Clark County is seeking applicants from the Camas/Washougal area for the Portland International Airport Citizen Noise Advisory Committee, or PDX CNAC. The county has one appointment to the 15-member committee. The term begins Jan. 1, 2022, and expires Jan. 1, 2025.
This committee acts on behalf of local jurisdictions as the official forum to address community PDX aircraft noise concerns; provides input on the implementation of the current PDX Noise Compatibility Plan; reviews aircraft noise issues and provides advice on resolution and follow-up; and develops ideas and recommends proposals for future airport noise plans, along with other activities.
The committee generally meets from 5-7:30 p.m. the second Thursday of every odd-numbered month at Portland International Airport. Meetings are currently being held virtually.
Given the technical nature of noise, it is not expected that any volunteer appointee be an expert on the topic. Volunteers will be assisted by Port of Portland staff.
