Noise Oversight Committee March 18, 2015 Item 5 2014 Annual Noise Contour Report The Noise Mitigation Consent Decree requires the MAC to prepare a annual noise contour report using the FAA s Integrated Noise Model (INM). On February 27, 2015 MAC staff completed the eighth Annual Noise Contour Report consistent with the requirements laid out in the Consent Decree. The Consent Decree was amended in October 2013 to establish a threeconsecutive year mitigation eligibility requirement, compared to the 2007 DNL forecast contours.

2014 Annual Noise Contour Report (continued) The MAC retained the services of HNTB for the preparation of the INM inputs and to run a quality check on the noise contours. 2014 is the second year of actual noise mapping to establish mitigation eligibility, per the Consent Decree Amendment. The only residential properties that meet the mitigation eligibility criteria are located in the City of Minneapolis. 285 single-family homes meet the 1 st year of eligibility. 137 single-family homes and 89 multi-family units meet the 2 nd year of eligibility (all homes that met the 1 st year in 2013 moved into the 2 nd year in 2014).

2014 Annual Noise Contour Report (continued) The 2014 total operations were 29.3% below the 2007 forecast mitigated total operations. The 2014 total operations are down 4.6% from 2013. Modified ( hushkitted ) Stage 3 average daily operations in 2014 were down 99.9% from the 2007 forecast mitigated number. Nighttime operations in 2014 decreased by 28 average daily operations from the 2007 forecast mitigated number. Table 3.1 MINNEAPOLIS-ST. PAUL INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT 2007 Mitigated Forecast vs. 2014 Annual Total Operations Summary Operations Category 2014 * 2007 Forecasted Passenger Air Carrier (a) 375,072 523,472 Cargo 12,199 21,158 Charter 190 5,766 GA 21,862 28,846 Military 2,437 3,124 TOTAL 411,760 582,366 Notes: (a) Includes both air carrier and regional carrier operations (b) Includes both GA and non-scheduled air taxi operations * Based on actual 2014 MACNOMS data adjusted to match FAA ATADS data (to account for unavailable MACNOMS operations data).

2014 Annual Noise Contour Report (continued) The 2014 actual noise contour is smaller than the 2007 forecast mitigated contour by 6,949.9 acres (44.2% reduction) in the 60 DNL contour and by 3,755.5 acres (51.9% reduction) in the 65 DNL contour. The predominant contraction in the contours from the 2007 forecast mitigated to the 2014 actual noise contour is driven largely by fleet mix changes, including a significant reduction in Modified ( hushkitted ) Stage 3 aircraft operations, and a significant reduction of total annual operations. The small area where the 2014 actual noise contour extends beyond the 2007 forecast mitigated noise contour can largely be attributed to nighttime runway use variances between what was forecasted and what was occurring in 2014, particularly an increase in nighttime arrival operations on Runway 12R.

2014 Annual Noise Contour Report (continued) 1 st Year of Mitigation Eligibility 120 single-family homes moved from the 60-62 DNL contour into the 2014 63 DNL contour 39 single-family homes previously eligible for homeowner reimbursement moved into the 2014 60-62 DNL contour 126 single-family homes previously outside the mitigation area moved into the 2014 60-62 DNL contour 2 nd Year of Mitigation Eligibility 119 single-family homes previously eligible for homeowner reimbursement moved into the 2014 60 DNL contour 18 single-family homes previously outside the mitigation area moved into the 2014 60 DNL contour 89 multi-family units previously outside the mitigation area moved into the 2014 60 DNL contour If these blocks remain within a higher noise impact area for 3 consecutive years, they will be eligible for additional mitigation in accordance with the First Amendment to the Consent Decree.

Noise Oversight Committee March 18, 2015 Item 6 Nighttime Operations Assessment The 2015 NOC Work Plan includes an assessment of nighttime operations at MSP. Resident concerns and comments are one of the primary catalysts for the continuing evaluation of nighttime operations at MSP. Federal policy virtually prohibits mandatory nighttime restrictions at public-use airports, such as MSP.

Analysis focuses on the following: Nighttime Operations Assessment (continued) Average daily nighttime operations at MSP from 2005 to 2014 Annual average daily INM nighttime operations from 2005 to 2014 compared to the 2007 forecast annual average daily nighttime operations MSP all nighttime and carrier jet nighttime operations runway use summary for 2014 and 2013 MSP INM nighttime (10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.) operations runway use summary for 2014 and 2013 A breakdown of the top 15 nighttime carrier jet operators for 2014 and 2013 A breakdown of the fleet mix for the top 15 nighttime airlines for 2014 and 2013 Average daily MSP nighttime operations by hour for 2014 and 2013 A comparison and breakdown of scheduled nighttime operations and the fleet mix of the scheduled operations for 2014 and 2013 A comparison of the scheduled nighttime operations vs. actual nighttime operations for 2014 and 2013

Nighttime Operations Assessment (continued) In 2014, all nighttime operations increased 10.7% from 2013 (carrier jet nighttime ops increased 14.7% over the same time period) The top 15 nighttime jet operators represent 95.7% of the total nighttime carrier jet operations in 2014 (Top three carriers: DAL, SCX, NKS). In 2013 the top 15 represented 94.3%. (Top three carriers: DAL, SCX, AWE). Of the top 15 nighttime jet operators, 100% of the operations were flown with Stage 3 Manufactured aircraft in 2014. The most prevalent time period for nighttime operations in 2014 was 23:00 to 00:00 (15.1 average daily night ops 29.8%) and 05:00 to 06:00 (14.0 average daily night ops 25.2%)
