1. INTRODUCTION

1.1

The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is a United Nations (UN)

specialized agency, established by States in 1944 to manage the administration and governance of the

Convention on International Civil Aviation (referred to as the Chicago Convention). ICAO works with

the Convention's 192 Member States and industry groups to reach consensus on international civil

aviation Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) and policies in support of a safe, efficient,

secure, economically sustainable and environmentally responsible civil aviation sector. Presently, there

are over 10,000 such Standards and provisions contained in ICAO Annexes to the Chicago Convention.

ICAO's ongoing mission is to support a global air transport network that meets or surpasses the social and

economic development and broader connectivity needs of global businesses and passengers. While

acknowledging the clear need to anticipate and manage the projected doubling of global air transport

capacity by 2030 without unnecessary adverse impacts on system safety, efficiency, convenience or

environmental performance, ICAO has established five comprehensive Strategic Objectives, namely:

Safety, Air Navigation Capacity and Efficiency, Security and Facilitation, Economic Development of Air

Transport, and Environmental Protection.

1.2

Improving the environmental performance of aviation is a challenge ICAO takes very

seriously. In fulfilling its responsibilities, ICAO has three major environmental goals, which are to limit

or reduce: 1) the number of people affected by significant aircraft noise, 2) the impact of aviation

emissions on local air quality, and 3) the impact of aviation greenhouse gas emissions on the global

climate. To limit or reduce the impact of aviation emissions on local air quality, ICAO takes actions on

revising current and adopting new emission standards for international aviation. Following the

development of a visibility based non-volatile Particulate Matter (nvPM) Standard, aircraft engine landing

and take-off (LTO) nvPM mass and number emissions Standard is being adopted. The non-volatile

particulate matter is defined as emitted particles that do not volatilize when heated to a temperature of

350° C. These particles are also known as "ultrafine soot" or "black carbon" particles. The new

Standards regulate the mass and the number of such particles emitted during the landing and take-off

cycle.

1.3

The ICAO Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection (CAEP) is a technical

committee of the ICAO Council established in 1983. CAEP assists the Council in formulating new

policies and adopting new SARPs related to aircraft noise and emissions, and more generally to aviation

environmental impacts. CAEP undertakes specific studies, as requested by the Council. Its scope of

activities encompasses noise, air quality and the Basket of Measures considered for reducing international

aviation CO2 emissions. CAEP is structured into Working Groups in order to progress tasks under the

various environmental areas (noise, emissions, modelling, etc.).

1.4

Since 2013, CAEP has been developing Engine nvPM mass and number Emissions

Certification Standards, following the plan approved by the ICAO Council and the request from the 38th Session of the Assembly (ResolutionA38-17 3 ). These new Standards will be added to Chapter 4

(Volume II) to Annex 16 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, where Annex 16, Volume I

covers aircraft noise and Volume III addresses aircraft CO2 emissions.

1.5

The nvPM mass and number Standards have been developed considering the four core

CAEP tenets, which are technical feasibility, environmental effectiveness, economic reasonableness, and

the consideration of interdependencies (e.g. with noise and local air quality emissions). This has involved two phases of work, which have focussed on the development of a certification requirement and options for a regulatory limit line. Figure 1.1 shows a representative framework of an ICAO Environmental Standard.

Figure 1.1: The basic framework of an ICAO Environmental Standard

1.6

Phase 1 involved tasks associated with the forming of a certification requirement for the

nvPM mass and number Standards, including the development of nvPM emissions evaluation metric

systems (i.e. metric/correlating parameter/test points), certification procedures, measurement

methodologies, applicability to new engine types, and initial inputs to the cost effectiveness assessment.

Phase 2 included the following. (1) Development of the regulatory limit stringency options for in-

production and new engine types; (2) considering various combinations of mass and number limits;

(3) technology responses from the manufacturers when engines do not meet the nvPM mass and number

stringency option combinations (SO); and, (4) the cost effectiveness analyses. The subsequent material is

a summary of the nvPM mass and number Standard development work that was conducted through a

period of six years (i.e., two CAEP work cycles).

2. CAVEATS, LIMITATIONS AND CONTEXT

2.1

Context: The framework for this analysis does not necessarily represent what would

occur in the real world. Specifically, (a) the real world does not ensure that all products of a similar

capacity get used equally regardless of price or performance; and (b) the real world does not require in

production aircraft or engines to go out of production if they do not perform to a level required of newly

certificated types. This analysis uses aircraft and engines that are assumed to be in production at the

implementation date to assess the technical feasibility, benefits and costs of the proposed stringency

option combinations. When a product no longer responds, results are influenced by the fleet evolution

analysis assumptions; and coincidently the remaining fleet tends to be more fuel-efficient.

2.2

Technological Feasibility: For the purposes of the nvPM Standard setting process, CAEP

relied upon representative, certificated engines to measure nvPM performance as a basis for technological

feasibility and economic reasonableness. In the larger context of technology for improved engine,

emissions environmental performance to be used as part of the basis for ICAO certification Standard

setting, technological feasibility refers to any technology demonstrated to be safe and airworthy proven to

Technical Readiness Level (TRL) 8 and available for application over a sufficient range of newly

certificated aircraft.

2.3

Limitations: The information used in the analysis included a mixture of public and non-

public data that is subject to change. The data was informed by assumptions unique to this analysis,

which limits the applicability of the data to only this work.

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-5

2.4

The data and information provided in this document were provided to support the

selection of nvPM mass and number Standards by ICAO CAEP in the context of the current ICAO

Standard setting process. The in-production fleet and known products scheduled for entry into the fleet by

2023 were used for growth and replacement throughout the full analysis period (i.e., 2012-2042). The

analysis did not speculate on potential future technology developments.

2.5

Fleet evolution is an element of CAEP modelling that defines the future fleet and its'

deployment on routes and schedules, under different policy options and assumptions regarding the future

state of the air transport system. Many of the input assumptions for this modelling are forward-looking

and cannot be proven in advance. Thus, there is no certainty that any one baseline predicts what will

actually happen in the future.

2.6

Assumptions of engine technology responses to regulatory levels were based on input

from both manufacturers and other expert sources. These responses were meant for nvPM cost

effectiveness modelling purposes, and do not imply a commitment from manufacturers to develop actual

individual products.

