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 third quarter of 2017, which includes the months
of July through September. 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 and may be louder than commercial aircraft; emergencies; and, weight — a heavier
load may affect an aircraft's rate of ascent.
During the third quarter of 2017, the average CNEL at Tustin's monitoring station on
Beneta Way was 55.2 dB. This is .6 dB lower than the average of the previous quarter
(Q-2: April — June 2017). The average noise level for this quarter is very similar to the
average from the previous four quarters which is 55.9 dB. Figure 2 provides a visualization
of Tustin's CNEL levels for each month during the third 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 by 67.7% during the third quarter of 2017 in
comparison to the second quarter of 2017, but decreased by 35% in comparison to the
same quarter last year.
During the third quarter of 2017, there were six (6) Tustin area complaint calls, which is
one (1) less complaint than the previous quarter. Tustin staff has outreached to JWA staff
to gather further details on the nature of the complaints, and to understand how JWA staff
responds to each complainant. The breakdown of the six (6) complaints is as follows: two
(2) were regarding curfew, in which messages were left for JWA staff with no follow-up
requested; one (1) was regarding arrival noise; one (1) was regarding the flight path; one
(1) was regarding a low-flying aircraft; and, one (1) was regarding general aircraft noise.
Each of the singular incidents were discussed over the phone with JWA staff and the
complainant, with no additional follow-up required.
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). Overall, the number of complaints has not reached more than twelve
(12) complaints in a single quarter during this five-year reporting period.

INTRODUCTION
This is the 179' 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 -10N: 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 (October 1, 2016 - September 30,
2017). The Figure 2 information was developed by Landrum and 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.
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 (July 1, 2017 - September 30, 2017)
The Airport's Access and Noise Office receives and investigates noise complaints from local citizens and all
other sources. During the July 1, 2017 through September 30, 2017, the Office received 672 complaints
from local citizens. This is a 67.6% increase from the 401 complaints received last quarter. It is a 35.1%

QUARTERLY NOISE MEETING
Date: September 13, 2017
Time: 2:00 PM
Place: Airport Commission Room
ITEMS DISCUSSED
Suzanne Wyrick of Corona Del Mar explained that she has been impacted dramatically by the
increase in aircraft noise which began as of July 2017. Ms. Wyrick stated she believes the
increase in aircraft noise is a result of the FAA Metroplex project, in which environmental
impacts were not taken into consideration. Nikolas Gaskins presented flight tracks to Ms. Wyrick
showing a comparison of current flight tracks vs. 2016 flight tracks. Mr. Gaskins explained that
the flight track comparisons represent no appreciable change with respect to Ms. Wyrick's
residential address.
Carol Peters of Bayshores discussed her concerns over significant changes in aircraft noise and
that our studies do not reflect the noise the community is experiencing. Ms. Peters also stated her
concerns over why aircraft no longer utilize the Noise Abatement Departure Profiles (NADP)
that have been previously used in the past. Mr. Gaskins explained that the carriers do utilize
NADPs, but that the Airport does not have the authority to mandate the use of a NADP or any
other specific operational procedure related to flight. David Cook of Eastbluff asked Ms. Peters if
she had noticed the changes either 2 years ago or 6 months ago. Ms. Peters confirmed 6 months
ago. Mr. Cook stated that he believes carriers 2 years ago figured out that they do not need to
utilize a NADP to comply with the Airport's noise limits. Mr. Gaskins explained that the Airport
cannot be more restrictive then how it currently operates, due to the Airport Noise and Capacity
Act (ANCA) and that carriers are beginning to employ quieter aircraft, such as the Airbus
A320neo and the Boeing 737 MAX.
Patrick Gormley of Bayshores discussed his concerns regarding the possibility of relocating the
noise monitors in order to capture noise readings from the new flight paths. Mr. Gormley stated
that the communities are being impacted by not being able to hear or have a discussion without
being interrupted by aircraft noise from newly implemented flight paths. Mr. Gormley wanted an
explanation on how the ANO would keep pace with all the flight path changes. Mr. Gaskins
explained that current flight tracks are overflying historical flight paths and present no
appreciable change. As far as noise monitor relocation, Mr. Gaskins explained that the Airport is
unable to add or relocate regulatory noise monitors without putting the Settlement Agreement in
jeopardy with ANCA.
Jim Mosher of Newport Beach expressed that the communities are concerned with the noise and
not necessarily the actual flight tracks. Mr. Mosher suggested we share the NMS 7S historical
noise data showing the "extremes" over the past year. Mr. Mosher also referenced that the NADP
table presented in the August 2017 Newport Beach Aviation Committee's Monthly Report is
somewhat misleading, as it implied all carriers are utilizing a NADP, rather than only some
carriers. Mr. Mosher requested that data in the General Aviation Noise Ordnance (GANO)
Report be separated by GA nighttime noise levels versus GA daytime noise levels. Mr. Mosher
also mentioned the Airport issues noise violations to approximately 10 GA operators a month and
asked if the violations were issued by tail number, or by company, since a charter company could
possibly generate many noise violations. Mr. Gaskins explained that the GANO allows violations
to be issued to the aircraft owner, operator and aircraft registration number, but is normally
issued to the aircraft registration number.
