Munich and Frankfurt airports to test emission-based landing fees:
It was announced on September 28th that Munich and Frankfurt airports
plan to introduce an emission surcharge as part of the take-off
and landing fees, for a three-year test phase. The German Airport
Transport Initiative developed the pilot project in consultation
with the Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Affairs. A charge
of 3 Euros per kilogram of nitrous oxide (NOx) emissions for all
airlines landing in Frankfurt and Munich will go into effect starting
January 1, 2008. |

Noise monitoring has taken place at Frankfurt Airport since
1964. The actual Noise Monitoring System was set into operation
in 1988. It meets the requirements laid down in the Air Traffic
Act (LVG).
One of the most important system requirements is the automatic
correlation of noise data with aircraft movements and weather
conditions to identify the source of noise impact.
The Noise Monitoring System (NMS) incorporates the following
functions:
- continuous monitoring of noise pollution in the vicinity
of the cites, towns and settlements
- separation of aircraft noise and other noise
- processing aircraft noise data
- correlation of aircraft noise to the flight movements concerned
- compilation of evaluations and statistics
- maintenance of configuration parameter data and base data
The Noise Monitoring System comprises:
- 25 measuring points in the vicinity of the airport
- 5 measuring points located at the runways (to configurate
time-windows)
- a mobile monitoring station
- the central unit, consisting of
- a real-time computer to
- display current noise and aircraft data, also weather
and frequency data
- correlate this data automatically and/or with user interaction
- fill in missing data - correct data
- a database computer
- to display and store maintenance and base data (10
years available)
- for statistical distribution of noise levels and flight
movements, weather conditions
- for aircraft type and airline noise levels, standard
aircraft-specific noise levels
- to generate a Noise Report and special reports (i.e.
for single and different purposes)
The implementation of a local area network (LAN) offers a possibility
to expand the system by computers and peripheral equipment with
existing and future systems at the airport.
The data (reports and calculations) obtained by this system
are used for:
- the calculation of the landing charges at Frankfurt airport
(partly),
- forecast data of noise and air-traffic development
- information for the noise abatement officer and the airline
representatives
- testing and monitoring flight procedures
- dealing with complaints from the residents of the airport's
vicinity
Noise values are calculated in accordance to DIN 45643 (3.1.1)
in terms of
L AZ expressed in units of dB(A). This unit of effective noise
takes into account, first the actual sound energy received on
the ground, second an approximation of the ear's response to that
sound energy, and third a time duration value of the noise. If
the noise does not exceed L ASmax = 70 db(A) a standard value
is used for calculation.
Aircraft are assessed and collected according to their take-off
weight, to the number of engines and to their ICAO Annex 16 certification.
Approach noise caused by approaches on
Runway 25 is measured at Monitoring Point 1 (MP 1) located approximately
6.5 nm before threshold, on Runway 07 at MP 5 (4 nm).
Departure noise is measured in approximately
6.5 nm after break release at a gate of 2 monitoring points located
half a mile left and right of the route.
Type Level
The Type Level is an average noise level of all companies using
a similar type of aircraft. The sum of all (minus 5% of the quietest
and minus 5% of the noisiest flights) L AZ caused by this type
of aircraft is divided by the number of approaches or departures.
The Type Level allows to differentiate between avoidable and unavoidable
noise. It is the measure used for all further comparison.
Fleet Noise Level
Each company (recorded and identified by flight number) has its
own Fleet Noise Level. This is the sum of all L AZ's recorded
from each individual company with a similar type of aircraft and
divided by the number of measured approaches or departures.
Rank Order
The Rank Order of each company depends on its Fleet Noise Level.
The company with the lowest average noise level on arrival or
departure is ranked number 1 with the other companies following
in order of their noise levels produced.
Excesses
Flights producing sound levels double the Type Level are considered
to have produced excessive noise i.e. when the sound level is
even more than 4 dB(A) above the Type Level. These flights were
reported immediately to the company involved via the Larmschutz-Beauftragten
of the Hessischen Ministers Fur Wirtschaft und Technik. These
are especially emphasized, since they could have been avoided,
except in special cases.
Exceptions
When special instructions from ATC to the Pilot or emergencies
are the cause for excessive noise levels, then these cases should
be reported immediately to the Larmschutz-Beauftragten who will
determine if these were unavoidable noise levels and should be
removed from the calculations for that company.
Meteorological Influences
Noise impact is to some extent influenced by the weather. Therefore
the calculation of Type Level and Fleet Noise Level is made with
out periods of extreme weather conditions. Extreme weather conditions
are relative humidity (<30%), wind component (>20 KT), and
temperature (>25 degrees C), measured at the airport. |
