CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA AIRPORT RELATIONS COMMISSION MINUTES May 13, 2009 The regular meeting of the Mendota Heights Airport Relations Commission was held on Wednesday, May 13, 2009, at 7:00 p.m., in the Council Chambers at City Hall, 1101 Victoria Curve, Mendota Heights, Minnesota. The following Commissioners were present: Liz Petschel, Chair; Robin Ehrlich, Vice Chair; Bill Dunn, Joe Hennessy, Sally Lorberbaum, Lyle Odland and Dave Sloan, Commissioners. Also present were: Jim Danielson, City Administrator; Jake Sedlacek, Assistant to the City Administrator; and Mary Heintz, Recorder. Not Present: None. Approval of Minutes Commission Sloan requested a correction to page 3, paragraph 3, to read "Mr. Bergman reported that FedEx, UPS and DHL are getting out of the freight business." A motion was made by Commissioner Lorberbaum, seconded by Commission Sloan, to approve the minutes of the April 15, 2009, ARC meeting as amended. It was approved by majority, with Vice Chair Ehrlich and Commissioners Hennessy and Odland abstaining. Unfinished and New Business A. SFL Listening Meeting Update — Chair Petschel The main topic of the Sunfish Lake listening meeting was RNAV. Participation was poorly attended because of lack of publicity. Chair Petschel had brought up the issue of inequitable use of 12L at night and was recorded in that evening's minutes. Commissioner Hennessey suggested that a more equitable use of 12L might be obtained if more gates on the Gold Concourse were used at night. It was Commission consensus that it would be worthwhile, as their operations are consolidated, to have a conversation with Delta about their plans and lease agreements and how decisions are made. It was also reported that Chad Leqve of MAC received confirmation that Dermis Mattson is the designated Inver Grove Heights NOC representative and Janelle Pepin is the alternate. Commission Meeting —May 13, 2009 + Mendota Heights Airport Relations Commission B. 2030 MAC Comp Plan Update — Chair Petschel and the City Administrator C The Long -Term Comprehensive Plan Update was distributed, which reflected passenger boardings increased at a 90% load capacity. HNTB was used for MAC forecasting. Ldo,wO-S,- Commissioner Lorberbaum reported that the Plan is for elta Airlines and its partners to utilize the Lindbergh Terminal and all other airlines the Humphrey Terminal a, an amenities should mirror each other. Parking is the largest income source for the terminals, followed by passenger facility charges. Discussion ensued regarding other projects, including the projected taxiway between the ends of runways 12R and 12L. Should the Humphrey Terminal be utilized more, there would be need to better navigate between the runways. It would be an engineering and A 44 financial challenge because the project would require reconstructing part of the freeway. �uGa �� n4 Southwest Airlines has exceeded all ex ectations ,ice, -corrin _. to MSP which took 15 k� f ._years._ Employees love to work there and jets turnaround much faster because pilots are ��y,tr'ktil not unionized and clean passenger cabins between flights. o fi� C. 2009 Plan of Action The Airport Noise Plan of Action was reviewed and revised. The Assistant to the City Administrator will make the Commissioners' changes and bring back to the ARC for further review and changes.

Mr. Carl Rydeen, MSP ATCT Manager 631134th Avenue South Minneapolis, MN 55450 Dear Mr. Rydeen, The City of Eagan is aware of the temporarily closure of Runway 12L/30R for reconstruction this summer, and appreciates the investment being made to maximize safety at MSP. In partnership with the MAC, we are making all efforts to communicate to our residents the impacts of the. temporary closure. In 2007, during the reconstruction of the south parallel runway, the City of Mendota Heights respectfully requested that the airspace south of Runway 12R/30L be utilized to the greatest extent possible during the closure. At that time, the City of Eagan understood the concerns of Mendota Heights, and noted that a similar request would be made by Eagan when the time came for the north parallel runway to be reconstructed. Therefore, as the City anticipates the closure of Runway 12L/30R for reconstruction this August through October, we now respectfully request that the airspace south of Runway 12L/30R be utilized during the runway closure in an effort to fan as much noise as possible throughout the Eagan/Mendota Heights Corridor. On behalf of the City, thank you for your attention to the matter and for your ongoing recognition of the importance of minimizing airport noise across the communities. Sincerely, A 4yu�� Mike Maguire Mayor Cc: Jim Danielson, Mendota Heights City Administrator Chad Leqve, MAC Manager of the Aviation Noise and Satellite Programs 04/01/2009 - 04/30/2009 Eagan/Mendota Heights Departure Corridor Analysis Minneapolis -St. Paul International Airport AN 'j Colvr r R7 .... . .... *This report is for informational purposes only and cannot be used for enforcement purposes.

Green State Airport WARWICK LIKELY TO CHALLENGE RUNWAY EXTENSION; SAYS DEIS BASED ON OLD DATA The fundamental problem with the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for proposed improvements at T.F. Green Airport — including an extension of the main runway — is that it is based on outdated 2004 baseline assumptions and forecast data, the City of Warwick, RI, told the Federal Aviation Administration in comments submitted April 22. The city has already reviewed the DEIS but it will not be released publicly until June 3, when the FAA will hold a public meeting in Warwick on the environmental study, which was prepared by Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, Inc. (VHB). The city is likely to challenge the Final EIS when it is released and is already putting money aside for legal costs, William DePasquale, the city's principal plan- ner, told ANR. Although T.F. Green Airport is located in the center of the city, Warwick's zon- ing authority over the airport has been usurped by the State of Rhode Island, which ( considers the airport to be critical state asset, he explained. Three options are under consideration for extending the airport's 7,600 -foot (Continued on p. 46) Research STUDY LOOKING AT ENVRONMENTAL IMPACT OF NEW TYPE AIRCRAFT ON AIRSPACE SYSTEM Wyle Laboratories announced May 6 that it is participating in a National Aero- nautics and Space Administration study due out early next year that will provide valuable insights into how the National Airspace System (NAS) will be trans- formed by new aircraft technology and new operational concepts. For instance, Wyle explained, "the study will provide a new understanding of how new -generation supersonic aircraft can be operated within the NAS without causing adverse environmental impacts. The results will also break new ground on the modeling of environmental interdependencies and contrail formation." Wyle is conducting system -level environmental assessments for the NASA study, led by Raytheon, to introduce advanced vehicles and concepts into the Na- tional Airspace System as planned under the NextGen Concept of Operations (ConOps). The study, Wyle explained, represents a comprehensive effort to explore trade- offs among procedures, vehicle characteristic, and overall NextGen performance for four new vehicle classes, namely Very Light Jets (VLJ), Supersonic Bizjets (SSBJ), Super Heavy Aircraft, and Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS). These new aircraft types (referred to as N+2) are expected to enter commercial (Continued on p. 46) Airport Noise Report In This Issue. , . T.F. Green ...

