This 1979 Airport Noise Control Procedure Manual, approved by Oregon's Department of Environmental Quality, outlines the procedural steps required for compliance with noise control regulations for airports (OAR 340-35-045). It describes how the Department calculates Noise Impact Boundaries for non-air-carrier airports, including the flight operational data and mapping information needed to make accurate assessments. The manual was issued under the authority of ORS Chapter 467 and was designed to minimize the administrative burden on smaller airport facilities.

This 1971 report, prepared by Wyle Laboratories for the California Department of Aeronautics, provides the technical supporting information behind California's adopted noise regulations for airports. It documents the research and methodology used to establish noise standards governing aircraft operations at California airports. While focused on California, the report represents an early example of state-level regulatory efforts to address airport noise impacts on surrounding communities.

This 1968 report by the American Society of Planning Officials examines the major planning challenges posed by airports, particularly in light of rapid growth in air transportation and the introduction of new jet aircraft. It summarizes methods and tools planners can use to achieve environments compatible with airport operations, viewing airports as transportation facilities, nuisances,
