Community noise issues remain the major impediment to airport capacity enhancements in the United States. This chapter focuses attention on policy issues of the greatest salience in contemporary airport/aircraft noise controversies. Various stakeholders have differing opinions about these matters, which policymakers have the duty to balance. Additional issues (including sustainability, climate change/flight shaming, and air quality) also affect the ability of airports to expand, and also play roles as non-acoustic variables affecting noise-induced annoyance. |