2.7

Consequently, the environmental benefits and the costs are comparable relatively

between analysis cases but cannot be represented as absolute benefits and costs. Hence, the data and

information are not suitable for application to any other purpose of any kind, and any attempt at such

application would be in error.

2.8

Recognizing the potential trade-offs between nvPM emissions and fuel efficiency and

NOx, a range of trade-offs were modelled with the analysis submitted to CAEP. It should be noted

however, regarding the proposed nvPM mass and number Standards for new engine type certificates,

engines obtaining new type certificates are required to pass standards for all regulated pollutants. The

anti-backsliding nvPM mass stringency proposed for in-production (INP) engines was not assessed.

2.9

Business Jets: Fleet evolution modelling for business jets (BJ) uses all types within a

competition bin (CBin) equally without considering capacity, capital or operating costs, with the goal that

CBins contain equivalent products in terms of costs and capabilities. However, after the analysis was run

it was discovered that two BJ CBins had types with noticeably different capital costs. When some BJ

types no longer respond, they were replaced by much less expensive types. This BJ CBin modelling is

sufficiently influential that the combined market results are presented with and without the BJ market.

2.10

Two Paths: The analysis for the potential CAEP/11 nvPM mass and number Standards

included a portion of the growth and replacement fleet modelled in two ways. Small and medium

wide-bodied passenger aircraft were originally defined from the fleet forecast as CBin-9 (211 to 300

seats) and CBin-10 (301 to 400 seats). That fleet forecast-based approach was modelled as "Path-B" with

CBin-9 and CBin-10 separated. An alternative "Path-A" approach modelled CBin-9/10 together. These

different paths along with the equal product market share assumption resulted in a noticeable difference in

the distribution of baseline operations. The original fleet forecast (Path-B) has an 82% to 18% distribution

for the small and medium WB-PAX types; but 47% to 53% in the alternative (Path-A) modelling. The

two paths have no noticeable consequence for the analysis until SO10 (mass5 #1) when some WB-PAX

types no longer respond. Under Path-A, some small WB-PAX baseline operations are replaced by

medium WB-PAX types at SO10 resulting in a noticeable capital cost increase. Results for the analysis

are presented for all SO using the original fleet forecast (Path-B), as well as the alternative (Path-A)

approach for SO10-12a.

3. ANNEX 16, VOLUME II AND THE ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNICAL MANUAL, VOLUME II

3.1

Overview of the nvPM Mass and Number Emissions Evaluation Metric

3.1.1

The provisions contained in the draft update to Part 3 Chapter 4 of Annex 16, Vol. II

represent the SARPs for the certification of engine nvPM mass and number emissions for the standard

ICAO LTO cycle: 1. The LTO nvPM mass emissions from the measured engines normalized by the given

engine's rated thrust and plotted against the rated thrust; 2. The LTO nvPM number emissions from the

measured engines normalized by the given engine's rated thrust and plotted against the rated thrust as

follows:

3.1.1.1

nvPM Mass Metric Value:

3.1.1.2

nvPM number Metric Value:

Where: tm time in mode [seconds s], Wf is the fuel flow [kg/s] and EInvpm_mass is the nvPM mass emissions index [mg/kg of fuel], EInvpm_num is nvPM number emissions index [particles/kg of fuel] and F is the rated thrust [kN].

3.2

The Environmental Technical Manual (ETM), Volume II

3.3

An update to Part 3, Chapter 4 of the Environmental Technical Manual, Volume II

(ETM, Vol. II) has also been developed to promote implementation uniformity of the technical

procedures of Annex 16, Volume II by providing the following: (1) Guidance to certificating authorities,

applicants and other interested parties regarding the intended meaning and stringency of the Standards in

the current edition of the Annex; (2) Guidance on specific methods that are deemed acceptable in

demonstrating compliance with those Standards and (3) equivalent procedures resulting in effectively the

same nvPM emissions evaluation metric that may be used in lieu of the procedures specified in those

Standards.

4. STRINGENCY OPTIONS

4.1

An important part of the Standard-setting process was the definition of the nvPM mass

and number stringency options, which could be chosen to represent the eventual limit lines for the nvPM

mass and number standards. Each stringency option for nvPM mass and number aimed to maintain the

intended behaviour of the nvPM emissions metric; i.e., to equitably reward advances in engine

technologies that contribute to reductions in engine nvPM emissions, and to differentiate between engines

of different size and with different generations of technologies.

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-7

4.2

The development of the nvPM mass and number stringency options was based on the

nvPM metric value database (nvPMVdb). The nvPMVdb contained engine test data provided directly

from manufacturers and certification authorities on in-production engine types. Most of the measurements

were targeted to comply with the CAEP/10 nvPM Standard (applicable from 1 January 2020), which

contains the nvPM measurement system requirements, procedure and evaluation of LTO points and as

such, the confidential nvPMVdb contained "certification-like" data. Overall, data from 23 engine types

was used to develop the metric values and stringency options.

4.3

To correct nvPM emissions to standard day conditions, two proposed ambient conditions

correction methodologies for nvPM mass and one for nvPM number were evaluated. Based on the results

of the evaluation, it was concluded that additional tests may be needed and further analysis will be

pursued in order to be able to propose satisfactory ambient corrections for nvPM mass and number

emission indices (EIs), robust enough for inclusion into ICAO Annex 16, Volume II. For stringency

options development, the nvPM emission EIs were not corrected for ambient conditions effects. The

uncertainty on metric values for not correcting for ambient conditions have been taken into account, with

an order of ± 10% for nvPM mass and ± 30% for nvPM number.

4.4

Application of fuel corrections was recommended and used the following functions to

correct measured nvPM mass and number EIs to a fuel hydrogen content reference of 13.8% mass, hence

normalising the nvPM emission values to the reference fuel for the stringency options development:

 _ =  0.95 00 - 1.12 (13.8 - )

_

=



0.99

 00

-

1.05

(13.8

-

)

where _ is the fuel correction factor for the nvPM mass emission index, _ fuel correction
factor for the nvPM number emission index,  the exponential function,  the thrust in mode [kN], 00 the rated thrust [kN] and  the fuel hydrogen content measured in %mass.

4.5

In contrast to gaseous emissions not being lost in a leak-tight system, any particle

measurement system will have losses for particles in the sampling system resulting in nvPM values at

instrument level that will always be lower than the values at engine exit plane. The dominant particle loss

mechanisms are particle size dependent and are higher for nvPM number than for nvPM mass. Relatively

bigger particles penetrate better compared to smaller particles; however, larger particles contribute more

to nvPM mass. For example, an engine emitting generally larger particles than a competitor engine would

report higher nvPM number levels at the instrument, although it may have similar nvPM number levels at

the engine exit plane.

