Members of the committee requested that quarterly meetings be held regardless of who chairs the meeting.

• Cheryl Miner was welcomed as the newly appointed representative for Peaks Island. RNAV Procedures Presentation

• Jon Harris / FAA o Provided update to the committee on the FAA’s progress of the RNAV procedures. Harris

reported the FAA is on target with the roll out date of July 2012. o Boston Center has worked closely with both Manchester and Portland airspace managers to

ensure that there are no conflicts nor any push back from the FAA controller workforce. o FAA Flight Inspectors are the only possible delay in this process. The flight inspection check

rides are tentatively scheduled for March / April and Harris will inform the committee of the tentative dates once they’re determined.

o A future opportunity for a Radius-to-Fix (RF) Leg would allow an RNAV arrival to Rwy 29 that could follow the same path of the current Harbor Visual Approach.

An RF Leg approach could be available as early as June 2013. Committee Membership Update

• Cape Elizabeth Town Council has been notified regarding the vacant representative seat on the NAC. • Cheryl Miner has filled the seat for Peaks Island Representative.

Airline Schedule Update

• Information passed to the committee regarding proposed schedules for the next few months as part of a new data service subscription the Jetport has purchased. Information can be made available to the committee regarding scheduled service and possible schedule changes on a monthly basis.

 

Portland International Jetport – Noise Advisory Committee Meeting – 2/16/2012                                        

• Discussion regarding the continuation of operations between 11:30 pm and 6:15 am led to a request for information reporting the percent of noncompliant flights. Tom Ainsworth requested that the minutes reflect an approximate “30% noncompliance” rate of flights.

The issue of schedule proposals and their review continues to be a topic of debate within the committee. In previous meetings, the Chair has restated the Committee’s position on this issue and its inability to prevent airlines from scheduling flights during the period of 11:30 pm to 6:15 am in accordance with the 1990 FAA Part 150 Study Record of Approval. This Record of Approval is attached to these minutes and this item is noted in Section II, B.7.

PWM Noise Stats Year in Review 2011– Jen Dunfee

• Reviewed PWM Noise Statistics (see attached presentation) • There was a request for corridor / tolerance for flight track of Harbor Visual Approach

Per that request, the track threshold is outlined below in red:

Crosswind Runway Construction Update – Paul Bradbury • Construction of Runway 36 Safety Area will begin as weather improves. • The current schedule for the Runway 18/36 closure is May 1 – October 1, 2012. • There was a request from the committee to keep the community informed of the construction project

schedule via website updates, press releases, etc.

Community Outreach Sessions • Paul Bradbury reiterated that part of the Jetport’s Noise Compatibility Program includes continued

attendance at neighborhood meetings. The Jetport looks to the Noise Advisory Committee to inform the Jetport when those meetings are held.

• Tom Ainsworth spoke on behalf of Red Bank Village located south of the airport in that there was an interest in hosting a neighborhood meeting to discuss Jetport construction and noise. Alan Livingston volunteered to coordinate with Ainsworth to schedule a meeting.

Announcements

• Phase II of the terminal expansion is complete and all airlines are scheduled to be operating in the new terminal by mid March.

• Due to summer construction of Runway 18/36, there will be no Air Expo this year.

Attached for your action is the Noise Compatibility Program(NCP) for Portland International J'etport (PWM) under FAR Part150. The New England Region, in conjunction with FAAheadquarters, has evaluated the program and recommends actionas set forth below.

On March 27, 1990, the FAA determined that the Noise ExposureNaps (HEMs) for PWM are in compliance with the requirements ofsection l03(a) of the Aviation safety and Noise Abatement Aotof 1979 (ASNA) and Title 14, CFR Part 150. At the same time,the fAA made notification in the 'Federal Register of the formallOO-day review period for PWM's proposed program under theprovisions of section 104 (a) of A$,.N~,:,anq.r;~""J(~.Et 150. ThelBO-day fO):.inal review period ends'September 23>, i9~O': If theprogram is not acted on by the FAA by that date, it will beautomatically approved by law, with the exception of flightprocedures.

The 1?HH prograludescribes the current and future noncompatibleland u~es within the 65 DNL. The NCP proposes measures toremedy existing identified incompatibilities and to preventfuture noncompatible land uses. chapter 2 of the Hepsummarizes the airport operator1s recommendations andquanti.fies the expected benefits derived from fullimplementation of the program. TIle table on page 2-11indicates that the number of people impacted would be reducedby about 5,172 with full implementation.

The Assistant Administrator for policy, Planning andInternational Aviation and the Chief Counsel have concurredwith the reoommendations of the New England Region. If youagree with the recollUIlended FAA determinations, you should signthe lJapprove" line on the attached signature page. I recommendyour approval.

