JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT NOISE ABATEMENT QUARTERLY REPORTS
SUMMARY: This report transmits two John -Wayne Airport Noise Abatement Quarterly
Reports for .the first and second quarters of 199& The average noise level measured at
monitoring station M-7, located at Columbus Tustin Middle School slightly increased during
the first and second quarters. Average .noise levels during both quarters remained below the
City, County and State criteria of 65 dB Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) for
residential uses.
RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file report.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City retains the acoustics consulting firm of J.J. Van Houten and Associates, Inc. to review
JWA Noise Abatement Quarterly Reports. The costs for such reviews are annually included in the
Community Development Department budget.
DISCUSSION
Following the conclusion of each calendar quarter, John Wayne Airport prepares a Noise
Abatement Program Quarterly Report and transmits a copy of the report to the City of Tustin.
Twice a year the consultant prepares a report, which summarizes two quarterly reports.
Attachment 1 contains the quarterly reports for the first and second quarters of 1998. Attachment 2
contains the summary report prepared by the noise consultant. A brief overview of the information
contained within these attachments follows.

Measured Noise Levels
The average annual CNEL at Remote Monitoring Station M7 is 56.1 for the one year period
ending, June 30, 1998. This is only 0.2 dB higher than the average CNEL of 55.9 dB for the year
ending, December 31, 1997.
During the first quarter of 1998, the average CNEL at Remote Monitoring Station (RMS)
#7, located at Columbus Tustin Middle School, was 55.9 dB. For comparison, the CNEL
was 0.9 dB higher (56.8) during the first quarter of 1997. f
During the second quarter of 1998, the average CNEL was 56.1. For comparison, the CNEL
was 0.2 dB lower (55.9) during the second quarter of 1997.
All measured noise levels are below the City, County and State criteria of 65 dB CNEL for
residential areas.
Noise .Complaints
During the first quarter of 1998, there were 37 Tustin/Orange complaints compared with 39
for the same period during 1997.
During the second quarter of 1998, there were 64 Tustin/Orange complaints compared with
55 for the same period during 1997.
The number of complaints increased during the second quarter and was slightly lower
during the first quarter compared to the same periods in 1997. However, the total number of
complaints increased significantly during the first and second quarters of 1998 compared to
the th/rd and fourth quarters of 1997. The increase in complaints corresponds with the
increase in total quarterly jet operations from the last two quarters of 1997 to the first two
quarter of 1998.
Type and Mix of Aircraft Related to Noise Levels
During the first quarter of 1998, the percentage of quieter Class E aircraft decreased and the
percentage of noisier Class A aircraft increased compared with the same period in 1997.
However, the average CNEL for the first quarter of 1998 was lower than the same period
during 1997.
City Council Report
JWA Noise Abatement Quarterly Reports
January 5, 1999
Page 3
During the second quarter of 1998, the percentage of quieter Class E aircraft decreased and
the percentage of noisier Class A aircraft slightly increased compared with the same period
in 1997. The average CNEL for the second quarter was slightly higher than the second
quarter of 1997.
The percentage of quieter Class E aircraf~ at John Wayne Airport has remained fairly
consistent since the 4th quarter of 1996 (about 30 to 36%). However, variations in aircraft
mix do not correlate with changes in the average quarterly CNEL, which means that an
increase in the use of quieter Class E aircraft does not necessarily result in a decrease in the
average quarterly CNEL.
Since noise issues are of considerable importance to the City of Tustin, the Community
Development Department will continue to monitor operations at John Wayne Airport unless
otherwise directed by the City Council.

INTROD~C~ON
This is the 101st Quarterly Report submitted by the County of Orange in accor~c~ with the
requirements of the California Airport Noise Standards (California Administrative Code
Title 21, Chapter 2.5, SubChapter 6: Division of Aeronautics Noise Standards). Effective
January 1, 1986, the criteria for defining "Noise Impact Area" was changed from 70 dB to
65 dB Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL). Under this criteria, John Wayne Airport
currently has a "Noise Impact Area."
