WELCOME! Policy Advisory Committee (PAC) Meeting July 23, 2003
FIRST PUBLIC INFORMATIONAL MEETING • Held July 9th at Randolph Clubhouse • Approximately 130 People Attended • Explained Process • Provided Opportunity for Input on Issues • Answered Questions • Well Covered by Media
TASK 2 BRIEFING PAPER UPDATE • Comments Received from PAC Members • Reviewing Comments and Updating Paper Based on Comments Received • Will Continue to Update Through Remainder of Study • Briefing Paper is Interim Working Document • Contents Will Be Incorporated Into Final Report
COMPATIBILITY CRITERIA • Avoid concentrations of people exposed to noise and safety hazards • Noise Criteria: • Limit exposure of people and noise-sensitive activities to high noise levels • Safety Criteria: • Limit concentrations of people and safety- sensitive activities in areas of highest probable accident impact
NOISE CRITERIA • Typical Background Sound Levels • Suburban Residential Neighborhood – 35 to 45 db • Office (Interior) – 40 to 50 db • Traffic – 70 to 85 db • Normal Conversation – 60 db
NOISE CRITERIA • Noise Sensitive Activities • Residences and places where people normally sleep, such as hospitals and hotels • Institutional land uses such as schools, libraries, and churches where it is important to avoid interference with such activities as speech, meditation, and concentration on reading material • Uses where quiet is important, such as medical offices, concert halls, cemeteries, monuments, and museums • Outdoor activities where conversation or quiet is important
NOISE CRITERIA • Alternative 1 • Prohibit noise-sensitive uses in zones above 65 ldn • Require sound attenuation for effects of external noise on other indoor activities (indoor level of 45 ldn) • Notes to Table: • 1. With appropriate sound attenuation so that indoor sound levels attributable to exterior sources shall not exceed an Ldn of 45 decibels (dBA) in any habitable area
NOISE CRITERIA • Alternative 2 • Prohibit noise- sensitive uses in zones above 60 db • Require sound attenuation for effects of external noise on other indoor activities (indoor level of 45 db) • Notes to Table: • 1. With appropriate sound attenuation so that indoor sound levels attributable to exterior sources shall not exceed an Ldn of 45 decibels (dBA) in any habitable area; normal construction provides a reduction of 20 to 25 decibels
NOISE CRITERIA • Option 1 • Use 2003 AICUZ Noise Contours
NOISE CRITERIA • Option 2 • Use Notional (Hypothetical) Noise Contours
SAFETY CRITERIA • Risk • The potential for realization of unwanted, adverse consequences to human life, health, property, or the environment; estimation of risk is usually based on the expected value of the conditional probability of the event occurring times the consequence of the event given that it has occurred.

SAFETY CRITERIA • In Areas of Most Likely Accident Impact • Avoid Uses with Concentrations of People • Residences and similar uses where people reside, such as hospitals and hotels • Employment locations with high density (e.g. offices) • Places where people may gather in large numbers (e.g. shopping centers, auditoriums, recreation areas) • Avoid Uses with Special Safety Considerations • Uses involving hazardous materials or explosives • Critical public health and safety uses (e.g. hospitals, fire stations, police communication facilities)
SAFETY CRITERIA • USAF World-Wide Accident Data • All aircraft types • 1985 – 2000 • Class A accidents (greater than $1M damage, fatality, total loss of aircraft) • Data available only up to 40,000 ft from end of runway)
SAFETY CRITERIA • USAF World-Wide Accident Data • All aircraft types • 1985 – 2000 • Class A accidents (greater than $1M damage, fatality, total loss of aircraft) • Data available only up to 40,000 ft from end of runway
SAFETY CRITERIA • Alternative 1 • Allow low-intensity employment uses in APZs and Paddle • Graduated density with longitudinal distance (5 to 15 People per acre)
SAFETY CRITERIA • Alternative 2 • Allow low-intensity employment uses in APZs and “Center” Paddle • Graduated density with longitudinal distance from runway end (4 to 15 people per acre) • Graduated density (up to 40 people per acre) and additional uses with horizontal distance from centerline
SAFETY CRITERIA • Split Paddle • “Center” Paddle is 5000 ft. wide (2,500 ft on each side of centerline) • Side Paddles are balance of Paddle
COMPATIBILITY CRITERIA Discussion
NEXT STEPS • Task 3 and 4 Briefing Paper • Next PAC Meeting – August 20th • Second Public Information Meeting • September 23rd • 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. • Location to be Announced • Other?
