THE BOA OF SUPERVISORS OF CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA Adopted this Order o ebruary 16 , 1988 by the following vote : . AYES : NOES : ABSENT: ABSTAIN : SUBJECT : Six Months ' Noise Report The following reports are included with this memo : Buchanan Field Airport Yearly Complaint Record;. PSA Operations over Pleasant , Hi l l and Concord- 1987 ; Comparison of PSA Complaints to Tota . 19.87 Complaints ; Summary of Total and Local Aircraft Operations at Buchanan Airport ; Caller Complaint Analysis for 1987 . Buchanan Field Yearly Airport Yearly Complaint Record This report summarizes the complaints for the full calendar years of 1983 through 1987 . The complaints for 1987 averaged slightly over 65 complaints per month . Those associated with Buchanan Field only averaged slightly over 56 complaints per month . The noise study is nearing completion and th.e consultant has already started submitting recommendations . The airport is in the process of developing a job description and . anticipates hiring a person to specifically deal with the noise complaint problems in the near future . PSA Operations over Pleasant Hill and Concord - 1987 This report breaks the operations over Pleasant Hill and Concord down in numerical and percentage values. The significant numbers for your consideration would be the year to. date landings and takeoffs percentage shown in the December section . This indicates that 6 . 02_ % of all PSA operations occurred over Pleasant Hill and 10 . 56%- of all operations occurred over Concord . This takes into consideration very heavy months ' of May where 2. 3 . 18% of operations occurred over Pleasant Hill and . June where 24 . 21 % of operations occurred over Concord . Both of these were because of runway construction . For 1988 there is no runway work anticipated which would cause any disruption of runway usage . Our current projec tions are that the percentage of PSA operations over the respective communities will be down in 1988 . Comparison of PSA Complaints to Total 1987 Complaints This report specifically compares PSA related complaints to total complaints of 1987 and provides a percentage of that total for your information . The 1986 total complaints is shown strictly for comparison purposes . It can be seen that the PSA complaints remain at a relatively constant numerical level and at approximately 25% of the total complaints . As mentioned previously , the months of May and June were. up because of runway work . Most of the complaints lodged relative to PSA are because` of the visual impact of the airplane not specifically hec.ause of. noise . Summary of Total and Local Aircraft Operations at Buchanan Field irport Questions frequently arise as to the volume of traffic at Buchanan Field Airport . This summary provides a comparison of . total operations beginning in 1975 through 1987 . This also shows local operations . The local operations are shown to give you an indication of the " touch and go " traffic . Also in this report i.s a percentage comparison to the most recent previous year , as .well as a percentage comparison to the highest year . , As can be seen , the highest year was the year 1977 . Our current total traffic is at. a level of 64 . 72% of our busiest year . We have also included a graph of this traffic for visual comparison purposes . Caller Com laint Anal ysis for 1987 This shows that there were 783 calls received from 345 different callers . The ten families that called the most often generated 32 . 05% of our total complaints . The top 50 families that called generated 57 . 34 % of our complaints . 252 of the callers were one time callers only . Of t-hese , 99 were not associated with Buchanan Airport . FAR Part 150 Noise Study and Airport Noise Ordinance The FAR Part 150 Noise Study and the Master Plan are scheduled to be presented to the Board of Supervisors in March . It is anticipated that the draft of the noise ordinance will also be presented at that time . Once theBoard of Supervisors has accepted the Master Plan , the consultants will complete a full EIR . on the Master Plan .
