Suvarnabhumi » Transport panel will negotiate with residents affected by aircraft noise
Tuesday, September 4th, 2007The Transport Ministry will form a tripartite committee to negotiate with residents affected by noise pollution caused by aircraft taking off and landing at Suvarnabhumi airport. Deputy Transport Minister Sansern Wongcha-um said the committee will comprise residents, the Airports of Thailand and the Transport Ministry and a team of lawyers.
The panel will act as a go-between in negotiating with residents for solutions, he said.
The panel was seen as a move to appease residents who threatened to block entrances to the airport today in protest at the sluggish mitigation process.
He said he would take the proposal to a joint meeting of the ministry and the Airports of Thailand tomorrow.
The meeting will assess the operations of Suvarnabhumi airport which will mark its first anniversary on Sept 29, 2007.
Educational institutions or other agencies will be hired to find out exactly how many people have been afflicted by aircraft noise. A team of psychiatrists will also be sent to help residents.
Mr Sansern said the process of providing assistance to residents had been slow because residents suffering from the noise pollution had outnumbered officials assigned to negotiate with them.
There were currently only five Airports of Thailand officials engaged in holding talks with residents, he said, adding that the state had struck deals with only nine residents so far.
He also attributed the slow progress to the lack of clear information on noise levels around the airport and the precise number of residents suffering from noise pollution.
Mr Sansern said he had floated the idea of the three-party panel to residents and they agreed with the proposal.
He told the Airports of Thailand to take steps to buy strips of land at both ends of the airport for development for aviation-related business, since those areas are unfit for human settlement, he said.
