It should also be remembered that Guernsey cannot tolerate any contamination to the water supply with all run-off collected and routed to the reservoir for drinking water. Remember the PFOS incident - the contaminated soil is still stored at the airport. This may well be the reason de-icer needs to be water soluble.
PS This is the Aurigny thread, not Guernsey Airport. Further discussion of this topic should be continued there.
