While the Federal Aviation Administration and Port Authority of New York and New Jersey are invited to attend and participate in all TVASNAC meetings, the focus of the August 27th meeting will be to understand the benefits and challenges of conducting a Part 150 study. The invited speaker is Henry A.F. Young of Young Environmental Sciences, Inc,, an Aviation Consultant from Manhasset, N.Y. F.A.R. Part 150 is a voluntary program that U.S. airports may undertake to seek a balance between their operational needs and the noise impacts their operations have on surrounding neighborhoods.

If airplane noise is a problem for you, this is your chance to learn about the issues and voice complaints about how airplane noise impacts your life. The meeting will be held on Monday, August 27th at 7:30 pm at the Stewart Manor Country Club (51 Salisbury Avenue, Stewart Manor). It is critical that all Stewart Manor residents, and all interested parties, attend this meeting and show support for the cause to better redistribute flights.
