Noise Exposure Maps Update
- Presents an overview of the airport, airspace, aviation facilities, existing land uses, and local land use policies and regulations.
- Examines the existing and potential demand for aviation activity at the airport.
- Explains the methodology used to develop aircraft noise contours. It also describes the key input assumptions used for noise modeling.
- Presents existing and forecast aircraft noise exposure based on the assumption of no additional noise abatement efforts. This provides baseline data for evaluating potential noise abatement strategies in the second part of the study. It also analyzes the impact of the baseline aircraft noise on noise sensitive land uses and the resident population.
