• Abstract:
  During the summer of 2010 (September - October 2010), the Volpe Center collected
  
  collected baseline acoustical data at Fort Davis National Historic Site (FODA)at
  
  two sites deployed for approximately 30 days each. The baseline data collected
  
  during this period will help park managers and planners estimate the effects of
  
  future noise impacts and will help to inform future park planning objectives such
  
  as creating soundscape management plans, as well as the development of an Air
  
  Tour Management Plan (ATMP), which provides for the regulation of commercial air
  
  tours. The sound sources of concern at FODA include developments near park
  
  boundaries, air tours, commercial and private aircraft activities, and requests
  
  for special use permits for noisy activities. This document summarizes the
  
  results of the noise measurement study.
