City of Wood Dale issued the following announcement on Jan 20.
Thanks in part to work done by the O’Hare Noise Compatibility Commission, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is seeking public comment on its existing noise research portfolio and the recently released Neighborhood Environmental Survey.
It is important for Wood Dale citizens affected by O’Hare noise to review the results of the survey and provide feedback to give the FAA proper understanding of the impact airport noise has on local residents.
The FAA Neighborhood Environmental Survey is a multi-year research effort to review and improve understanding of community response to aviation noise, its impact on the public, efforts to mitigate noise exposure and additional research. The survey included responses from over 10,000 people living near 20 airports across the country, and the results show an increased level of reported annoyance due to aircraft noise in contrast to earlier surveys.
The City of Wood Dale encourages you to continue providing feedback to assist the FAA with plans to mitigate airport noise. We also encourage you to continue providing feedback and filing noise complaints by calling (800) 914-8537.
