How does the SAT determine who is eligible for inclusion in the current or future Residential Acoustical Treatment Program?
The FAA determines eligibility for Part 150 programs by using an approved DNL (Day-Night Average Sound Level) Noise Exposure Contour Map (NEM). This contour map represents the projection of an airport’s yearly noise average using aircraft fleet mix, hourly operations, and arrival and departure flight tracking data.
