The Beacon Hill Community Noise Team documents noise levels for the purpose of providing relevant local, state, and federal officials with the necessary data to make informed decisions on policies that relate to noise and the health of Beacon Hill residents. In 2018, Beacon Hill community volunteers collected quality-assured, 24-hour noise measurernent data throughout the neighborhood across several months. • More than half of the measurements exceeded the loudness level for which homes located adjacent to an airport will receive mitigation from the Federal Aviation Administration. • More than half exceeded a level to protect public health and welfare as identified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency by 100t% to 800%. • Compared to noise measurements collected by the Port of Seattle for locations closer to the airport, loudness levels in Beacon Hill are similar or louder than locations within 2 miles of the airport. The Team seeks to work with local, state, and federal elected and public health officials and policymakers to reduce the impact of existing and future traffic. We provide resources for residential and school noise mitigation and engage researchers to document and publish effects.
