to project managementmeans that steps are taken during the developmentphase and thereafter to ensure that systemssatisfy FMG quality, security and reliability requirements.The safe handling of information stored on IT systems(in particular, customer data) is covered by in-houseinformation classification and handling guidelines.These detail specific requirements on storing informationon mobile devices, sending information by e-mailand deleting data securely.Our main information security management focuses in2011 were on conducting a comprehensive emergencyexercise, auditing technical solutions (a PA system,for instance) and HR processes. We also held trainingprograms for project supervisors on the informationsecurity aspects of projects, we stepped up trainingfor new employees, and we rolled out various technicalIT security safeguards, including an updated firewallinfrastructure.) www.munich-airport.com/consulting61
