Gold Coast Airport is part of an established Airport Noise Abatement Consultative Committee (ANACC) established to communicate with the local community, with a particular focus on noise abatement strategies. ANACC focuses specifically on aircraft noise issues in the local community. The Committee also consults on matters including the production of Australian Noise Exposure Forecasts (ANEFs) for the Airport, and on matters relating to any future aircraft noise amelioration program for residences and public buildings around the Airport.

CONSULTATIVE COMMITTEES

Gold Coast Airport works collectively with government agencies and community representatives on a range of initiatives regarding airport operations.

In particular, Gold Coast Airport works to address and respond to aircraft noise concerns through the ANACC (Airport Noise Abatement Consultative Committee). The ANACC is a technical committee that focuses specifically on airport noise from airport operations. The ANACC comprises representatives endorsed by local community groups, aviation representatives and government representatives.

Gold Coast Airport also has a well-established Community Aviation Consultative Group (CACG), which acts as the primary community forum to discuss airport activities. The CACG is used to exchange information and provide feedback on aspects relating to airport operations and their impacts.

Local, state and federal government representatives and airline representatives are invited to both the CACG and ANACC to meet with the community to understand their concerns, and to provide information and an ongoing dialogue. The Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) is also notified of the community forums.
