Danielson, City Administra SUBJECT: Comp Pian Review DISCUSSION: Attached is a draft of the City Planner's Airport Plan that needs to be included with his 2030 Comprehensive Plan. Also attached is a copy of the 2007 Plan of Action. : , • . - � - � Please review and provide commends on this plan. ; � . •��- • •' Mendota Heights is a community directly affected by aircraft operations at Minneapolis- St. Paul International Airport (MSP). Aircraft noise is a major issue for Mendota Heights because of the detrimental impacts of increased operations on the quality of life in existing neighborhoods and the impact of land use compatibility guidelines and noise contours on development options. � _= Y:� �� ' � •• • ,� r o�' •� �� ' '- • i� 0� � _■ • _ n •�� ! �, j - i- � r' 'i= _ � t�- = ' - - - � ' - - -�._._��_.�.-,.�-�.'-�-"'-'_'�.�.�.r ota Heights was the only Metropolitan Council noise zones and guidelines and �enforce a Noise Att�uation Ordinance� (.� •�,� � V" vt w k5e. city that adopted the original is the only city to adopt and �g � Th�Run�ay Use System at P relies heavily on "land compatibility" as a guiding � principle for departure determination, thereby increasing the volume of traffic and the �b � percentage of exclusive use of the southeast corridor, which was zoned ,��,(, commerciallindustrial in cooperation with regional and local planning agencies. This �� increased traffic has impacted existing compatible residential neighborhoods in 5 hu�S . Mendota Heights. � j � The City of Mendota Heights has worked strenuously to address airport noise issues. A -- citizen Airports Relations Gommission has been established by Mendota Heights to provide recommendations to the City Council on airport issues. This plan is a compilation of the City's work and history regarding the airport, a set of policies and acfions to guide future decisions on airport, a description of the conflicts with other agencies responsible for airport impacts, and a discussion of the potential land use impacts from agency requirements. In addition to these local efforts, the City has adopted a zoning ordinance consistent with fiederal requirements for height control jurisdictions. GOA�S AND POLICIES The overall goals in relation to airport related issues are as follows: 1. To reduce negative airport impacts in Mendota Heights. 2. To - � �� equitable distribution of flights among all communities located adjacent to MSP. 3. To work diligently with all noise issues and agencies to decrease aircraft noise in volume and to decrease the � of noise impacts. � p�.Lr � �� a''1 Aircraft Noise Policies ( To address the issues described herein and to pursue the goals of the City, the following are the policies of the City of Mendota Heights: 1. Increase public participation and representation through NOC and MAC. 2. Achieve noise reduction through advocating modified takeoff procedures and corridor compliance. 3. Advocate an equitable distribution of aircraft traffic and a more equitable runway use system. 4. Monitor the continued implementation of the Minnea olis/St. Paul (MSP) airport ` Comprehensive Plan.

J � � � � � �fn � � ��r.m HIS1"Of�Y �F tVOISE DUC7'ION EFFORI'S The City of Mendota Heights has addressed aircraft noise issues in several ways, including the following formal actions: 1. Membership in the NOC. 2. Modification of the Land Use Plan consistent with the established aircraft flight corridor 3. Adoption of the Aircraft Noise Attenuation Ordinance 4. Establishment of the citizen Airports Relations Commission (ARC) to study airport issues and make recommendations to the City Council 5. Agreem nt to a contract with MAC prohibiting construction of a third parallel runwayl� �� /t� y�'G� aP�� t�� f - �,G�r-�� g,.wvv�G�'s S The City has worked tt4-fou�i the va�us agencies dn issues including: modi�cat on of � � aircraft landings and departures, supporting the installation of �NOMS, supporting the -- prohibi ion of Stage II aircraft, and educating homeowners abo�u�'the Part 150 program. ��' �; ��'- �I�zrf'cc�� j-j�,h _ �1 /�ii 0 The City of Mendota Heights planned its land use according to the flight corridor, as �� originally established, and adopted land use guidelines into an ordinance format in (, _ __ ,� � ��` �� N�� a ��• 1987. Operations have strayed to existing residential areas outside of the planned corridor however, significantly impacting several neighborhoods. IMPACTS ON FUTURE LAND USE PLANNING Mendota Heights has planned its land uses in relation to the City's experience with air noise and the airport's aviation guidelines. New development and redevelopment in the areas affected by air noise is