9. ADJOURNMENT
In March 2015, the Daily Breeze reported that a new hotline and website
was set up for reporting helicopter noise. Although many county residents
are not aware that there are no minimum altitudes for helicopters
and most flights do not appear on flight tracking systems,
many complaints have still been lodged with the FAA’s new
Heli-Noise-LA complaint system.According to Wayne Williams, a coalition board member and member
of the Van Nuys Airport Citizens Advisory Council, the system
has “logged a complaint on average every seven minutes,
with more than 34,000 complaints in the past six months.”To read full article:
