Part 150 Noise Compatibility Study Public Open House Wednesday, April 9, 2025, 4:30-6:30 p.m. Greenwood Village Maintenance Facility – Mt. Elbert Room 10001 E. Costilla Ave., Greenwood Village, CO 80112 Centennial Airport will hold its second public open house for the 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 150 Noise Compatibility Study on Wednesday, April 9, 2025, beginning at 4:30 p.m. at the Greenwood Village Maintenance Facility – Mt. Elbert Room (2nd floor). The purpose of the meeting is to share the progress and work products of the Study completed since the first public meeting and gather input from the public. The Study Team will share the FAA-approved forecasts and draft noise contours, the results of the land use analysis, and preliminary information on the range of potential alternatives in an open-house format. Anyone interested can stop by at their convenience between 4:30 and 6:30 p.m. to view display boards with Study information, speak one-on-one with members of the Study Team and Airport staff, and share their ideas, comments, and questions with the Study Team. There will be no formal presentation.
The Study is being conducted to identify and evaluate current and future noise effects associated with aircraft operations at Centennial Airport. The goal of the Study is to work with surrounding communities and stakeholders to reduce the number of people affected by aircraft noise. Questions and comments can be submitted in-person during the meeting or online at: https://apa150noisestudy.com/contact/. For additional information, please visit the Study website: https://apa150noisestudy.com/ Find the change here.
Here's a quote from Centennial Airport on how this will affect our area. Basically, no impact to noise either way, but it does sound like they are requiring the pilots to communicate with ATC. "The primary objective of this change is to eliminate the gap that previously existed between Centennial’s and Buckley’s airspace. As a result, pilots transiting this area will now be required to communicate with air traffic control. Additionally, this expanded airspace ensures that all Final Approach fixes for instrument approaches will fall within our airspace, allowing FAA Air Traffic Control to exercise greater authority over instrument traffic. While the shape of the airspace is now slightly altered, the overall circular structure remains intact, and there is no proposed change to how pattern traffic is handled. The main operational effect is that aircraft will now need to communicate with Air Traffic Control over a wider area." Data visualization courtesy of aiREFORM.com. This spreadsheet contains data for fuel sold at the airport from 2012 through 2024. This will be updated periodically so the community can get an analysis of how the airport's operations have changed, shifting from jet and private plane traffic to primarily a training facility.
