OUR PERFORMANCE www.malaysiaairports.com.my 113 SUSTAINABILITY REVIEW At AOR, following a bird profiling activity jointly conducted with the Department of Wildlife (PERHILITAN) and the Royal Malaysian Air Force, the airport implemented several new initiatives to reduce wildlife strikes in the airport vicinity. This includes placing compact discs at the landside area to reflect bright light that bothers the birds’ vision so as to make them uncomfortable with the environment. We also placed dummy owls in specific areas where the identified bird species viewed owls as their natural predators. Duty officers patrol the landside and runway areas frequently to repel birds. The Air Traffic Control will be notified of the presence of birds so that they will be able to warn pilots to be more vigilant. In addition, the issue of wildlife strikes is discussed regularly at the Airport Wildlife Hazard Management Plan quarterly meeting and the Runway Safety Team meeting. KUL and other airports also conduct regular maintenance as preemptive measures to lower wildlife strikes. This includes STANDARDS AND CERTIFICATION WILDLIFE STRIKES maintaining the necessary grass level required at the airport, cutting bushes and trees that offer attractive nesting sites, removing food sources such as seed-bearing plants, pest control measures to reduce the insects that birds eat and the placement of spikes and repellents to deter the birds. A special aerodrome inspection is also conducted periodically to evaluate the effectiveness of these measures and to consider further measures. Other airports within our network are also closely working with the local wildlife department in mitigating wildlife hazard management. In 2022, 46 wildlife strikes were recorded under 300 feet within the inner boundary of KUL and 109 wildlife strikes at MASB airports. This incident rate complies with the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia approval limit. MS 2530:2013 MALAYSIAN SUSTAINABLE PALM OIL (MSPO) • MAB Agriculture-Horticulture Sdn.