closely scrutinized, and has been accomplished with success through strict adherence to site planning and building design regulations. The City of Mendota Heights has adopted the Metropolitan Council's model Sound Attenuation Ordinance and has enforced the provisions of this ordinance for all building permits in the Noise Zones since 1986. Tow�e projects are considered to be cansistent with the Aviation Policy compatibility guidelines for Noise Zone 4, which allows residential land uses, as a conditianal use. The conditional use for residential land use in Noise Zone 4 is satisfied through the enforcement of the City's Sound attenuation Ordinance, thereby, allowing residential construction to meet the Aviation Guide Plan's land use compatibility guidelines. The City of Mendota Heights considers tawn home development to be consistent with ! Aviation Guide Plan land use compatibility guidelines for the following reasons: �� 1. The experience of the City of Mendota Heights with the Sound Attenuation Ordinance has shown that single family homes and multiplex residential structures (in Noise Zone 4) can be sound attenuated as successfully as larger buildings with shared entrances. 2. A continuing reduction in experienced air noise, as evidenced by the airport's planning documents, new runway construction, and enhancements in aircraft technology, will result in the protection of current Mendota Heights residential areas from the prospect of new negative air noise impacts. The City of Mendota Heights will allow for the development of town home projects, consistent wifih the policy direction associated with the City's recent housing developments around Lake Augusta, provided the project demonstrates compliance with the following: 1. Future town home developments shall be required to limit the exterior use on the site through unit design and the layout of the site plan. 2. Future town home developments shall be designed compliant with the building ( requirements of the City's Sound Attenuation Ordinance. ` 3. Future town home developers shall file notice against the property deeds nofiifying all future property owners that the parcels exist within the Metropolitan Council's Air Noise Zones. � � ; 11.�_ � � • � � - � Mendota Heights Airport Relations Cornr�zission - 1 - Revised 6/20/07 The Mendota Heights Aiu-port Relations Coznmission is charged with monitoring proposed �- airport rules, procedures, and programs and advising the City Council on matters periaining to airport noise and operations.

The new seventh runway at Detroit Metropolitan (which would be a fifth parallel runway) is proposed in a 20-year master plan for the airport that will be considered by the board of the Wayne County Airport Authority at the end of March. The master plan will then be submitted to the Federal Aviation Adminisiration for approval. The new runway would not be built unti115-20 years from now. Airport authority o�cials contend that the new runway is needed to handle the projected 2.3 percent annual increase in traffic expected at Detroit Metro, the 1 l�'' busiest airport in the nation and a hub for Northwest Airlines. Annual passenger levels, c�ui�ently at around 36 million, are expected to increase to 60 million by 2027. Romulus Mayor Alan Lambert said that "while the city supports responsible expansion of the airport, we cannot support a plan that has such a severe eco- (Continued on p. 27) E�agines ' �I .1 �� ,�r . ,�;.: �� .�; :.� � � ,, . . � ;�; . . . The noise level reduction of Pratt & Whitney's new Geared Turbofan engine is so significant, company officials are telling airports, that it will allow them to do something that is urgently needed to reduce congestion and delay but strongly resisted by communities: add new flight paths. P&W officials have visited 20 airports recently to tout the noise reduction expected from the new engine, which will begin flight tests in June and is expected to go into service in 2013 on the new Mitsubishi Regional Jet. The company has not released the names of the airports it visited but said "they are major airports in the U.S., Europe, and Asia with specific focus on those communities with significant noise sensitivities." Matthew Pena, a spokesman for P&W Commercial Engines, said the new Geared Turbofan engine will be able to meet the most stringent airport noise rules worldwide. The new engine is expected to emit only half the noise produced by current engines. P&W estimates the following noise reductions for various categories of Geared Turbofan engines: � A cumulative 15 dB below current Stage 4 aircraft noise certification (Continued on p. 27) In Z'his ISSue...

