WORK SCOPE TO PREPARE A PART 150 NOISE COMPATIBILITY STUDY FOR KEY WEST INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT This work scope for the Key West International Airport Part 150 Study is presented in the following phases: Phase I - Establishment of Goals and Objectives Phase II - Analysis of Baseline Conditions Phase III - Evaluat'ion of Alternative Strategies Phase IV - Development of Program Phase V - Coordination Phase VI - Documentation The first four phases identify distinct portions of the study. Phase V identifies the coordination efforts that will occur throughout the study process. One part of the coordination process will be the development of study committees. The organization of these committees is presented in Phase I and their continued involvement discussed throughout the phases. The final section of this work scope addresses the project schedule and cost estimate. 1. PHASE I - ESTABLISHMENT OF GOALS AND OBJECTIVES Task 1 - Establish Study Committees From past Part 150 studies the consultant has learned the importance of establishing advisory committees at the onset of a study. Involving representatives of groups concerned with the operation of the airport and the planning of the local environs aids in the development of a Noise Compatibility Program that is responsive to the specific groups responsible for the implementation of the recommendable strategies. This will not only fulfill the consultation requirements of Part 150, but will also promote support of the program's recommendations. For Key West, a Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and a Community Advisory Committee (CAC) will be organized. The -1- proposed organization of these committees is presented in Exhibit A-1. The TAC will be comprised of individuals aware of the technical aspects of the noise control and land use management strategies. This committee will be divided into two subcommittees: Operations Subcommittee and Land Management Subcommittee. These subcommittees will be tasked with reviewing the existing aircraft noise and land use conditions and with evaluating possible mitigation strategies. Specific tasks of these committees will be discussed in the remaining project tasks outlined in this scope. These committees will meet periodically throughout the study as identified on the project schedule. Task 2 - Establish Goals and Objectives_ Development of specific goals and objectives early in the planning process is essential to guide the study evaluation and recommendations and to. ensure that an implementable plan is produced. The consultant will develop draft goals and objectives which will be forwarded to the client for review and then distributed to the committee members for review. 2. PHASE II - ANALYSIS OF BASELINE CONDITIONS Task 3 - Analyze Existing Aircraft Noise Levels Federal regulations require that the noise analysis be conducted utilizing the Day -Night Sound Level (Ldn) noise metric. The Ldn metric identifies a single value of A -weighted sound for a duration of 24 hours that includes all of the time -varying sound energy for that period, with a 10 dBA penalty for nighttime sounds. Using the FAA's Integrated Noise Model (INM) Version 3.8, average annual day noise contours will be developed for the existing 1987 conditions at the airport. Existing flight schedules for a typical day will be analyzed to determine the -2- Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) Operations Subcommittee Federal Aviation Administration Air Transport Association Local Pilots Association Florida Department of Transportation Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association Monroe County BR&R AvPian Land Use Subcommittee Local Planning Officials Housing Officials Community Advisory Committee (CAC) Representatives of Local Homeowner Groups Representatives of Concerned Environmental Groups Citizen Representatives AvPlan EXHIBIT BR&R PROPOSED ORGANIZATION A-1 —'A— following: number of aircraft departures and arrivals; type of aircraft equipment used; percentage of aircraft which occur during the nighttime hours; and the stage length for destinations of departures. Discussions with airport personnel will be made to determine flight corridors (flight tracks) and percentage use of each track on a typical day. Using this data, the information will be reduced into the format for inputting into the INM. The noise model will be run and resulting contours plotted on base maps, developed by the consultant for 65, 70, and 75 Ldn noise levels. Aircraft noise monitoring will also be performed to observe actual field conditions to verify some of the data used in the INM. Noise monitoring will be performed for a 5-day period during the airport's peak season. The following readings will be taken at outdoor sites located off each runway end and at sideline locations: - 24 hour levels (Ldn) Average sound levels (Leq) Sound exposure levels (SEL) Based on aircraft flight tracks and reported noise complaints, the consultant will develop a preliminary list of noise monitoring locations and will submit it to the Airport Director and the study committees for review. Up to five sites will be selected for each of the types of readings. The same location maybe used for more than one type of reading. While the Leq and SEL readings are being recorded, the noise monitoring technician will record aircraft type and altitude, and will verify the flight corridors being used in the INM. After this analysis of existing aircraft noise levels is complete, the consultant will prepare a draft chapter discussing the analysis. This chapter will be distributed to the client and -4- • the study committees for their review. Task 4 - Analyze Land Use To effectively evaluate noise impacts created by aircraft, a determination of land use trends and development constraints will be made. This determination will require the development of an accurate and current land use, base for the study area, formulated through coordination with Monroe County. A review of zoning regulations and other appropriate planning data will be made to determine the extent of land use control now available, including noise controls, height restrictions, or other related controls. All existing noise sensitive community facilities in the airport area will be identified on the land use base map. Such facilities will include schools, churches, properties on or eligible for the National Register, or other nearby facilities that are considered noise sensitive. Census data and any more recent population estimates will be collected for the area around the airport. This data will be used to determine the population and housing units that are affected by the noise