    DETROIT METROPOLITAN WAYNE COUNTY AIRPORT FAR PART 150 NOISE COMPATIBILITY STUDY UPDATE CHAPTERINVENTORY A Inventory Introduction Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) is an integral component of the transportation infrastructure serving the Detroit Metropolitan area, southeast Michigan, and northwest Ohio. Because of its airfield and facility capabilities, Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport is also a vital part of the national system of airports. The Airport serves as not only the City of Detroit’s front door by providing visitors with an important first impression of the community, but also is the state's largest airport. The Airport provides transportation facilities that are an absolute necessity for some businesses, and a "required" convenience for others. Additionally, Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport provides recreational and leisure traveler’s convenient access to air transportation with convenient non-stop and connecting service to many popular destinations. This Federal Aviation Regulation (FAR) Part 150 Noise Compatibility Planning Study is an update of a 1992 Study that was adopted by Wayne County and approved by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in 1993. The Wayne County Airport Authority has implemented many of the recommendations contained in the previous FAR Part 150 Study. However, since completion of the previous study, there have been changes to the airfield, type of aircraft, and the number of aircraft operating at the airport. As such, many of these changes have likely resulted in changes to noise exposure and therefore the need for an update to the previous Study. The purpose of this airport facilities INVENTORY chapter of the Part 150 Study is to establish a baseline of information about existing airport facilities and operations, as well as local land use.
