CORRELATION TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN:
Staff's analysis and report of the quarterly JWA Noise Abatement Report falls under Goal
D of the Strategic Plan pertaining to strong community and regional relationships. The
City of Tustin strives to work collaboratively with agencies both within and outside Tustin
on issues of mutual interest and concern, and in this instance, on matters of airport traffic
and noise.
DISCUSSION:
Following the conclusion of each calendar quarter, JWA staff prepares a Noise
Abatement Program Quarterly Report and posts a copy of the report on their website.
Attached is the quarterly report for the first quarter of 2017, which includes the months of
January through March. An overview of the information contained within the JWA Noise
Report includes measured noise levels, and an analysis of noise complaints.
Measured Noise Levels
Aircraft noise is most noticeable during airplane takeoffs and landings, primarily due to
engine noise. Although engines produce a significant amount of aircraft noise, many other
factors may influence the perception of noise including: proximity; weather — in bad
weather, engine noise is reflected off of the atmosphere making jets appear louder than
on clear days; routes; non-scheduled operations which could include military or private
aircraft; emergencies; and, weight — a heavier load may affect an aircraft's rate of ascent.
During the first quarter of 2017, the average CNEL at Tustin's monitoring station on
Beneta Way was 55.5 dB. This is the same as the average of the previous quarter (Q-4:
October — December 2016). The average noise level for this quarter is very similar to the
average from the previous four quarters which is 56.4 dB. Figure 2 provides a visualization
of Tustin's CNEL levels for each month during the first quarter of 2017.

Noise Complaints
The Airport's Access and Noise Office receives and investigates noise calls and
complaints from local citizens and other sources. Throughout all of the Orange County
monitoring area, noise complaints increased during the first quarter of 2017 in comparison
to the fourth quarter of 2016. It should be noted that several of the complaints were made
from one (1) household in Irvine.
During the first quarter of 2017, there was one (1) Tustin area complaint call, which is
eight (8) less complaints than the previous quarter. Tustin staff has outreached to JWA
staff to gather further details on the nature of the complaint, and to understand how JWA
staff responds to each complainant. The complaint received was regarding general
aircraft noise, and JWA staff discussed the concern over the phone with no further follow-
up requested.
To provide an understanding of the trend in Tustin area complaints throughout the years,
a chart displaying the number of noise complaints for the past five (5) years is displayed
below (Figure 3). Generally, there is a noticeable increase in noise complaints during the
second and third quarters of the year, which further supports the theory that an increase
in complaints tends to occur during the warmer months of spring and summer. Overall,
the number of complaints has not reached more than twelve (12) complaints in a single
quarter during this five-year reporting period.

Since noise issues are of considerable importance to the City of Tustin, the Community
Development Department will continue to monitor operations at JWA unless otherwise
directed by the City Council. The public are additionally welcome to participate in JWA's
Quarterly meetings held by the Access and Noise Office. The next quarterly meeting will
be held on September 13, 2017, at 2:00 p.m. in the Eddie Martin Administration Building

