Airport Noise Regulations and Policies, Exams of Transportation Engineering

DeVry University - VirginiaTransportation Engineering

A comprehensive overview of the key regulations, policies, and programs related to aircraft noise management at airports in the united states. It covers the national environmental policy act (nepa), the aviation noise abatement policy (anap), far part 36 noise certification, the airport safety and noise abatement act (asna), the airport noise and compatibility act (anca), and various noise measurement and modeling tools like the day-night average sound level (dnl) and the integrated noise model (inm). The document also discusses noise mitigation strategies such as land acquisition, sound insulation, and preferential runway use. Additionally, it covers airport marketing and air service development programs, including the essential air service (eas) and the small community air service development program (scasdp). A valuable resource for understanding the complex regulatory framework and best practices for addressing aircraft noise issues at airports.

AAAE CM Module 4
Questions with Correct Answers
Graded A+
National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) - Correct answer-catalyst for public
awareness and response to aircraft noise issues, required assessment of noise effects for
airports undertaking major projects
Aviation Noise Abatement Policy (ANAP) - Correct answer-Secretary of Transportation and
FAA adopted. clarified FAAs responsibility to reduce aircraft noise, abate the impact of noise on
populated areas and attain compatible land use adjacent to airports
FAR Part 36-Certificated Airplane Noise Levels - Correct answer-mandated change in design
inturbojets to help eliminate engine noise,Stages 1-4 with 4 being quietest, aircraft over
12,500# must meet Stage 4
Airport Safety and Noise Abatement Act of 1979 (ASNA) - Correct answer-basis for noise
abatement planning at airports, required FAA to establish requirements to simplify and
standardize noise compatibility planning and programs
Part 150 Land Use Compatability - Correct answer-adopted as a result of ASNA, noise control
achieved through compatible land uses around airport, developed Noise Exposure Maps
(NEM) & Noise Compatibilty Programs (NCP)
Airport Noise and Compatibility Act of 1990 (ANCA) - Correct answer-airports prohibited from
adopting overly restrictive or punitive anti-noise ordinances, created Part 161 Notice and
Approval of Airport Noise and Access Restrictions-placed a cap on number of Stage 2 aircraft
over 75,000lbs maximum takeoff weight allowed to operate in the US
3 Goals of ANCA - Correct answer-1. phase out noisier aircraft
2. place limits on local user restrictions
3. establish non-restrictive noise abatement and land use actions
Day/Night Average (DNL) - Correct answer-standard used for forecasting cumulative noise
exposure under Part 150 studies, a 24-hour average sound level, with 10 decibel penalty from
midnight to 7am and 10pm to midnight, noise is averaged every second over a 24hour period
Integrated Noise Model (INM) - Correct answer-determines DNL noise contours area for a
specific mix of aircraft and produces maps used for land compatibility
Aviation Environmental Design Tool (AEDT) - Correct answer-replced INM, software that
models aircraft fuel consumption, emissions, noise, and air quality consequences
