The World Birdstrike Association (WBA) invites you to participate in a short survey on wildlife hazard management within the ICAO-recommended 13-kilometre safety zone around airports.
ICAO Doc 9137 Part 3 – Fifth Edition (2020), Section 4.4.2 – Off-aerodrome habitat
“Land uses within 13 km of the aerodrome reference point (ARP) should be assessed for their potential to attract hazardous wildlife and appropriate action taken to minimize the risk.”
As wildlife risks increase near expanding airports, we want to understand:
-
Who currently takes responsibility?
-
What challenges exist beyond the airport fence?
-
How we can better collaborate across sectors?
This survey is open to:
-
Airport Operators
-
CAAs & Aviation Regulators
-
Local Governments
-
Environmental Authorities
-
NGOs & Industry Partners
- Takes 5–7 minutes
- Email collected for follow-up
Your input will guide future international guidance, funding priorities, and shared governance frameworks
