TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
DATE: JANUARY 9, 1990
SUBJECT: PREAPPLICATION TO THE FAA FOR NOISE MONITORING EQUIPMENT
AT BUCHANAN FIELD AIRPORT (Project No 3-06-0050-08)
Specific Request(s) or Recommendation(s) & Background &
Justification
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director to submit a preapplication to
the Federal Aviation Administration for noise monitoring equipment
for Buchanan Field Airport.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The estimated cost of the project is $320,700. This project is
eligible for 80% Federal funding amounting to $256,560. The
remaining $64,140 will be paid from the Airport Enterprise Fund.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
The FAA will not fund this project until final approval of the FAR
Part 150 Noise Study. The noise contours have already been
approved by the FAA. The Noise Compatibility Program is currently
being processed by the FAA. One of the recommendations of the FAR
Part 150 Noise Study is that permanent noise monitoring equipment
be installed.
Noise equipment is generally a low priority with FAA funding.
Since we are an air carrier airport, however, we have Entitlement
money available to us on an annual basis . Entitlement funds may
be used for any eligible project that the sponsor elects . The
$256,560 Federal share will be from FAA Entitlement funds .
