uses, for example to supply its cooling towers at Paris-Orly or toilet blocks. It also installs water saving equipment in the toilet areas of its terminals: ◆ recycling of rainwater at the West Terminal at Paris-Orly to supply the toilet blocks; ◆ installation of economical water flushes for all toilet block renovation projects; ◆ continuous staff training on the use of water resources, products and equipment. Rainwater and wastewater treatment At its Paris-Orly and Paris-Charles de Gaulle airports, in addition to pollution catch basins and retention basins, Aéroports de Paris has water treatment stations to meet the regulatory requirements for discharge into the natural environment imposed by an inter-prefectural order specific to each airport. This order was renewed for Paris-Charles de Gaulle in 2018. The rainwater collection and treatment network was restructured at Paris-Charles de Gaulle. Paris-Orly airport has a 2,000 sq.m. wetland filtration facility, which optimises the treatment of rainwater. To improve the regulation of rainwater discharge, Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport has constructed clean and more polluted water segregation basins as well as a connection for the most winter polluted water to the wastewater network. A new rainwater management plan was also prepared. Aéroports de Paris is committed to limiting newly sealed surfaces favouring infiltration wherever possible and, failing this, to offset sealed surfaces with retention ponds. As part of a water masterplan, zoning defining rainwater management rules by zone was created to promote infiltration and limit the maximum the flow of leaks from retention ponds to: ◆ 1 litre/second/hectare for Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport (rainwater storage capacity equivalent to 550 m 3 per hectare); ◆ 10 litres/second/hectare for the catchment basin from the Morée river to Paris-Le Bourget airport. After treatment, the wastewater produced at Aéroports de Paris SA’s airports is discharged into public sewers. A procedure for monitoring the wastewater produced as a result of the activities of Paris-Charles de Gaulle, Paris-Orly and Paris-Le Bourget and the industries of the airport zone is in place. Groupe ADP’s laboratory monitors the quality of the rainwater discharged into the natural environment as well as the water table level thanks to a network of measuring points (piezometers). Soil quality monitoring The storage and distribution of aviation fuel for aircraft are provided by external companies that maintain and operate the tanks and the hydrant fuelling system for which they also ensure the control and compliance. As the storage facilities are subject to legislation on facilities classified for environmental protection (ICPE or Installations classées pour la Protection de l’Environnement), they regularly undergo quality and compliance audits by the Regional and Interdepartmental Environment and Energy Department (DRIEE). Since 2014, Groupe ADP sends a letter to third parties in order to know their potential changes in activities and in ranking of their ICPEs (service stations, SMCA fuel depots, etc.).

◆ organising events to promote circular economy; ◆ producing a communication booklet on processing leftover food. The fight against food waste involves awareness raising actions with airport concessions in airports, inter-company restaurant service providers and the Works Council which manages six company restaurants (five restaurants and a snack cafeteria) at the Paris platforms. In 2018, a specific waste management channel was organised for liquid objects forbidden in aircraft cabins, such as perfume, shampoo, etc., and for sanitary block waste (nappies, sanitary towels).

Water and soil management Policy

Whilst Aéroports de Paris SA’s airports do not have any water constraints that would limit development of its activity, water conservation and sustainable management are an integral part of the Group’s environmental and energy policy, and rank high in its sustainable development goals. As a land developer, Groupe ADP takes care to respect the balance of the diversity of living things. The issue of land use is treated in accordance with current regulations. Groupe ADP’s laboratory also carries out environmental monitoring of soil quality, using the National Methodology of the Ministry of the Environment. This monitoring checks the compatibility of the environmental state of the sites with their uses and/or development projects, in order to ensure that any on-site pollution is properly handled. The soil pollution management procedures stipulate that a soil diagnosis must be performed each time land changes tenants. These procedures were updated in 2018. Objectives For water, Groupe ADP’s environmental and energy policy has three objectives for 2020: ◆ reduce drinking water consumption per passenger by 5% compared to 2014; ◆ as part of a water masterplan, define rainwater management rules by zone taking into account adaptation to climate change; ◆ continue to improve the management of winter pollution. Achievements Reduction in water consumption Aéroports de Paris SA distributes drinking water at its airports and has a water tower and booster pump at Paris-Charles de Gaulle, while Paris-Orly and Paris-Le Bourget are supplied by drinking water distribution points. These platforms do not have any water constraints that would limit the development of its activity. To succeed in reducing drinking water consumption per passenger by 5% by 2020 compared to 2014, Groupe ADP recycles rainwater for different
