Introduction of invited quests Receipt of Communications There were no invited guests. Minneapolis Council Member, Steve Minn, introduced himself as James Serrin's alternate for the City of Minneapolis. C Chairman Johnson said a couple of letters were received over the past month regarding a block in Richfield that would like to be considered for the Part 150 Sound Insulation Program. � Chairman Johnson explained that MASAC was not authorized to change or modify the federal rules regarding Part 150 eligibility. He said the residents' representatives would have a chance to speak at the end of the meeting. � 4. Technical Advisor's Runwav Svstem Utilization Report and Complaint Summarv Traci Erickson, Technical Advisor, presented the April, 1997 Technical Advisor's Report. The highlights of the report are as follows: 0 ➢ Traci apologized for not being able to mail the Technical Advisor's report with the agenda, but would make a concerted effort to include that information in next month's mailing. � Traci pointed out that the ANOMS count for April 1996 was not available due to problems encountered last year when the FAA moved into its new tower location. ➢ Daily Operations from the FAA Airpo�t Traffic Record have increased over last month (March 1997) from 1306 to 1363. This increase is largely due to an increase in commuter and general aviation operations, not air carrier jets. ➢ The number of complaints regarding ground noise increased over last month. Traci said she checked the run-up logs to check if one run-up pad had been used more than the others and found that the run-ups had been spread out. She said that there had been a lot of maintenance done during the month. John Richter, Minneapolis, asked at what time the run-ups had been done. Traci said that they were primarily during the day. Each nighttime run-up had a written explanation as to why each aircraft had to be run-up at night, as is required by the MSP field rule. Mr. Richter asked how many were at night. Traci said she did not have the exact number, but that it was a handful. Joe Lee, Minneapolis asked Traci why there were a large number of arrivals over Minneapolis over the past weekend. Traci said that there were very strong winds that required departures and arrivals on the 11's. 2 5 � > ➢ 9 ➢ i Traci noted that although the percentage of available time for runway use :on runway 29 over Minneapolis had increased, the actual number of operations was low�according to the Community Ove►flight Analysis. t Traci reiterated that the April 1996 data was not available. � � Traci noted that that only 4.7 days of ANOMS data was missing this month, which was an improvement over the 8 days that were missing from last month. � Traci noted that there was no data available for April 6�' because the network's operating system was changed and the back-up systems were not set up correctly. �iJoe Lee, Minneapolis, asked if that day had been figured into the analyses. Traci said that it hadn't. ANOMS Update Traci Erickson, Technical Advisor, briefed the council on the problems with th'� diskpack reader. She said the system is continuing to lose data. She also sa had switched over to an optical disk reader two weeks prior (2 months earlier� Traci said that there is no longer a way to read the data. The two options stai obtaining authorization to p�ocure direct connect capabilities or using an optic an optical disk reader is used, the data will need to be converted into a formai use. Traci said staff is no longer able to impo�t data into ANOMS and the Ma Advisor's report will not be complete. Traci noted that the MAC fully supports program because of its impact on a number of projects. i Chairman Johnson asked Traci to brief the council on the status of the Differe Positioning System (DGPS) ground station. Traci told members that the com� DGPS ground station was on schedule for commissioning by the end of June�. that during the AAAE conference, Honeywell and staff hosted flights on Hone� flies against the DGPS. She noted that a number of decision makers were inv Traci said aircraft certified to fly against the system will be allowed to use it. Continental Airlines is the only carrier to have aircraft prepared for certificat ANOMS � that the FAA han expected). is looking at is il disk reader. If that ANOMS can Technical :he ANOMS tial Global issioning of the Traci mentioned vell's G4, which �d on the flights. rrently, Chad Leqve, MAC, reiterated that there are a number of players that will have to work together in order to get the DGPS system to a point where it can be used for noise abatement purposes. He said the FAA, the air ca�riers and the airport will all have to work together to fully utilize the technology. He said that it will be a big cultural change for the FAA because of how the airspace could change around the airport. � Ed Porter, Burnsville, asked what the expected time frame was to have the DGPS system operating fully. Traci Erickson said that it was in the FAA's strategic plan to li i ve sole GPS by the year 2010. Citv of Sunfish Lake and DHL Airwavs Membership Vote Chairman Johnson introduced the Executive Committee recommendation to and DHL AinNays to the MASAC membership roster: 3 Sunfish Lake Article II (4) is hereby emended to adjust #he composition of the Council representation as follows: Replace "one Representative from the Cargo Air Carriers" with "two Representatives from the Carga Air Carriers" And Add "ane Representative from the City of Sunfish i ake" Mark Salmen, NWA, mo#ioned and Glenda Spiotta, Sunfish Lake, seconded to accept bath Sunfish Lake anci DHL Airways as fuli members of MASAC and ta change the by-iaws, as such. A general discussion ensued regarding membership representatian as it corresponds ta noise impact. John Richter, Minneapolis, asked Chairman Johnson if a time could be set for an Executive Committee meeting to discuss passible changes to membership representation. Chairman Johnson said he was not prepared to set a date at that time but would schedule one. Glenda Spiotta, Sunfish Lake, tald council members that Sunfish Lake desired to be part of the aircraft noise soiu#ion and not part af #he repres�ntaiion problem. A va#e was taken. The ma#ion passed unanimously 7. MASAC Bv-Law Quorum Ret�uiremen#s Vote Chairman Johnson introduced #he motion far the amendment to Article lV (1) as: 8trike all existing language and replace with the following: "At all meetings of the Council, attendance by four (4) USER representatives and four (4) PUBLIC represeniatives shalE canstitute a Guocum for ttse conduct af business, pravided that no action reiated to an item not on the published meeting agenda or #o the establishment of the budget, or which wil! �esult in a change in the budget, shall be taken unless there are in attendance and voting thereon at least sixfeen (16} representatives." JiIE Smith, Mendota Heights, said she disagreed with the concepi af having less than a majority of inembers constitute a quorum. She suggested that a quorum constitute one more than half {18} af the eiigibie vo#ing membe�s in any confguratian. She said she believed eight members was not an appropriate number of inembers to make decisions. Jahn Richter, Minneapolis, moved to table the vo#e. A voice vote was taken and the mation passed. 