Green, from p. 45 main runway: two options consider extending the runway to the north to either a length of 8,700 feet or 9,350 feet; the third option considers extending the runway to 8,700 feet to the south. Until the DEIS is released publicly, it is unknown what the noise impact of these extension options would be. In a 50 -page critique of the DEIS, Warwick Mayor Scott Avedisian said, "Instead of using the most current, pertinent information to determine the environmental effects associated with the build options, the study ignores the substantial and fundamental changes that have occurred within the airline in- dustry and world economy and instead relies on 2004 base- line assumptions and forecasting data sets. "The fact that the study is predicated on 2004 baseline as- sumptions and forecasting is puzzling in light of data indicat- ing a 16.3 percent decrease in passenger traffic at T.F. Green Airport since the 2004 forecast — roughly one million passen- gers shy of what had been predicted," Mayor Avedisian told Richard Doucette, manager of Environmental Programs in FAA's New England Region. "The FAA itself, at its 34th Annual Aviation Forecast Conference in March, recognized the dramatic change, revis- ing downward by 8 percent its own forecasted domestic pas- senger enplanements this year and changing the year from 2016 to 2021 that airlines in the United States would reach a billion passengers" the mayor wrote. Without update, the 2004 baseline data and assumptions of service will undoubtedly support the runway extensions, the city told FAA. The city also was critical of the Statement of Purpose and Need in the DEIS. The reason the project was needed shifted from being able to provide non-stop service to the West Coast to "efficiency," depending on the author or date of the study material, the city told the FAA. DePasquale told ANR that, after Southwest Airlines began service at T.F. Green, there was pressure to extend the runway to allow non-stop service to the West Coast and to es- tablish the airport, a mid-sized hub, as an international gate- way for flights taking the Iceland route to Europe. But Southwest has moved out of T.F. Green to Boston Logan In- ternational and it is not likely that any airline would opt to provide non-stop service to the West Coast from T.F. Green in the future because the load factor would not be high enough to warrant it, he said. DePasquale also questioned why the FAA was basing its DEIS analysis on Boeing 767 operations, which are only a small percentage of the fleet mix at T.F. Green. The 767 is a very heavy aircraft that needs a longer runway, he said, adding that, with more modern engines, the 767 could take off from the current runway. The planner said that his greatest fear is that the runway will be lengthened needlessly and cut into an established community that was built in the 1960s. The various runway extensions options would require tak- ing from 112-186 homes and relocating two major roads to .R the north and south of the airport, DePasquale said. "The City of Warwick currently offers one of the most af- fordable and diverse housing markets in the state," Mayor Avedisian told the FAA. The DEIS, he said, "does not thor- oughly evaluate the long-term, cumulative (past and present voluntary [home] acquisition programs) quality of life and economic consequences associated with the elimination of one of Warwick's most affordable neighborhoods." Noise, Air Analysis Called Inadequate In it comments to the FAA, the City of Warwick asserted that the DEIS analysis of noise impacts of the proposed air- port improvement project is inadequate. "The noise analysis is incomplete and outdated, lacking a complete technical and objective analysis of substantive changes in the fleet mix, with only limited use of supplemen- tary noise measurements that would refine the 1NM (Inte- grated Noise Model) modeling that has recognized limitations as to its effectiveness in representing perceived noise within the community," the city told the FAA in its comments. The supplemental noise metrics used in the DEIS were Time Above (TA), Number of Events Above (NA), and Maxi- mum Noise Level (Lmax). But Warwick told the FAA that the noise analysis also should include the Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) and Sound Exposure Level (SEL) metrics. "Noise events occurring during a period of low ambient background noise are perceived differently often causing greater annoyance that is more accurately measured by the CNEL metric," the city said. The SEL metric, it said, "would assist in assessing cumulative noise exposure at a noise -sensi- tive location during a single event, valuable in an urban set- ting that often has many noise events occurring at the same time." The city also told FAA that it objects to the lack of radar data detailing the deviations to the approved Part 150 noise departure paths for the years 2005-2008. Inclusion of such data would show a greater noise impact, Warwick said. The city also objected to FAA's use of INM Version 6. 1, which was updated by Version 7.0 in April 2007 and later to Version 7.0a. Research, from p. 45 service in 2020 and to meet stringent goals for noise and emissions reduction and fuel burn. NASA's targets for N+2 aircraft are a cumulative 42 dB noise reduction from Stage 4 levels; a 75 percent reduction in NOx, and a 40 percent re- duction in fuel burn. Those targets are more stringent than those set for so- called N+1 aircraft (those that will enter commercial service in 2015) but less stringent than N+3 advanced concept air- craft that have not even been designed yet. The N+1 aircraft emissions targets are a cumulative 32 dB noise reduction from Stage 4 standards, a 60 percent re- duction in NOx, and a 33 percent reduction in fuel burn. Airport Noise Report May 8, 2009 47 The ambitious environmental targets for N+3 aircraft are a 75 percent reduction in NOx, a 70 percent reduction in fuel burn, and having the 55 dB DNL contour at every airport be within the airport boundary. The Wyle study with Raytheon will look at the impact of N+1 and N+2 aircraft on the national airspace system, ex- plained Jawad Rachami, Wyle's director of program develop- ment. Wyle is using advanced environmental tools, including the FAA's Aviation Environmental Design Tool (AEDT) and NASA's PCBoom model, to conduct noise, sonic boom, emissions, fuel burn, and contrail formation analyses for sev- eral NextGen scenarios. These analyses include the assess- ment of tradeoffs between environmental impacts (noise and emissions) and operational performance (e.g., capacity, fuel bum). Using .TPD® 2025 Model as Baseline The baseline case being used in the study is the Joint Planning and Development Off'ice's model for what die na- tional airspace system will look like in 2025 with NextGen technologies, Rachami said. Wyle has added the new aircraft types expected to enter sei vice by 2020 into that model to determine their environ- mental impact. But, Rachami said, each new aircraft type was carefully analyzed in terns of how and where it would be used and what current aircraft it would replace. So, the modeling being done by Wyle is much