NOISE IMPACT SUMMARY
Caltrans' Aeronautics Program has established guidelines in the California State Noise
Standard to control residential area noise levels produced by aircraft operations using the
State's airports. Under those guidelines, residential noise sensitive areas exposed to an
average Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) of more than 65 dB define the 'Noise
Annual Impact Area.' John Wayne Airport uses ten permanent remote monitoring stations
(RMS) located in Newport Beach, Santa Ana, Tusfin and Irvine to measure noise levels, at the
following locations:
MONITOR STATIONS
RMS-I: Golf Course, 3100 Irvin¢ Ave., Newport Beach RMS-8:
RMS-2:20152 S.W. Birch St., Santa Aha RMS-9:
RMS-3: 2139 Anniversary Lane, Newport Beach RMS-21:
RMS-6: 1131 Back Bay Drive, Newport Beach RMS-22:
RMS-7: 17952 Beneta Way, Tustin RMS-24:
1300 S. Grand Avenue, Santa Aha
17372 Eastman Street, Irvine
223 Nata, Newport Beach
2338 Tustin Ave., Newport Beach
1918 Santiago, Newport Beach
The map in Figure 1 shows the general location of each permanent remote monitor station.
Figure 2 shows the Airport's "Noise Impact Area" for the previous year (April 1, 1997 -
March 31, 1998). The Figure 2 information was developed by Mestre-Greve Associates, Inc., in
consultation with John Wayne Airport. CNF2. values measured for the period and current
digitized land use information were utilized to calculate the land area acreages, number of
residences and estimated number of people within the 'Noise Impact Area'.

COMMUNITY NOISE EQUIVALENT LEVELS
The monthly, quarterly and twelve month Communi ,ty Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) average values for
each monitor station are shown in Table 2, while daily CNEL values are shown in Tables 3 through 5.
Insufficient data is indicated by "0.0" entries in each table.
Average Single Event Noise Exposure Level (SENEL) values for Air Carrier and Business Jet aircraft are
shown in Tables 6 through 8.
For the ~'elve month period ending March 31, 1998, 118 dwelling units in Santa Ama Heights were in the
"Noise Impacted Area" (within the 65 dB CNEL contour); there was no change in the number of dwelling
units in the "Noise Impacted Area" from the previous twelve month period ending December 31, 1997.
The State has approved several remedies of'aircraft noise levels for noise sensitive property, in the "Noise
Impact Area": homes can be acoustically insulated, purchased by the Count3', or rezoned for "other
non-noise sensitive uses." As part of the Count?"s Santa Aha Heights Land Use Compatibilit?' Program,
appro.,dmately 77 general agriculture (A-l) properties with residential land uses on Orchard, Acacia and
Birch Streets were rezoned for Business Park Use in October, 1986. Each propert3' was individually sold
and subsequently converted to compatible land use. Between 1986 and 1993, 124 residences were
purchased or otherwise made compatible throu~ the Coun .ty's Purchase Assurance Program, Acoustical
Insulation Program or Housing Relocation Program. In September 1993, the FAA approved a grant to
fund a voluntary, acoustical insulation program titled 'Santa Ama Heights Acoustical Insulation Program"
('SAId ADP"). During the first quarter of 1998, ten additional residences have been made compatible
through the County's SAH ADP. A total of 214 residences in. Santa Aha Heights have been purchased or
otherwise made compatible through the Coun~"s Purchase Assurance Program, Housing Relocation
Program, Acoustical Insulation Program or SAH AlP.
TELEPHONE COMPLAINT CALLS (January - March 1998)
The Airport's Access and Noise Office receives and investigates noise calls and complaints from local
citizens and all other sources. During the first quarter of 1998, the Office received a total of 332
complaints from local citizens, a 1% decrease from the 337 complaints received during the previous
quarter and an increase of 48% from the 224 complaints received during the same quarter of 1997.
Figure 4 shows the distribution of the quarterly telephone calls and complaints from local communities.

Tire 21, Chapter 2.5, SubChapter 6: Division of Aeronautics Noise Standards). Effective
January 1, 1986, the criteria for defining "Noise Impact Area" was changed from 70 dB to
65 dB Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL). Under this criteria, John Wayne Airport
currently has a "Noise Impact Area."
