Sea-Tac International Airport: Commercial Aircraft Noise Footprint Comparison
This Sea-Tac International Airport brochure, prepared by the Port of Seattle in Summer 1998, compares the noise footprints of Stage II jets, Stage III jets, and general aviation/commuter aircraft to help residents understand the noise impacts of different aircraft types. It explains that Stage III aircraft are significantly quieter than Stage II aircraft, and that replacing older Stage II planes with newer Stage III models would meaningfully reduce noise levels in surrounding communities. The document also defines key noise measurement terminology, including DNL (Day-Night Average Sound Level), and notes that nighttime flights carry a 10-decibel penalty in noise accounting. -

“Impacted area” definition: An act relating to aircraft noise abatement
This 1979 Washington State legislative act amends the definition of an 'impacted area' for aircraft noise abatement purposes near airports. It expands the eligible zone from three to six miles beyond the paved end of any runway, and from fifteen hundred to thirty-three hundred feet from the runway centerline, within which port districts may undertake noise mitigation programs. Areas meeting these geographic criteria are officially designated as 'impacted areas' subject to noise investigation and abatement efforts. -