4.6

Based on the state of science informed by data analysis, it was concluded that the metric

values could not be corrected for system losses with confidence while noting that not correcting for

system losses may lead to some bias between engine metric values especially for number emissions,

despite the use of standardised measurement systems. This potential bias was not taken into consideration

in the stringency options development for the following additional reasons. (1) The certified metric value

of an engine depends on its own performance, not on the relative performance of another engine; and (2)

the unintended consequence of not addressing the potential bias could be an incentive to design engines to

emit even smaller particles. However, the proposed CAEP/11 Standard makes use of two metric systems,

for nvPM mass and nvPM number, which work together. If particle sizes are reduced and e.g. the particle

3C-8

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

number does increase, the particle mass is reduced but the particle number will be higher. The measurement system is less responsive to the smallest particles but it does not cut them off and is still measuring them. The metric values for nvPM mass and number in the nvPMVdb show that in general, engines with a lower number emit less mass.

4.7

nvPM Mass Stringency Options

4.7.1

A specific nvPM mass regulatory limit for in-production (INP) engines with a proposed

applicability date of 1 January 2023 was derived based on the measured data. The INP regulatory limit is

designed to be an anti-backsliding Standard. Given the fact that a number of small engine technologies

had relatively higher metric values, the INP regulatory limit has a decreasing metric value as thrust

increases until the 200 kN kink point. For engines with rated thrusts greater than 200 kN, the data

indicates no trend in metric values and therefore a constant metric value is chosen to provide the INP

regulatory limit.

4.7.2

The five New Type (NT) nvPM mass stringency options are chosen with a 150 kN kink

point. The 150 kN is chosen because: a) it is the best mathematical fit to the clusters of data from different

technologies; and b) this allows for reduction in severity of stringency for engines of rated thrust below

89 kN without being very lenient. Above a rated thrust of 150 kN, the five stringency options have been

prescribed as per cent reductions from NT-1 (0%, 16%, 44%, 72% and 82%) for which the metric value is

set at 250 mg/kN. Below a rated thrust of 150 kN, these five options provide increasing margin to smaller

engines due to associated technical challenges (200 per cent alleviation for NT-1 through NT-4 and 30 per

cent for NT-5). Table 4.1 are the equations for the nvPM mass stringency lines are shown in Figure 4.1.

4.8

nvPM Number Stringency Options

4.8.1

One nvPM number stringency level for in-production engines with a proposed

applicability date of 1 January 2023 was derived based on the cluster of data points across the thrust

range. This necessitates a kink point at 200 kN. Given the trend of nvPM number metric values across the

thrust range, use of one kink point is justified to represent this anti-backsliding stringency line.

4.8.2

The NT nvPM number stringency options are derived to be consistent with the mass

stringency levels with a 150 kN kink point. The number of stringency options is limited to three, based on

the analysis that reduction in nvPM mass does not translate to similar reductions in nvPM number metric

values. Above a rated thrust of 150 kN, three stringency levels have been prescribed as per cent

reductions from NT-1 (0%, 33% and 66%) for which the metric value is set at 3×1015 #/kN. The strictest

stringency level for nvPM number has more margin to the best performing engines than for nvPM mass.

Below a rated thrust of 150 kN, these three levels provide increasing margin to smaller engines due to

associated technical challenges (200 percent alleviation for NT-1 through NT-3). The nvPM number

stringency levels are shown in Figure 4.2. The equations for these lines are shown in Table 4.2.

nvPM Mass and Number Stringency Option Combinations (SO)

4.9.1

For the NT engines cost effectiveness analysis, the five nvPM mass and three nvPM

number stringencies were combined to form the twelve stringency option combinations (SO) shown in

Table 4.3. The colour differentiation is to indicate that the nvPM mass levels drive the responses for SO2,

SO4, SO5 and SO7 to SO12, while the nvPM number levels drive the responses for SO1, SO3 and SO6.

5. COST EFFECTIVENESS ANALYSIS APPROACH

5.1

In order to address the CAEP tenets of environmental effectiveness and economic

reasonableness, CAEP has conducted a full cost effectiveness analysis. This involved the definition of an

analysis framework and analytical tools, including fleet evolution modelling, environmental modelling,

recurring costs, non-recurring costs, and costs per nvPM mass and number emissions avoided. The

analysis was conducted with the aim of providing a reasonable assessment of the economic costs and

environmental benefits for a potential nvPM mass and number emissions Standard in comparison with a

"No ICAO action" baseline. The models that contributed to the analysis are listed in Table 5.1 and a

high-level overview of the modelling process is provided in Figure 5.1.

5.2

Defining the Global Fleet

5.2.1

The analysis process requires defining aeroplane and engine types that enter into the

global fleet during the forecast years up to 2042, for both the baseline and each SO. This information is

collated into the Growth and Replacement database (GRdb). This database documents all of the

information required by the modelling community regarding each aeroplane and engine type in the

analysis, both in their base configuration and as defined for each SO. The GRdb also includes references

to other data sources such as the ICAO Aircraft Engine Emissions Databank and the ICAO noise

certification database (NoisedB).

5.2.2

The GRdb was defined with aeroplane and engine types that are both in-production (INP)

and scheduled for entry into the fleet before 2023. For products that remain to be certified, the

information required for modelling (project data) were provided by manufacturers. (The analysis did not

speculate on potential future technology developments.) The baseline analysis scenario included some

INP types going out of production and replaced by types entering the fleet prior to the

2023-implementation year. The transition between these paired types was immediate; i.e., there was no

over-lapping "ramp up/ramp down" of production between transition pairs for this analysis. Because the

transitioning process ended before the 2023 stringency applicability year, it had no effect on the results.

5.2.3

Another element defined in the GRdb are competition bins (CBins), which align to the

fleet forecast seat classes. There can be a one-to-one relationship between the fleet forecast seat classes

and CBins (as was the case for business jets); however, CBins have also been used to separate regional jets and turboprops4 (which are not separated in the fleet forecast). While CBins are required for the

modelling process, results are primarily reported with all markets combined or at a market-specific level.

Table 5.2 shows the market shares of all baseline aviation markets combined versus only those subject to

the proposed CAEP/11 nvPM mass and number Standards.