NOISE IMPACT SUMMARY
Calms' Aeronautics Program has established guidelines in the California State Noise
Standard to control residential area noise levels produced by aircraft operations using the
State's airports. Under those guidelines, residential noise sensitive areas exposed to an
average Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) of more than 65 dB define the "Noise
Annual Impact Area." John Wayne Airport uses ten permanent remote, monitoring stations
(RMS) located in Newport Beach, Santa Ana, Tustin and L'vine to measure noise levels, at the
following locations:
MONITOR STATIONS
RMS- 1: Golf Course: 3100 Irvine Ave., Newport Beach RMS-8:
RMS-2:20152 S.W. Birch St., Santa Ana RMS-9:
RMS-3: 2139 Anniversary Lane, Newport Beach RMS-21:
RMS-6: 1131 Back Bay Drive, Newport Beach RMS-22:
RMS-7: 17952 Beneta Way, Tustin RMS-24:
1300 S. Grand Avenue, Santa Ana
17372 Eastman Street, Irvine
223 Nata, Newport Beach
2338 Tustin Ave., Newport Beach
1918 Santiago, Newport Beach
The map in Figure 1 shows the general location of each permanent remote monitor station.
Figure 2 shows the Airport's "Noise Impact Area" for the previous year (July 1, 1997 - June 30,
1998). The Figure 2 information was developed by Mestre-Greve Associates, Inc., in
consultation with John Wayne Airport. CNEL values measured for the period and current
digitized land use information were utilized to calculate the land area acreages, number of
residences and estimated number of people within the "Noise Impact Area".

COMMUNITY NOISE EQUIVALENT LEVELS
The monthly, quarterly and twelve month Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) average values for
each monitor station are shown in Table 2, while daily CNEL values are shown in Tables 3 through 5.
Insufficient data is indicated by "0.0" entries in each table.
Average Single Event Noise Exposure Level (SENEL) values for Air Carrier and Business Jet aircraft are
showx~ in Tables 6 through 8.
For the twelve month period ending June 30, 1998, 120 dwelling units in Santa Aha Heights were in the
"Noise Impacted Area" (within the 65 dB CNEL contour); there ,,vas an increase of 2 in the number of
dwelling units in the '~oise Impacted Area" from the previous t~velve month period ending March 31,
1998.
The State has approved several remedies of aircraft noise levels for noise sensitive property in the ~Xloise
Impact Area": homes can be acoustically insulated, purchased by the County, or rezoned for "other
non-noise sensitive uses." As part of the County's Santa Ama Heights Land Use Compatibility Program,
approximately 77 general agriculture (A-l) properties vdth residential land uses on Orchard, Acacia and
Birch Streets were rezoned for Business Park Use in October, 1986. Each property was individually sold
and subsequently converted to compatible land use. Benveen 1986 and 1993, 124 residences were
purchased or other,vise made compatible through the County's Purchase Assurance Program, Acoustical
Insulation Program or Housing Relocation Program. In September 1993, the FAA approved a grant to
fund a voluntary acoustical insulation program titled "Santa Ana Heights Acoustical Insulation Program"
("SAH ALP"). During the second quarter of 1998, no additional residences have been made compatible
through the County's SAH AIP. A total of 214 residences in Santa Aha Heights have been purchased or
otherwise made compatible through the County's Purchase Assurance Program, Housing Relocation
Program, Acoustical Insulation Program or SAH AIP.
TELEPHONE COMPLAINT CALLS (April - June 1998)
The Airport's Access and Noise Office receives and investigates noise calls and complaints from local
citizens and all other sources. During the second quarter of 1998, the Office received a total of 566
complaints fi'om local citizens, a 70% increase fi'om the 332 complaints received during the previous
quarter and a decrease of 43% from the 1,002 complaints received during the same quarter of 1997.
Figure 4 shows the distribution of the auarterlv telephone calls and complaints from local communities.

John Wayne Airport
Dear Ms. Binsack,
The referenced reports have been reviewed and evaluated as requested in your
letter of September 29, 1998. The following provides our findings with regard to
airport operations and their impact on the City of Tustin:
.