John Wayne Airport, Orange County
INTRODUCTION
This is the 177th Quarterly Report submitted by the County of Orange in accordance 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 Impact Area." John Wayne Airport uses ten permanent
remote noise monitoring stations (NMS) located in Newport Beach, Santa Ana, Tustin and Irvine to
measure noise levels, at the following locations:
MONITOR STATIONS
NMS -1 S: Golf Course, 3100 Irvine Ave., Newport Beach NMS -6S: 1912 Santiago, Newport Beach
NMS -2S: 20162 S.W. Birch St., Newport Beach NMS -7S: 1131 Back Bay Drive, Newport Beach
NMS -3S: 2139 Anniversary Lane, Newport Beach NMS -8N: 17372 Eastman Street, Irvine
NMS -4S: 2338 Tustin Ave., Newport Beach NMS -9N: 1300 S. Grand Avenue, Santa Ana
NMS -5S: 324'/2 Vista Madera, Newport Beach NMS -ION: 17952 Beneta Way, Tustin
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, 2016 - March 31, 2017).
The Figure 2 information was developed by Landrum & Brown., 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 "#N/A" entries in each table. Also, "*#N/A" entries in each table indicate
there were no aircraft -related noise events.
Average Single Event Noise Exposure Level (SENEL) values for Air Carrier and General Aviation Jet
aircraft are shown in Tables 6 through 8 -GA.
ACOUSTICAL INSULATION PROGRAM
Four hundred eighteen residences in the Santa Ana Heights area have been sound attenuated and an avigation
easement reserved through the County's Acoustical Insulation Program, which closed in December 2009.
The County has also acquired 46 residences as part of the Purchase Assurance Program, many of which were
acoustically insulated, an avigation easement reserved and then resold. Among these County acquired
homes, those located within areas designated for Business Park uses were razed, avigation easements were
reserved, and the land resold for compatible Business Park uses. A total of 464 residences in the Santa Ana
Heights area have been purchased or otherwise made compatible through the County's Purchase Assurance
and Acoustical Insulation Programs. Seventy-seven dwelling units in Santa Ana Heights remain in the
"Noise Impacted Area" (within 65 dB CNEL contour).
COMPLAINT TOTALS (January 1, 2017 - March 31, 2017)
The Airport's Access and Noise Office receives and investigates noise complaints from local citizens and all
other sources. During January 1, 2017 through March 31, 2017, the Office received 461 complaints from
local citizens. This is a 22.9% increase from the 375 complaints received last quarter. It is a 32.5% increase
from the 348 complaints received during the same quarter last year. Figure 3 shows the distribution of the
quarterly complaints from local communities.

QUARTERLY NOISE MEETING
Date: March 8, 2017
Time: 2:00 PM
Place: Eddie Martin Building
ITEMS DISCUSSED
David Cook of the Eastbluff area of Newport Beach and member of the Newport Beach
Aviation Committee discussed the carriers' use of the Noise Abatement Departure
Procedures (NADPs). Nikolas Gaskins explained that some carriers do use NADPs, but that
the Airport does not and cannot require carriers to use specific operational procedures. Mr.
Cook asked if there had been any discussions regarding the FAA making the NADPI
mandatory. Mr. Gaskins stated he had not heard anything about such a requirement.
Mr. Cook asked about the timing of the implementation of the FAA Metroplex departure
procedures, noting that the CHANNEL and MUSEL procedures were still in use. Mr.
Gaskins explained the CHANNEL and MUSEL will be phased out and that the new
procedures are scheduled to begin on April 27, 2017.
Mr. Cook asked about the noise levels generated by the new Airbus A320 -NEO aircraft. Mr.
Gaskins explained that the noise levels generated by the A320 -NEO have been lower than
typical Airbus A320 noise levels.
Mr. Cook inquired as to whether carriers will have to reduce flights since the total passengers
are nearing the passenger cap. Mr. Gaskins explained that the Airport makes adjustments
based on projected annual passengers during its annual allocation process prior to the
beginning of each Plan Year in order to ensure the cap is not exceeded.
Newport Beach resident Jim Mosher asked about the FAA's Metroplex changes which were
implemented on November 10, 2016. Mr. Gaskins explained that on that date arrival
procedures using RNP technology were initiated, noting that few aircraft are RNP -capable at
the current time. Mr. Mosher said the FAA had stated that the aircraft are not necessarily on
the "railroad track", and that variations up to plus or minus one mile are acceptable to the
FAA. Mr. Gaskins explained that the Airport is tracking the amount of dispersion on a daily
basis.
Mr. Mosher mentioned the noise levels for the Airbus A320 -NEO and his understanding that
this aircraft type does not register at all the noise monitoring stations due to low noise levels;
he asked why the quietest readings are excluded. Mr. Gaskins explained that the Airport
calculates noise readings according to the standard set forth by the California Noise
Standards Administrative Code Title 21 and that this method does exclude noise below a
certain level.
