Sacramento County hosts SMF (Sacramento Intl), Mather, Executive, and former McClellan airfields. Airport Land Use Compatibility Plans restrict residential density in 65+ dB CNEL contours.
The Sacramento County Airport System operates SMF, Mather, Executive, and Franklin Field. The Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG) adopts Airport Land Use Compatibility Plans (ALUCPs) that restrict new residential construction within the 65 dB CNEL contour. New homes in Natomas, Elverta, and parts of Rancho Cordova near Mather may require avigation easements and sound-attenuation construction. Federal FAA preemption (49 USC 40103) limits local authority over in-flight noise; complaints route through the SMF Noise Abatement Office. Former McClellan AFB is now McClellan Park, a general aviation airport with its own noise contours.
Development approvals denied or conditioned for projects in incompatible contours. No direct citations for flight noise.