,
Referring to Figures 1 and 2, the average annual CNEL at station M7 is
56.1 dB for the one year period ending, June 30, 1998. This estimate is
based upon data for the full year. This is only 0.2 dB higher than the
average annual CNEL of 55.9 dB for the year ending, December 31,
1997. (NOTE: The noise contours for John Wayne Airport are based on
average annum CNEL values measured at each remote monitoring
station.)
Referring to Figure 2, the number of noise complaints originating from
the Tustin/Orange area increased significantly in the first and second
quarters of 1998. The average CNEL was about constant through June of
CITY OF TUSTIN
Project File 2779-98
.
1998. This increase in complaints was dramatic when compared to the third and fourth
quarters of 1997. There were 58 complaints in the last two quarters of 1997, while there
were 101 complaints in the first two quarters of 1998. The increase in complaints does
correspond with the increase in total quarterly jet operations during the second quarter
of 1998 as compared to the last quarter of 1997.
As indicated in Item 1, above, the annual average CNEL measured at station M7 is
56.1 dB based on information through the first and second quarters of 1998. This is 1.8
dB less than the 58 dB that was estimated for the station in the referenced aircraft noise
impact study for the Phase 2 Access Plan (Reference 1).
AIRCRAFT NOISE CONTOURS
In 1988, an exterior aircraft noise monitoring effort was conducted throughout the City of
Tustin by the John Wayne Airport Noise Abatement Office and byJ. J. Van Houten &
Associates, Inc. (Reference 1). Aircraft-generated single event noise exposure levels (SENEL's)
were measured at twelve locations in Tustin over a five month period.
As a result of this effort, noise contours were developed for John Wayne Airport as they impact
the City of Tustin. Although the shape of the contours does not change (since flight tracks are
fixed), the value of the noise contours does change with different levels of operations at the
airport and different mixes of aircraft.
Figure 3 provides the approximate location of the John Wayne Airport noise contours for 1990
based on measurements obtained at monitoring station M7 throughout the year. Referring to
the figure, the community noise equivalent level (CNEL) ranged from 53 to 59 dB in the City of
Tustin, with a CNEL of about 55 dB at station MT.
Based on data through the second quarter of 1998, the annual average CNEL at station M7 is
56.1 dB. The existing and future Phase 2 contours (based on data through June of 1998) are
provided in Figure 4. Referring to the figure, it is estimated that in the first half of 1998 the
aircraft-generated CNEL ranges from 54 to 60 dB. This is well below the City, County, and
State criteria of 65 dB for residential areas.
USE OF QUIETER AIRCRAFT AT JWA
The correlation between the increasing use of quieter aircraft at JWA and the change in CNEL
within the City of Tustin has been examined as part of this program review. The Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) classifies aircraft into three categories based on noise levels. In
order of decreasing noise levels, there are Stage I, Stage II, and Stage III aircraft. John Wayne
Airport has only permitted Stage III aircraft since the early 1970's.
The airport has its own classification scheme for passenger aircraft. In order of decreasing noise
level, these are Class A, Class AA, and Class E aircraft. Table 1 provides the estimated number
of each class of aircraft that used the airport between the first quarter of 1996 and through the
second quarter of 1998. Also provided is the measured average quarterly CNEL at monitoring
station MT. Table 2 provides the same information, but the values have been normalized to
J. J. VAN HOUTEN & ASSOCIATES, INC.
CITY OF TUSTIN
Project File 2779-98
17,000 aircraft operations (takeoffs and landings) per quarter. In this way, a correlation can be
established between the quarterly CNEL and the mix of aircraft types.
Referring to Table 2 and Figure 5, the percentage of quieter Class E aircraft using John Wayne
Airport has remained fairly consistent since the 4th quarter of 1996 (about :30% to 36%). The
variations in aircraft mix do not correlate with changes in the average quarterly CNEL. That is,
an increase in the use of quieter Class E aircraft does not mean that the average quarterly CNEL
will decrease. For example, the percentage of Class E aircraft operations was 30.2% for the
third quarter of 1997. However the average CNEL for the quarter was about the same as
through the year (55.6 dB for the 3rd quarter vs. 56.1 for 1997).
If you have any questions, please contact the undersigned at 949/4:76-0932.
Very truly yours,