8. Naise Abatement Depa�ture Profiles (NADPs) Vote Traci Erickson, Technica) Advisor, presented staff s recommendation in regards to NADPs. She reiterated that currentiy the distant departure procedure was being used off a11 runway ends. Staff recommended that the "clase-in" procedure be adopted for departures aff runway 29 UR and #he "distan#" procedure be adopted for #he remaining runways {04,22,11 !1R}. Traci said this recommendation was based on what would benefit the airpork's surrounding communities as a whoie. Traci said the secand recammencfation was to leave the NADPs as they were � ( 1 (distant off ail ends). Traci said that the reason for the second recommendation is because the effect will continue to become smaller and smaller due to the increase in the ni�mber of Stage III aircraft that will be used. In the year 2000 when there are only Stage III aircraft, the differences will become negligible. ` • I Chairman Johnson then presented a letter from the City of Mendota Heights that included a �esolution from the City to formally request that MASAC adopt the "close-in" departure profile for 11 UR. Kevin Batchelder from the City of Mendota Heights said that the city adopted this resolution because there were 470 residential parcels in Mendota Heights that"; would benefit from the "close-in" procedure within the 65 DNL. � i Jill Smith, Mendota Heights, explained that one of the reasons for the resolution is because the annoyance level for noise increases logarithmically. She said even a small decrease in noise levels would have a great affect for those closest to the airport. She also noted that the 470 residential parcels did not include two large apartment complexes and two major schools. Traci Erickson, Technical Advisor, said she agreed that the close-in procedurel would benefit Mendota Heights most, but as a whole, the distant procedure would affect mo�re parcels off of 11 UR fo� all communities to the south and east end of the airport. i Chairman Johnson asked Jon Hohenstein, Eagan, to give Eagan's position. Mr. Hohenstein said that Eagan's position was to support staff s recommendation. ,I� Kevin Batchelder and Jill Smith of the City of Mendota Heights reiterated that those people closest to the airport should be given priority because they experience the hig�hest level of noise. I � Dawn Weitzel, Richfield, said she did not feel she was prepared to vote on the� NADP issue. She noted that the information she had from past meetings regarding this issue did not correspond with the information she received at the last meeting. She said she had written a letter to John Foggia and had called and left messages for him so that she could get additional information on the issue. She said Mr. Foggia had not responded. ;� Traci Erickson, Technical Advisor, explained that the data being used for the NADP analysis is parcel data from the individual cities rather than the census data from 1990, which was not accurate. She said that this was why the numbers from past analysis and the� jpresent analysis did not add up. I John Richter, Minneapolis, said that he backed the City of Mendota Heights' rE it affected those closest to the airport. Charles Curry, ALPA, said he supported staff's recommendation and that the � vote on the issue rather than table it once again. � Steve Minn, Minneapolis, asked for clarification from staff on why the option oi in procedure for both 11 VR and 29 UR was not a recommended option. � I Traci Erickson, Technical Advisor, said that staff looked strictly at which proce benefit the most parcels off all ends of the runways, without prejudice to any o 5 because uncil needed to having the close- e would community. Steve Minn, Minneapolis, motioned and Jill Smith, Mendota Heights, seconded to recommend the close-in departure profile for runways11 UR and 29 UR, and the distant departure profile for runway 04/22. The motion was voted on with a voice vote. Chairman Johnson then determined that a show of hands was necessary. Both the Chairman and the Secretary counted the number of hands for and against. The motion was defeated by a vote of 11 to 8. Craig Wruck, St. Paul Area Chamber of Commerce, motioned and Charles Curry, ALPA, seconded to recommend the close-in departure profile for runways 29 UR and the distant procedure off 11 L/R, 04 and 22. Both the Chairman and the Secretary counted the number for and against the motion. The motion passed by a vote of 13 to 7. 9. Report of the MAC Commission Meetinq Chairman Johnson briefed the council on the May Commission meeting. He said the two main items discussed were the Balchen Post Award, which MSP won for snow removal this past winter season, and the lack of fire protection at the reliever airports. 10. Persons Wishinq to Address the Council Chairman Johnson explained that there were several Richfield residents present who had concerns with the fact that their block was not intersected by the Part 150 1996 65 DNL Contour. � Traci Erickson, Technical Advisor, introduced and explained the MSP Noise Mitigation Committee recommendations as they pertained to the Sound Insulation Program. Chairman Johnson explained that there are a number of blocks right outside the contours that are in the same predicament. He said in the next program many of these problems will be ironed out. Dick Keinz, MAC, mentioned that the Richfield residents' concerns would be better addressed at the Policy Advisory Committee (PAC) meeting. Chairman Johnson explained that the PAC helps develop policies on the Sound Insulation Program. He said that the next meeting had just been set for June 17`�' at 12:00 p.m. and was open to the public. A resident asked why these meetings weren't publicized better. Chairman Johnson explained that the PAC meetings were not on a regular basis like MASAC. He said residents should contact their city representative for dates and times. One resident noted that he thought he would get a better response if he were to call the complaint line more often because of the number of reports generated regarding complaints. Traci Erickson explained that the complaint reports were strictly for informational use. She said that decisions were not made based on the number of complaints in any certain area. Residents also had questions about early morning flights (6:00 a.m.) over Richfield. Traci Erickson explained at that time in the morning there is a big departure push. She said traffic is normally operates off the parallels either to the Northwest or the Southeast, depending on the L 11 Weather. Phii McKeown, a Richfeid resident, tald the council abaut when the MAC man home (about 6 or 7 years ago). He said the person doing the manitoring left tt device in his home for one day and came back a# the end of the day ta pick it �� particular day the planes were operating mainly to the Southeast. He said no'; monito�ing was dane a# his home after that. �' I Steve Minn, Minneapaiis, asked about expanding the number af remote maniti the current number of 24. Traci Erickson, Technical Advisor, explained that th� noise at the current pofes is nat used in generating the contours. She said the modeied using a number of generaiized criteria. Traci said that the reason act noise is not an input for the contours is because not all airporks have the equEp ac#uai noise. She said additianai pales have not been purchased because thE in doing so. I � A Richfield r�sident asked if staff had information on how the actual noise lev #he current eantours and, ifi so, how they campared. Traci Erie3eson said they noise data is higher than the contours show. She said the FAA is aware of th A member of the audience asked if any of the members or staff knew about te canducted at C�'Hare Airpa�t in regards ta 22-second departure intervals. No� these tests. John Aamot, FAA, said the FAA does nat use seconds to determ plane departs. � � Ed Porter, Burnsviile, remarked that he felt there needed to be more time to di regarding voting items. He said he was unaware of same of the issues brougt meeting. ! Other Items Not on the Agenda There were no other items. 12.

