AIRPORT NOISE ZONE MAPS <br />The attached generalized maps depict the overall noise zones for the region's <br />public airports. The noise zones reflect both federal and state noise <br />standards, incorporating aspects of both annualized and peak operating <br />conditions for policy reasons. These policy noise contour maps are part of the <br />Aviation Chapter of the Metropolitan Development Guide and are periodically <br />reassessed based upon updates of individual airport long-term comprehensive <br />plans, regional aviation system plans, or special studies. When noise zone <br />maps are revised, affected communities are notified as part of the Council's <br />annual Guide Amendment Systems Statement notification process. For local <br />community comprehensive planning purposes, the Metropolitan Council provides <br />the specific airport(s) noise zone information on half -section maps. <br />4II <br />