more complex than simply adding the new aircraft types into the JPDO airspace system model for 2025. The study, the firm said, "involves a series of complex tasks due to its focus on a future NAS condition complete with new vehicles and new procedures." The firm said that it has worked closely with Raytheon and other industry stake- holders to define the environmental attributes of the Very Light Jets, Supersonic Business Jets, Super Heavy Aircraft, and Unmanned Aerial Systems. Wyle said that it also has worked with the research team, NASA, and the FAA to de- velop a modeling framework using AEDT that will effec- tively assess the environmental constraints and inter- dependencies of NextGen Vehicles. "The results of this study will provide valuable insights into the issues associated with a NAS transformed by new aircraft technology and new operational concepts." NASA and the FAA, Wyle explained, are undertaking several other research efforts that will benefit from the con- clusions and recommendations developed under this study. These efforts include NextGen implementation plans and re- search into new environmentally -friendly aircraft designs and concepts. Wyle is an active participant in NASA's ad- vanced vehicles program (N+3) and is a key member of the FAA's team charged with the development and roll-out of AEDT. Wyle said that its role in conducting the environmental analysis for this NextGen research has provided its staff with unique capabilities in assessing environmental tradeoffs for both system -level traffic and terminal airport operations, and its airspace modeling includes concepts such as Super Den- sity Operations and 4-D trajectories that will be afforded under NextGen. NextGen will allow for reduced vertical and horizontal aircraft separation that will result in Super Density Opera- tions. NextGen also will allow 4-D trajectories, which is also known as free -flight. Van Nuys Airport I r r As expected, on May 4, the Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) Board of Airport Commissioners recommended that the Los Angeles City Council adopt an ordinance requiring the gradual phaseout of Stage 2 aircraft at general aviation Van Nuys Airport, a measure strongly pushed by Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa. Within a few weeks, the ordinance will be considered by the L.A. City Council Trades, Commerce, and Transport Committee. It is unclear whether other Council committees will seek review of the ordinance. However, it is expected to go before the full City Council within the next months. If the ordinance is approved by the City Council, it could be challenged by any one of several parties that expressed op- position to it in comments to LAWA, including the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA), the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), as well as the cities and avia- tion authorities that own the nearby airports expected to get the Stage 2 general aviation traffic that will no longer be able to operate at Van Nuys. LAWA said that the Stage 2 aircraft that would be phased out at Van Nuys would most likely divert to Bob Hope Air- port, Los Angeles International Airport, Camarillo Airport, Chino Airport, and Williarn J. Fox Airfield. LAWA received comments opposed to the Van Nuys Stage 2 phaseout ordinance from the Burbank -Glendale - Pasadena Airport Authority (proprietor of Bob Hope Airport), the San Bernardino County Department of Airports (propri- etor of Chino Airport), the cities of Burbank, Chino, and El Segundo (near LAX), as well as from the LAX Airport Advi- sory Committee, which represents communities around that airport. They argued that shifting Stage 2 operations to their air- ports would increase their aircraft noise and emissions and contended that the Environmental Impact Report done by LAWA had not adequately assessed that impact. Some, such as NBAA and the Burbank -Glendale - Pasadena Airport Authority asserted that the Van Nuys Stage 2 phaseout ordinance is not grandfathered under the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990 (ANCA), which means it is not subject to the onerous costibenefit study requirements im- posed by the Federal Aviation Administration's Part 161 reg - Airport Noise Report May 8, 2009 48 ANR EDITORIAL ulations adopted pursuant to the act. C �y7 �r T� However, FAA recently told LAWA that it would consider the ordi- ADVIS V tti`i BOARD nance to be grandfathered under ANCA if the phaseout exempted Stage 3 and 4 aircraft, which it does (21 ANR 41). FAA's concurrence that the or- dinance is exempted is likely to make that a more difficult argument to John J. Corbett, Esq. make in a legal challenge. Spiegel & McDiarmid Washington, DC Carl E.

"We want to take a systematic approach" to defining research needs, Raquel Girvin, manager of the Noise Division of the FAA's Office of Environment and En- ergy, told ANR in a May 15 interview. FAA is seeking to have a clear understanding of the state of knowledge on air- craft noise effects, to identify the research gaps, and to determine what needs to be done to close those gaps. To gain that understanding, the agency will gather a broad spectrum of experts, not just in the United States but in the international commu- nity because a lot of research on the impact of aircraft noise has been done in other parts of the world, Girvin explained. Researchers don't agree on the research findings to date in the area of aircraft noise impacts, she said. "We want researchers to agree on how to do studies and analyses so they can agree on the results." (Continued on p. 54) Research HICK -OFF MEETING HELD FOR ACRP PROJECT SEEKING TO OPTIMIZE AIRCRAFT DEPARTURES An internal kick-off meeting was held recently on a project being conducted under the Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) that will seek to optimize aircraft departure procedures in order to reduce fuel burn, noise, and emissions. The project team for the 18 -month, $300,000 ACRD Project 02-12 includes Wyle Laboratories, the Georgia Institute of Technology, and the Department of Transportation's Volpe Center. Under phase one of the project, which is expected to take seven months to com- plete, a series of initial case studies will be prepared to help develop a protocol to optimize departures for reduced environmental impact, Rawad Rachami, Wyle's di- rector of program development, explained. Under phase two of the project, he said, the research team will conduct an im- plementation study using a full airport case study. It also will develop guidance on how to optimize noise abatement departure procedures for both environmental and capacity constraints. Rachami discussed the study in a recent Wyle bulletin. Wyle has produced a draft project plan, he said, which it will review with its team members, the ACRP program manager, and the ACRP project oversight panel. Following approval of ( (Continued on p. 55) Airport Noise Report In This Issue... FAA ... The agency plans to develop a research roadmap that will define the current state of knowledge on the impacts of aircraft noise ex- posure, identify research gaps, and determine what needs to be done to fill those gaps.