M/NNEAPOLIS STRAIGHT-OUT DEPARTURE ANALYSIS OUTL/NE Chairman Salmen asked Jim Serrin, Minneapolis, and Joe Lee, Minneapolis, to inf�oduce their proposal regarding straight-out departures off 29R. Mr. Lee and Mr. Serrin said that since those residences straight off runway 29R experience all arrivals onto 11 L, departures off 29R 1 f � . ' should be directed in a heading other than runway heading. Mr. Serrin and Mr. Lee illustrated on the 1996 FAR Part 150 Study Update contour map an area north of runway heading off 29R that experiences few overflights. They proposed that all departures that would normally be given a runway heading off 29R be given a heading other than runway heading. Mr. Lee and Mr. Serrin recognized the fact that there could be nothing done about the straight-in arrivals. John Nelson, Bloomington, asked if Mr. Serrin and Mr. Lee had specific headings in mind. Mr. Serrin and Mr. Lee said they did not have specific headings in mind, nor did they have any proposal as to when the turns could take place. Chairman Salmen said that the issue of where aircraft transition into the national airspace was important, as well. Chad Leqve, MAC, introduced the proposed outline of the straight-out departure analysis staff had developed. (The Straight-Out Departure Gate Analysis Outline is attached.) Chad reiterated only departures in that area of interest would be analyzed. Chad also reviewed an earlier analysis done for this proposal that showed, over a ten-day period in December of 1995, that 23% of departures off the No►th 29 Parallel runway were straight out departures. The total number of departures for 29L and 29R was 1,811, with 11.6% of those being straight-out departures. The total number of departures off 29R was 746, 23% of which were straight out. The total number of departues off 29L was 1065, 4% of which were straight out. Chad stated that they had to keep in mind the FAA would have to agree with any proposal. It was agreed that the findings of the gate analysis would be completed by and reviewed at the next Operations Committee Meeting on July 15�', which was changed from July 11�' due to a schedule conflict. The findings would then be presented to MASAC at the July 22nd regular meeting. Jim Semn, Minneapolis, said he had concems about where the gates were constructed. He said he would like staff to construct an additional gate between 2.5 and 5 miles out to capture some of the tums. Chad said that since staff would only be studying the straight out departures and the tums did not have to be analyzed at this point. Chad reiterated that any proposal would have to be reasonable relative to the FAA (EIS). John Foggia, MAC, reiterated that an Environmental Assessment (EA) would have to be done, hopefully with a Finding Of No Significant Impact (FONSI). John Nelson, Bloomington, asked what timeframe would be analyzed. Chad Leqve, MAC, said that the analysis would include timeframes when there is a healthy amount of straight-out departures. Chad said that although the FAA won't issue headings seasonally, the analysis would analyze seasonalchanges. Jim Serrin, Minneapolis, asked if an analysis could be done for runway 29L, as well. Chad said it could be done easily. A gate could be constructed 20 degrees off that centerline, as with 29R. " r . r y John Nelson, Bloamington, motioned and Joe Lee, Minneapolis secanded to anaiyze the feasibiliiy of adjus#ing departure headings on 29R and 29�. Committes recommends the ARTS data used to conduct the study reflect s and include sufficient numbe�s af operatians to accura#e1y depici departure runways 29R and 29L.

The Commission prioritized and updated the Topics of Interest. The Commission was of the consensus that the following topics were of high interest and should be monitored throughout the coming year: 1. MAC and MASAC Representation. 2. Equity of Current Runway Use System. 3. Noise Abatement Departure Profiles. 4. Global Positioning Satellite Technology. 5. Nighttime Restrictions on Aircraft Operations. The Commission was of the consensus that the following topics be considered medium priority: 6. MSP Long-Term Comprehensive Planning Issues - Expansion of Existing Airport. 7. Prevention of Third Parallel Runway. 8. Noise Measurement Issues. 9. MSP Mitigation Comprehensive Plan. The Commission was of the consensus that the following topics be considered low priority: 10.

Phase Out of Noisy Stage II Aircraft. 14. Aircraft Engine Run-Up Noise/Aircraft Ground Noise During Periods of Departure Over Minneapolis. Commissioner Leuman inquired if the recent change in non-simultaneous departure procedures is an official tower order. Batchelder stated he would inquire with Bruce Wagoner, FAA Tower Chief. Leuman stated that an airplane, on a daily basis, departs over the Mendakota Estates neighborhood between the hours of 4:45 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. A discussion ensued JUNE 11, 1997 - A/RPORT RELATIONS COMM/SS/ON M/NUTES 2 regrading hours of operation at MSP and how the MAC has agreed to discuss the hours of operation with airlines other than Northwest Airlines because Northwest Airlines has voluntarily enforced these hours at MSP:� It was noted that the other carriers at MSP have not agreed to enforcelthese hours of operation. { i The Commission discussed Global Positioning Satellite Technology and the fact that it will help shrink the Mendota Heights/Eagan Corridor.�I Commissioner Gross stated that he is concerned that with this new technology, a corridor may be maintained. Batchelder stated that the new technology may allow the aircraft to land more frequently and at� the same time. Batchelder suggested that the Commission consider inviting a speaker to discuss GPS at an upcoming Airport Relations Commission meeting. Chair Beaty suggested that Harold Pierce, of Honeywell, be invited to �speak on this issue. He stated that Mr. Pierce has spoken to the Commission' in the past. Regarding the prevention of the construction of the third parallel runway, the Commission felt that this issue needs to be monitored. Administrator Batchelder stated that this issue needs to be monitored since there is a concern about MAC action on construction plans that have not been approved through the Capital Improvement Plan. He informed tlie Commission of recent discussions at the P&E Committee to extend Runway 4-22 to 12,000 feet. i� Regarding Nighttime Restrictions, Batchelder stated that Northwest Airlines voluntarily agreed to fly Stage III aircraft between the hours of 1�1:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. Commissioner Des Roches suggested that the City focus on requesting all other carriers adopt the same guidelines as Northwest Airlines. She inquired if other carriers have enough Stage III aircrafts to