To begin discussion and prioritization of a list of potential actions for StART to explore related to preventing, reducing, and/or mitigating aviation noise. To consider constructive next steps. Meeting Summary: The Working Group attendees included StART members, as well as resource representatives from the airlines, the FAA, and Port of Seattle. To assist the Working Group, the Port hired a technical consultant, Vince Mestre, who specializes in airport noise and has experience working with stakeholder groups. Vince introduced himself and shared information about his expertise. The meeting’s main focus was to review, refine and/or expand upon the initial list of near-term strategies identified by StART at the June 27 StART meeting. Long-term potential strategies can also be identified and considered as part of a future work plan. The Working Group suggested that it is important to clarify and identify who has authority to influence/make decisions for each specific potential action. Port staff and the consultant provided context for each of the initial strategies including identifying relevant history, opportunities, challenges, and examples from other airports (domestic and international) including best practices. Potential strategies discussed included: • Runway Use Agreement / Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) • Nighttime Voluntary Curfew • Glide Slope & Optimized Profile Descent Analysis • Airfield Noise / Reverse Thrust Assessment…