We appreciate the regional economic benefits of the airport but we have to look at the quality of life of our residents — and I have not seen how this plan is good for Romulus." The plan for the new runway would displace 16 percent of the city's population (815 residential properties and 352 multiple family units) and appro�ci�n ately 30 industrial properties, and would result in the loss of $114 million in assessed property value, which city officials said would economically devastate their community. On Feb. 28, the Romulus City Council approved a resolu- tion opposing the new runway in the proposed master plan. It states that the preferred development plan in the master plan "is based solely upon airport operations and fails to take into consideration the direct social and economic impacts outside the airport boundaiy." Letter to FAA In a Feb. 4letter to the FAA, Mayor Lambert asserted that the Wayne County Airport Authority "has not met the requirements for community participation" outlined in FAA Advisory Circular 150-5070-6B onAirportMasterPlans. "The City of Romulus cannot see how the approval process can meet the process standards in [the advisory circular] considering the local communities' comments are excluded from consideration," the mayor told FAA. "At every step in this process, when the City of Romulus tendered critical cornments to the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meetingpresentation, the [aizport authority] and its consultant [Jacbosen Daniels Associates] would submit a new plan at the next TAC meeting that would do even more damage to the City of Romulus. The punitive nature of this process is disiurbing," the mayor wrote. He told the FAA that the current size of the airport also needs to be resolved. The city assessment records indicate the airport to be 4,884.68 acres in size but the airport website and Part 150 noise compatibility study state the size of the airport to be 6,700 acres, the mayor told FAA. "It is our understanding that there is a clearly defined map of Detroit Metropolitan Airport that is required by the FAA. Please provide the City of Romulus with a copy of that map at your convenience," the mayor wrote. No Choice �ut to Expand into City Scott Wintner, a spokesman for the airport authority, refuted the city's claim that it had been left out of the master planning process. He said city off'icials were invited to participate on the technical advisory committee and citizens advisory committee but did not have a high rate of atten- dance. The airport authority wanted an open master planning process and made presentations to the editorial boards of local newspaper, Chambers of Commerce, and economic development groups, he told ANR. He stressed that the airport does not want to resort to 27 eminent domain to acquire the land for the new runway. The goal is to make the city realize that the runway zs needed for regional economic growth. Wintner contended that Romulus will be the greatest beneficiary of the new runway because new airport support businesses will relocate there and stimulate the local economy. The airport must expand for the regional economy to grow, he said, adding there is no choice but to expand into the city. Engines, from p. 26 standards for engines in the 15,000-17,000 pound thiust range that will power regional jets; • A cumulative 20 dB below Stage 4 standards for engines in the 17,000-23,000 lb. thrust range that will power 100-passenger aircraft; and • A cumulative 20-25 dB below Stage 4 standards for engines iri the 23,000-30,000 lb. thrust range that will power 150-passenger aircraft. Cumulative noise reductions are the total noise reductions achieved at the three measurements points (takeoff, ap- proach, and sideline) used in noise certification testing. Wyle Laboratories has produced sophisticated computer models for P&W indicating that the noise footprint of the Geared Turbofan engine would be 77 percent less than the noise footprint produced by a Boeing 737-800 powered by a GE CFM56 engine departing Amsterdam Schiphol Airport. Grounci LeveT'I'esting�.Tnderway P&W announced in mid-February that a demonstrator Geared Turbofan engine had completed phase I ground testing ahead of schedule. Both performance and acoustic testing was done on the full-scale demonstrator. Noise data has not been released because it was done on component parts and the demonstrator engine had no nacelle. The engine wili now be configured with the flight nacelle system for phase II ground testing which will begin in April in preparation for flight testing in June. "The Geared Turbofan engine's performance has been outstanding and all initial test results have validated the game-changing benefits of this new product," said Bob Saia, vice president of P& W's Next Generation Product Family. "The initial results surpassed our pre-test preclictions, demonstrating the fuel-burn, noise and emissions