Alison commercial terminal, as well as the roof of the rental car wash facility just west of the terminal. The car wash facility features a wastewater recovery\/reuse and surface water management systems, as well as an irrigation system utilizing well water.<\/p>\n<p>The annual award is presented for promoting, implementing or undertaking environmental projects and programs that have a positive effect on the Florida aviation system.\u00a0 The FAC looks for projects that demonstrate a balance between environmental benefits and financial viability. They also recognize the importance of partnerships with entities outside of aviation. The photovoltaic solar panel project and the participation in Gainesville Regional Utilities\u2019 Feed In Tariff program were important.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are thankful to have so many great partners involved in our efforts at GNV,\u201d says airport CEO Allan Penksa. \u201cThe staff at GRU was supportive and accommodating. GNV has had the assistance of focused engineers with Reynolds Smith &amp; Hills and Passero &amp; Associates who put all these pieces of the puzzle together. We must also thank our colleagues with the Florida Department of Transportation for assistance in securing funding for these initiatives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Florida Airports Council (FAC) is honoring Gainesville Regional Airport (GNV) for recent sustainability projects.
