March 5, 2020 are the only authoritative source of airspace impact information as stated in the AELUP. ii. The AELUP clearly identifies its airport land use planning standards around aircraft noise, safety, and height. Objective measures of these standards are clearly identified in AELUP Section 2.1. The Project is consistent with each of these objective standards. iii. Two-dimensional flight tracks and a list of unassociated aircraft do nothing to inform the impact of overflights. The ALUC provided one day of arrival flight tracks, one day of departure flight tracks and lists of aircraft by time of day and altitude that were purported to have produced these flight tracks. iv. The Project proponent prepared three-dimensional models of the ALUC-provided flight track information to depict actual overflight proximity to a scaled model of the Project. These three- dimensional models show that some residents and users of the property would likely be able to see aircraft flying past the property from certain locations. Aircraft noise information from the AELUP, the JWA GAIP EIR and from the Project EIR demonstrate that the noise impact would be less than 60 dBA CNEL and less than single event noise standards identified in the JWA GAIP EIR. V. Aircraft noise contours used to objectively measure noise impact already assume flight tracks and actual operating conditions for a full year including future operations. One day of arrival flight tracks and one day of departure flight tracks are simple anecdotes and not substantive evidence. vi. The project is located outside of the JWA single event noise exposure areas documented in the JWA General Aviation Improvement Program EIR certified on June 25, 2019. The project developer presented this information to the ALUC Commission at its hearing on May 21, 2020. vii. ALUC Commissioners Monin and Murphy asked for but did not receive evidence of general aviation aircraft using Runway 2R/20L would "be turning right in front of the site." In fact, the GA aircraft pattern and voluntary noise abatement procedures for Runway 2R/20L operate within one to two miles from the end of the runway north of the airport and on a 15-degree offset from the extended runway centerline to avoid airspace conflicts with aircraft arriving Runway 20R. This location places GA aircraft south of Barranca Parkway and aligned with the Tustin Legacy property southeast of the Project site. These regular GA aircraft flight tracks are Resolution No. 2020-xx 75C-807 Page 9 of 13