accomplish such a requirement. The Commission discussed how most nighttime operations consist of cargo aircraft. Regarding Noise Measurement Issues, the Commission felt that this is still an issue and that the Commission needs to continue to monitor the�usefulness of Ldn 65 contour and how to incorporate the ANOMS system into these guidelines. �� i Regarding the Equity of Current Runway Use System, Administrator Batchelder informed the Commission that City staff will continue to publish information regarding the new north/south runway in its HeightslHighlites newsletter. The Commission agreed to keep the public relations Yeffort strong within the community. i� JUNE 11, 1997 - A/RPORT RELAT/ONS COMM/SS/ON M/NUTES 3 Regarding Noise Abatement Departure Profiles, Administrator Batchelder informed the Commission that the Council adopted a Resolution requesting a change in the departure procedures for the Mendota Heights-Eagan corridor. Councilmember Smith attended the MASAC meeting and the City's request was voted down, Ayes: 1 1 Nays: 8. The Commission discussed Mayor Mertensotto's displeasure and how the Mayor is considering no longer being a member of the MASAC. It was noted how the City of Mendota Heights only has one vote on the MASAC as compared to the City of St. Paul who has three votes. Commissioner Des Roches inquired if the request could be reconsidered at a future MASAC meeting. Batchelder stated the Mayor would like to discuss this further. The Commission discussed how the MASAC Executive Committee needs to review its By-Laws. Regarding the MSP Mitigation Comprehensive Plan, the Commission noted that the NDCARC has submitted a letter to Jeffrey Hamiel requesting that he submit a time line of implementation. It was noted that the NDCARC will follow up with this topic since implementation is important. Regarding Phase Out of Noisy Stage II Aircraft, the Commission confirmed that this is in progress and is being implemented through a Federal mandate. This should be low on the Commission's priority list. Regarding the MSP Long-Term Comprehensive Planning Issues, the Commission discussed the construction of the north/south runway construction slated to begin in 1998. The Commission felt that this topic is important to monitor as the EIS will be available soon. Regarding the Metropolitan Council "Noise Zone Map" Update and Related Land Use Controls, Administrator Batchelder stated that the City will need to update a new noise boundary to keep current with the Metropolitan Council's land use planning guidelines. Regarding Aircraft Engine Run-Up Noise, Commissioner Gross suggested that the City send a letter reminding the airlines to monitor this noise.

July 2, 1997 1Viendota Mr. John Himle, Chair Planning and Environment Committee - MAC 6040 28th Avenue South Minneapolis, MN 55450-2799 Dear Mr. Himle: i� City o� Hei��l�ts This letter is to appeal the action taken by the Metropolitan Airport Sound Abate; (MASAC) regarding the Noise Abatement Departure Profile (NADP) procedures.� 1997, MASAC, on a vote of 13-7 recommended that MAC establish a"Close-9 profile for runways 29 L/R only. The action taken by MASAC was contrary to the resolution, a copy of which had been forwarded to Mr. Robert Johnson, the MASE in sufFcient time to be forwarded to all members with their meeting agenda. f �.... - I nent Council On May 27, n" departure city's formal .0 chairman, In addressing noise impacts in communities surrounding MSP, the Metropolitan Airports Commission has established a practice of giving prime consideration to those areas �most heavily impacted by aircraft noise, in particular, those properties with the LDN 65. The MAC analysis on NADP's demonstrates that noise would be reduced for over 470 residential and school properties inside the LDN 65 in Mendota Heights with a change in procedures to tlie "Close-In" option.�� � . ; Since the City of Mendota Heights receives a majority of all departures emanating from MSP it only makes sense to implement the same procedure for 11 L/R that is being im lemented to provide noise relief in south Minneapolis off of 29 L/R. �� The City Council at its regular' meeti.ng last evening directed me to promptly '� respect to the city's position as it relates to the NADP procedures. Accordingly, I � that the MAC Planning and Environment Committee recommend that the "Close-� procedure be implemented for runways 11 L/R. i Sincerely, CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS Qt� � ����--�- Charles E.

NOW, TAFRF.FQRE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Mendota Heights, that Mendota Heights formally requests that the Metropolitan Airports Commission immediately implement the Close-In departure procedure for the Mendota Heights-Eagan corridor.

I appreciate the points that you make and the effoi that you went to to respond to our concems. Nonetheless, several issues remain.' I ThE most significant is the suggestion that it is an obligation of the City to perform DNL analysis to substantiate the effectiveness of less dramatic alternatives. I am unaware any environmental review process where an obligation is placed on commenting agei or individuals to perform the analysis that is the responsibility of the reviewing agenc In addition, if it was our obligation, the reviewing agency would likewise have tlie obligation of informing us of that fact so that we could undertake the work necessary meet your needs. I I of to I also appreciate your sensitivity in suggesting that misunderstandings or inaccurate assumptions are the basis for certain comments, but it would likewise appear that if your agency's analysis identified such misunderstandings that further discussions with� the affected communities prior to a decision would have been warranted. j I am sure you appreciate that the City actively pursues its issues with the MAC MASAC. I also appreciate your assurance that the FAA is interested in cooper the develonment of ineans to mitigate noise effects for the City of Eagan. I wo that future efforts in this regard would involve closer interaction with the affect such that all parties can fully appreciate the perspectives of the others and that 1 considerable work which your agency puts into such reviews can be used to be� lazgest number of people possible.

They contend that the contraciar selection grocess at Blue Grass Airport was incqnsistent with a court of appeals interpretation of CEQ regulations and FAA. orders and guidelines as reqniring the FAA to be the "sole" selectar of the contrac- tor. Each of the three consultant teams on the airport's short list submitted to the FAA inciuded subcontractors with an apgareni "financial or other interest zn the outcome of the project," which, under CEQ and FAA, regulations is disqualifying, Gregory S.