Two Paths

5.3.1

The analysis for the potential CAEP/11 nvPM mass and number Standards included a

portion of the GRdb fleet modelled in two ways. Small and medium wide-bodied passenger aircraft were

originally defined from the fleet forecast as CBin-9 (211 to 300 seats) and CBin-10 (301 to 400 seats).

That fleet forecast-based approach was modelled as "Path-B" with CBin-9 and CBin-10 separated. An

alternative "Path-A" approach modelled CBin-9/10 together. These different paths along with the equal

product market share fleet evolution modelling assumption resulted in operations being distributed

differently between the small and medium WB-PAX aircraft, as shown in Table 5.3.

Table 5.3: Operations distribution between CBin-9 and CBin-10 for Path-A and Path-B.

82% 18%

Path-B SO10
CBin-9 vs CBin-10 Separated
82% 18%

5.3.2

The "all-market" level results, presented later in the document, indicate whether the small

and medium WB-PAX aircraft component is from Path-A or Path-B by the letter after the SO number;

e.g., SO10a and SO10b. In most figures, all Path-B SO results are shown along with the Path-A

SO10-12a on the right since SO10 through SO12 are where the two paths have the most notable

differences in results, and because Path-B represents the original fleet forecast.

5.4

Fleet Evolution Modelling

5.4.1

Fleet evolution models use forecasted fleet and traffic demand as targets to project a

scenario-compliant future fleet-specific schedule of operations and generate required inputs for the

environmental models. The fleet evolution modelling process requires the following. (1) Base-year data,

including a fleet-specific schedule of operations and the age profile for the base-year fleet. (2) The GRdb

defined for the baseline (no stringency) and for each SO, and including seat/capacity assumptions for each

aircraft/engine. (3) Fleet and traffic forecast targets along with compatible (4) aircraft retirement curves.

5.4.2

Depending on the "fleet choice" assumption used for particular analysis, costs can also be

required for fleet evolution modelling. However, the fleet choice assumption for the CAEP/11 nvPM

mass and number Standard analysis was "Equal Product Market Share" in which each available (scenario

compliant) aircraft/engine within a competition bin is used equally (without considering operating costs).

3C-14

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

5.4.3

The fleet-specific schedule of operations varies from the baseline when a GRdb entry

does not respond to an SO, and is assumed to go out of production at the implementation date. The

technology response nvPM Improvement (NI) levels do not impact fleet selection. Therefore, the fleet

evolution modellers only needed to model four scenarios to represent the twelve SO defined for the

cost-effectiveness analysis. This point is highlighted in Table 5.4; namely, a run where all engine families

remain in the analysis; a run where one drops out of the analysis; a run where two drop out of the

analysis; and a run where eleven drop out of the analysis.

5.4.4

When a growth and replacement fleet option (GRdb type) does not respond to an SO, the

consequence varies by how much the remaining CBin growth and replacement options differ from the

GRdb type(s) that do not respond. Apart from emissions improvements, the change from baseline

stringency-results become more pronounced the more a stringency scenario fleet otherwise differs from

the baseline fleet. Fuel burn and cost elements for individual GRdb types are part of the change; however,

capacity differences magnify the change from the baseline because the levels of operations and deliveries

change, which results in more (positive or negative) fuel burn, capital and direct operating cost changes.

5.5

nvPM Mass and Number Emissions Modelling

5.5.1

As much as possible, the 2012 base year and GRdb fleets were mapped to measured

emission indices (EIs) from the nvPM metric value database (nvPMVdb) and provided directly from

manufacturers. However, there were no measured nvPM emissions available for eleven of the thirty-three

GRdb engine families represented in the analysis; so, the nvPM mass and number metric values for those

engines had to be estimated. Those estimations were based on certified ICAO Smoke Numbers and

correlation to nvPM derived-from-measurement comparisons between Smoke Numbers and nvPM.

5.5.2

A large set of nvPM mass concentration to Smoke Number pairs was available as more

engines were tested and a correlation database (Cdb) was updated using these measurements. With this

larger set of data pairs, the Cdb correlation of nvPM mass concentration to SN could be more reliably

determined. An improved correlation and the corresponding equations have been derived, based on this

more extensive data set. The updated correlation can be expressed as:

648.4 (0.0766 )    [µg/m3] = 1 + -1.098(-3.064)

5.5.3

This correlation was recommended for use in estimating nvPM mass concentrations when

measured nvPM mass data is not available and SN data is available. In particular, this correlation was

used to calculate the nvPM mass Emission Index (EI) in conjunction with the Fuel to Air Ratio (FAR)

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-15

estimation procedure previously developed for the published, so called FOA3 method used before, to estimate PM LTO mass emissions from aircraft engines.
Figure 5.2: Updated smoke number to mass concentration correlation

5.5.4

The new Smoke Number to nvPM mass correlation was named SCOPE11 and provides

estimations of nvPM mass EIs corresponding to measured values at instrument level of an nvPM standard

measurement system required for aircraft engine nvPM emission certification. An additional step was the

estimation of nvPM number EIs, which is based on the nvPM mass EIs estimated from smoke number

with SCOPE11 as provided by the equation below:

Where , is the nvPM number EI of LTO mode i (idle, approach, climb-out, take-off). , is the nvPM mass EI of LTO mode i.  is the geometric mean diameter of the particles in mode i (recommended values used in modelling provided in paragraphs below).  is the assumed particle effective density (proposed value for all modes 1 g/cm3). i is the dimensionless geometric standard deviation of an assumed one-mode lognormal distribution (proposed value for all modes 1.8).5

5.5.5

Two approaches were used in modelling nvPM number emissions from the mass EIs

estimated from Smoke Number.

5.5.5.1

Approach 1: Use of a mode-specific set of GMDs with fixed values for the four LTO

modes (GMD = 20 nm at idle and approach, 38 nm at climb-out and 41 nm at take-off thrust conditions).

5.5.5.2

Approach 2: Use a mass concentration-GMD relationship, which was given with the

following formula:

 = 12.5  0.15

5 Note that unit conversion factors may be needed depending on the units used in the formula

3C-16

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

Where C is the nvPM mass concentration in µg/m3 in the engine core, estimated using the SCOPE11 correlation and the GMD is the geometric mean diameter in nm.