character- istics of this new architecture." The Geared Turbofan engine is expected to reduce fuel burn by 12 percent, cut NOx emissions by 50-55 percent, and reduce CO2 emissions by 2,700-3,000 tons per aircraft annually. P&W said its new engine "is expected to set new standards in environmental and operational engine performance." In October 2007, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries selected the new engine as the exclusive power for its next-generation Mitsubishi Regional Jet. Bombardier also will power its new CSeries aircraft with the Geared Turbofan engine. The Geared Turbofan engine reduces noise by allowing the engine fan to operate at a slower speed than the low-pressure Airport Noise Report C C ' (�� ) March 7, 2008 compressor and iurbirie. The state-of-the-art gear system allows the engine to operate more efficiently, which reduces fuel consumption and emissions. Baltimore-Washington Int'Z FAA APPROVES UPDATE TO PART 150 I�T(�ISE PROG�2AIVI An npdate to the Part 150 Airport Noise Compatibiliiy Program for Baltimore-Washington Intemational Thurgood Marshall Airport was approved by the Federal Aviation Administration on Feb. 26. The program has not been updated since 1990. The update included the following four revisions: � Update a noise rule for Runway 15L/33R, a shorter runway used mainly by general aviation aircraft. Prior to the update, the rule required aircraft to be no louder than 90 dS SEL as modeled in the FAA's Integrated Noise Model. Now aircraft can be no louder than 87 EPNdB determined by averaging the take-off and sideline noise certification levels as listed in FAA's Part 36 advisory circular. The revision is intended to make it easier for pilots to determine compliance with the rule, which was imposed in FAA's approval of an extension of the runway in 1998 and was intended to pull high noise contours back onto airport property; � Modify existing voluntary residential property acquisition program to expand eligibility to the 65 dB DNL contour line as defined by updated noise exposure maps. Prior to the update, the program e�ctended only to the 70 dB DNL contour; • Modify existing Homeowners Assistance Program to expand eligibility to the 65 dB DNL contour, which would malce an additiona1135 single family homes and 540 multi- family units in four buildings eligible. Prior to the update the program extended only to the 70 dB DNL contour; • Update the airport's noise and operations monitor- ing system with more modern equipment. The current system was installed in the mid-1980s. The Maryland Aviation Administration, which operates B WI, would like to modern- ize its current system by updating existing noise monitoring equipment and creating new monitoring locations. The airport is in the process of assessing what systems are available. Meetings � �' ' ' 1 • i I � � � � � � . �, � � .

Some 40 homes will be insulated in the r�ext three phases of the airport's insulation program at a cost of $132 million and an average cost per home of $33,100. Airport officials are in the process of consulting with homeowners to determine if they are still interested in participating in the program. Unclear at this point is who will pay for the insulation of the 40 homes. A.n Airport Improvement Program (AIP) grant awarded to the airport for the insulation work expired at the end of February. Airport off'icials said they have asked for an extension of the grant, and if that is not provided, will apply for a new grant and use Passenger Facility Charges to fill in the funding gap. Since the residential sound insulation program began in 2000, .sound insulation has been completed on 216 homes. Some 172 homes remain to be insulated, including the 40 that will be treated in the current phase.

The Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Airport Authoriiy is poised to submit to the Federal Aviation Administration a Part 161 costlbenefit study supporting a full nighttime curfew at Bob Hope Airport. If approved by the agency, it would be the first noise restriction on Stage 3 aircraft im�osed under the agency's Part 161 regulations, which were adopted in 1991 following passage of the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990. Other airports have begun the cost/beneiit analysis required under the Part 161 rules to support a new noise restriction in the United States but have abandoned it unable to satisfy FAA's rigorous demands. On March 5, a subcommittee of the airport authority recommended that the full nine-member Airport Authority Commission consider a draft Part 161 application seeking FAA approval of a mandatory curfew from 10 p.m. to 6:59 a.m. at Bob Hope Airport and an escalating series of fines for repeated violations. The recommendation also includes scheduling a 45-day comment period, public workshop, and a public hearing on the airport authority's draft Part 161 Study and the draft curfew application.