First, he said, the FAA's practice of cedin= to the airport the authoriry to pre-select a short list at' consult- ants from which the FAA must make its choice contravenes the CEQ requirement that the FAA "solely" select the contractor. In Citizens Against Burtington, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled that, once the FAA decides not to prepare an environmental iinpact statemenc directly, it is obli�ed to pick a contractor itself and not to deiegate that respansibiiity to the airpon, Walden said. He alsa criticized the FAA's practice of only reviewing disclosure statements submitted by conuactors after they have been selected to conduct an EIS instead af beforehand. `"The only reading of CEQ guidelines that serves the purposes of NEPA is that the FAA`s review of disclosure statements submitted by contsactars must precede, not follow, the selection of a contractor and the conclusion af the scapina gracess: ' And Walden asserted that the FAA's disclosure form pravided to contractars "is clearly inadequate" to identify confIicts of interest. "`The question of whettter a cantractor plans to seek future projects `prior to completion of the BTS' witI not capture any ptans or intentian to seek future business after the completion of the EIS;' Walden told the CEQ. "The FAA cannat satisfy itseif that a cantractar does not have a`financial or other interest in ths outcome of the project' unless it can canciude that there is no reasanabie expectation that the contractar will be retained by the airport to wark on the groject following completian of the EIS,'" he said. Pracess Shauid Begin Again Noting that a CEQ review of FAA's contractor selection process couid reguire a substantial invesunent af time and resources, Walden asked the CEQ to request the FAr�. ta refrain from proceeding with the Blue Grass EIS uncil such review is completed. He also asked the CEQ to advise the FAA to be�in anew the cantractar seiectian process for the Blue Grass EIS. The CEQ has not officially responded yet to Walden's request. He met recently with CEQ ofFicials an the matter, but declined to discuss what happened at that meetinQ. The attorney toid ANR he does not know haw widespread the con#7icts af interes[ he has identified with the consultants involved in th� Blue Grass EIS are. He has confined his review to only Blue Grass Airport. But he told the CEQ that the FAA's conduct at Blue Grass, to date, "has abjectiy faiied ta ensure a fair and disinterested environmental review as contemplated by NEPA and CEQ resuiations and �uidance." %ie urged the CEQ to review the situation at Blue Grass Airport because "the inte�riry of the EIS contractor selection process and the objectivity of an EIS are central to the purposes" of NEPA. The issues raised in the Biue Gr�ss c�se are also likely to arise in other asencies and thus further guidance from the CEQ ta federal aaencies may be necessary," he told Bear. Walden turned ro the CEQ after unsuccessful]y attemptin� ta resolve the issue with the F�A.. Blae Grass Airport officials defended their action, contending they have simpiy foltowed the process defined by the FAA. Donald Sexton, director of operations for the airport, told ANR that airpon ofFicials met with the FAA prior to soiicitinD proposa3s far the EIS and went over the agency's Quidelines for the contractor selection process. "Those auide]ines were followed," he said. Sexzon said that, as far as he knew, the process used at Btue Grass Airport was similar ta that used at other airports. Blue Grass Airpqrt received solicitatipns from seven contractors to gerform the EIS on its groposed new runway. It selected three contzactors from that list of seven and presented them to the FAA, which ranked them in order of its preference. Landrum & Brown was the FAA's first choice to perform the EIS, foilowed by Greiner, Ine., and HNTBI{1�uest. Each of these three main consultants, in turn, assembled teams of subcontractars ta help prepare the IIS. Walden's initial abjections were with three of the subcon- tractars on the Landrum & Brown team, but Landrum & Brown recentiy drapped out of the EIS groject because it could not reach agreement with the airport on the cost af the EIS. The subcontractars on the Landrum & Brown team to which Walden objected were: • Newton & Associates, which WaIden toId the CEQ "has a lon�-standing and ongoing financial relationship with the airpot�t." Newton & Associates dropped aff of the Landrum & Brown team last October and recently dropped off af the Greiner team as weli; • Kimley-Horn and Associates, which Walden said the airport retained in I994 ta provide maintenance and repair work on the runway, A review of Kimley-Horn's disclosure statement revealed that the campany is cnrrentty under contract with the airport to provide carao marketing support, although the company said is currendy is not actively working to that end. Walden told the CEQ that "there is every reason to believe tiiat the airport wauld `reactivate' this cantract if the 9,400 foot runway project were approved by the FAA following the EIS becnuse the airport has justified a 9,400 faot runway on the expectation that it would atoract cargo operatians." • GRW Engineers, Inc., which Walder► said also has a long-standing re}acianship with the airgort. Landrum & Brown noted that GRW has done the planning and design far mnch of the aviation -related facilities at the airport since 1970. Walden told the CEQ that "there is every reason to expect that tile airpart wiil turn ta GRW to work on its expansion project if approved fallowing the EIS." Since Landrum & Brown is now aut of the running for tl�e AirpoR Noise Report 3une 7497 EIS project, the airport has turned ta the FAA's second choice on its list: Greiner, Inc. But Walden aiso raised objections to members of the Greiner team, includin�: � Newtan & Associates; • PDR En�ineers, which prepared a June 1995 Master Plan Update that Walden contends is "seriousiy flawed," and which has done ather work for the airport board over the years; • Mr. Bitiy J. Lanaley, manaaer of Greiner's Memphis Branch, who previously served as mana�er of the FAA's Memphis Airports Disuict 4ffice and therefare wouid have been substanually involved with the Blue Grass Azrport's quest for another air carrier runway, Walden told CEQ. The FAA infarmed Walden on lune 12 that Newtan & Associates has dropQed off of the Greiner team; that Bi11 Lan�ley withdrew from the team "far personal reasons," and that PDR Engineers remains on the tearn.� Farks , from p. 7� Washingtan, DC, and on Aug. 4-5 in Denver. The workina b oup has been able to quickly reach consensus on severai broad issues related to the air tour '' problem, but the July meeting is expected to be pivotaI because it will be at that point that it will become evident whether aa eement can be reached on same of the more thomy issues the working b aup must address. The tnast difficult issue for the b onp wi3l be how to come up with a way ta determine when air tours will be allowed over parks and when they will na� The working grc�up must develop criteria and procedures that can be used ta make such determinations. Crucial to develoging such criteria aze answers to the still unresolved issues of wha controis the air space over the parks (the FAA or the Park Service) and how exactIy to define the term "natural quiet" and to determine when and where is it crucial to have natural quiet. The aviation industry regresentatives on ihe warking group are expected to dig their heels in on the matter of who cpntrols the air space aver national parks. 'I'lsey fear that if the FAA loses control of some air Space, the system wi11 be fractured and coutd become unsafe. The working o oup members a�reed at the autset not to talk to the press, but Steve Bassett, president of xhe US Air Taur Assaciatzon, toid ANR chat he has been an abserver at the first two meetings and is "cautiously optimistic" abaut the process underway ta devetog a proposed NPRM. "Each side recagnizes the right of the other side to exist," he said. Bnt until BasseFt attended the workin� � oup meetin�s he was very skepticai of what wouid occur. In a mid-May press release, the US Air Tour Associatian accused the Depart- ment af Interiar and the Park Service oi "re;uiatory manipulation," and strongly objected to the structure and objectives of the warkina � oup set up under the FAA's Aviadon Rulemaking Advisary Cammittee (ARAC). The association, which regresents a�r taur operators and 79 associated companies throu�hout the�United States. accused the Clinton Administration of "setun� up" the air tour industry and char�ed the Park Service with deiiberateiy manipulatinQ the structure and scope �of the workin� �caup to skew the final resuits in favor of mare regulation of air tour aperators nt national parks and more control of the air tour industry by federai land managers. Although Bassett is pleasantly surpC ised with the conduct of the warking aroup thus far, he still stands by his earlier press release which said that "the air �tour industry is beinQ set up by this administratian to ensure that onerous new resvictions on air tour flights at natiainal parks wiil be the final result." G Airport Nois Working Group 'i'tTe members af the workina �roup are Andrew V. Cebula, vice president of the National Air Transport Associaiion; Tam Chapman, vice pr'esident for gavernment affairs of the Aircraft Owners and Pilou Association; David 1.

