Bill 119 hr 1484, also known as the "Health Impacts of Air Traffic Noise and Pollution Act," aims to address the potential health impacts of air traffic noise and pollution. The bill directs the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to work with the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to conduct a comprehensive study on the health effects of air traffic noise and pollution.
The study will focus on how air traffic noise and pollution from airports and aircrafts may impact the health of individuals living near these areas. The goal is to better understand the potential risks and develop strategies to mitigate any negative health effects.
In addition to the study, the bill also includes provisions for the FAA to collaborate with relevant stakeholders, such as local communities, environmental organizations, and industry experts, to gather input and recommendations for addressing the health impacts of air traffic noise and pollution.
Overall, the "Health Impacts of Air Traffic Noise and Pollution Act" seeks to provide valuable insights into the potential health risks associated with air traffic activities and to develop evidence-based solutions to protect the well-being of individuals living near airports and flight paths.
