Arizona U.S. Senators Urge FAA To Reach Sky Harbor Noise Solution

Court Has Ordered Mediation Between The City Of Phoenix And Community Representatives

U.S. Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Jeff Flake (R-AZ) sent a letter to FAA Administrator Michael Huerta urging the agency to reach a solution to the increase in flight path noise around Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport during an upcoming court-ordered mediation with the City of Phoenix and community representatives.

“We appreciate your attention to the concerns of our constituents associated with the FAA’s adjustment of these paths, and your acknowledgement that ‘[d]espite the litigation filed by the city and by Phoenix neighborhood groups, consistent with Congress’ intent, [the FAA remains] willing to work together to develop additional potential adjustments to the procedures,’” write Senators McCain and Flake.

“The upcoming mediation represents one approach to resolving this matter, and, in connection with this mediation, we urge you to use the tools and authority available to the FAA to reach a workable solution for the community around Sky Harbor and the FAA.”