The working o oup will submit its final repart ta the Natianal Pazk Service Advisory Baard and the FAA Aviatzan Rutemaldng Advisary Committee. These grougs will then forward capies to their res�ective agencies. The NPS Advisary Board and ARAC wiil make subsequent recommendations ta a Senior Interagency Working Group set up by both degartmentx to coord�nate the development of the proposal. p NPRM is expected out by the end af the year, with a final ruie in place by next summer, zf — and that cauld be a big if— ihe working a oup can reacli consensus on a propasal. � � The task statement for the work�ng o aup sets the fqllow- in� expectations far the progosed NPRM ttte working �roup is being asked to develop: �� • That it be "pracess oriented and � pplicable ta any unit of the natianal park system where commercial sightseeing air tour operatians are identified as hav�ing or potentially having adverse effects on park resources or the visitor experience"; • That is "be designed to faci]itate prablem preventian at garks where a groblem does not yet exist"; • That it "be desi�ned to resolve conflicts at ar mitigate adverse effects to those gark units where commercial air tour aperations are having adverse effects an park resources and visitor experiences" and; I� � • That it provide for "apgrapriate public input at the park i level."0 � f e Report gp Airport Noise Report Burbank AIRPt�RT GETS LAND NEEDEZ} FOR TER�MINAL Despite intense last-minute legal maneuverin� by the City of Burbank and the State af Califarnia, the Burbank- Gtendale-Pasadena Airport Authority took possession of a 130-aere tract of iand needed for a new airport terminai on June 8, as scheduied. But while the airport now has awnership af the land it needs for a new terminal, it has been barred by caurt order from doing anythino with the land except cleaninQ it up until a state court determines whether California law requires the airpart to Cet approvaI of its expansion project from the City of Burbank, where the land is located. On 7une 5, the Second District Court of Appeai rejecied a petition by the City af $nrbank ta prevent ttte arder af gossession for the land from taking effect. Qn June 6, two different Superior court jud�es allowed che order to stand in response to last-minute efforts by the City of Burbank to keep the land from changina hands from the Lackheed- Martin Carp. to the airport. "We came out better than we haped," said Thamas E. Greer, executive director of the airport. "We were pieased ta see aur positian upheid that we had a vaiid caurt order giving us the land. But Burbank was also trying to keep us from continuing dematitian and environmental cleanup on the property. That wasn"t in the public's interest, and the judge wasn't going to let that happen." The airport argued the site had been rendeced unsafe by previous demolition efforts by Lockheed-Martin Corp., which farmeriy owned it, and the court aareed to a21aw ttie airport authority ta continue demolitian af buildin�s as well as to remove debris and agply caverings to prevent dust from spreading. The City of Burbank had sought a temporary restraining order to block the airport autharity from doing anything on the land. Superiar Court Judge Carl J. West did not o ant that but did order the airport nat to take any action on the tand other than to ciean it up. Peter Kirsch of the Denver office of t[1e law firm Cutler & Stanfield, which represents the City of Burbank, disputes the airport's notion tt2at it fared well in the court groceed- in�s. "They �at possession of the land but they can't do anything with it, which is the same as not havin� it," he told ,8,r�. Attorneys for the City of Burbank and the State of California toid Judae West at a June 6 hearin� that the airpart authority's acquisidan of the Lackheed property withaut Burbank's approval violaies both state law and the California Canstitution. They told the judge that the airport authoriry has stated publicly that it will not comply with a state statute, Public Utilities Code (PUC) Section 21661.6, because the airport believes it is preempted by federal Iaw. The state law requires the airport autt�ority to first Cet the approvai of the City of Burbank before buiiding iu new terminai. Judge West noted that the PUC law has never been declared invaiid by any court and that the airpan authority is proceeding ta take gossession of the Lockheed property at its own risk, accardino to a Burbank press release. The judne emphasized that no activities related to the proposed expansion of the airport are to go forward priar ta a rulin� on the validity of the PUC Section. The jud�e plans ko set a schedule far a heann� on the PUC case tater this summer. Joint Pawers Agreement Meanwhile, one of several af the laws�its between the airport and the City of Burbank ended June 18 when a Superior Court judge ruled for the third and final time against a Burbank challenge to the 1991 amendment to the Joint Powers Agreemenk formin� the Burbank-Glendale- Pasadena Airport Authority. In aimin, to void the 199i amendment, Burbank's compIaint saught a court interpretation of the 7oint Powers Agreement which woutd have given the city's airpart cammissianers voting rights over the propased replacement terminal at the airport, based on the alleged noise imgact of the prajecL The sait was originally filed a year ago against the cities of Glendale and Pasadena, casigners of the 7aint Powers A�reecnent, and the airport authority was later added as a defendant. Wtrile the court has settled the matter af the Joiat Powers Agreement, there aze stil2 10 ather tegal cases pending on ihe issue of the airpor's expansion. In an effort to aet the dispute over the expansion aut of the courts, the City of Burbank and the airport authority recendy a�eed to once again try mediation to resolve their differences over the new ternunaI. They dropped th� twa mediators they had been using, under which na a� eement was reached, and Irired I?ana Peterson, of the Stanford Law Schaal faculty as a mediator. The California Attomey General had offered to have his office mediate the matter, but the airport authority rejected that proposal because the attorney general has sided with the City of Burbank in its interpretation of the PUC statute,Q Legislation BILL WCiUI.D PUT EPA IN CHARGE OF NOISE RESEARCH PROGRAM On June 25, Sen. Robert Torricelli (D-NJ) introduced the Quiet Communiues Act of 1997, which would autharize funding to revive the Environmental Protecdan Agency's long-darmant O�ce of Noise Abatement and Cantral (ONAC) and put it once again in charge af federai noise mitigation efforts. T`he legislation would authorize to be appropriated for ONAC $5 million for each af fiscal years 1998, 1999, and 20f10, and $S million for each of fiscal years 2001 and 2002. Airport Noise Report r � � June 23,1997 Similar lesislation was introduced in the House by