As part of the noise monitoring program for Western Sydney International (Nancy-Bird Walton) Airport (WSI), several temporary noise monitors will be installed across Western Sydney and the Blue Mountains. Temporary noise monitors are useful in capturing information on flights in a larger number of areas, so communities can access noise and aircraft movement information relevant to them. These temporary monitors can also assist in identifying potential locations suitable for future permanent noise monitor installation. For more information about temporary and permanent noise monitors for WSI, please view the Noise Monitoring Program factsheet.
The purpose of this form is to enable community members to submit an expression of interest (EOI) for a temporary noise monitor to be installed on their private property, or to suggest a location (e.g. a street, suburb or council area) in which they would like a temporary noise monitor to be installed in. Please read the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) before submitting an EOI or location suggestion.
