The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is taking public comment while it reviews its key aviation noise policies. These policies directly impact local airport noise.

Submit your comments and feedback online on the FAA's Noise Policy Review webpage. Comments must be submitted to the FAA by Sept. 29, 2023. You can also mail your comments to Docket Operations, M–30; U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, Room W12–140, West Building Ground Floor, Washington, DC 20590–0001, or fax comments to 202-493-2251

The FAA also hosted four meetings that can be viewed on the FAA’s YouTube channel.

The FAA is considering how changes to its civil aviation noise policy may better inform agency decision making. The FAA will incorporate these public comments along with research on the effects of aviation noise exposure when considering these changes. 

For more detailed information about this process, please view the Civil Aviation Noise Policy Review webpage.

Finally, you can find more information about local airport noise by visiting the Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport Noise Roundtable's webpage.
