CAC to study noise-abatement technologies after members share federal letter and research toolkit
Summary
Lorraine Ramsay shared a press release about a bipartisan letter to the U.S. Transportation Secretary calling for 'airplane noise reduction'; the CAC deferred technical discussion to a future meeting once a specific list of technologies is compiled and members were advised to review Transportation Research Board guidance.
The committee deferred a substantive discussion of noise-abatement technologies until its next meeting when members can present a definitive list of options and suppliers. Lorraine Ramsay introduced a press release describing a bipartisan letter sent to the U.S. Transportation Secretary, Sean Duffy, calling for "airplane noise reduction," and said she would circulate the release to members.
Liaison Paul Worcester said he had also shared documentation from the Transportation Research Board of the National Academies and recommended members read the report "Aircraft Noise: A Toolkit for Managing Community Expectations (2009)" to frame community engagement and expectations. The CAC listed noise technologies and outside groups as agenda items for the next meeting.