5.5.6

The modellers estimated the nvPM number emissions using both approaches. While

nvPM number metric values and emissions estimated using the two approaches were different, this did

not adversely affect the technology response. This is because the engines for which the nvPM emissions

had to be estimated using Smoke Number were driven by the mass components of the combined

stringency options.

5.6

Environmental Modelling

5.6.1

Landing and Take-Off cycle (LTO) Modelling ­ Time in mode-based LTO modelling

was used with the ICAO/CAEP Modelling and Database Group (MDG) LTO Consensus Model for this

analysis.

5.6.2

Project Data ­ The information required for modelling products that remain to be

certified were provided by manufacturers. Modellers applied adjustments to fuel burn and emissions for

all project types entering the fleet in the future years. A separate adjustment was also applied to the NOx

results when specified. These results were applied as a scalar multiplier to each operation in the LTO

dataset.

5.6.3

Trajectory Assumptions ­ Traditionally, CAEP full-flight greenhouse gas (GHG)

emissions and fuel burn modelling has involved the use of great circle trajectory for the underlying

origin-destination (OD) pairs as defined in the COD. For this analysis, however, all possible

aircraft/engine types were modelled flying 18 representative tracks for the maximum possible range. In

addition, each aircraft/engine type was modelled flying the type-specific minimum and maximum OD

pair from the 2012 Common Operations Database (COD). Operations from each analysis year were then

mapped to one of these tracks and all the parameters were interpolated (except for the minimum and

maximum distance in which case the values were directly used) based on the actual and representative

OD distances. In addition, AEDT modellers also processed base year 2012 using the traditional modelling

method and compared the results with the representative tracks approach. Distance and fuel burn were

within 0.5% and all other parameters were within 1% between the two approaches.

5.6.4

Other Environmental Modelling ­ Trade-off response modelling is the assessment of

potential environmental disbenefits that may occur when technology improvements are focused on a

single pollutant. While a range from zero to "full" noise and emissions trade-offs were modelled with the

analysis submitted to CAEP, engines obtaining new type certificates are required to pass standards for all

regulated pollutants; so, that data is not relevant for this document.

5.7

Cost Modelling

5.7.1

Recurring ­ Direct operating costs (DOC) include fuel costs, capital costs (depreciation

and finance) and other-DOCs (crew, maintenance, landing and route costs).

5.7.2

Non-Recurring ­ Because there are no limiting nvPM mass and number standards, there

is no historic data on fleet valuation impacts on owner/operators or on how manufacturers will determine

the technology response given changes in market demand associated with potential regulatory levels.

Consistent with standard principles of economic analysis, all relevant recurring and non-recurring cost

(NRC) items should be accounted for in the cost analysis for a potential Standard. Among these cost

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-17

items, non-recurring (N-R) aircraft owner/operator (AO/O) costs may include a loss in fleet value that could be incurred by aircraft owners and operators for fleet assets that would not meet the stringency options; referred to as asset value loss (AVL). This is based on the premise that the introduction of a new Standard would reduce the market value of existing fleets that do not meet the Standard, even if the Standard does not apply to the in-service aircraft. However, it should be noted that CAEP has not definitively stated whether AVL costs should be included and therefore the results of the analysis were considered with and without AVL.

5.7.3

NRC was used to represent technology response (TR) costs. It is understood, however,

that while NRC capture the fixed cost associated with developing TR to pass a standard level, they do not

reflect additional production cost of implementing these responses, i.e., material, labour and other

recurring costs. The analysis assumes that the cost of manufacturing remains unchanged before and after

TR, whereas the additional technology contained in a TR may cost more to manufacture.

5.7.4

Further details on the NRC assumptions are provided in Section 6.

6. TECHNOLOGY RESPONSE ASSUMPTIONS

6.1

Non-Recurring Manufacturer Technology Response Cost (NRC)

6.1.1

The need for considering the inclusion of manufacturer non-recurring cost (NRC) into the

analysis arises from the stringency option combinations where one or more engine-family does not meet a

stringency and receives a technology response (TR) to remain in the market. NRC captures the fixed costs

associated with developing the TR applied to engine-families so that they pass the standard, but not any

additional production costs associated with implementing TR. Thus, NRC does not include material,

labour or other recurring costs. WG3 developed the technology responses and defined the non-recurring

manufacturer costs. The agreed TR framework, as applied to the GRdb engine-families, is summarized in

Table 6.1. The agreed TR framework included single, low and high NRC values. Table 6.2 shows the

single NRC values applied for the respective NI levels by SO in the second through fourth columns; the

last three columns show the total NRC by SO for the single, low and high NRC values respectively.

6.2

Non-recurring aircraft owner/operator Asset Value Loss (AVL)

6.2.1

Consistent with prior FESG practice and standard principles of economic analysis, all

relevant recurring and non-recurring cost items should be accounted for in the cost analysis of the

stringency option combinations. Among these, non-recurring (N-R) owner/operator (O/O) costs may

include a loss in fleet value that could be incurred by owners and operators for fleet assets that would not

meet a new standard (represented in the analysis by the stringency option combinations). This Asset

Value Loss (AVL) is based on the following premises. (1) The introduction of a new Standard would

reduce the market value of existing fleets that do not meet the Standard, even if the standard does not

apply to the in-service fleet. (2) The introduction of a new Standard would cause a loss of fleet

commonality between pre-Standard assets and new compliant-fleet assets.

6.2.2

The method used in this analysis uses much of the methodology developed for the CO2

main analysis (CO2ma) that informed the CAEP/10 Standard.6 As with the CO2ma, fleet assets subject to

AVL are all those in the growth and replacement database that do not pass the nvPM stringency option

combinations and enter the fleet between the announcement and implementation dates. For example, if

the Standard is announced in 2019 and implemented in 2025, AVL would be assessed for aircraft that

entered the fleet in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024.

6.2.2.1

How to recognize AVL: It is acknowledged that accounting practices allow for asset

value losses and that they are recorded as impairment charges. When there is a change in the operating

environment, such as the implementation of a new regulation, negative impacts on an asset's value are

recorded in financial statements as an impairment loss.

6.2.2.2

When to recognize AVL: For the purposes of the modelling, an impairment charge is

being used as a proxy for the actual realized market value loss, which would be recognized when an

aircraft being assessed an AVL is sold. The idea is to consider the loss an operator would incur by selling

an aircraft before the end of its economic life at a lower cost than initially estimated when the aircraft was

purchased. For this purpose, it is assumed that asset values as projected through depreciation schedules

are sensible proxies for resale prices.

