94Secondly, it must be stated that operation of the southern runway is part of FLH’s economic activity. As is clear from recital 177 of the Decision, the southern runway is infrastructure which will be commercially exploited by FLH, since FLH will not make it available without charge to users in the common interest but will charge users for its use. In that regard, it must be pointed out that the airport fees will be the major source of revenue for financing the new southern runway, as the Commission stated in recital 15 of the Decision. The construction and development of that runway will thus permit FLH to increase its capacity and its economic activity as operator of Leipzig-Halle Airport.
