SACBO PUBLISHES A NEW CALL FOR TENDER WORTH 4.5 MILLION EUROS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MITIGATION WORKS IN THE AREA SURROUNDING THE AIR

The SACBO Board of Directors has approved the publication of a new call for tender for environmental mitigation works to be carried out on residential properties in the area surrounding the airport, allocating the sum of 4.5 million euros. This will be the fourth call for tender published by the airport management company, and forms part of the multi-year programme aimed at favouring environmental compatibility between the activities related to air traffic and the surrounding area. Close collaboration with Municipal Administrations led to the identification of the areas that qualify for the works in the territory of Bergamo, Orio Al Serio, Grassobbio, Seriate, Bagnatica and Brusaporto. Homes within these areas will be able to apply for assessment to ascertain whether they qualify for works to improve sound insulation. Two categories of work have been identified; either structural, aimed at achieving a level of acoustic insulation for residential building façades as set out by the Italian Prime Ministerial Decree dated 05/12/1997 and consisting in the renovation of doors and windows, as well as the insulation of the property in question if necessary, and concerning the optimisation of acoustic comfort, consisting in the installation of air-conditioning systems in residential properties that lack them.
