Following a full public consultation in 2009, Birmingham Airport submitted a Noise Action Plan to the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs DEFRA.  The Airport's Noise Action Plan is a 5 year strategy setting out a series of actions and targets to assess, manage and where possible improve the noise climate around the Airport.  We are pleased to confirm that the Noise Action Plan was approved by the Secretary of State for DEFRA on 19th May 2011 and work will commence on progressing the noise actions.  Please click here to see a copy of the Birmingham Airport Noise Action Plan.
