Meeting summary for TRC Meeting #7 of the SEA Part 150 Noise Study, held August 10, 2026 via Zoom, facilitated by Ryan McMullan and Tom Fagerstrom of Port Of Seattle with ESA consultants Chris Nottoli and Scott Tatro. Topics include analysis of Noise Compatibility Program (NCP) measures: increased glideslopes for arrivals (3.0 to 3.5 degrees

Presentation slides from the Maryland Aviation Administration (MAA) and BWI Marshall Airport Roundtable Technical Subcommittee covering aviation noise outcomes and next steps. Topics include expanded DNL contours below 65DNL, separation of East and West Flow contours, NextGen implementation impacts, FAA Instrument Flight Procedure (IFP) Gateway filing, and an upcoming 14 CFR Part 150 Study beginning

Presentation from the Aviation Noise and Emissions Symposium (ANES) featuring Bruce Rineer of BWI Airport Office of Environmental Compliance and Sustainability and Drew Roth of the BWI Roundtable. Session chaired by Bert Ganoung, Cindy Gibbs, and Gregory Maxwell. Covers collaborative procedure design at Baltimore-Washington International Airport (BWI), independent noise modeling results confirming MAA predictions, analysis

Aviation Noise and Emissions Symposium (ANES) Aviation Working Group (AWG) presentation on seven specific community requests to airlines to mitigate departure noise at John Wayne Airport (SNA/Orange County). Covers NADP-1 steep departure procedures (1.2 dB reduction), STAYY4 two-turn procedure approved by FAA, 1200-foot throttle cutback, further power reduction at 1200 feet altitude initiated April 2024

This document outlines the Fly Quiet Program at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) in Washington, D.C., describing the airport's efforts to reduce aircraft noise impacts on surrounding communities. Key measures include FAA-approved flight procedures, a nighttime noise rule with financial penalties for violations between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m., limits on engine run-ups, and requests to airlines to use quieter aircraft. The program also operates a public noise complaint system, flight-tracking tools, and a noise monitoring network to keep residents informed and engaged.

Presentation from the 2026 Aviation Noise and Emissions Symposium (ANES) in Las Vegas, NV covering community expectations and implications for FAA flight procedure changes. Topics include FAA priorities of safety and efficiency over noise, NEPA environmental review levels (CATEX, EA, EIS) and community engagement requirements, extraordinary circumstances triggers, incremental nature of procedural changes, multi-year timelines
