MAC: Stewards of Tomorrow's Airport Resources

MAC: A CULTURE of SUSTAINABILITY

The Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC) has been a longtime leader in proactively responding to environmental concerns across a wide spectrum ranging from a standard-setting noise mitigation program to the preservation of Minnesota wetlands.

In an era where air travel is forecast only to increase, MAC views environmental sustainability as integral to the MAC mission to "set the standard in environmental stewardship in the development and operation of our airport system."

Being good stewards means operating and developing our airports in ways that meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Sustainable solutions are those that address long-term environmental, operational, financial and social needs.
