East Midlands Airport

Continued growth of the airport facilities has lead to the requirement for additional car parking for both customers and staff. Stormwater discharges from the site were restricted and there was the additional constraint of ensuring that any new development would not place a further burden on the existing stormwater network that discharged via a series of on-site balancing ponds. East Midlands Airport and the Environment Agency were also keen to develop sustainable solutions that had a minimal impact on the local environment.