Subject: ACTION: Recommendation far Approval of the Date JUL S7 1990Portland International Jetport, Portland, MaineNoise Compatibility Program

From Manager, Airports Division, ANE-600Reply toAttn. of

To: Assistant Administrator for Airports, ARP-l

On March 27, 1990, a notice was published in the Federal Registerannouncing our determination of compliance for the noise exposuremaps for Portland International Jetport, Portland, Maine, underSection 103(a) of the Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act of1979. Coincident with that determination, we began the formal180-day review period for Portland's proposed noise compatibilityprogram, under the provisions of Section 104(a) of the Act. Theprogram must be approved or disapproved by FAA within 180 days orit shall be considered approved as provided for in Section 104(b)of the Act. The last date for such approval or disapproval isSeptember 23, 1990.

We have reviewed and evaluated the proposed noise compatibilityprogram and have concluded that it is consistent with the intentof the Act and that it meets the standards of Federal AviationRegulations Part 150.

The documentation submitted by the City of Portland was reviewedby the Airports, Air Traffic, Airway Facilities, and FlightStandards Divisions, and by the Assistant Chief Counsel. Thepublic comment period closed June 25, 1990. No substantivecomments have been received.

Each proposed action in Portland International's noisecompatibility program was also reviewed and evaluated on thebasis of effectiveness and potential conflict with federalpolicies and prerogatives. These include safe and efficient useof the nation's airspace and undue burden on interstate commerce.

Our approval or disapproval recommendations on each proposedaction are described in the attached Record of Approval. Eachproposed action is described in detail in Volume 2: NoiseC~~patibility Program.

1. N:lise Barrier at the Approach Eni of Rur.way 18. (sections 2.1.1,3.1.1, and 5.1.)

A lS-foot or :::lo-foot :barrier would be constructed, depen:'iing onfuture design considerations. Ma:ximu:n Lear Jet departure noiselevels are in the range of 80 to 90 dBA at three resider.ces. Non­tu:d:xljet engine nmups are also a prcblem.

ApprOyed. A 12 to 16 dBA noise level re:Luction can be expected.

2. Hush Heuse on the East Erx1 of the Airport Property. (sections2.1.2, 3.1.2, and 5.1.)

Airline maintenar.v:e I.'U1'l.UPS are ~ted in the area of the BarHa%ixlr hangar.

!pproved. A 13 to 14 dBA noise level re:1uction can be expected to5-6 single a:r.d multi-family residential units to the east of theairport. Maintenance runups would be consolidated at a centrallocation.

3. Preferential Use of Runway 29. (sections 2.1.3, 3.2, and 5.1.)

RuDla;y 29 would be the preferential I'Un"laY for early rcorningdepartures ani Ru.nw~ 11 would ~ the preferential ru:riflay for latenight arrivals.

B. Monitoring and Review Elements

7. Monitor Proposals for New Scheduled Operations Between11:30 P.M. 6:15 A.M. (Sections 2.1.8 and 3.7.3)

Any airline proposing to schedule operations between the hoursof 11:30 P.M. and 6:15 A.M., is required to present theproposal to a continuing Noise Abatement committee. Uponreview, the committee submits a recommendation to the Citycouncil to accept or reject the proposal.

The City has stated by Letter dated september 19, 1990, fromthe Airport Manager that, prior to implementing any mandatoryuse restriction, it recognizes its responsibility to thoroughlyevaluate impact with regard to: 1) reasonableness consistentwith reducing non-compatible land uses around the airport, 2)undue burden on interstate commerce or foreign commerce, and 3)unjust discrimination with regard to airport users. The cityhas also agreed to submit the evaluation and any proposed use

restriction as a rev1s1on to this Noise Compatibility Program(NCP) for approval in accordance with Part 150 of the FederalAviation Regulations. In addition, the City states that itdoes not intend to take action implementing a mandatory userestriction until FAA review is complete.

Approved in part. This measure, already implemented, isapproved insofar as it establishes an administrative procedurefor review of proposed airline service by the Noise Abatementcommittee. The continuation of an airline service monitoringprocess should promote a good relationship between the NoiseAbatement Committee and airlines.

The measure is disapproved insofar as it may appear to grantthe NAC authority, on behalf of the City, to delay accessthrough extended negotiations or to force airlines to agree tomeet unspecified noise standards. The measure is disapprovedinsofar as it may appear to grant the City blanket authority toapprove or disapprove nighttime operations based on unspecifiedstandards. FAA approval of monitoring and review by the NACdoes not extend to actions on the part of the City council toaccept or deny proposed service based on recommendations of theNAC. Until such time as the City adopts a reasonable,nondiscriminatory use restriction or obtains FAA approval of aproposed use restriction in a revision to the NCP, the Cityshould permit unrestricted access in accordance with theassurances set forth in its federal grant agreements.

A decision by the FAA to approve a proposed use restriction isnot legally binding on the airport sponsor. While the City hasagreed to submit proposals for approval under Part 150, FAAapproval or disapproval under Part 150 does not regulate thecity with respect to its airport access decisions. The FAAwill evaluate the proposal submitted under Part 150 relative tosafe and efficient use of the navigable airspace.
