The Ventura County Department of Airports is pleased to share the advertisement for the final round of community meetings for the Part 150 Noise Compatibility studies for Oxnard Airport and Camarillo Airport. Click here to view the advertisement. You can expect to continue to see these advertisements in local publications in the coming weeks as well as on our website. These meetings will include a review of proposed future mitigation measures as well as a Q&A element for the community. Members of the public will also have access to the final chapters of the studies (chapters 5, 6, and 7).
CAMARILLO AIRPORT:
Monday, October 7th, 2024

Ventura County Office of Education
OXNARD AIRPORT:
Tuesday, October 8th, 2024
6 p.m.
Courtyard by Marriot (Esplanade Drive)
Spanish and/or Mixteco interpretation services will be provided for both meetings upon request.
The noise mitigations that will be discussed during both meetings are nearly two years in the making and are expected to have a positive impact on our collective work to improve noise exposure for neighbors of both airports.
Once these meetings are completed, the next step in the process will be a public hearing slated for the first quarter of 2025 in which the Department of Airports and its consultants will provide the public with an opportunity to comment on the final documents. There will not be a Q&A element during the public hearing, however all public comments will be noted and included in the final documents that will be submitted to the FAA.
As noted, the October meetings will serve as the final of four public meetings in which the Department of Airports has provided detailed updates to each study along with a Q&A portion to ensure clarification of all issues of concern. However, it is important to emphasize that the Department of Airports will continue to welcome feedback from the community as we work toward continued progress.
