San Diego International Airport Page 29
4.1.20 The Port District will continue to provide to the County of San Diego, and will make
available for public inspection and review, the noise and aircraft operations related
information contained in the quarterly reports prepared by the District pursuant to the
California Noise Standards.
FAA Action: Approved.
Implementation Status: Implemented as required by the California Noise Standards, Title 21.
4.1.21 The Port District will expand the quarterly reports, beginning in the First Quarter of
1989, including information at Lindbergh Field concerning air carrier fleet mix,
anticipated aircraft deliveries, operations activities, applications for fleet variances,
and a summary of any enforcement activity taken during the quarterly period.
FAA Action: Approved.
Implementation Status: Implemented. The Airport Authority ceased providing this additional
information into the quarterly reports after calendar year 2000 when the commercial aircraft fleet for
the nation became 100% Stage 3. Fleet variances ended in 1999 when all SAN operators were
required to be 100% Stage 3.
4.1.22 The Port District will cooperate with any program developed by the City of San Diego
and the County of San Diego, to give public recognition to airport users who have
conducted their operations at Lindbergh Field in a manner of substantial benefit to
the people of San Diego. This cooperation does not obligate the Port District to
expend funds in support of any program.
FAA Action: Approved.
Implementation Status: Implemented. Each year the Noise Mitigation Department publicly
acknowledges each of the regularly scheduled airlines who maintain compliance with the Airport
Use Regulations for the previous calendar year through a compliance award.
4.1.23 The Port District will cooperate with the pending, Federally-funded SANDAG airport
site selection study and with any other studies conducted by public agencies in San
Diego County concerning air service in the San Diego Region. This cooperation does
not obligate the Port District to expend funds in support of any program.
FAA Action: Approved.
Implementation Status: Implemented. Potential sites for relocating San Diego International Airport
were under continuous study from 2001 to a County-wide election in 2006. The effort began with
the Air Transportation Action Program, a joint prospect of the San Diego Association of
Governments and the Port District, and continued as the Airport Site Selection Program (ASSP).
The ASSP was conducted by the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority as part of the
California legislative requirement to conduct a comprehensive study of all potential airport sites and
solutions to meet the region’s air transportation needs through the year 2030. Seventy -two potential
sites for relocating San Diego International Airport were evaluated, and five sites were selected to
undergo a comprehensive detailed alternatives analysis for the purpose of developing a
recommendation for a new airport location. A final recommendation was presented to the people of
San Diego County as a ballot measure for a county-wide (non-binding) vote in November 2006,
which did not pass. Therefore, the Airport Authority must continue to ensure the viability of the
current site to provide the air service to meet the needs of the local communities.
