Here is a short summary of the bill:

This bill, known as the Aircraft Noise Reduction Act, proposes several measures aimed at addressing aircraft noise around general aviation airports. Here is a summary of its key provisions:

Authority of General Aviation Airports

The bill grants owners or operators of general aviation airports the power to impose specific restrictions on flights in order to manage aircraft noise. This authority includes:

  • Consultation with the FAA: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) must consult with airport owners/operators upon request, to facilitate reasonable adjustments to air traffic patterns of noncommercial charter flights. This is intended to help manage noise levels while ensuring compliance with existing laws.
  • Community Engagement: Airport operators are required to consider feedback from local communities when implementing any changes related to noise control. This is aimed at ensuring that the concerns of those living near airports are taken into account.
  • Protection from Funding Withdrawal: The bill stipulates that federal funds cannot be withheld or withdrawn from a general aviation airport due to actions taken under this noise management authority.
  • Emergency Provisions: The FAA has the authority to reject or temporarily restrict noise accommodations in cases of emergency.
  • Definition of General Aviation Airport: The term "general aviation airport" is specified to mean a noncertified airport as defined by federal regulations.

Regulatory Updates

The bill also directs the Secretary of Transportation to issue regulations necessary to update existing federal regulations (specifically parts 150 and 161 of title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations). This update would enable owners and operators of general aviation airports to implement effective noise abatement measures deemed necessary and appropriate by them.

Impact on Existing Regulations

The proposed changes are aimed at enhancing the ability of general aviation airports to address and mitigate aircraft noise, balancing operational needs with community concerns.
