Noise management requires more than accurately assessing noise exposure. Our clients must strategically balance community concerns with airport growth objectives. LeighFisher has extensive experience in the preparation of noise studies. We develop unique approaches that use our industry-leading expertise in airspace analysis, land use planning, and operational assessments to yield insights that help in understanding and mitigating noise issues.
Our clients value both our technical expertise as well as our broader perspective of the challenges they face. We understand the importance of proactive stakeholder engagement which minimizes controversy by educating the community, building consensus, and establishing the credibility of the process. Our over-arching goal is to assist our clients in realizing their vision by developing and clearly communicating creative solutions to their complex noise issues.
Noise studies typically support environmental approval, airspace changes, or airport master planning studies. We are expert users of state-of-the-art noise modeling tools, which allow us to quickly analyze airport operational characteristics, quantify airport noise exposure, and assess noise abatement alternatives. We have served clients in noise-related engagements all over the world, and we are familiar with the various noise methodologies and metrics employed abroad.
