UPS captures and recycles their de-icing fluid with a special underground capture system, rather then letting it drain off to the local water supply. I beleive they are the only airline at MHT that does this.

"Since 2004, the airport has struggled over what to do with de-icer"

Sounds more like the airport struggled to find taxpayer dollars to pay for the work. Now they have a grant from FAA and they can figure out how to solve the problem.
