ICAO 9184 PART 2 AMD 1 PDF

Foreword

The -purpose of this part of the manual is to provide guidance material on land-use planning in the vicinity of airports and on environmental control regarding airport development and operations. It was originally based on conclusions of the Special Meet~ng on Aircraft Noise in the Vicinity of Aerodromes held in 1969 and on the current practices of several States. It incorporates guidance material on airport environmental aspects as recommended by the Eighth Air Navigation Conference held in 1974.

"Land-use Planning" and "Environmental Control" are terms of relevance used by airport planners for planning the airport and its environs with a view to ensuring the safety of aircraft operations. Since these issues have evolved considerably in recent years, it was necessary to update the information included in previous editions of the manual.

This publication reflects updates from the Committee on Aviation Environmental. Protection (CAEP) that were fIrst presented to CAEP/4 in 1998. Further updates have (iii) since been added and this fmal version of the manual was approved at the CAEP/7 meeting in February 2007.

It is intended that the manual be kept up to date. Future editions will be improved based on the results of the work of ICAO and of comments and suggestions received from the users of this manual. Readers are therefore invited to give their views, comments and suggestions on this edition. These should be directed to the Secretary General of ICAO.