She said that the cap, which will apply to both domestic and international flights, will allow an average of 83 flights per hour during peak periods and will go into effectin early May. "We have an obligation to travelers to do everything in our power to prevent a repeat of the horrors they experienced last summer," Peters said. "Delays in New York are a regional problem, not just a single-airport problem." A sunilar cap on hourly operations at New York's JFK International Airport will go into effect ]ater this month. Secretary Peters said that DOT will introduce "market-based mechanisms" at Newark to allow the airport to accommodate growth while helping to reduce congestion and delays. As capacity grows at Newark, DOT will auction slots at the airport, which Peters said "is an approach that encourages competition, allows new entrants, and responds to customer demand."

Agency appears to be trying to avert legal showdown over ordinance - p. 32 (Continued on p. 32) � I March 14, 2008 The Airport Authority Commission is expected to endorse the subcottimittee's recommendation at a March 17 meeting. "The authority has steadfastly looked for a means to submit an application for a full curfew that meets all of the Part 161 requirements and can be evaluated on its merits by the FAA. We believe our methodology is very defensible, and we are prepared to go to the FAA and make a very strong argument in favor of this curfew," said Dan Feger, interim executive directar of the Airport Authority. Curfew Compared to Insulation Part 161 regulations require that a proposed restriction must satisfy six statutory conditions. Jacobs Consultancy, which prepared the Part 161 study to support the curfew, explained in the Executive Summary that "a central tenant of the six statutory conditions is that a restriction on aircraft operations to reduce noise (often referred to as an abate- ment measure) must be more cost-effective than a measure that lessens the impact of noise (often referred to as a mitigationmeasure)." The primary mitigation measure used at Bob E-Iope Airport is an ongoing residential sound insulation program. So, the focus of the Part 161 study was to quantify the marginal savings to the sound insulation program versus the marginal cost to aircraft operations of three mandatory curfews considered (a full curfew, a curfew on departures only, and a curfew based on aircraft noise level). The Part 161 study concluded that monetized benefits of a full mandatory curfew amounted to $67 million, which would outweigh costs to airlines, passengers, cargo carriers, and general aviation totaling $55 million. T'he cost of a full curfew would be borne iargely by cargo caniers and courier services, according to the study. The next most-impacted category of users would be corporate jet operators ar�d the least impacted users would be air carriers and their passengers because most carriers already comply with a voluntary curFew which applies during the same hours as the proposed mandatory curfew. The full curfew would eliminate the nighttime noise problem while the other curfew options would substantially reduce it, the study concluded. The airport authority explained that "new access resiric- tions are required to have a posirive benefit-cost ratio under Part 161, although achieving a positive ratio is not a guarantee that FAA will approve a proposed measure. The $67 miliion in benefits of the proposed curfew are largely based on savings that would occur by a reduced need for residential acoustical treatment near the airport with the curfew in place." The airport authority also does not have to choose the restriction with the greatest benefit-cost ratio, Airport Authority spokesman V ictor Gill explained. In the case of the three curfew options considered for Bob Hope Airport, the departure curfew has the greatest benefit-cost ratio (2.54), foll owed by the noise-based curfew (1.22), fol lowing by the full curfew (1.21). 31 CostBenefit Analysis Revased FAA was critical of the initial approach the airport authority wanted to take in doing the cost/benefit analysis of the proposed curfew. That approach was submitted to the agency for review and guidance in 2003. In May 2004, the FAA declared that the airport authority's initial approach to determining tlie benef�ts of the curfew was unacceptable because it considered benefits outside the 65 dB DNL contour and quanrified and monetized nighttime awakenings of residents near the airport. The FA.A also said that the airport's current voluntary nighttime curfew had a compliance rate of almost 9'7 percent and questioned whether any further restriction of operations at night was warranted. The agency also said that the proposed mandatory curfew, to the extent that it impacted "quieter aircraft," might be unjustly discriminatory. Based on the feedback from the FAA, the airport authority revised its approach to the cost/benefit analysis. Among the changes made were dropping the idea of monetizing awaken- ings