The LAWA Board approves a grant of $9.2 million to the City of Inglewood, located next to LAX, to supplement a $12 million FAA grant to the city to fund soundproof- ing of approximately 834 dwellings - p. 55 May 22, 2009 54 FAA, from p. 53 Noise experts, in particular, have been critical of the way noise impact has been determined in some studies on the im- pact of aircraft noise exposure conducted by health experts. Later this year, the FAA will begin to hold a series of workshops on the status of research in specific areas, such as sleep disturbance, annoyance, and the effect of aircraft noise on children's ability to learn. The agency wants those workshops to be attended by na- tional and international experts and researchers, government representatives, and representatives of the aviation industry and community groups. Prior to conducting those workshops, Girvin, who holds a doctorate in Transportation Science, plans to release a white paper entitled "Advancing Noise Impact Research," which currently is undergoing internal FAA review. The white paper will serve as the starting point for the road -mapping work- shops, outlining the current state of knowledge on aircraft noise impacts, defining knowledge gaps, ongoing relevant projects, and potential approaches to closing knowledge gaps, and discussing expected research outcomes. Hopefully, Girvin said, the road -mapping process can be completed within a year. But the pace of the follow-on re- search process will depend on future funding and that is un- known at this point, she added. In addition to holding the workshops, the systematic ap- proach FAA is taking to developing the research roadmap also will include the following: - Placing priority on mining and analyzing/re-analyzing exiting data for new insights and use as the basis for future research plans; - Cultivating research partnerships that go beyond tradi- tional noise researchers and include the international commu- nity; - Pooling research resources; and - Leveraging advanced information technology as much as possible. At some point, Girvin said, field studies may be done in some research areas if it is decided they are needed. "But that will not be the first step," she stressed. Adequacy of DNL Metric One of the areas the road -mapping process will consider is whether community annoyance to aircraft noise still corre- lates well with the DNL (Day -Night Average Noise Level) metric used by FAA to determine significant noise impact. The dose -response relationship between annoyance and DNL exposure is expressed in the so-called "Schultz Curve" which is based on a compilation of many social surveys done over 20-30 years ago on annoyance to all types of transporta- tion noise (rail, road, and aircraft). Even though DNL takes into account the number of air- craft events, the fact is that the nature of air traffic has changed over time, Girvin said. And furthermore, she added, DNL does not account for all the variability found in the an- noyance survey data across communities. Maybe we need to look at other factors that contribute to that variability, she told ANR. "We want to update our understanding of the relationship [between annoyance and DNL]. Does it still apply today? If so, we want to be able to tell the public that is the case." But if the relationship between annoyance data and DNL has changed, what then? FAA has long-standing policies that deal with significant noise impact in terms of mitigation and land use, she ex- plained. "We have to provide policy makers with information before it can be determined if those policies would ever change." FAA's primary decision-making criterion for determining whether a project will have significant noise impact or whether land use is compatible with airport operations is the 65 dB DNL annual average exposure. The question of whether the DNL noise metric should be used to assess community annoyance with aircraft noise gained currency in 2007 when a major British survey of 2,733 households around 16 airports in England, done for the UK Department of Transportation, concluded that people were more amioyed by aircraft noise in 2005 than they were in 1982 and that averaged noise metrics, such as DNL, do not adequately account for increases in the numbers of aircraft operations that have occurred in the past several decades. However, the study was criticized by UK and U.S. acousti- cians as being based on biased data (20 ANR 9). Six Research Areas Defined Already, Girvin said, the following six critical aircraft noise research needs have been defined by various advisory committees, the public, noise consultants, the aviation indus- try, and the Federal Interagency Committee on Aircraft Noise (FICAN): - Quantifying potential noise impact on health and wel- fare in areas considered noise -compatible (beyond the 65 dB DNL contour). The PARTNER research consortium currently is funding several projects that are studying sleep disturbance, low -fre- quency noise impacts, and health impacts; - Determining whether the basis for establishing signifi- cant impact (% highly annoyed vs. DNL) reflects the current state of community response to today's aircraft noise expo- sure; consider acoustic and non -acoustic factors, response to noise exposure changes from projects such as airspace re- designs, and other metrics and correlations. Several PARTNER projects are studying trends in noise exposure (and surveys that could be used to investigate these trends) and acoustic factors that contribute to annoyance, such as sound characteristics other than loudness and whether the meaning of a sound influences response to it. - Quantifying the impact of aircraft noise (including high altitude overflights) on national parks and wilderness areas; - Studying aircraft noise propagation in all regimes of op- erations (on the ground and in the air) where noise may have Airport Noise Report May 22, 2009 55 effects on the ground, especially for future unconventional aircraft (such as supersonic, open rotor, hybrid wing, and faster/heavier rotorcraft); - Developing acceptability standards and noise impact cri- terion for potential supersonic aircraft overflights and over- flights of other future unconventional aircraft; and - Defining the social cost of noise relative to other envi- ronmental impacts. Research from p. 53 the work plan, Wyle will immediately conduct a thorough re- view of existing literature of relevance to the project. The objective of the study is to develop a departure opti- mization methodology to (1) quantify potential reductions in fuel bum and source emissions, (2) estimate possible in- creases in air traffic capacity that can be achieved by opti- mizing departure procedures while continuing to address noise exposure for communities around airports, and (3) ac- count for existing and future fleet mixes and improvements envisioned under NextGen, Rachami explained in the bul- letin. "In the context of current noise abatement departure pro- cedures, this methodology should estimate environmental and capacity -related benefits associated with the following localized contributors: (a) source noise reduction in future engine/airframe technologies, and (b) realistic alterations to present noise abatement departure procedures to help regula- tors and airport management make environmentally optimal decisions. Although novel approaches to compare the im- pacts of climate change, degraded air quality, and community noise are welcome, the output of this research should, at a minimum, provide directly quantifiable metrics." Noise Expected to Remain Biggest Impediment Rachami said in the bulletin, "Despite notable technolog- ical advances in aircraft technology, aviation noise is ex- pected to remain the biggest impediment to the expansion of airport capacity in the next 20 years. Virtually all major envi- romnental campaigns against airport and air traffic expansion have centered on community concerns over noise exposure. This resistance continues despite the phase-out of Stage 2 aircraft and the resulting decrease in overall noise exposure at many airports. So, in a way, the benefits enabled by new technology have not been effectively