Brooklyn Against Aircraft Noise
group committed to partner with local governments to reduce aircraft noise
pollution over Park Slope and other Kings County residential communities,
by working to:
- Equitably rotate flight pattern routes
over residential
communities
including a "fanning" approach to reduce the onus on residents living
under a single flight track;
- Limit a single rotation to 6 hours per one rotation;
- Promote the need for environmental impact studies with
consideration to densely
populated residential areas before implementing any flight patterns;
- Give equal consideration to the rights of community residents, as is
presently
given to the needs of airline profitability, congestion/flight delays, passenger
convenience and economic growth;
- Work with local government, Congress and Washington elected
representatives
to address communities' concerns to the FAA and to the NY/NJ Port Authority;
- Organize community volunteer groups and professionals
to assist with research,
phone contacts and donations. We welcome any assistance from Counsels.
