Statute overview

About this statute

Member States must implement this Directive by 31 December 2018, notify the Commission, and use the Annex assessment methods from that date. The Commission establishes and updates the common noise assessment methods. This provision sets out how to model railway and industrial noise, including source heights, aerodynamic noise, directivity, bridge corrections, working hours, and propagation calculations. This provision defines aircraft-noise modelling terms and sets quality requirements for the data and software used in the calculations. This provision explains how to build and segment aircraft flight profiles and ground tracks for noise modelling, including how to handle turns, takeoff roll, climb, landing roll, speed changes, and reverse thrust. This segment explains methods for calculating aircraft noise levels, contours, and population exposure around airports.