converted to gains in terms of system capacity and efficiency. What makes noise such a contentious issue is the fact that it is perceptible and potentially disruptive to community activities. And that is why opposition to airport expansion on the basis of noise ex- posure is more common than community concerns over other environmental impacts, such as local air quality. "In fact, concerns over climate change and local air qual- ity are just beginning to gather momentum prompting calls for new regulatory schemes to curb emissions of CO2 and other hazardous air pollutants—this despite the fact that avia- tion contributes less than 3% of global GHG emissions. Al- though air quality impacts are not as perceptible to the com- munity as is noise, it is likely that opposition to airport ex- pansion in the years ahead would include concerns over local air quality and climate change. "There is also a general concern that forecast levels of air traffic growth may outpace the introduction of environmen- tally -friendly and fuel-efficient aircraft technology over time despite the short-term economic downturn. And it is a known fact that there are design trade-offs between noise, NOx emissions, and fuel -burn. In a recent study, Wyle concluded that the NextGen goal of reducing population exposure to air- craft noise cannot be met without the accelerated adoption of new aircraft technologies that are analogous to NASA's N+1 targets in the next 20 years—this in order to maintain airport noise exposure on the ground and Landing/Takeoff (LTO) NOx emissions without change given expected growth trends in air traffic. "Yet, the introduction of new aircraft technology is only one part of the solution. Seeking integrated approaches to the optimization of aircraft operations is also an important goal—this along with technological innovation and NAS modernization, can produce a more sustainable growth strat- egy for aviation while achieving meaningful reductions in both environmental impacts and airline operating costs. It is in the interest of all stakeholders, particularly members of the community, to develop a thoughtful evaluation of the costs and benefits of operational alternatives, including what is known as Noise Abatement Departure Procedures (NADP). Stakeholders need such information to decide, for example, whether an incremental improvement in noise exposure justi- fies an increase in total GHG emissions due to longer tracks — or vice versa."

The bill provides historic funding levels ($70 billion) for FAA capital programs between fiscal years 2009-2012: • $16.2 billion for the Airport Improvement Program (AIP), part of which is a set-aside to fund airport noise and emissions mitigation projects; • $13.4 billion for FAA Facilities & Equipment to accelerate the implementa- tion of the Next Generation Air Transportation System (Next -Gen); • $38.9 billion for FAA Operations; and • $1.35 billion for Research, Engineering, and Development (RE&D). The bill also: �" • Increases the Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) cap from $4.50 to $7.00. Ac- cording to the FAA, if every airport currently collecting a $4.00 or $4.50 PFC raised its PFC to $7.00, it would generate approximately $1.1 billion in additional revenue for airport development each year; • Extends the authority for FAA to provide AIP grants to state and local govem- ments for airport compatible land us planning and projects until Sept. 30, 2012. The major environmental provisions in the bill that address aircraft noise in- clude: Prohibition on Stage 2 Aircraft Section 506 of the bill states that after Dec. 31, 2013, civil subsonic jet air- planes under 75,000 lb. must comply with Stage 3 aircraft noise levels within the 48 contiguous states, with limited exceptions for certain temporary operations. These exceptions include: (1) To sell, lease, or use the aircraft outside the 48 contiguous States. (2) To scrap the aircraft. (3) To obtain modifications to the aircraft to meet stage 3 noise levels. (4) To perform scheduled heavy maintenance or significant modifications on the aircraft at a maintenance facility located in the contiguous 48 States. (5) To deliver the aircraft to an operator leasing the aircraft from the owner or return the aircraft to the lessor. (6) To prepare, park, or store the aircraft in anticipation of any of the activities described in paragraphs (1) through (5). (7) To provide transport of persons and goods in the relief of emergency situa- tions. (8) To divert the aircraft to an alternative airport in the 48 contiguous States on (Continued on p. 58) Airport Noise Report In This Issue... FAA Reauthorization ... The House passes and sends to the Senate legislation to reauthorize the programs of the FAA for fiscal years 2009-2012. The bill mandates the phaseout of Stage 2 business jets; establishes the CLEEN Engine and Airframe Tech- nology Partnership, as well as an environmental mitiga- tion pilot program at six air- ports and an aircraft departure queue management pilot program, The bill authorizes the FAA to provide grants to air- ports with approved Part 150 program to assess proposals to implement new flight pro- cedures. It directs the PANYNJ to conduct Part 150 studies at its airports; makes permanent the ACRD research program; requires NRC to review FAA's environmental re- search programs; authorizes funding for airspace re- designs; authorizes a rule- making to determine whether Westchester County's night curfew may be reinstated; and more - p. 57 May 29, 2009 58 FAA Reauthorization, from p. 57 account of weather, mechanical, fuel, air traffic control, or other safety reasons while conducting a flight in order to per- form any of the activities described in paragraphs 1-7. Steve Brown, senior vice president of Operations at the National Business Aviation Association, told ANR that the five-year phaseout time period for the phaseout was the com- promise reached in the House and it remains to be seen what will happen when the Senate takes up the bill. Grant Eligibility for Flight Procedure Assessments Section 504 of the bill allows the Secretary of Transporta- tion to make a grant to an airport operator to assist in com- pleting environmental review and assessment activities for proposals to implement flight procedures at airport that have approved Part 150 airport noise compatibility programs. The FAA Administrator may accept funds from an airport operator, including funds provided to the operator under the Act, to hire additional staff or obtain the services of consult- ants in order to facilitate the timely processing, review, and completion of environmental activities associated with pro- posals to implement flight procedures at airports with ap- proved Part 150 programs. The CLEEN Engine and Airframe Technology Partnership The bill directs the FAA to enter into a 10 -year coopera- tive agreement with an institution, entity, or eligible consor- tium to carry out a program for the development, maturing and certification of continuous lower energy, emissions and noise ("CLEEN") engine and airframe technology to reduce aircraft environmental impacts and energy usage. Section 505 of the act establishes the CLEEN Research, Development, and Implementation Partnership. The Adminis- trator of the FAA, in coordination with the Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, are di- rected to enter into a cooperative agreement, using a competi- tive process, with an institution, entity, or consortium to carry out a program for the development, maturing, and certifica- tion of CLEEN engine and airframe technology for aircraft over the next 10 years. The following performance objectives for the CLEEN Partnerhsip are to be achieved by September 30, 2016: (1) Development of certifiable aircraft technology that re- duces fuel burn by 33 percent compared to current technol- ogy, reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. (2) Development of certifiable engine technology that re- duces landing and takeoff cycle nitrogen oxide emissions by 60 percent, at a pressure ratio of 30, over the International Civil Aviation Organization standard adopted at the 6th Meet- ing of the Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection, with commensurate reductions over the full pressure ratio range, while limiting or reducing other gaseous or particle emissions. (3) Development of certifiable aircraft technology that re- duces noise levels by 32 Effective Perceived Noise Level in Decibels cumulative, relative to Stage 4 standards. (4) Determination of the feasibility of the use of alterna- tive fuels in aircraft systems, including successful demonstra- tion and quantification of the benefits of such fuels. (5) Determination of the extent to which new engine and aircraft technologies may be used to retrofit or re -engine air- craft to increase the integration of retrofitted and re -engined aircraft into the commercial fleet. To cavy out the CLEEN Partnership, the bill provides $20 million for FY 2009, $25 million for FY 2010, $33 mil- lion for FY 201, and $50 million for FY 2012. Beginning in fiscal year 2010, the bill directs the FAA ad- ministrator to publish an annual report on the program. Environmental Mitigation Pilot Program The bill authorizes the FAA to fund six projects at public - use airports to take promising environmental research con- cepts into the airport environment to demonstrate the technology's ability to reduce aviation impacts on noise, air or water quality in the airport environment. The Federal share of the project is 50 percent, not to exceed $2.5 million per project. In selecting among applicants for participation in the pro- gram, the bill requires the Secretary of Transportation to give priority consideration to applicants proposing to carry out en- vironmental mitigation demonstration projects that will: (1) achieve the greatest reductions in aircraft noise, air- port emissions, or airport water quality impacts either on an absolute basis or on a per dollar of funds expended basis; and (2) be implemented by an eligible consortium. The bill allow the Secretary to develop and publish infor- mation on the results of environmental mitigation demonstra- tion projects, including information identifying best practices for reducing or mitigating aviation impacts on noise, air qual- ity, or water quality in the vicinity of airports. The term "environmental mitigation demonstration proj- ect" is defined in the bill as a project that: (A) demonstrates at a public -use airport environmental mitigation techniques or technologies with associated bene- fits, which have already been proven in laboratory demon- strations; (B) utilizes methods for efficient adaptation or integration of innovative concepts to airport operations; and (C) demonstrates whether a technique or technology for environmental mitigation identified in research is practical to implement at or near multiple public -use airports; and capa- ble of reducing noise, airport emissions, greenhouse gas emissions, or water quality impacts in measurably significant amounts. Airport Noise Report C May 29, 2009 59 Aircraft Departure Queue Management Pilot Program Section 508 of the bill establishes the Aircraft Departure Queue Management Pilot Program. The Secretary of Transportation is directed to carry out a pilot program at not more than five public use airports under which the FAA will use funds made available under the legis- lation to test air traffic flow management tools, methodolo- gies, and procedures that will allow air traffic controllers to better manage the flow of aircraft on the ground and reduce the length of ground holds and idling time for aircraft. In selecting from among airports at which to conduct the pilot program, the Secretary must give priority consideration to airports at which improvements in ground control efficien- cies are likely to achieve the greatest fuel savings or air qual- ity or other environmental benefits, as measured by the amount of reduced fuel, reduced emissions, or other environ- mental benefits per dollar of funds expended under the pilot program. Not more than a total of $5 million may be expended under the pilot program at any single public -use airport. Not later than three years after the date of the enactment of the legislation, the Secretary must submit to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation of the Senate a report containing: (1) An evaluation of the effectiveness of the pilot pro- gram, including an assessment of the tools, methodologies, and procedures that provided the greatest fuel savings and air quality and other environmental benefits, and any impacts on safety, capacity, or efficiency of the air traffic control system or the airports at which affected aircraft were operating; (2) An identification of anticipated benefits fiom imple- mentation of the tools, methodologies, and procedures devel- oped under the pilot program at other airports; (3) A plan for implementing the tools, methodologies, and procedures developed under the pilot program at other air- ports or the Secretary's reasons for not implementing such measures at other airports; and (4) Such other information as the Secretary considers ap- propriate. Regulatory Responsibility for Aircraft Noise, Emissions Standards Section 510 of the act requires the Administrator of the FAA to make appropriate arrangements for the National Academy of Public Administration or another qualified inde- pendent entity to review, in consultation with the FAA and the Environmental Protection Agency, whether it is desirable to locate the regulatory responsibility for the establishment of engine noise and emissions standards for civil aircraft within one of the agencies. The review shall be conducted so as to take into account: (1) The interrelationships between aircraft engine noise and emissions; (2) The need for aircraft engine noise and emissions to be evaluated and addressed in an integrated and comprehensive manner; (3) The scientific expertise of the FAA and the EPA to evaluate aircraft engine emissions and noise impacts on the environment; (4) Expertise to interface environmental performance with ensuring the highest safe and reliable engine performance of aircraft in flight; (5) Consistency of the regulatory responsibility with other missions of the FAA and the EPA; (6) Past effectiveness of the FAA and the EPA in carrying out the aviation environmental responsibilities assigned to the agency; and (7) The international responsibility to represent the United States with respect to both engine noise and emissions standards for civil aircraft Not later than 6 months after the date of enactment of the legislation, the Administrator of the FAA must submit to Con- gress a report on the results of the review. The report must in- clude any recommendations developed as a result of the review and, if a transfer of responsibilities is recommended, a description of the steps and timeline for implementation of the transfer. Airport Noise Compatibility Planning Study for PANYNJ Airports Section 513 of the Act states that it is the sense of the House of Representatives that the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey should undertake a Part 150 airport noise compatibility planning study for the airports that the Port Authority operates as of November 2, 2009. The House said that in undertaking the study, the Port Au- thority should pay particular attention to the impact of noise on affected neighborhoods, including homes, businesses, and places of worship surrounding LaGuardia Airport and JFK Airport. Research on Design for Certification of New Technologies Section 905 of the bill requires that, not later than six after the date of enactment of the Act, the FAA, in consulta- tion with other agencies as appropriate, to establish a research program on methods to improve both confidence in and the timeliness of certification of new technologies for their intro- duction into the national airspace system. Not later than one year after the date of enactment of the act, the FAA must develop a plan for the research program that contains objectives, proposed tasks, milestones, and five- year budgetary profile. The Administrator shall have the National Research Council conduct an independent review of the research pro- gram plan and provide the results of that