and, instead, surveying residents near Bob I3ope Airport and nearby Van Nuys Airport (where planes would be diverted due to the curfew) to determine how much they would be willing to pay to not have nighttime flights. Also, estimates of increased home values that the curfew would provide were limited to the area within the 65 dB DNL contour. The Executive Summary of Bob Hope Airport's Part 161 Application for a Proposed Curfew is posted on the airport authority's website at www.bobhopeairport.com. `Ua�tested Tera-itoa-y' C C Reaching the point of submitting a Part 161 study to the FAA supporting a restriction on Stage 3 aircraft is "untested territory," said Peter Kirsch ofthe Denver law firm Kaplan Kirsch & Rockwell, which represents the City of Burbank in aircraft noise matters. Burbank has long sought a nighttime curfew at Bob Hope Airport. Several airports have gotten to this stage but no airport has gotten past this stage, he said. Kirsch said the interesting questions to be answered over time are how the airport authority will respond to the comments it will receive from the public and aviation industry on the Part 161 study and whether the FAA will accept the study or put it "in an inf'�nite loop" and demand more work be done on it. Another very interesting issue to watch is how FAA deals with benefits in the analysis that cannot be monetized, such as awakenings and lessening of local political controversy. The agency has said that when doing a cost/benefit analysis it is permissible for airports to consider benefits that cannot be monetized and to value them, Kirsch said. But, he asked, how will FAA deal with that? Another interesting question is what the airport authority says in its submission to FAA regarding the two alternatives � to the full curfew that were considered in the Part 161 study, Kirsch said. One would expect that the alternative with the �' Airport Noise Report ( ' March 14, 2008 highest cosdbenefit rario must be selected but we don't lrnow what FAA will say, he told ANR. Also, the airport authority may gain information in the public review process that requires it to make adjustments in the cost/benefit analysis, he added. Until a few months ago, he told ANR, the airport authority had resisted releasing the draft Part 161 study for comment. But the State of California put pressure on the airport authority to complete the study process in its consideration of whether to extend tlie airport's variance from state noise regulations. The full Part 161 draft study will not be released until Monday (March 17) but the already-released Executive Summary "is intriguing and shows real promise," Kirsch said. "This study is a very important milestone that commu- nities and airports have been waiting for," he said. But, quoting former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan's wazning against "irrational exuberance," he cautioned that there is "still a long road ahead." Newark, from p. 30 Peters also announced that DOT would "move key elements of NextGen — the new satellite-based aviation system designed to enhance efficiency and minimize delays across the nation — from design to delivery this year." Florida will begin serving as the test-bed for the new system this summer, with the introduction ofNe�ctGen at Daytona Beach and the use of a Continuous Descent Approach (CDA) technique in Miami that saves fuel and reduced noise and emissions, she said. Also, ADS-B technology will help increase the capacity of airspace along Florida's Gulf Coast by allowing planes to fly more closely together without compromising safety. In remarks delivered March 10 at tiie Federal Aviation Adminisn�ation's annual Forecast Conference in Washing- ton, DC, Secretary Peters thanked the airlines for their cooperation in reaching an agreement in a cap on operations at Newark. Airlines can avoid service cuts by shifting flights to tirnes of the day when the airport has unused capacity, si�e said. Acting FAA. Administrator Robert Siurgell told the conference that FAA is accelerating NextGen routes into busy areas like Chicago, Dallas-Ft. Worth, Washington, DC, andNew York. FAA has increased its production of Required Navigation Perfonmance (RNP) routes this year from 50 to 69, he said. RNP and RNAV (area navigation) are capabilities that use an aircraft's onboard technology and Geographic Positioning System (GPS) to fly more accurate flight paths. "NextGen is a transformation and it's happening now, and we're moving ahead," Sturgell said. In terms of the aviation forecast, Sturgell said, "The story for Z008 is clear. The fundamentals of the industry — continued growth, cheap ticket prices — are vibrant down the 32 road. With that said, in the near term, we're seeing a definite pause in growth. We didn't have one in last year's forecast. But this year, it's pretty clear. We're tallcing flat growth in operations and slow growth in passengers." That means that FAA's forecast that passenger levels will reach one billion will slip a year from 2015 to 