OSU Airport Part 150 Noise and Land Use Compatibility Study Draft Report
(October 2009)
The document below includes chapter summarizing Phase 1 of the study - the Noise Exposure Map development phase - and Phase 2 of the study - the Noise Compatibility Program development phase. Chapters one through eight have already been submitted and accepted by the Federal Aviation Administration. Chapters nine through 13 are new, and summarize the Noise Compatibility process, review, analysis, findings and recommendations. We will continue to accept comments on these draft chapters through Friday, December 11, 2009.
For your convenience, the entire draft report is provided below, followed by the sections that were produced for each study phase..
Printed copies of the draft report are available at OSU Airport and the Dublin, Old Worthington and Hard Road libraries.
