Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport Noise Management Study Draft Report
February 8, 2010
The Toronto Port Authority ("TPA") has released the results of a comprehensive noise management study at the Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport ("BBTCA") undertaken by Jacobs Consultancy Canada Inc. ("Jacobs") between 2008 and 2009.
Jacobs has been collecting noise data around the BBTCA since the Fall of 2008. To accompany this study, the TPA formed the Noise Management Study Advisory Group ("NMSAG") consisting of local residents and including Toronto City Councillors Adam Vaughan and Pam McConnell. The NMSAG has met three times since November, 2008, to examine research models, analyze noise data collected, and discuss related measures to reduce and manage noise.
An open house will be held on February 17, 2010, between 7:30 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. in Salon “B” at the Radisson Admiral Hotel, 249 Queen’s Quay West, to provide the public an opportunity to speak with representatives of the TPA and their consulting team on the various recommendations that have been proposed in the report.