Rep. Nita Lawey�{D-NY) at the end of the last sessian of Can�ress and again early this year. Torricelii's bill wautd require the EPA naise office, unfunded since 1982, to coordinate ali federal noise abatement activities, to update or develop noise standards, ta provide technical assistance to locai communides, and to promote research and educatian on the impacts of noise pollution, inciudin� but not lirnited ta aircraft noise. "In the past the Federal Aviation Administration has been responsibie for monitorina noise gaIIution standards. This leaislation will place this task upon the agency designed to grotect the pablic's intereszs, the EPA, and take it from an asency designed to pramote the airIine industry," Torricelii stated at a May 19 news conference in Scotch Plains, NJ, to announced the bill. With airplanes roaring overhead, Sen. Torricelli aad NJ Rep. Bob Franks applauded the efforts Pamela Barsam- Brqwn, executive director of the New Jersey Coalition Against Aircraft Naise {NJCp�AN}, which has been fighting the FAA for 10 years to solve the noise problem created in 19$7 when ttte FAA extensively rerouted aircraft over northern New Jersey under its Expanded East Coast Plan. The press conference announcin� the bill was hosted by Barsam-$rown and hetd in front flf her home. "We know that there is real evidence that people subjected to cantinuaus air noise expasuze suffer reat health coase- queaces," Torricelli said. He said that studies have shown noise pollution can result ia sleep deprivation, hygertension, and has been linked to cardiovascular problems. He said that New Jersey residents are particularly suscep- tible ta the effects af noise poiiution due to the praximity of three major auports: Newark, LaGuazdia, and Kennedy, as weii as regionai airparts across the state. Newark A,.irpart, he said, is naw ranked the third busiest airport in the country with 140,104 flzghts per year. Flanked by represenUatives of enviranmental oraanizations from 13 New Jersey counties and New York Cicy, Tbrricelli said that "noise poilutian is a problem not oniy for those communities affected by the flight paths of Newark, LaC.�uardia, and Kennedy Airports, but for communities near any smali landing strip. This legisladon will help pravide relzef to aII communicies pla�ued by air traffic noise." Centers Would be Reopened The legislation would reopen 10 centers across the country, inciuding one located at Rutgers Universiry in New Brunswick, NJ, ta gather scientific data and anaIyze the impact of air noise on nearby communities. Most impor- tantly, Tarricelli stressed, the Quiet Communiaes Act wouId put the EPA at the center of air noise studies and assure that enviranmental impact wouid be a grimary cancern instead of a secondary issue. Tarricei3i's bill also would require the EPA noise o�ce to submit to Congress and the FAA, within 18 rnonths of enactment of the legislation, a study on airQart noise. Ttze Airport Noise R $1 study must examine the FAA's selection of noise measure- ment methodolaaies, the threshaid �of noise at which health impacts are felt, and the effectiveness of noise abatement pro�rams at airports around the Uni�ed States. Franks Bill on Hald � r Meanwhile, NJCAAN is publicly deridino Rep. Bob Franks {R-NJ) for delaying introduction of a bill, entitled ""iiie Bi-State Air Noise Correctian Act," that wovId require the FAA ro reduce noise levels from� aircraft arrivins and departing frotn Newark Irtternaaanal Airport 6y b d$ aver 80 percent of khe affected re�ion. � The legislation would leave it up to the FAA to determine how ta make such a noise reduction,� which is intended to miti�ate the impact of the aircraft noise problem caused by the Expanded East �oast Plan. i 1 Franks first pled�ed to inuoduce ttie bill in Can�ress last Sep.tember and has znade five promises since then to introduce the measure, accacding to NJCAAN. Tarricelli said that he has delaying# incroduction af his legislation because of concerns express to him by Rep. Raberi Menendez (D-NJ}, whose constittzents Iive ciose to Newark Airport. Rep. Menendez feacs the legislation will only make the noise problezn for his cons�ituents worse. Franks and Menendez are scheduIed ta meet with FAA Acting Directar Barry Valentine on 7uly 15 to discuss the znatter. � � Delaying introductian of the Franks' bill means that NJCAAN "has no Iegisiation in the 1�,O5th Congress ta reference for negotiation or lobbying� on this 10 year controversy" over the Expa�ded East Coast Plan, the coaIiuon said in a press release.d i� Raleigh-Durham Int'l .AIRPORT EXPLAINS CH(JICE OF 55 DNL CONT{JUR �FOR N(JTICE In April, the Raleigh-Durham Airport Authority mailed out natices of "potential aircraft noise impact" ta aver 9,000 awners af praperty near the 12aleigh,Durham Internatianal Airgort in an effart to lceep naise-sensitive people from inadvertendy buying homes near the`airport. But why did the airport autharity ciiaose ia send its notice to residents as faz out as the 5� dB DIVL contour instead of stoQping at the 65 dB DNL cantour vsed in federal land use guideIines as the threshatd of compat�bie land use around airports? I John C. Brantiey, directar of the airport, answered th2s question in recent correspondence ta,ANR following up on an article on the natices that agpeared. in the Aprii 2I issue. Armando Tovar, noise officer for the airport, acknowled�ed in that article that some of the owners� of property lacated in the area between 55 and b5 dB DNL coutd chaIlenge their inclusian in the distribution because their property is ]ocated outside the 65 dB DNL cantour the feideral government used � egart � i i I 82 Airport Noise Report as the threshold of compatible land use around airports. "What appears to be missin�= from the article is the basic reason the authority elected to use the composite 5� dB DNL contour as the notification boundary." Brantley said. He noted that in June 1989 the airport authority was sued by approximately �I50 residential property owners, some of whom lived outside the 5� dB DNL contour, alleging inverse condemnation due to the increase in aircraft noise that was associated with American Airlines establishin� a hub operation at RDU two years earlier. North Carolina law does not permit lawsuits to be filed on the basis of nuisance and/or trespass for allesed dama�e due to noise, Bentley explained. � "In order to resolve the multiple suits which were filed after the state couR refused to cenify the oriQinal class action pleadinQ, the court consolidated the suits and appointed an arbitration panel. The panel considered and ruled on eioht of the cases, findin� that there had been a taking to some extent with respect to properties as far out as, but not beyond, the 5� dB DNL contour. The remainder of the cases subsequently were settle based upon the panel's findings in the first eight cases. The panel's findin�s and the settlement were confirmed by the court, which awarded the Authority avi�ation easements over the properties for which a taking has been determined." Thus, Bendey said, there is now a finding under state law that residential property located as far away from the airport as the 55 dB DNL contour may be adversely affected by changes in aircraft noise su�cient to be considered a taking under the theory of adverse condemnation. `"That is pre- cisely the reason distribudon of the notices was not confined to property within the composite 65 dB DNL contour, but was extended to include property within the 5� dB DNL contour." Bentley stressed that the airport authority "did not take that step arbitrarily nor without �ood reason," but did so because of the outcome of the earlier IitiQation in which it had been the defendant.