Vegetation Management at International, Regional, & Municipal Airports is Crucial

Safety: Uncontrolled vegetation can obstruct flight paths and interfere with navigational aids, posing safety hazards to aircraft during takeoff, landing, and taxiing.
Wildlife Hazard Management: Overgrown vegetation attracts birds and other wildlife, increasing the risk of bird strikes, which can damage aircraft and endanger passengers and crew.
Security: Dense vegetation provides cover for unauthorized access to airport premises, presenting security risks. Proper fence line vegetation management helps maintain perimeter security and reduces the likelihood of trespassing and unauthorized activities.
Regulatory Compliance: Many aviation authorities and government bodies have regulations in place regarding vegetation management to ensure the safety and security of airport operations. Compliance with these regulations is essential to maintain the airport's operational status.
Visibility: Clearing vegetation around runways, taxiways, and other critical areas improves visibility for pilots, air traffic controllers, and ground personnel, enhancing operational efficiency and safety.
Environmental Considerations: Vegetation management strategies also consider environmental impacts, such as preserving habitats for endangered species and strategically applying the use and amount of herbicides considering their effects on the ecosystem.
