4. Project Proposal
• Walton airport was the main airport of lahore but
its handling capacity is less however, Walton was
unable to handle the large aircraft
• Over the course of the next 25 years the demand
for air travel rose
• government decided to build a new world class
airport to meet the growing needs for the future
and improve the facilities for passengers named
as Allama Iqbal International
5. Flights
• All flights will be switched to the new airport
and the old airport will be passed onto the
military. However, during the Hajj period, the
old airport will be used as the Hajj Terminal by
the national carrier, PIA.
6. Project Description:
• Site Location
• It is located in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. The
airport currently has three terminals; the
Allama Iqbal terminal, the Hajj terminal, and a
cargo terminal. The airport is located about 15
kilometres from the centre of the city.
• Its coordinates are 31ᴼ31’17”N, 74ᴼ24’09”E.

11. Screening
• Pakistan environmental protection authority
(PEPA), require an Environmental Impact
Assessment (EIA), for every major project in
Pakistan having Physical, Biological, social and
economical impacts
12. Scooping
• Land environment impacts
• Water environmental impacts
• Air environmental impact
• Noise environmental impact
• Biological environmental impact
• Socio-Economic environmental impact
• Solid waste
13. Land environment impacts
Activity
• Earth work construction
• Fuel storage and handling:
Impacts
• Loss of vegetation
• Change in elevation of the
area
• Drainage Patterns
• Land and air pollution
14. Water environmental impacts
Activity
• Aircraft and vehicle washing
• Toilets, laundries, cleaning
fluids
Impacts
• Water pollution
• Land pollution
• Cause health problems
15. Air environmental impact
Activity
• Aircraft emissions
• Emissions from surface
vehicles
Impacts
• The maximum incremental
Ground Level
Concentrations (GLCs) due
to the airport project for
PM, SO2, NOx, CO and HC
• Pm, SO2, NOx, CO, HC
emissions to air, which
cause health hazards
16. Noise environmental impacts
Activity
• Construction noise
• Aircraft noise & Ground
noise
Impacts
• Noise pollution
• Effects hearing and nerves
system
• Noise pollution
• Effects hearing and nerves
system
19. Mitigation measure
• Land Environment
• containment of any surface spillage monitored
• Aircraft maintenance, sensitivity of the location
where activities are undertaken, and control of
runoff of potential contaminants, chemicals etc.
are to be properly implemented and reported.
• Proper drainage systems
• emergency containment in the event of a major
spill during monsoon season etc. are to be
provided.
20.
21. Water environment
• Storm water drains are to be built for
discharging storm water from the air-field to
avoid flooding /water logging in project area
during monsoon season / cloud bursts
22. Air Environment
• Continuous Descent Approach and low power- low drop
techniques,
• Design the airports to minimize aircraft holding and taxiing
times
• Avoid Aircraft line up on the ground,
• Avoiding unnecessary use of aircraft secondary power
units,
• Taxiing management (e.g. towing and single engine taxi),
• Increasing the use of public transport,
• The use of electric vehicles or less polluting fuels
23.
24. Noise Environment
• The noise preferential routes which the aircraft
overfly the least populated areas after takeoff
and before landing are to be suggested.
• Night flying policy to limit the number of flights
and amount of noise generated during this most
sensitive time is to be formulated
• Mitigation measures could also include
introduction of higher landing fees for noisy
aircraft and for night landing in threshold cases
could be considered.
25.
26. Waste Management
• The wastes have to be managed after
segregation and identifying the method of
management. Recycling of wastes such as
paper, glass carried out.
•
27. Socio-Economic Environment
• Air pollution control measures are to be
adopted. Noise control measures such as
noise absorbing building material in closed
buildings, noise barriers in Ground run bays,
are to be insured
• Health camps both for employees and local
populations are to be conducted.