contours. The consultant will prepare a draft chapter analyzing the existing land uses in the vicinity of the airport and describing currently available development controls. This draft will be submitted to the client and study committees for review. Task 5 - Develoo Existinq Noise Exposure Ma The information collected and generated in Tasks 3 and 4 will be combined to produce the 1987 Noise Exposure Map. This map, which will be produced at a scale of no less than 1" _ 80001, will present the 1987 noise contours on a base map that clearly identifies the area around the airport. The base map -5- will be developed from U.S.G.S. topographic maps, aerials available from the Master Plan Update or other available maps of the area. Inside the noise contours, land uses that were determined to be incompatible in Task 4 will be identified. Population and housing unit counts will also be presented to show the impacts of the existing noise contours. Task 6 - Develop Future "Baseline" Noise Exposure Map Noise contours will also be generated for 1992 using the forecast activity levels included in the Master Plan Update and the existing flight tracks, track utilizations, and runway utilizations. These contours will be overlaid onto the base map and incompatible land 'uses (existing and proposed by 1992) will be identified. Using the existing population information and other projections available from the County, population and housing unit counts will be prepared. 3. PHASE III - EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVE STRATEGIES After the existing and future baseline aircraft noise and land use conditions have been identified, the consultant will present noise control and land use management strategies to the client and study committees for evaluation. Task 7 - Evaluate Noise Control Alternatives The initial step in achieving compatibility between an airport and its environs is to investigate ways of reducing and/or redirecting aircraft noise exposure. Using the future baseline noise contours as a starting point, the study committees will be asked to evaluate various noise control strategies. The consultant will present all available noise control strategies for the client and the study committee for review. The strategies that are selected as appropriate for use at Key West will be grouped into several (no more than three) alternatives. -6- Future 65, 70 and 75 Ldn noise contours will be generated for each of these alternatives. Population and housing unit counts will also be prepared for each alternative's noise contours. The evaluation of the alternatives will be distributed to the study committees for final recommendations. Task 8 - Evaluate Land Use Management Alternatives The primary emphasis of this task will be to focus on preventive and remedial land use measures. For example, land use management techniques will address how undeveloped land which is impacted by noise either now, or in the future, can best be used so that it is compatible with aviation activity. Compatibility with the recently completed comprehensive plan will be a major factor in the evaluation of the land use management strategies. Alternative approaches to attaining land use compatibility with existing and future noise levels will be identified and evaluated. As outlined in FAA Advisory Circular 5020-1, "Noise Control and Compatibility Planning for Airports," strategies to be evaluated include zoning, easements, transfer of development rights, constructive use of public capital improvements, joint development of airport property, building code changes, real property noise notices, purchase assurance, soundproofing and land acquisition. The consultant will meet with representatives of the study committees to evaluate the land use management alternatives. Task 9 - Develop Recommended Noise Exposure Map The future recommended set of noise contours that incorporate the proposed noise control strategies will be presented as the recommended noise exposure map. The existing Evil and proposed noise sensitive land uses located within the noise contours will be identified on the map. Population and housing unit counts will also be included. 4. PHASE IV - DEVELOPMENT OF PROGRAM Task 10 - Develop Noise Compatibility Program The formulation of the noise compatibility program will bring together and screen the operational and land use alternatives on the basis of achieving a balanced and effective program. Each element of the proposed program will be reviewed to document its implementation, relative costs, available funding sources, and effectiveness in reducing airport noise impacts. An implementation and review plan will be developed for the program. Implementation of the plan will be accomplished through: Conferences Action Agreements, and Results Monitoring One conference with the operations subcommittees of the technical committee (representing those groups concerned with airport physical facilities, operations, safety and air traffic control) will be held. This group will review recommendations regarding airport operational procedures as they relate to noise and land use planning strategies. Two conferences with the land management subcommittee of the technical committee (representing local, regional, and federal agencies involved with land use planning) will also be held. The high level of technical involvement afforded by this conference will clarify what land use control techniques will and will not work within the study area. A role will be identified for the public and private -8- entities to carry out the final plan. This will assist the airport in managing the implementation plan as well as in showing the various agencies how their roles interrelate. The interrelationship of the various roles will enforce the need for joint responsibility to plan implementation. Written agreements dealing with zoning, subdivision regulations, mandatory fair disclosure statements, and noise abatement procedures should be developed as part of the overall implementation strategy. A management program to monitor the results of the plan should be devised. This program should be designed to monitor the progression or the regression of the plan. This program could include noise monitoring, an ongoing noise abatement committee, a noise complaint response process, review and revision to noise contours, and effective public reactions on noise control. Finally, as part of the implementation process, a matrix will be developed to summarize the recommended strategy. The matrix will display not only recommended land use and noise strategies but also appropriate actions, timeframes, responsibilities, and costs for appropriate parties responsible for each individual implementation strategy. 