| Abstract | In response to public concerns about nonmilitary helicopter noise impact on densely populated communities, the United States Congress directed the Secretary of Transportation to investigate and develop recommendations on reducing helicopter noise effects. Legislative guidance was developed and specified in the FAA authorization act entitled “Wendell H. Ford Aviation Investment and Reform Act for the 21st Century” (Public Law 106-181) under Section 747 - Nonmilitary Helicopter Noise. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) carried out this study on behalf of the Secretary. |