6 CAEP/10-IP/06 Appendix E, and to FESG-MDG in CAEP/11-FESG-MDG/6-WP/15, January 2018

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-19

6.2.2.3

It is also assumed that the impairment charge calculated at the implementation date will

be equal to the loss in value when aircraft are sold when they near the end of the first third of their

25-year economic useful lives, that is, 8 years after their entry into service. This is due to the fact that,

under the assumption of parallel depreciation curves, the impairment charge calculated at the Standard

implementation date will be the same as the loss in market value observed when an aircraft is sold.

6.2.2.4

Estimating the AVL connected to the nvPM stringency analysis: Similar to the CAEP/8

NOx Standard analysis (NOx/8), the loss of asset value is tied to reduction in value to the engines that do

not pass the Standard, whereas engines delivered from the Standard effective date will have technologies

that allow them to pass the Standard. The magnitude of the value of the AVL or impairment charge for

the current analysis was developed from the NOx/8 work.

6.2.2.5

One method for calculating lost value in engine fleets delivered before the stringency

effective date that would not pass the Standard is to estimate the "upgrade" retrofit cost required to allow

those same engines to pass the new Standard through engine improvements. For the NOx/8, the engine

manufacturer experts had scaled the costs of existing emissions kits to develop cost estimates for

hypothetical engine modification packages.

6.2.2.6

Table 6.3 shows the AVL values used for NOx/8 along with the values to use for the

nvPM stringency analysis. The values for CAEP/8 were in 2009 US Dollars. The cost analysis for nvPM

is in 2012 US Dollars. The agreed approach is to use the CAEP/8 values by Modification Status (MS)

level and escalate them to 2012 US Dollars. That requires a 1.07 escalation factor.

6.2.3

Table 6.4 presents the escalated values to use for the CAEP/11 nvPM stringency analysis.

For CAEP/11, there are significantly more "no technical" responses at the higher stringency option

combinations which wasn't the case for the CAEP/8 NOX Standard analysis. Therefore, an additional

impairment charge value is needed for the "no responses" in the CAEP/11 analysis. It has been agreed to

use the highest technical response, NI3, value as a proxy. However, it should be acknowledged that with

a "no response", the aircraft goes out of production and the loss of asset value may be underestimated.

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

6.3

Spare Engine Costs

6.3.1

Spare engines are required by operators to cover scheduled maintenance visits and

unscheduled engine removals. By exchanging a ready-to-fly spare engine for an on-wing engine that

requires repair, operators can keep their aircraft flying with minimum lost time on the ground while the

removed engine is sent to a maintenance provider for servicing.

6.3.2

The introduction of a new Standard would cause a loss of fleet commonality between

pre-Standard assets and new compliant-fleet assets. This would incur additional owner/ operator costs to

maintain spare engines for the portion of the fleet acquired before the Standard effectiveness date and a

separate set of spare engines for the subsequently acquired fleet.

6.3.3

A review and survey were conducted regarding the spare engine assumptions used for the

CAEP/6 and CAEP/8 NOx stringency analyses because those were based on 15-year old data that did not

consider the business jet market. In addition, there were concerns that assets may be managed differently with the rise of engine leasing.7

6.3.4

IATA 2018 inputs were assessed against the CAEP/6 and CAEP/8 assumptions with the

conclusion that the requirement for spare engines has trended lower for the commercial passenger and

freighter markets than previously calculated.8

6.3.5

The business jet segment's investment in spare engines is somewhat similar to the

commercial segment, however the business jet operators rely ever more greatly on the engine

manufacturers and maintenance repair organizations (MROs) to invest in a pool of engines and make

them available to the operator on a rental basis to support scheduled and unscheduled maintenance and

inspections. With input from two IBAC member companies, the conclusion was to use the agreed upon

commercial fleet spare engine curve to also represent the business jet market. From a global perspective, a

similar relationship of spare engines required, measured in terms of percent of in-service fleet, should

hold for business jet and commercial operators. The engine manufacturers and MRO providers act

effectively in bringing efficiencies to the market by bringing small fleets together to act like a large fleet

in terms of spare asset management.

6.3.6

An investigation was made into the relationship between aircraft and engine prices; and

the linear regression that is a function of airplane price was used to estimate spare engine prices for the

families that require a NI3 technical response to meet certain stringency option combinations. Average

engine price was calculated for the engines grouped by aircraft retirement code and the results are

presented in Table 6.5.

Commonality Factor ­ The CAEP/8 NOx stringency analysis assumed that the

requirements for extra spare engines would apply to 50% of the engines receiving a modification status

level 3 (MS3) technology response. It was assumed that the other 50% of engines (receiving a MS3

technology response) could be mixed with the engines that they replaced and so did not require additional

spare engines to be acquired. Lacking information to contradict the CAEP/8 assumption, the 50%

commonality factor for engines receiving a NI3 response (equivalent to the CAEP/8 MS3 response) for

the present analysis.

6.4

Lost Revenue Assessment

6.4.1

The cost impact for lost revenue is directly linked to engines receiving a NI3 tech

response, where there is a 0% to 0.5% fuel burn penalty trade-off from technology to improve nvPM mass

and number. The population of flights (operations) for which this cost impact is assessed is limited to

those flights that are operated at long-range distances where the aircraft is operated at its maximum

take-off mass (MTOM). For previous CAEP analyses, the percentage of an aircraft's total operations has

been on the order of 0% to 2% for narrow body aircraft and 5% for wide body aircraft.

6.4.2

For the current CAEP/11 nvPM stringency analysis, forecast operations have been

allocated into separate Competition Bins (CBins) that are organized by aircraft operating up to their

MTOW and where the distance bands being operated on exceed the aircrafts' MTOW at full passengers; thus, the operations for these aircraft are at lower payloads to meet the long-range requirements.9 It is this

last set of CBins with long-range missions that would be impacted by an incremental fuel penalty from

the NI3 tech response. An amount of payload has to be "off-loaded" so that additional fuel can be loaded

to cover the incremental fuel penalty and still operate at a take-off mass that doesn't exceed the MTOM of

the aircraft. Cargo is restricted first before blocking off seats to restrict revenue passengers. The reduction

in payload to offset the incremental NI3 fuel penalty is approximated by a reduction in revenue belly

cargo at a distance where aircraft is operated at MTOM.

