Supplemental noise attenuation program for residences.
San José Municipal Code § 25.04.730
in effect25.04.730 - Supplemental noise attenuation program for residences.
A. The supplemental noise attenuation program is the airport's program for conducting interior noise level measurements of residential structures and schools to determine eligibility for noise attenuation. The program is to be conducted in those areas surrounding the airport which are within the projected 60 dB CNEL contour for the year 2010 identified in the 1997 Airport Master Plan EIR, but which are not specifically determined by its impact analysis to be significantly impacted by aircraft noise.
B. The supplemental noise attenuation program shall be conducted on a homeowner request basis, and shall be based on interior noise measurements of the residences.
C. Eligibility for possible residential noise attenuation soundproofing in the supplemental noise attenuation program shall be determined in accordance with the established criteria of the ACT program. If, due to unanticipated unique or exceptional circumstances, the requested noise measurement of a residence determines that the structure has an aircraft-related interior CNEL noise level of 45 dB or greater, the noise attenuation soundproofing measures in the ACT program shall be made available for such residence.
D. The objective shall be to conduct any such requested measurements and to complete the sound attenuation of any residences determined to be eligible by the year 2005. The supplemental noise attenuation program, however, shall remain available through the year 2010.
