| The sound insulation program was restructured due to the impact
of hurricane Katrina. The focus was shifted to more sound insulating
and acquisition of properties. The FAA approved a local amendment
to the Part 150 Study on 8 March 2006. The amendment approved the
change in the approach to mitigation and approximately $28,265,000
in additional funding. The funding would be provided through annual
grants as requested by the Airport Authority. The sound insulation
and avigation easement purchase elements of the program are now
underway. |
