Sea-Tac Noise complaints continue
For the six months from September 2009 through February 2010, the Sea-Tac noise hotline recorded noise complaints from more than 300 different households, according to a log of complaints released to RCAA by the Airport yesterday. Calls came in from more than 50 different ZIP codes, 25 different cities, & from all four Western Washington area codes.
With multiple calls from the same household NOT included, here is a month-by-month breakdown:
September 2009 99
October 2009 64
November 2009 29
December 2009 22
January 2010 51
February 2010 44
It is striking that noise impacts are felt & reported in places far, far removed from the very small area defined by the 65 DNL maps -- Shoreline, Lake Forest Park, Kirkland, & even Sumner, to mention a few.The number of complaints is noteworthy, also, because nothing ever seems to happen at the Airport as the result of citizens complaining to the hotline's voice-mail system, so there seems to be little purpose to making the call. Yet the complaints continue.
RCAA has urged the Part 150 study team to take a hard look at the reports of commercial jets overhead in places where no jets should be heard, if established flight procedures are being followed. Such flights may be part of the reason for noise so far from the Airport. Clearly, however, the 300-plus complaints point to a severe noise problem from routine operations. Will the Part 150 study team pay attention to these data? Will the Port Commission require the study team to propose changes that will bring real relief to the thousands of people living under too-much-noise, but not within the 65 DNL line?