5. PHASE V - COORDINATION Task 11 - Coordinate with Client, FAA and Study Committee As mentioned throughout this work scope, the consultant will meet with the client and the study committees periodically during the study. All chapters to be presented to the study committees will be forwarded to the client for review first. In addition, all handout materials to be developed as part of the Public Participation Program will be sent to the client for review. -9- Task 12 - Conduct Public Participation Program To reach and involve the public, the Consultant proposes a series of public information workshops and a project newsletter. The following sections describe the proposed individual elements of the public participation program and its relationship to the Community Advisory Committee. Subtask 12.1 Conduct Public Information Workshops From past projects, the consultant has learned that public information workshops are an excellent format for involving the public. Rather than a formal presentation in which a single speaker will present project findings to a group of individuals, the consultant will utilize an informal workshop set-up, as appropriate. The workshops will be organized as a series of explanatory booths. The first booth will be the Registration Station where sign -in sheets and comment forms will be available. One or more presentation boards will be at each of the other booths and each booth will be staffed with one or two individuals well - versed in the booth subject matter. This type of arrangement allows for more individualized attention and is less intimidating to the public. The workshops are designed to be more educational and . elicit more specific public comments than formal presentations. The consultant proposes the staffing of the information booths be primarily consultant staff and airport staff. However, if possible, attempts will be made to involve members of the Technical Advisory Committee as presenters. It is also helpful to have representatives of airport user groups or the local communities involved in the presentations. It would be particularly useful from a community relations standpoint to have a community official or representative present at each -10- of the workshops. As a means of providing an overview of the workshop's presentations and organizing supplementary information, the consultant will provided workshop booklets. A primary function of the Community Advisory Committee will be coordination of the workshops and review of presentation materials. Members of the Committee will be asked to make suggestions on location for the workshops. Presentation outlines will be reviewed by the Committee as will be the workshop booklets. Four public information workshops will be organized to coincide with study milestones, as identified on the project schedule. To stimulate the public's awareness of these workshops, the consultant proposes an advertisement campaign including display advertisements in local newspapers approximately two weeks prior to the workshop followed by a newspaper article the day before the workshop. Additionally, to increase public awareness, the consultant suggests that the local news media be invited to attend a briefing approximately 30 minutes before the publicized start of the workshop. Subtask 12.2 Prepare Project Newsletter As an additional means of distributing information about the study, the consultant proposes the use of a project newsletter. The newsletter will be prepared in a self -mailer format to avoid the additional handling and expense involved with using separate mailing envelopes. The project newsletter will be published three times as follows: Issue 1 - Published soon after the initiation of the study, this issue will provide an overview of -11- the study process and outline the major events of the study. Issue 2 - This issue will discuss the existing noise conditions, including specifics about the noise monitoring program, and will summarize the events of the first public information workshop. Issue 3 - This issue will discuss the evaluation of the operational noise control and land use management strategies and will present the 1992 Recommended Noise Exposure Map. The consultant proposes using a member of the CAC to coordinate the newsletter mailings. A member of the committee will be identified as a contact person to maintain the mailing list. Initially, the newsletters will be mailed to individuals attending the first public information workshop. They will also be distributed to local civic associations, churches, and other interested organizations. 6. PHASE VI - DOCUMENTATION Task 13 - Prepare Documentation During the study committee meetings, the consultant will provide study notebooks. Draft chapters discussing the goals and objectives, existing aircraft noise conditions, land use, noise exposure maps, noise control alternatives, land use management alternatives, recommended noise exposure map, and program development and implementation will be provided for inclusion in the study notebooks. The formal program will be documented in accordance with Part 150 requirements and FAA Advisory Circular 150/5020-1, "Noise Control and Compatibility Planning For Airports." As according to FAA requirements, documentation will be separated for noise exposure maps and the program, and will include the following reports which will be produced as separate documents: OW-C Noise Exposure Maps for 1987 and 1992 and Documentation Noise Compatibility Program Completed Overall Study Report (20 Copies) Executive Summary of the Planning Process (200 Copies) Task 14 - Respond to FAA Review Comments Part 150 regulations are very specific regarding FAA review of noise exposure maps and programs. The consultant will submit the noise maps and programs to the FAA prior to a formal submittal to elicit comments regarding content and format. All FAA comments will be responded to in a letter response, with changes made in the text, as appropriate. 6. SCHEDULE AND COST ESTIMATE As presented in Exhibit A-2, the Part 150 study will be completed in approximately 12 months and the documentation will then be forwarded to the FAA for review and approval. Past Part 150 studies at airports that experience significant seasonal peak levels of aircraft activity have shown that the public has a strong desire for the aircraft noise monitoring to be performed during the peak activity. For this reason, the consultant proposes that the study be initiated in winter 1986/1987 and be completed and ready for submission to the FAA in 12 months from the notice to proceed. Table A-1 presents the cost estimate for this study. -13- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12.
