To: Marie Kennington-Gardiner, Regional Administrator, Eastern Region, U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA); FAA decision makers; Air Traffic Controllers at Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACON)
Whereas the notification for pilots to utilize Route 17, specifically RNAV GPS X RWY 19, to mitigate noise over Hackensack University Medical Center (HUMC), over Teterboro Aircraft Noise Abatement Advisory Committee (TANAAC) resident member towns and the Pascack Valley Region has been minimal; and
Whereas the large volume of private jets flying into Teterboro Airport (TEB) brings noise to levels intolerable for many residents in the Pascack Valley Region; and
Whereas TANAAC has been supportive of addressing these issues since 2016 and their resident members as well as Pascack Valley residents still need relief; and
Whereas since 2019 the air route over Route 17, RNAV GPS X, was established as an alternative route; and
Whereas voluntary noise abatement recommendations have failed to effectively achieve the necessary utilization of this route.
Now, therefore, the undersigned concerned residents, including the Mayors of Emerson, Hillsdale, Montvale, Old Tappan, Oradell, Park Ridge, River Vale, Washington Township, Westwood, and Woodcliff Lake and TANAAC resident members do hereby petition the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and air traffic controllers who mandate this air space to
- prioritize the Route 17 alternate route as the preferred route for arrivals to Runway 19 which is the RNAV GPS X at TEB Airport.
Background: The RNAV GPS X approach to Runway 19 avoids HUMC and the Pascack Valley region and provides relief to Teterboro Aircraft Noise Abatement Advisory Committee (TANAAC) resident members. The TANAAC Board is comprised of towns within five miles of Teterboro Airport which are concerned about the noise and flight patterns. The Taxpayers for Aircraft Noise Solution (TANS) is a community organization tasked with finding workable solutions to the aircraft noise which adversely affects the quality of life of residents in the Pascack Valley and surrounding towns. TANS’ members evolved from TANAAC and believe there are solutions which can be undertaken that would improve residents’ quality of life while continuing to provide safe and necessary access to air travel in and out of Teterboro Airport, Newark Airport and all others within our vicinity.

Glad to see the mayors finally grouping up on this. Maybe someone will actually listen now.
My kids wake up at 5am because of the noise. The voluntary stuff clearly isnt working so make it mandatory already.
Been hearing these planes for years and they just keep getting lower and louder. Please fix the flight paths.
it is getting so loud out here i cant even sit in my backyard anymore. enough is enough with these private jets flying over us all day long.
TOTAL NIGHTMARE. LITERALLY CONSTANT DRONE OVER OUR HEADS.
You cannot sit outside on Friday and Sunday night, constant flying over, non stop noise.
Its gotten out of control the airport noise. I hear it all night long cant even keep my windows open anymore due to the disruptive noise from the planes. I can hear landing gear dropping and it preparing, thats how close & noisy the planes are!
