Vancouver, WA – The Board of County Commissioners is seeking a Clark County resident from the Camas/Washougal area to serve on the Portland International Airport Citizen Noise Advisory Committee (PDXCNAC), filling an unexpired term through November 2012.

The advisory committee is charged with:
• Acting on behalf of local jurisdictions as the official forum to address community noise concerns
• Monitoring and providing input on the implementation of the current PDX Noise Compatibility Plan
• Reviewing aircraft noise issues and providing advice on issue resolution and follow-up
• Developing ideas and recommending proposals for future airport noise plans
• Participating in advisory committees considering long-range airport facilities and capital improvement planning
• Enhancing public understanding of aircraft noise management through the CNAC
• Periodically brief the Port of Portland Commissioners on the committee’s work

The committee generally meets 6-8 p.m. on the second Thursday of each month at the Port of Portland Administration building, 7200 N.E. Airport Way, Anchor Room, Portland, Ore. Once a year, CNAC meets in Vancouver and Gresham. Typically, no meeting is scheduled in December. Given the technical nature of noise, CNAC members are encouraged to attend all meetings.
