We need to get the  attention of politicians and the FAA to reduce noise in Accokeek from Reagan National airport

I wonder if this legislation will help us to get some needed airport noise relief from DCA?


 All of the politician seems to be concerned about the noise from DCA in Montgomery county and not very much concerned about the noise in Prince George’s County. The people in Montgomery County are highly organized and make the politician aware of their plight.

A letter I am sending to Senator Chris Van Hollen

I encourage you to check out the Montgomery County web site “Montgomery County Quiet Skies Coalition” - https://sites.google.com/site/208xxquietskies/home    Our wealthy good friends in Maryland (north of DCA) persuaded Montgomery County to appropriate over $300,000 for a noise study to submit to the FAA to support their case in reducing airport noise.
