FAA Survey: Agency sets March 15 deadline for feedback on noise

The deadline for submitting your comments on the survey is now April 14. . . The new survey by the FAA has shown significantly higher levels of annoyance among people living near airports than previous data indicated. The Neighborhood Assessment Survey showed that between 60% and 71% of people were highly annoyed by noise exposure of 65 DB, compared to only 12.3% of people, according to 1992 data. The survey found similar dramatic increases in the percentages of people highly annoyed by airport noise at lower levels as well, down to 50 DB. As the Burlington Free Press reported in 2019, with a background noise of 65 decibels, two people standing three feet apart would be unable to hear each other without shouting.
