ADVISORY COMMITTEE
Date: OCTOBER 23, 2009
Subject: RECOMMENDATIONS DRAWN FROM THE RECENT NOISE
SYMPOSIUM IN DELRAY BEACH
1. Recommend the Dania Beach CityCommission put the presentations from the
p
American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE) Ninth Annual Noise
Mitigation Symposium (ANMS) on their website so everyone can review them. A
"thumbnail" drive has been provided.
2. Recommend the Dania Beach City Commission ask legal counsel to look at the
information provided for Session #1: FAA Hot Topics including the Terminal Area
Forecast Summary Report, 2002 through 2020 prepared in April 2003; Senate Bill
1451; the policy and guidance (FAA-AC/150/5020-1 Noise Control and
Compatibility Planning for Airports, August, 1983 and New FAA Coordination
Policy for Non-Standard File (Sept. 17, 2008), "07-28-09AEE & ARP
Coordination"), and all other referenced guidance in the presentation on FAA Hot
Topics to see how they will impact decision making here in Broward County.
3. Recommend the Dania Beach City Commission ask Broward County to
construct a sound insulated model home in an area where DNL is 65 or above so
everyone can visit it to see how it works (instead of doing the pilot mitigation
program)
5. Recommend the Dania Beach City Commission ask Broward County for a time
line (and cost) for completion of all noise mitigation required as indicated by the
noise exposure maps in the Record of Decision
6. Recommend the Dania Beach City Commission ask legal counsel to look at the
issue of whether the noise mitigation being considered is driven by the Part 150
process or the Record of Decision. Legal Counsel should review all material
provided for Session #3: Mitigation at Non-Part 150 Airports to the extent that it is
relevant. Additionally, legal counsel should look at how Boston Logan was able to
institute operational changes and still receive federal monies for noise mitigation.
7. Recommend the Dania Beach City Commission ask Broward County if they
intend to change the land use of noise affected areas, and if so what impact that
will have on the types of noise mitigation programs available to homeowners.
8. Recommend the Dania Beach City Commission ask legal couriscl/environmental
consultant to look at the issues raised in this Session #5: Green Tee';nologies to
determine how the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Renovation, Repair
and Paint Rule (40 CFR Part 745) that goes into effect on April 22, 2010 will affect
proposed noise mitigation measures (e.g., cost, time line, etc.).
6. Recommend the Dania Beach City Commission ask Broward County if EPA
Renovation, Repair and Paint Rule (40 CFR Part 745) has been considered in the
costs and time lines associated with proposed noise mitigation measures.
Additionally, ask Broward County to add the U.S. Department of Energy, Retrofit
with Energy Star Program, to the proposed noise mitigation program.
7. Recommend the Dania Beach City Commission communicate with both legal
counsel and Broward County to find out if the issue of lender/mortgage company
approval of adding avigation easements to homeowner's property has been
contemplated in the timing and cost of the proposed mitigatioP nro ,ran.
8. Recommend that the Dania Beach City Commission get actively involved in the
opportunity presented in Session #8: Noise Programs Outside the 6D DNL. The
Dania Beach City Commission can facilitate their participation by assigning the
task of becoming involved with the Airport Cooperative Research Program to
either your legal counsel or environmental consultant.
