Info

program was administered by the DITRDLG with funds raised from a noise levy applied to passenger tickets for jet aircraft operating at Sydney Airport. According to the DITRDLG website all eligible properties under the Program have now been insulated. This involved the insulation of 4,083 homes and 99 public buildings (schools, churches, day care centres and hospitals). In addition, 147 residences have been voluntarily acquired and the land turned into a park. DITRDLG has indicated that it will continue to monitor the noise contours in Sydney for any changes. The current and future status of the Sydney Airport Noise Amelioration Program is a matter for the Australian Government. Table 14.4 building site acceptability based on ANEF Zones building type ANEF zone site 140 Ground-based noise Noise from ground-based activities at Sydney Airport is managed separately to noise from aircraft operations. Ground-based noise is generated from a number of sources on the Airport including: • road traffic • construction and development activities • operation of audible alarm and warning systems • operation of plant and equipment • taxiing aircraft • aircraft engine ground running • operation of aircraft auxiliary power units (APUs). Acceptable Conditional unacceptable House, home unit, Less than 20 ANEF 20 to 25 ANEF (Note 2) Greater than 25 ANEF flat, caravan park (Note 1) Hotel, motel, hostel Less than 25 ANEF 25 to 30 ANEF Greater than 30 ANEF Hostel, school, university Less than 20 ANEF (Note 1) 20 to 25 ANEF (Note 2) Greater than 25 ANEF Hospital, nursing home Less than 20 ANEF (Note 1) 20 to 25 ANEF Greater than 25 ANEF Public buildiing Less than 20 ANEF (Note 1) 20 to 30 ANEF Greater than 30 ANEF Commercial building Less than 25 ANEF 25 to 35 ANEF Greater than 35 ANEF Light industrial Less than 30 ANEF 30 to 40 ANEF Greater than 40 ANEF Other industrial Acceptable in all ANEF zone Source: AS2021-2000 NOTES: 1. The actual location of the 20 ANEF contour is difficult to define accurately, mainly because of variation in aircraft flight paths. Because of this, the procedure of Clause 2.3.2 of AS2021-2000 may be followed for building sites outside but near to the 20 ANEF. 2. Within 20 ANEF to 25 ANEF, some people may find that the land is not compatible with residential or educational uses. Land use authorities may consider that the incorporation of noise control features in the construction of residences or schools is appropriate. 3. There will be cases where a building of a particular type will contain spaces used for activities which would generally be found in a different type of building (e.g. an office in an industrial building). In these cases Table 2.1 of AS 2021-2000 should be used to determine site acceptability, but internal design noise levels within the specific spaces should be determined by Table 3.3 of AS2021-2000. 4. This standard does not recommend development in unacceptable areas. However, where the relevant planning authority determines that any development may be necessary within existing build-up areas designed as unacceptable, it is recommended that such development should achieve the required ANR determined according to Clause 3.2 of AS2021-2000. For residences, schools, etc., the effect of aircraft noise on outdoor areas associated with the buildings should be considered. 5. In no case should new development take place in greenfield sites deemed unacceptable because such development may impact airport operations.
On average, Sydney Airport receives less than eight complaints annually from the community in relation to ground-based noise. The majority of these complaints relate to aircraft engine ground-running. Ground running at the airport is carried out at the Qantas run-up bays on the northern edge of the Airport and, with permission from Sydney Airport, at eight other locations by other airlines operating from the Airport. Sydney Airport has a ground based noise management strategy. Engine ground running, which is an essential part of aircraft operations and maintenance, is regulated by a policy that includes a comprehensive set of operational rules designed to maintain safety levels, comply with relevant standards and practices, and minimise noise. The AES provides detailed information regarding management of ground-based noise. These management practices will be maintained and improved as appropriate for the future airport operations. In addition to operational rules, Qantas, as part of its plans to upgrade its Jet Base located in the Airport’s Northern Sector, is considering upgrading the attenuation measures associated with its ground running facilities. Noise impacts associated with construction activities are assessed during the development approval process (see Appendix C). Noise monitoring of individual projects is undertaken where necessary. Sydney Airport is replacing APU usage (a known source of ground-based aircraft noise) with ground power and preconditioned air at all aerobridge gates at T1 as well as retrofitting any remaining gates at T2 not already fitted with ground power. Sydney Airport is also committed to the Engine Ground Running Rules and achieving minimal complaints regarding ground based noise. This Master Plan also allows for the construction of a hush hangar, a sound insulated enclosed hangar in which ground running would take place, at Sydney Airport. 14.2.2 Sustainability and climate change Sydney Airport’s Commitment to sustainability Sydney Airport is committed to sustainable development and taking a proactive approach to environmental responsibility and action. As stated in the Sydney Airport Environmental Policy (2006), Sydney Airport ‘recognises its responsibility in managing Sydney Airport in a sustainable manner’ and is: 14.0 Sustainability, Climate Change and Environmental Management Sydney Airport Master Plan 2009 committed to… Sustainability: through adopting measures to reduce natural resource usage and minimise impact, and to consider the environmental, social and economic implications of our actions’. The policy establishes the principles for sustainable use of the Airport from which objectives, targets and action programs are developed. The Environmental Policy commits Sydney Airport to adopting world’s best practice measures to enhance environmental performance and ensure continual improvement. A summary of SACL’s sustainability initiatives is listed in Table 14.9. Climate change is now recognised as real and present; even though some uncertainty remains around the extent of change and the expected impacts. In responding to climate change, two broad categories of response strategies exist. The first response is to reduce greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere in an effort to reduce the rate and overall magnitude of future climate change. The second response is the adaptation to the impacts of climate change of all sectors of society and the economy. Adaptation is the principal means by which to build resilience and reduce vulnerability within local communities and economies. It involves a combination of risk management and a range of adjustment activities. In addressing these response strategies, SACL in association with the aviation industry and in discussion with the Australian Government will look towards reducing its carbon footprint (further discussed in the Carbon Neutrality section below) and implementing appropriate climate change adaptation strategies. Global aviation industry commitment to action on climate change All industries – including aviation – contribute to the problem of climate change and all must be a part of the solution. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has estimated that aviation accounts for only around 2% of global carbon dioxide emissions. However, it is growing and is estimated to reach 3% by 2050. Nevertheless, being a relatively small contributor to overall emissions is not a licence for complacency. Aviation’s challenge is to retain the many positive economic and social benefits that aviation provides, while reducing or eliminating its negative environmental impacts. The signing in April 2008 of the Global Aviation Industry Commitment to Action on Climate Change by aviation industry leaders – including Sydney Airport – is an important demonstration of aviation’s worldwide commitment to introducing technological, operational and 141
