This will be part of our consultation. Heathrow is quieter now than it was in the 1970s even though we have double the number of air traffic movements

Classification: Public NOISE AND VIBRATION SECTION 17 OF THE PEIR • Aircraft noise emissions (QC) are getting quieter as technology improves. This trend is assumed to continue whilst the annual ATMs increase with 3R. • Year of highest aircraft noise emissions is anticipated to be 2035 – as assessed in PEIR.
Classification: Public NOISE AND VIBRATION SECTION 17 OF THE PEIR • Aircraft noise assessment based on indicative airspace test cases, as ACP and DCO are separate processes. As a result: a) inner area - not materially affected by airspace design so results are more representative of final outcomes. b) outer area - will be affected by airspace design so results are only indicative.

Classification: Public NOISE ENVELOPE • As part of our DCO application we will be putting forward our proposals for a Noise Envelope. This is a requirement of the Airports National Policy Statement (ANPS 5.60): “The applicant should put forward plans for a noise envelope. Such an envelope should be tailored to local priorities and include clear noise performance targets. As such, the design of the envelope should be defined in consultation with local communities and relevant stakeholders, and take account of any independent guidance such as from the Independent Commission on Civil Aviation Noise. The benefits of future technological improvements should be shared between the applicant and its local communities, hence helping to achieve a balance between growth and noise reduction. Suitable review periods should be set in consultation with the parties mentioned above to ensure the noise envelope’s framework remains relevant.” • A Noise Envelope Design Group was set up in March 2019 to provide a forum for technical engagement on our development of proposed •
Classification: Public NOISE ENVELOPE • Information regarding the Noise Envelope has been published in the following AEC documents; Consultation Document, Environmentally Managed Growth, Future Runway Operations and Chapter 17 of the Preliminary Environmental Information Report. Definition: Heathrow’s noise envelope is a set of legally binding and enforceable limits and controls to manage noise in the future while enabling growth. It is a legally binding framework of limits and controls to manage noise. It will provide certainty both now and in the future. It will be reviewed after an agreed period. It will be designed to protect communities while enabling the airport to operate efficiently and allow it to grow within these limits. The Noise Envelope will deliver real benefits that can be shared between communities, consumers, and businesses during each stage of growth.