� FICAN CITIZEN COALITION URGES LIMITS ON AIRPORT POLLUTION A coalition of citizen or=anizations fightin� airport pollution recently called for ti�hter federal re?ulations and �reater airline coopera[ion to limit the environmental impacts of the sharp increases in air traffic predicted in the next 20 years. `"fhe prospect of a triplin� of global air travel, coupled with an anticipated decline in U.S. funds available to fund noise mitigation programs, points to a sisnificant threat of deterioratin� health conditions for millions living near airports," said Dick Saunders, a Minneapolis-based spokes- person for the coalition. "With many of the lar�est U.S. airports nearin= or exceedin� capacity, the costs of new runway construction soarins, and relatively few convenient sites for new airports available, residential communities near established airports will likely bear the lar�est share of the pollution burden in the next two decades," he predicted. "It is therefore incumbent on sovernment a�encies and airlines to work more closely with citizen �roups to develop added safesuards to physical health and community stability, and to adapt flight patterns to reflect community inputs," he said. Saunders outlined a composite list of sug�estions from 10 airport community organizations presented at a public hearing sponsored by the Federal Interagency Committee on Aviation Noise (FTCAN) held in Minneagolis on May 13. FTCAN was established in 1993 to provide a forum for discussion of aviation noise issues and to allow federal agencies to coordinate their aviation noise research activi- ties. The committee is comprised of representatives of federal agencies concerned with aviation noise, including the departments of Defense, Interior, Housing and Urban Development, and Transportation, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Recommendations The citizen coalition told FICAN that they wanted to see: • Development of more accurate ways of reflecting true aircraft noise levels in present computer models defining aircraft noise patterns: "' ' • Recognition of the 55 dB DNL (average day-night noise level) threshold as a starting point for noise mitigation measures, instead of the present 65 dB DNL threshold; • More research into the long term effects of noise on children and senior citizens; • Re-establishment of the EPA's O�ce of Noise Abate- ment and Control, which was closed in the early 1980s at the beginning of the Reagan Administration, ostensibly for budgetary reasons; • Revision of federal law to require airgorts to report toxic emissions such as ozone, volatile organic compounds, and niuogen oxides just as other industrial polluters must; • More attention to public health impacts in environmental impact statements prepared before new runways or airports can be approved by the FAA; • Regulation of tiny airborne particles, such as those found in aircrafr exhaust fumes and soot, which are not covered under present law; • Better monitor hazardous chemicals used in de-icing and other operadons at airports before they leak or are spilled in �roundwater supplies; • Greater use of hi�h-speed rail for trips under 500 miles; and • Study of cutbacks in the disproportionate share of pollution impacts borne by residents living in airline hub cities by dispersing more flights to non-hub cites. Citizen �roups proposing the recommendations to FICAN Airport Noise Report `� June 23,1997 included those located near New York's Kennedy Interna- tianai Airport, Pott Columbus International Airport, ChicaQo O'Hare International Airport; Minneapolis-St. Paul Internatianal Airgon, Denver Internatianal Airpon, San Jose International Airport, Seattte-Tacoma International Airport, and Manchester International Airport in Enaland, as well as northern New 3ersey residents affected by air route chanaes made under the Federal Aviation Administration's Ex- panded East Caast Plan. NOISE Comments Tom Egan, president af the National Organization to Insure a Sound-controlled Environment (NOISE), a�n association of loca3 governments and others concerned abaut aireraft noise, said NOISE is particularly concerned that cunent ]aw governzz�a PassenQer Facility Charges (PF'Cs) includes and exemption which allows airports with apgroved Part 1S0 Airpart Naise Campatibility Programs to use PFC revenue without respecring Part 150 plans, even thaugh the communities surraunding the airport rely on those pians when making their own land use decisians. NOISE affered the following recommendation to FICAN: � Require the FAA ta redefine DNL and to study the health effects of noise; • Require manitoring of SEL (Sound Exposure Levei) by all commercial airports; • Establish incentives to hasten canversian to Stage 3 aircraft; • Establish a Stage 3.5 deadline; • Require meanzngful input by citizens impacted by aircraft noise in National Enviranmental Policy Act reviews and require airport grogrzetors to hoid pubiic hearings for all othec non-rnajor actions that have a noise impact; • Reassess the validity of tl�e Integrated Naise Model; • Amend certain federal laws, such as the housing replace- ment law, that limit lacal governments' ability or increase the cost of noise mitigadan; • ClQpose the progosed drastic reducdon in funding of the statutory 31 percent se-aside for aviatian noise mitigation, from $144 million in fiscal 199'7 to $21 million in fiscal 1998 and oppose a simiIaziy severe prapased rednction in overall Airport Improvement Fcagram funding fro $1.46 billian to $ i bilIion, one resvlt of whic� is to further diminish the funds available to address noise pollution; • Oppose a propased reduction in research, engineerin�, and development funds far environment anci ener�y, which includes the development of quieter aircraft ensine technol- agy, from �4 miltian to $3 million; � • Support adequate funding for the new OfFce of Noise Ombudsman and related commanity advacacy and involve- ment initiatives; • Suppart restoratian of fund'zng arifl functianing for the EPA noise o�ce; • Support research to develop quieter aircraft engines.
