The second MIME seminar/workshop will take place at NLR, Amsterdam on 11th March 2010 from 9am to 4pm. The aim of this event is to gain a consensus on the validity of assumptions and methods to be employed in these simulations. This includes:
- The CBA Plan and major assumptions
- Stakeholder Behaviour – their objectives, the options available to them, their freedom of action, financial parameters etc.
- Model options – Noise permit definition, Initial allocation scheme, trading scheme, rules of operation etc.
- Model airport environment – configuration, population densities, timetables, baseline noise etc.
- Noise Abatement Strategies – routing, scheduling, fleet composition etc.
- Current and future aircraft performance data
- Simulation sensitivity analysis

The MIME project consortium would be most grateful for your input into the project.

MIME – Market-based Impact Mitigation for the Environment – is an EU 6th RTD Framework-funded project. It has now entered its final year. The aim of this project is to investigate the feasibility of applying market-based methods to enable an increase in traffic at an airport while limiting the aircraft noise annoyance that nearby residents are subjected to.

The project has defined candidate indices for describing aircraft noise annoyance and has selected a choice of candidate trading options to be analysed. This analysis will be performed this year using simulation models of a generic airport to determine the overall cost-benefit of each option.

In order to enable us to have an idea of numbers for catering etc. please inform me as soon as possible if you intend to attend this seminar.
