FAA noise abatement policy statements

Journal Article · · Harvard Env. Law Review; (United States)
OSTI ID:6354612

A policy statement released by FAA on November 18, 1976, outlines a comprehensive aircraft noise abatement program that includes deadlines for compliance with source emission standards for commercial aircraft and recommendations for action by local governments and airport proprietors. For currently operating aircraft, the new FAA regulations set up a schedule of time limits within which subsonic jets that fail to meet existing noise standards must either be retired or be retrofitted with noise abatement equipment. Regarding future design of aircraft, FAA intends to promulgate an appropriate set of more stringent noise standards applicable to subsonic jets by March 1977. 26 references.