6.4.3

To assess the cost impact for lost revenue the first step is to identify the aircraft models

that would be impacted. For the CAEP/11 nvPM stringency analysis, the impacted aircraft are models

belonging to the wide body segment that at a given level of stringency receive a NI3 tech response. The

aircraft impacted for the nvPM stringency analysis are 787, A330neo, A350 and A380.

9 Reduced capacity wide-bodied aircraft were used for operations above 999nmi in CBin-33 (85 seats); above 2499nmi in CBin-34 (100 seats) and CBin-35 (125 seats); above 3499nmi in CBin-36 (150 seats), CBin-37 (175 seats) and CBin-38 (210 seats); and above 6499nmi in CBin-39 (300 seats).

3C-22

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

6.4.4

To simplify the analysis and to protect proprietary data, a single blended value was

computed for the payload "off-loaded" at the long-range distances where the aircraft is operated at their

respective MTOM.

Average cargo impact from off-loaded payload = 0.17 tonnes

6.4.5

The next step is to choose a representative cargo revenue yield. For the CAEP/8 NOx

stringency analysis, cargo yields were determined from comparing IATA 2007 system average yields,

yield data collected by a manufacturer from the 2008 Association of European Airlines (AEA) Star

Report and data obtained from public sources used as inputs in the APMT-Economics model. The values

were reasonably close. The system wide values were adjusted to the 5000 NM distance using the yield -

distance adjustment curve. The cargo revenue yield value for CAEP/8 was $$0.26/RTK, in 2009 US

Dollars. This cargo revenue yield was inflated to 2012 US dollars using the US Consumer Price Index

(CPI) and the resulting value was $0.28/RTK.

6.4.6

The final step is to perform a set of calculations to estimate the lost revenue for each

impacted aircraft for the forecast years 2032 and 2042, then interpolate the intermediate years and

calculate the cumulative and present value of the lost revenue. The following equation illustrates the

approach.

Lost Revenue per year = Off-loaded payload * C-Bin Distance * Cargo Yield ($0.28 / RTK) * number of operations at MTOM

6.4.7

The lost revenue for each impacted aircraft is then aggregated to report a global cost

impact for each stringency option combination.

6.5

Other Costs

6.5.1

In subsequent sections, the label "Other Costs" represents the lost revenue, spare engine,

maintenance and incremental build costs.

7. COST EFFECTIVENESS ANALYSIS RESULTS

7.1.1

As shown in Table 5.4, the nvPM technology responses are slightly different for

stringency option combinations SO1 to SO6; but they are the same for SO7 to SO9 and for SO10 to

SO12. With these inputs, the cost and benefit consequences will be slightly different for the SO1 to SO6

stringency option combinations. Stringency option combinations SO7 to SO9 are defined by mass

stringency 4 and number stringencies 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The same engine family technology

responses were provided for SO7 to SO9 because mass stringency 4 is determined to be the driving force

for these technology responses. Likewise, SO10 to SO12 are defined by mass stringency 5 and number

stringencies 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The same engine family technology responses were provided for

SO10 to SO12 because mass stringency 5 is determined to be the driving force for these technology

responses. It is therefore understandable that there are identical cost and benefit results for SO7 to SO9,

and for SO10 to SO12

7.2

The LTO nvPM mass and number emissions results are shown in Figures 7.1 and 7.2.

Note that responding engines get their maximum nvPM Improvement (NI) level as soon as they respond.

Thus, when an engine is defined to have an NI3 mass response to pass SO3 through SO9, the NI3 benefits

are those achieved at SO9 for all NI3 responses. This response approach results in identical costs and

benefits for combined SO7 to SO9, as well as combined SO10 to SO12.

Figure 7.2: LTO nvPM Number Change from Baseline, Cumulative 2025-2042

7.3

The costs calculated included: fuel10 costs, capital costs (depreciation and finance), other

direct operating costs (crew, maintenance, landing and route costs), non-recurring aircraft owner/operator

asset value loss (AVL), non-recurring manufacturer technology response cost (NRC), spare engine costs,

incremental build costs, maintenance costs and lost revenue for long-range flights that are impacted by the

fuel trade-off penalty. In subsequent figures, the label `Other Costs' represents the lost revenue, spare

engine, maintenance and incremental build costs.

10 Figures reflect the full fuel-burn trade-off penalty, which applied .25% to all operations performed by NI3 responding types.

Undiscounted change in cumulative (2025-2042) costs (Billions US2012$) is presented in

Figure 7.3a for all markets combined. From left to right results are first shown using the original fleet

forecast (Path-B), with SO10 to SO12 shown together (SO10-12b); followed by the Path-B SO10 to

SO12 combined results minus the business jet market (SO10-12b-BJ). The last two columns on the right

are the alternative (Path A) approach for SO10-12a, and those minus the business jet market

(SO10-12a-BJ). Figure 7.3b is also provided to zoom in on the SO1 through SO9 results.

7.5

Undiscounted change in cumulative costs per nvPM Mass avoided is presented for all

markets combined in Figure 7.4. Results for nvPM Number avoided is presented Figure 7.5. The trend of

the cost effectiveness ratios for both nvPM Mass and Number show the highest cost for emissions benefit

at SO1, where only 7 of 119 GRdb types need to respond. The trend in total cost per emissions benefit is

also relatively flat from SO2 through SO9 because the analysis framework required that responding

engines meet the maximum stringency option combination defined for an nvPM Improvement (NI) level.

Thus, when an engine is defined to have an NI3 mass response to pass SO3 through SO9, the NI3 benefits

would be those achieved at SO9 for all NI3 responses.

8. OTHER RESULT VIEWS

8.1

Specific Markets: In this section, undiscounted stringency change from the baseline

results are presented for each market. Note that the scale used in the figures varies by market.

8.1.1

Narrow Body Passenger Market11 (NB-PAX): All types remain available in this market

through SO9; and for CBin-5 (101-125 seats) and CBin-7 (151-175 seats) all types remain available for

all SO. For SO10-SO12 two engine families do not respond, which results in CBin-04 (86-100 seats) and

CBin-06 (126-150 seats) capacities decreasing by 1%; operations, flight kilometres and aircraft deliveries

increase to meet the forecasted demand. The other NB-PAX CBins maintain their average capacities.

