The Mather Airport Aircraft Overflight Noise Group is a citizen working group chartered by the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors to identify potential actions that could reduce the impacts of noise from aircraft operating to or from Mather Airport.
Since it s inception in August of 2002, this collaborative regional forum has forwarded 33 recommendations, of which 30 have been accepted for implementation by the Sacramento County Airport System. An additional 12 recommendations forwarded by Sacramento County Airport System staff have been implemented or are planned to be in the future. Implementation of the accepted measures will enhance noise compatibility in the vicinity of Sacramento Mather Airport and reduce the impacts of aircraft noise on the residents and citizens of the County of Sacramento and surrounding jurisdictions. Meeting quarterly, the Mather Airport Aircraft Overflight Noise Group continues to collaboratively develop, implement, and assess new measures that will provide additional benefits to the entire region. The decision to reject a recommendation is made only after thorough investigation and/or testing indicates that either a less than satisfactory level of mitigation or other unacceptable and unanticipated adverse impacts will result from its implementation.
Sacramento County Airport System staff periodically review and report on the progress towards implementation of these recommendations to the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors. The most recent implementation status update report is available below.
