	Noise Abatement
		Noise abatement procedures are aircraft operating requirements specifically designed to reduce noise impacts on communities and neighbourhoods surrounding airports.
		Noise abatement procedures are in-flight operations designed to minimize noise disturbances to residential areas along flight paths, as well as areas close to the airport.
		The noise abatement procedures in place for Winnipeg International Airport are consistent with those in place for other international airports across the country, but are specific to the pattern of land use around the airport, the runway layout and the wind conditions which influence safe aircraft arrivals and departures.

	Noise Abatement Analysis
		Noise abatement measures (e.g., construction of a noise barrier) were considered for reducing noise impacts when the predicted peak-noise-hour levels were expected to approach or exceed FHWA Noise Abatement Criteria (NAC) for appropriate land use categories (see Table 3.5-1).
		Noise barriers must reduce future predicted noise levels at impacted receptors by at least five dBA to be considered feasible.
		Noise insulation of residential dwellings is typically only considered when severe traffic noise impacts are predicted and normal abatement measures are not physically feasible or economically reasonable.

	LVI - Noise Abatement
		Noise abatement is an increasingly important component of environmental protection.
		The importance of noise abatement has its origins in the increased awareness of just how damaging noise can be for the human organism and also in the reduced extent to which those affected are prepared to put up with the high levels of noise they are exposed to.
		Moreover, secondary noise abatement measures are usually aimed at influencing sound propagation by means of sound dampening techniques or noise insulation.
