Bill Summary

A BILL To develop pilot grant programs through the Environmental Protection Agency to research and collect data on air- craft and airport noise and emissions and to use such information and data to develop a mitigation strategy, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill, the Aviation Noise and Emissions Mitigation Act, would establish two pilot grant programs through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The first program would fund research and data collection on aircraft and airport noise and emissions, using advanced technology to trace the sources and impacts on specific neighborhoods and communities near airports or flight paths. The second program would provide grants to local community groups, public health departments, and tribal governments to implement mitigation strategies based on the data collected, focusing on disadvantaged and disproportionately impacted communities. The bill requires the EPA to submit annual and final reports to Congress on the progress and outcomes of these grant programs.
