SUBJECT: JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT NOISE ABATEMENT QUARTERLY REPORT
SUMMARY:
This agenda report transmits the John Wayne Airport (JWA) Noise Abatement Quarterly
Report for the fourth quarter of 2017. The average noise level measured at Tustin's
monitoring station (NMS 1 ON), located at Columbus Tustin Middle School on Beneta Way
(Figure 1), remained fairly consistent with prior quarters during this fourth quarter
reporting period. Anomalies in the noise reporting for this quarter were related to the
reverse -flow of air traffic due to weather conditions. Average noise levels during the
continued to remain well below the City, County, and State criteria of 65 dB Community
Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) for residential uses.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council receive and file this report.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact.

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 fourth quarter of 2017, which includes the months
of October through December. 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 fourth quarter of 2017, the average CNEL at Tustin's monitoring station on
Beneta Way was 55.7 dB. This is .5 dB higher than the average of the previous quarter
(Q-3: July — September 2017). The average noise level for this quarter is very similar to
the average from the previous four quarters which is 55.5 dB. Figure 2 provides a
visualization of Tustin's CNEL levels for each month during the fourth quarter of 2017.

Noise Comalaints
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 decreased by 26.6% during the fourth quarter of 2017
in comparison to the third quarter of 2017, but increased by 30.8% in comparison to the
same quarter last year.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, there were fourteen (14) Tustin area complaint calls,
which is eight (8) more complaints than the previous quarter. JWA staff has indicated that
the increase in complaints is due to the implementation of reverse flow during this
reporting period. Reverse flow refers to the reversal of the normal arrival/departure
direction, usually due to weather conditions, such as strong Sana Ana winds.
Tustin staff has outreached further 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 fourteen (14) complaints is as follows: ten (10) were regarding excess
noise due to reverse flow, in which complainants were provided with an explanation of
reverse flow via phone or e-mail; two (2) were regarding general noise, which were both
discussed via phone; one (1) was regarding the flight path; and, one (1) was regarding a
low-flying aircraft. Each of the singular incidents were discussed over the phone with JWA
staff and the complainant.
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).

INTRODUCTION
This is the 180th 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-1S: 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 ½ 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 (January 1, 2017 - December 31,
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".

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 (October 1, 2017 - December 31, 2017)
The Airport's Access and Noise Office receives and investigates noise complaints from local citizens and all
other sources. During the October 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017, the Office received 493 complaints
from local citizens. This is a 26.6% decrease from the 672 complaints received last quarter. It is a 30.8%
increase from the 377 complaints received during the same quarter last year. Figure 4 shows the distribution
of the quarterly complaints from local communities.

QUARTERLY NOISE MEETING
Date: December 13, 2017
Time: 2:00 PM
Place: Airport Commission Room
ITEMS DISCUSSED
Nikolas Gaskins read the JWA Access and Noise Office (ANO) Fact Sheet which describes
issues related to Airport noise. Mr. Gaskins presented the Southern California Metroplex
Project webpage located on the Airport’s website. Mr. Gaskins also presented an analysis of
Metroplex departure procedures and their respective flight tracks. Bonnie Frisch presented an
overview of the Airport’s flight track viewer, VOLANS.
Budge Collins of Corona Del Mar discussed his concerns regarding why commercial aircraft
can’t just fly straight out during normal operations, similar to how they depart straight out in
reverse flow operations. Mr. Gaskins explained that the current departure flight path over the
Newport Back Bay is designed to minimize noise exposure to residents. Mr. Collins also
stated he used to live on Bay Island and use to get flights over that area, but doesn’t notice it
anymore. Mr. Gaskins explained that it is likely due to Metroplex.
Jim Mosher of Newport Beach pointed out that the “curtains” feature in VOLANS should be
enabled to show the ground track of a flight. Dr. Mosher stated that when the “curtains”
feature is enabled, it is quite accurate. Dr. Mosher also inquired about adding live noise
readings for each noise monitor to VOLANS. Mr. Gaskins stated the ANO is looking into the
possibility of offering that option. Dr. Mosher also asked how far back the ANO had flight
track data. Mr. Gaskins stated that flight track data can be retrieved as far back as the year
2000.
Max Gouron of Tustin stated he has lived at his current residence for 18 years, and that in
2017 the noise became a problem. Mr. Gaskins stated that this likely due to reverse flow
operations and that the ANO would do an analysis of flight tracks for him to determine a
possible cause of the problem.
