The two noise protection programs implemented to date for Munich Airport are based on the planning approval decision for Munich Airport dated July 8, 1979, as amended by the 47th amendment to the planning approval decision dated February 28, 1995, and on the amendment to the night time regulation dated March 23, 2001.
As part of these noise protection programs, Flughafen München GmbH has taken extensive noise protection measures for those affected in the airport region to ensure that, as a rule, no individual noise levels higher than 55 dB(A) occur inside rooms with closed windows. Around 4,300 buildings/apartments were equipped with noise protection, i.e., noise protection windows and ventilation systems, and compensation was paid for any impairment of outdoor living areas.
Flughafen München GmbH has therefore already invested around €62 million in noise protection measures in the past. The noise protection programs have now been completed. In addition, a noise protection area will be established for Munich Airport in the future in accordance with the German Civil Aviation Noise Protection Act (FluLärmG). This will result in further claims for noise protection measures.
