The FAA has asserted that it has improved its community engagement efforts over the past few years. To determine if these efforts have been adequate and resulted in improvements, from the perspective of local community groups, the Aviation-Impacted Communities Alliance (AICA) developed the project FAA Community Engagement Scorecard (FAACES). This project originated at the Aviation Noise and Emissions Symposium and received media coverage by Airport Noise Report (ANR).

“Community Engagement or DIS-Engagement” Presentation at Aviation Noise and Emissions (ANE) Symposium by Darlene Yaplee – May 2022

This presentation will discuss Community Engagement based on the speaker’s experience and perspectives from additional members of aviation-impacted communities. Is the term “community” used consistently? What is “meaningful engagement” for people near flight paths? Who is the “community” in Community Engagement? The presentation was subsequently covered by Airport Noise Report (ANR).