review to Congress not later than 18 months after enactment of the Act. Airport Noise Report 2009 Airport Cooperative Research Program Section 907 of the bill changes the status of the Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP), which is managed by the Transportation Research Board for the FAA, from a pilot program to an established program. The ACRP program includes many environmental re- search projects. Review of FAA's Energy and Environmental - Related Research Programs Section 911 of the bill requires the FAA Administrator to enter into an arrangement with the National Research Council for a review of the FAA's energy- and environment -related re- search programs. The review must assess whether: (1) The programs have well-defined, prioritized, and ap- propriate research objectives; (2) The programs are properly coordinated with the en- ergy- and environment -related research programs of NASA, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAH), and other relevant agencies; (3) The programs have allocated appropriate resources to each of the research objectives; and (4) There exist suitable mechanisms for transitioning the research results into the FAA's operational technologies and procedures and certification activities. A report containing the results of the review must be pro- vided to the Committee on Science and Technology of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation of the Senate within 18 months of the enactment of the Act. Funding for Airspace Redesigns Section 219 of the bill expresses the finding of the Con- gress that "the airspace redesign efforts of the FAA will play a critical near-term role in enhancing capacity, reducing de- lays, transitioning to more flexible routing, and ultimately saving money in fuel costs for airlines and airspace users." The bill authorizes to the FAA to carry out airspace re- design initiatives that the FAA Administrator deems neces- sary $14.5 million in FY 2009 and $20 million for each of fiscal years 2010, 2011, and 2012. Rulemaking on Westchester County Airport Curfew Three Democratic congressional representatives from New York — Nita Lowey, Eliot Engel, and John Hall — an- nounced that the FAA Authorization Act of 2009 includes an amendment they introduced requiring the FAA to undertake a rulemaking process to determine whether Westchester County may reinstate its overnight flight curfew. "Those who live around Westchester County Airport un- derstand that business and traffic have increased and the air- port has become an important gateway to and from the New York metropolitan area," said Lowey. "It is critical for those 60 who are most affected by air noise and the airport's environ- mental impact to have the opportunity to demonstrate why an overnight flight curfew is important." "Westchester County Airport is an important part to the economic health of the region, however the people of Westchester deserve the peace and quiet which led them to move to the county in the first place. They have a right to a quality of life which is not adversely affected by the airport. I believe the mandatory overnight flight curfew is a logical way to maintain that standard of living. It is certainly not ask- ing too much for airplanes to take off and land at reasonable times," said Engel. The Lowey/Engel/Hall Amendment, adopted unani- mously, requires FAA to engage in a rulemaking process re- garding Westchester County's efforts to reinstate its overnight flight curfew. This affords Westchester County the opportu- nity to demonstrate the need for the curfew to reduce environ- mental impact, including aircraft noise. Westchester County Airport has had voluntary restrictions between midnight and 6:30am since the early 1980s. How- ever, business at the airport has expanded tremendously, with more flights disregarding the curfew, which disrupts commu- nities throughout the overnight hours and makes the County's environmental upkeep in the area more demanding. The amendment directs FAA to evaluate Westchester County's request to reinstate its overnight curfew, potentially easing congestion in the heavily -trafficked New York air- space and providing the residents in both New York and Con- necticut with needed relief from overnight operations. Fair Home Purchase at Waterbury -Oxford Airport Rep. Chris Murphy (D -CT) said that he had scored a vic- tory for the residents of Middlebury's Triangle Hills neigh- borhood in their efforts to work with the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CormDOT) and the FAA in addressing noise and safety concerns stemming from Water- bury -Oxford Airport. Murphy said he secured approval of an amendment to the FAA Reauthorization Act that ensures that residents of the Triangle Hills neighborhood, whose homes are potentially el- igible for purchase by the federal government per CormDOT and FAA plans, will be provided a fair purchase price regard- less of how the effort to address noise and safety has nega- tively affected their home value. "My amendment is part of an ongoing effort to help the residents of Triangle Hills and make sure they get the relief they are owed. As plans to purchase Triangle Hills homes are approved, homeowners need to get a fair price. This amend- ment makes that much more likely," said Murphy. Murphy has heard from residents of the neighborhood that due to efforts to address increased traffic at the airport, their property values have been adversely affected. Murphy's amendment will ensure that the FAA must consider how FAA involvement may have decreased property values when mak- Airport Noise Report May 29, 2009 ANR EDITORIAL ADVISORY BOARD John J.

In February 2008, Murphy met with representatives from the FAA about the needs of the homeowners who live in the Triangle Hills neigh- borhood around Waterbury -Oxford Airport. Murphy pressed for the FAA to provide adequate compensation for homes eligible for purchase and for flexibility for homeowners to move into replacement homes as soon as possible. The FAA confirmed that they can provide assistance as soon as ConnDOT completes all required studies. In March 2009, Murphy met with Governor M. Jodi Rell, State Sena- tor Robert J. Kane, and State Representative Anthony J. D'Amelio about the Triangle Hills situation to urge ConnDOT to complete all studies as soon as possible. And Murphy secured over $1.1 million in the Fiscal Year 2009 budget process to provide for the implementation of the ongoing noise mitigation study and the mitigation plan developed with the community from the findings of the noise study. "I want to personally thank Congressman Murphy. From the get -go, he got involved in this horrendous situation in Triangle Hills, and he has followed through on it. He is a man of his word, and I am very grateful," said Middlebury First Selectman Thomas Gormley. "This is another important step in providing fair relief for the home- owners of the Triangle Hills neighborhood. I will continue to hold trans- portation officials' feet to the fire to make sure long -overdue assistance is delivered in the best, fairest manner possible," said Murphy. Study of Helicopter Noise over Long Island A provision in the bill added by Rep. Tim Bishop (D -NY) instructs the FAA to study helicopter flights over Long Island. The study will ad- dress specific areas, such as establishing fixed routes and altitudes for helicopters, in order to address noise and safety concerns. "Those of us who live in Suffolk County are tired of the roar of heli- copters disrupting the serenity of our island," said Bishop, a member of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. "Although there have been improvements for some communities due to new flight patters, a significant problem still exists, so I have directed the FAA to take ac- tion." Bishop's provision states that the study must be submitted to Congress within six months of enactment of the legislation. "This study is a necessary step towards the goal of reducing helicopter noise over Long Island," Bishop said. "I believe it will offer a roadmap for pilots who want to fly over Long Island in a way that is respectful to our communities." /.IM=1 41- 8_01 Anne H.

