Recommendations for Noise Abatement Measures
Metrics Committee


       
go to Study Group Menu       Metrics

• Annoyance

• Frequency and variability

• Non-INM

Runway assumptions

• Area North of East runway

    Concern over removing people from 65 ldn with little noticeable difference

    Adding noticeable noise to other people

Retention of ARTS data

What is max potential of contra-flow

• Expand on reasons

Define tracks

• Metrics concern of “surprise” over-flight

    Consistency

    Predictability

• System to allow latest technology

    Not require

Review cancellation of instrument app/dep’s

Maneuver points to avoid population

Ground efforts

• Study of viability of trees and other landscaping

• Beacons, signals, markings educating and reminding pilots

• Hush houses for run-ups

• Study dampening generators

• If overruns constructed, maximize use for noise abatement

Airport restrictions

• Metrics focus

    SEL, Lmax, C-weighting

Airport regulations

• Train pilots based here, controllers

Measures to enhance, monitor, enforce

• Video training and communication

• Measure noise effects on people

• Psychological effects

• Better retention and analysis of ARTS data

• Report on variability of INM

• Expanded use of INM to assess these proposals
