Material efficiency targets guide the construction<br />
work at Helsinki Airport<br />
Targets have been set in the Helsinki Airport development programme<br />
for the utilisation of demolition and construction waste,<br />
and the contractors must observe these targets. We are also<br />
investigating the best ways to utilise the excess soil excavated in<br />
the construction projects carried out as part of the development<br />
programme. A total of some 600 tonnes of contaminated soil was<br />
decontaminated as part of the construction projects included in<br />
the development programme.<br />
In 2012, Finavia obtained an environmental permit for re-using<br />
crushed tarmac in the Helsinki Airport area. A total of some 4.500<br />
tonnes of crushed tarmac, that had been removed for instance<br />
during the resurfacing of taxiways and aprons, was re-used in <strong>2016</strong><br />
for paving of maintenance roads the safety zones at the end of<br />
runways.<br />
The turku oil spill caused only minor environmental<br />
damage<br />
The cleanup of the oil spill that occurred at Turku Airport in<br />
autumn 2014 was completed in summer 2015. Groundwater monitoring<br />
continued in <strong>2016</strong> and no elevated oil concentrations were<br />
detected in groundwater. This supports the earlier finding that<br />
rapid pollution control measures prevented the oil spill from causing<br />
any substantial damage to the environment.<br />
