BAC SP #2 FAA Part 150 Study Record Of Approval 2013 (4 Th Part 150 Since 1985) 0001

The Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (Sea-Tac) Noise Compatibility Program (NCP) includes measures to abate aircraft noise, control land development, mitigate the impact of noise on non- compatible land uses, and implement and update the program.

The airport sponsor has requested that the program measures be applied to the Future 2018 Noise Exposure Map/Noise Compatibility Program (Exhibit 6-2).

The recommendations consist of a continuation or modification of some currently approved measures from the 1985, 1994, and 2002 NCP ROAs. It also includes new measures.

Abatement Measures A-7, A-8, A-13, A-14 and A-17 have been withdrawn. Section 5.2.1 provides a review of the currently approved mitigation measures that were included in the 2002 ROA. Mitigation Measures M-1 and M-13 have been…