Among many other allocations, the President highlighted several funding priorities for the Department of Transportation and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The FY 2010 budget allocates a total of approximately $16 billion to the FAA under the Department of Transportation (DOT). Furthermore, the budget provides approximately $865 million for the Next Generation Air Transportation System, a long- term effort to improve the efficiency, safety, and capacity of the air traffic control system. The 2010 budget provides funds to replace the existing ground-based radar surveillance system with a more accurate satellite -based surveillance system, develop more efficient routes through the airspace, and improve aviation weather information. The Administration has also requested $1 billion toward a high-speed rail grant program. This funding will build upon the $8 billion down payment in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, and marks the President's commitment to achieving a practical and environmentally sustainable alternative to flying or driving, while at the same time investing in projects that create jobs and spur economic growth. A similar argument was addressed in previous NOISE conferences and in the "Planes, Trains and... " article featured in the Washington Post on May 6, 2009. The article essentially stated an effective high speed rail system may decrease the frequency of shorter flights, as high-speed rail would give those fliers a reliable alternative.

The FAA Reauthorization is intended to amend title 49, Unites States Code, to authorize appropriations for the FAA for fiscal year 2009 through 2012, improve aviation safety and capacity, to provide stable funding for the national aviation system, among many other purposes. After months of sitting in Committee, on May 21 the House passed the bill including a number of amendments. The manager amendments offered by Chairman James Oberstar (D -MN) provide a number of safety measures, permit the Secretary to make grants to airport operators and units of local government for soundproofing certain buildings, and for the first time requires the owner or operator of a large hub airport to publish on the Internet a phone number to receive aviation noise complaints and report such complaints to the FAA. The House passed FAA reauthorization also includes a number of NOISE priorities including: Local Government Funds: Extend authority for FAA to provide AIP grants to state and local governments to conduct compatible land use planning projects until Sept. 30, 2012, commonly referred to as "Section 160". This innovative program as originally authorized Vision 100 in the 2006 FAA Authorization Bill. 2.

Environmental Mitigation Pilot: Authorized the FAA to fund six pilot projects at public -use airports to take promising environmental research concepts into the airport environment to demonstrate the technology's ability to reduce aviation impacts on noise, air, or water quality in the airport environment. The federal share of the project is 50 percent, not to exceed $2.5 million per project. 4. Prohibition on State 2 aircraft: Requires, within five years, all civil subsonic aircraft under 75,000 lbs. to meet State 3 noise levels within the 48 contiguous states, with limited exceptions for certain temporary operations. 5. Environmental Assessment Funds: By allowing the FAA to provide AIP grants to airports to fund environmental reviews and assessments of such procedures that have been approved as part of an airport's Part 150 airport noise compatibility program. 6.

Randolph "Randy" Babbitt to head the FAA. Babbitt is the former president and chief executive officer of the Airline Pilots Association (ALPA), career pilot for now - defunct Easter Air Lines, and aviation consultant at the Oliver Wyman Group. In 1999, Babbit was nominated by President Clinton to serve as a member of FAA's Management Advisory Council, and was elected its chairman in 2006. He also served on an aviation safety task force created last year. Sources indicated that Babbitt's confirmation is expected to help ease tension between the FAA and the National Air Traffic Controllers Association, which clashed during the previous administration. NOISE Executive Director, Dennis McGrann is a member the FAA Rulemaking Advisory Committee. The Committee will hold a meeting on June 10, 2009 to address a variety of aviation related issues and improvement proposals. The FAA created and tasks the Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee (ARAC) to provide advice and recommendations concerning a full range of aviation -related issues. NOISE PROPOSES AMENDMENT Federal Aviation Regulation, Part 150, Airport Noise Compatibility Planning, is the primary Federal regulation guiding and controlling planning for aviation noise compatibility on and around airports.

NOISE proposed revisions to the FAA Advisory circular for the part 150 process to include public review and comments of the draft Noise Compatibility Program (NCP) ACRP UPDATE Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) currently has a new project pending, 02-12: Environmental Optimization of Aircraft Departures that will explore the full range of possible noise abatement departure procedure tradeoffs that will optimize of noise, emissions, and fuel burn. The objective of the project is to develop a departure optimization methodology to quantify potential reductions in fuel burn and source emissions, estimate possible increases in air traffic capacity that can be achieved by optimizing departure procedures while continuing to address noise exposure for communities around airports, as well as account for existing and future fleet mixed and improvements envisioned under NextGen. In the context of current noise abatement departure .procedures, this methodology should estimate environmental and capacity -related benefits associated with localized contributors such as, source noise reduction in future engine/airframe technologies and realistic alterations to present noise abatement departure procedures to help regulators and airport management make environmentally optimal decisions. Ultimately, the output of this research should provide directly quantifiable metrics. r.. r� use Complete : T sw.` r vYVF For further information please see http://www.trb.orgfrRBNet/ProjectDispigy.as p?ProjectID=2575 or contact Clint Morrow at clint.moffow@nle.com or Jawad Rachami at jawad.rachami@, , lw le.com NOISE will continue to work diligently on behalf of all those affected my airport and aviation noise with the Members of the Congressional Delegation on the aforementioned issues and continuously report back with updates.
