The Grantee's goal is for the NAICM to be environmentally sustainable and to be the first airport in the world to obtain LEED Platinum certification. Additionally, the Grantee is working to make the NAICM one of the few airports in the world to be carbon neutral (achieving net-zero carbon dioxide emissions). The Grantee is seeking to adopt international best practices related to green airport operations by using renewable energy resources, promoting the use of public transport, and developing programs that would protect the environment, including water resources, wildlife, and vegetation. To support these efforts, the Technical Assistance will allow the Grantee to develop a Sustainability Management Plan that integrates the policies, guidelines, requirements, and action items related to the environmentally sustainable construction and operation of the NAICM. The Technical Assistance will provide a holistic approach to environmental sustainability and will position the NAICM as a driver for regional, economic, and social development. The Technical Assistance includes the following elements: •Operationalize the Grantee's vision for the environmentally sustainable development of the NAICM; •Develop a set of policies and guidelines that can be used by the Grantee to identify specific green airport programs, equipment, and technologies that would maximize the environmental sustainability of the new airport; and •Develop an implementation plan and timeline of action items that would lead to achieving the SMP. The U.S. firm selected will be paid in U.S. dollars from a $924,810 grant to the Grantee from the U.S. Trade and Development Agency ("USTDA"). A detailed Request for Proposals ("RFP"), which includes requirements for the Proposal, the Terms of Reference, and portions of a background Definitional Mission report are available from USTDA, at 1000 Wilson Boulevard, Suite 1600, Arlington, VA 22209-3901.
