Presentation:
Elaine Buckner, Federal Aviation Administration, Air Traffic Control Manager, Minneapolis – St. Paul International Airport
MINNEAPOLIS AIRPORT TRAFFIC CONTROL TOWER (MSP ATCT)
MSP is ranked 16th busiest airport in the nation with over 400,000 operations per year. MSP Tower and Tracon staffed 24/7 by over 120 air traffic controllers, traffic management controllers, supervisors, managers and support personnel. Our primary duty is to provide a safe, orderly and expeditious flow of traffic to MSP and the surrounding airspace. Safe – Ensuring aircraft separation and system safety in the air and on
the ground Orderly – Applying air traffic control rules to ensure system integrity –
which in turn support safety Expeditious – Maintaining an efficient throughput of arrivals and
departures, keeping demand and capacity in balance – again, this in turn supports safety

Noise Oversight CommitteeNovember 19, 2014
Item 4 (continued)Selected 2014 NOC Accomplishments• MSP Annual Noise contour Report for the first year of the 1st Amendment.• Prepared and approved NOC Resolution #1 – 2014 which provided
extensive history of the NOC’s involvement in the MSP NextGen flightprocedures process and endorsed the implementation of NextGen STARsarrivals at MSP.
• Reviewed an analysis of the Runway Use System which found air trafficdemand and winds, among many other factors, have important rolerunway use configuration.
• Conducted a noise monitoring study for the cities of Edina and St. LouisPark.
Noise Oversight CommitteeNovember 19, 2014
Item 4 (continued)Selected 2014 NOC Accomplishments• Developed a video library of guest speakers at NOC meetings to educate
the public on aviation issues. Videos include: FAA Air Traffic Control, SoundMeasurement, Aviation Innovations, the MAC CIP Process, and Air CarrierScheduling.
• Reviewed a comprehensive analysis of the Metropolitan AirportsCommission Noise and Operations Monitoring System, which found noiseevents and flight tracks to be strongly correlated and accurate withinhistorical norms.
• Approved a comment letter to the FAA regarding the categorical exclusionof environmental review for RNAV procedures, noting that airportoperators and communities must be involved early on in the RNAV processand that consideration must be given to unique and specific extraordinarycircumstances that are present at the local level regarding RNAV.
• Reviewed a detailed Seasonal Effects on Aircraft Operations study thatfound distinct seasonal aircraft operations patterns based on passengerdemand.

Item 6St. Louis Park and Edina Noise Monitoring Report• Report Scope approved by NOC May 8, 2014
– The noise monitoring will be focused on assessing existing aircraft noise levels.– The noise monitoring will be conducted for a period of two weeks in the fall of 2014.– The monitoring will be limited to three locations in the area bound by I‐494 on the
south, Xerxes Avenue on the east from the intersection of I‐494 and Xerxes Avenueextending in a straight line north to I‐394, I‐394 on the north, and Trunk Highway 169 onthe west.
– Two of the monitoring locations will be within the City of Edina and one will be locatedin the City of St. Louis Park.
– The specific location of the monitors shall be determined by the respective cities, inconsultation with MAC staff.
– The final report is due by December 1, 2014.
St. Louis Park and Edina Noise Monitoring Study
• Noise Monitoring began at 12:00 a.m. on August 22, 2014 and concluded at 11:59 p.m. on September 4, 2014.

Aviation Environmental Design Tool (AEDT) Update
The FAA recently announced that release of the Aviation EnvironmentalDesign Tool (AEDT) scheduled for the end of 2014 has been moved to May 29,2015. The AEDT is a new software program prepared by the FAA and isintended to replace the Integrated Noise Model software program that isused by the MAC and its consultants to prepare noise contour maps for MSP.MAC consultants will be using the existing INM software to prepare the actual2014 noise contour map due by March 1, 2015.
