Everything South City continues to receive noise complaints from neighbors as we work through the months of flight pattern changes due to work at the airport. The federally mandated work on the two runways,28L and 28R, should be completed by the end of September. While it is good to check in with neighbors on this noise issue, contacting the right authorities will benefit our community so please read the info below.

This section provides descriptions of the core noise programs supported by the SFO Aircraft Noise Abatement Office.
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
The FAA is responsible for directing the movement of aircraft both on the ground and in the air. This Federal agency designs air travel routes and procedures, including defining separation distances between aircraft, determining hazards to aviation, and other safety criteria governing both airports and aircraft. All air traffic controllers work for the FAA as part of one national airspace system. Although other aviation organizations including airports and airlines may petition the FAA regarding flight procedures, only the FAA has the final say in what is safe and acceptable, and only FAA controllers may assign a flight procedure to a pilot.
San Francisco International Airport/Community Roundtable
The Community Roundtable consists of elected representatives from 23 municipalities near SFO. Its bi-monthly meetings are the forum for public discussion about airport noise abatement activities, and the motivating force behind multiple programs. All meetings are on the first Wednesday of the scheduled month at 7:00 p.m.