2016. The pause in growth is caused by hundred dollar a barrel oil, an economic picture in flux, potential airline consolida- tions, and credit market woes, he explained. But, the FAA chief stressed that demand for aviation services will continue to rise in the long run. He predicted that international markets will grow twice as fast as domestic in the next few years, regional carriers will move to larger regional jets that have over 50 seats, and there is still "a big tailwind" for corporate aviation. "All of this activity has implications for various airports," he said. "From an operarions standpoint, we predict that, on average, every year, from now until 2025, we're going to add the equivalent of JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark combined into the system." Santa Monica . . ,; � r �,; � � . ! . � '� � '� ' . . The Santa Monica City Council decided March 11 to delay a vote on an ordinance that would ban the fastest business jets operating at Santa Monica Airport in order to consider a new offer by the Federal Aviation Administration to resolve concerns about runway safery. The offer, outlined in a March 7letter from FI-�,Ei Associate Administrator for Airports Kirk Shaffer, includes four provisions the agency hopes the city will accept in lieu of moving forward with the ordinance, which FAA has threatened to challenge in court. Backing down from its earlier insistence that the city only install an Emergency Material Arresting System (EMAS) — concrete blocks that give way and slow planes that over- shoot a runway — that accommodates jets traveling up to 40 laiots, the FAA said the city could install an EMAS at one runway end that handles aircraft traveling at 70 knots, which the city has insisted is needed. The 70-Irnot EMAS could stop approximately 97 percent of aircraft that operate at Santa Monica, including 90 percent of the faster C and D category aircraft, whose approach speeds exceed 121 knots. The Category C and D aircraft would be barred under the proposed ordinance. FAA also agr-eed to move holding lines on two taxiways to direct noise and emissions away from close-by neighbor- hoods. Neighboring homes would get aircraft sideline noise rather than exhaust noise, which is louder. The agency also told the city that its Air Tra�c Organiza- tion has accelerated work to redesign a departure route that allows aircraft operations at Santa Monica to run indepen- Airport Noise Report March 14, 2008 , . 1 i '� I,�� .�� • ;�.'�•';r John J.

This change would "very substantially decrease" the number of aircraft held idling on the gound at Santa Monica, which will also have a noise and emissions benefit for those on the ground, Shaffer said. Finally, ShafFer said the agency has recently transitioned to electronic Notices to Eiirmen (NOTAMS) and is proposed that two NOTAMS be added for pilots filing flight plans to Santa Monica: one would give the pilots information on best practices to avoid runway overruns ane the other would provide information on Santa Monica's Fly Neighborly program, including operations and noise abatement procedures developed by the city. "I challenged my staff to put aside their previous work on this matter and approach the problem with fresh eyes and a clean sheet of paper," Shaffer to Santa Monica City Manager P. Lamont Ewell. "I believe they have done exactly that, as evidenced by these four elements." But FAA had been directed to rethink its position on runway safety areas at Santa Monica by Rep. 7ames Oberstar (D-MN), the powerful chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure, and California Reps. Jane Harmon (D) and Henry Waxman (D) at a Jan. 29 meeting with the FAA on the matter. Santa Monica Airport was built to FAA's runway safety standards for Category B-II aircraft; not for the faster Category C and D aircraft. FA.A contends that the runways are safe for faster airplanes but the city fears faster planes will overshoot the runways and end up in street and homes just yards from the airport boundary. The airport's runways cannot be extended to provide a longer safety area because of sloping terrain and nearby multi- million dollar homes that would have to be cleared. FAA V6�iil Atfend Mareh 25 City Council Meeting FAA's Shaffer is expected to present the agency's offer to the Santa Monica City Council at a March 25 meeting, when the airport ordinance will be reconsidered and a vote on it taken. The City Council approved a first reading of the ordinance on Nov. 27, 2007. Initial reactions to FAA's new offer indicate that at least some members of the City Council are not afraid to test the ordinance in court. "My %rst reaction to this letter from Mr. Shaffer was that it would make a wonderful paper airplane," Counci]member Kevin McKeown said, according to the Santa Monica Daily Press. "This letter does not break any new ground and I think I could throw a Gulfstream jet as far as I trust the FAA ai this point based on what's happened in the past." AIRPORT NOISE REPORT Anne H.
