Los Angeles Area Helicopter Noise Coalition Petitions - Please Sign!

On October 20, 2015, four petitions were filed with the FAA asking them to develop regulations that would reduce helicopter noise.

These were: Helicopter Minimum Altitudes Petition - Require non-emergency helicopters to fly at least 2,000 feet above ground level, with some exceptions;

Helicopter Hover/Orbit Restrictions Petition Require media and tour helicopters to hover/orbit in any one location for no longer than five minutes in any one-hour period, with some exceptions;

Mandatory Media Helicopter Pooling Petition - Require media helicopters to plan for pooling coverage during planned and unplanned incidents;

and Shore Line Route Petition - Require helicopters flying along the coastline to fly at least one-half mile offshore to reduce noise onshore. The Los Angeles Area Helicopter Noise Coalition (LAAHNC) proposed regulations are fair and effective. They don't want any regulations to interfere with emergency helicopters (police, fire, medical, etc) in their performance of active missions. That's why all petitions include exemptions for such situations. However, the Coalition wants all helicopters including emergency responders not on active missions, to fly higher, hover less, pool resources, and fly further offshore where possible and safe. To succeed, strong public support is critical.

Public comments are needed in support of the petitions. The LAAHNC website below has the links to comment on the official FAA dockets associated with each petition. http://lahelicopternoise.org/mobilize/

Visit the Los Angeles Area Helicopter Noise Coalition website at http://lahelicopternoise.org/mobilize and tell the FAA and elected officials how badly we need helicopter noise regulations!

David Ryu's New Website

I'm writing to share some exciting news with you. Today my new City Council website

has officially launched.

My goal is to start a new conversation with you on how we can restore faith and rebuild trust in our local government. I'm committed to meaningful community engagement in the decisions that affect our lives, greater fiscal accountability and a renewed commitment to our neighborhoods.

My website is a great place to learn more about what's going on in our communities and City Hall.

More importantly, it's a place where you can let me know about the issues that concern you and your family the most.

If there is any way I may be of assistance, please contact my field deputy for your area: Catherine Landers.

Sincerely,

David Ryu
