Environment and Community Noise Resource Center

Welcome to the Chicago Airport System Community Noise Resource Center. The City of Chicago has developed this resource center to inform individuals and the communities around O'Hare and Midway Airports of the City's ongoing efforts including: The Fly Quiet Program, Residential Sound Insulation Program, School Sound Insulation Program, and Airport Noise Monitoring System. The Community Noise Resource Center at O'Hare is located in the Department of Aviation Administration Building. The City of Chicago owns and operates O'Hare and Midway Airports and is committed to reducing aircraft noise in the surrounding communities.

We have a new website "under construction". Many of the reports on the Environment website are in a PDF format and in order to be viewed, require the Adobe Reader or Adobe Reader 9 with features for assistive technology to be downloaded, as noted below.
