BWI Roundtable continues to work toward solution for airplane noise after General Assembly study bill fails

Despite overwhelming support from the DC Metroplex BWI Community Roundtable, a state bill designed to create a commission to study the health effects of the airport on the surrounding community failed to pass the General Assembly during this year’s session. Ever since the 2015 implementation of the Federal Aviation Administration’s Next Generation Air Transportation System, airplane noise has been an issue in Anne Arundel, Howard and Baltimore counties, said Mary Reese, of the BWI Roundtable, a liaison group between BWI Marshall Airport and the surrounding community.