Figures 8.1a-c: Narrow Body Passenger Results

11 For this analysis regional jets are included in the NB-PAX market.

3C-28

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

8.1.2

Freighter Markets: The FESG fleet forecast for narrow-bodied freighters (NB-FR)

defines all demand as being for passenger-to-freighter converted aircraft, which are not subject to the

Standard. Russian and Ukrainian manufacturers are of a different opinion; so there are two NB-FR entries

that are included in the modelling. Both of these remain available for all SO. All wide-bodied freighter

(WB-FR) types subject to the Standard either pass or respond. Medium wide-bodied freighters (CBin-19)

are impacted by engine families not responding at SO6, when average capacity increases by 1%, and at

SO10, when average capacity decreases by 14%. For SO6-SO9 when average capacity increases it results

in a decrease in operations, flight kilometres and fleet deliveries. For SO10-SO12 when average capacity

decreases it leads to an increase in operations, flight kilometres and fleet deliveries.12

Figures 8.2a-c: Freighter Results

12 The two fleet evolution models use different capacity metrics; AAT uses ATKs and APMT-E seats. To improve alignment between the two models, the freighter equivalent seat counts in APMT-E were adjusted to more closely reflect the change in payload capacity observed in AAT for the stringencies. The results presented in the Compendium files now show closer operational and fleet alignment between the two models.

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-29

8.1.3

Business Jet Market: Since business jets are assumed to have equivalent capacity within

a CBin, there are no capacity consequences such as operational changes or fleet deliveries. There are,

however, cost consequences.

8.1.3.1

Light-medium business jets (CBins 27&28) are impacted at SO3 and SO5 and above

when one engine family does not respond. Average capital cost decreases 13% in CBin-27 and 3% in

CBin-28.

8.1.3.2

Large business jets (CBins 29-31) are impacted at SO10 when 3 of 6 engine families do

not respond. Average capital cost decreases 1% in CBin-29, 8% in CBin-30, and 3% in CBin-31.

8.1.3.3

Corporate business jets (CBin-32) are impacted at SO10 when two engine families do not

respond. Unfortunately, given the wide range of aircraft prices in this CBin, it should have been

subdivided between types above (3) and below (6) the $100M price. However, because they were

modelled together the average capital cost drops by 26% when two types priced above $200M do not

respond.

3C-30

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3 Figures 8.3a-c: Business Jet Market Results

8.1.3.4

Concerns: Some feel that it is counterintuitive to see less-expensive BJs replacing more

expensive types, which no longer respond at SO10 through SO12. There is also concern that the business

jet responses are producing a disproportionate impact on the overall fleet analysis, particularly in terms of

capital costs. Figure 5.3b shows the sensitivity results where the corporate business jet market goes from

a $29B capital cost saving to a $4B savings when the highest priced variants are no longer available and

are replaced with only a similar type priced above $200M.

8.1.4

Passenger Wide Body Market (WB-PAX): This market has nine engine families; and

all GRdb types remain available through SO9. For CBin-11 (401 seats) when one engine family does not

respond at SO10, the average remaining capacity is 3% lower. Two engine families are used for CBin-9

(211-300 seats), when one does not respond at SO10 average capacity increases by 1% when CBin-9 is

modelled alone (Path-B). Six engine families are used for CBin-10 (301-400 seats), when three do not

respond at SO10 average capacity increases by 3% when CBin-10 is modelled alone (Path-B). These

capacity increases reduce fleet deliveries, operations and the associated costs.

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-31

8.1.4.1

The reason this analysis had a Path-A and Path-B was covered in Section 1.3. The details

regarding the Path-A and Path-B fleet evolution modelling results was covered in Section 3.2.6. The

impact for capital costs is discussed in Section 5.4.6.

8.1.4.2

Per Table 3.1, the proportion of total baseline operations forecasted for CBin-9 (211-300

seats) is 14.5% and 3.5% for CBin-10 (301-400 seats). So, the assumptions for CBin-9 and how it is

modelled have more influence on the analysis than those for CBin-10. Table 8.1 lists technology

responses, seats and price assumptions for the wide-bodied passenger GRdb types up to 400 seats; and it

shows a smaller price range for CBin-9 versus CBin-10.13 So, when some GRdb types are no longer

available at SO10, the similarity of prices within CBin-9 means the change from the baseline is small if

demand is met with only CBin-9 types (Path-B). To break from the forecast and mix CBin-9/10 (Path-A)

causes the wider range of CBin-10 prices to significantly influence capital costs.

Table 8.2 shows the all-market14 level cost results for Path-A and Path-B for SO4 through

forecast-based Path-B and alternate Path-A for WB-PAX aircraft. For SO10 through SO12, there is an

$83.4B capital cost difference between the paths, which is the primary reason total costs shift from being

less than the baseline for Path-B to significantly more than the baseline for Path-A.

9. CAEP/11 DECISION

9.1

During the CAEP/11 meeting the new nvPM mass and number SARPs were agreed. This

included limit lines for nvPM mass and number, that would be applied to in-production and new engine

types from 1 January 2023, providing some alleviation for smaller engines. These limit lines were

adjusted according to the one engine characteristic level factor, and can be found in the proposed

amendments to Annex 16, Volume II contained in Appendix A to Agenda Item 3 of the CAEP/11 Report.

9.2

The CAEP/11 decision amends Annex 16, Volume II, Part IV to include mandatory

reporting of nvPM system losses to the certificating authority. The mandatory reporting of system losses

allows for proper calculation of nvPM emissions for inventory purposes, is expected to be a minor burden

on the competent authority, and is not part of the pass/fail compliance determination of an engine type

during the certification process.

ON THE VISIBILITY OF THE EXHAUST PLUMES OF AIRCRAFT ENGINES

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1

During CAEP/10, a mass concentration limit line was developed with the aim to

"transition" towards a regulation "that is equivalent to the existing SN [Smoke Number] Standard"

[CAEP10-WG3-PMTG10-WP6]. This transitional mass concentration Standard was developed by

correlating SN with mass concentration, shifting this best fit line upwards by ~2 standard deviations and

substituting the  = (00) limit line relationship into this. The goal of the transition was to allow for the collection of mass concentration data to create the framework for the regulation and thus it was

developed to ensure all engines that pass the SN limit line would also pass the mass concentration limit

line.

1.2

A corollary of this ~2 standard deviation shift is that statistically we expect

approximately 97.5% of engines that lie on the CAEP/10 limit line to be above the SN limit line. A

schematic portrayal of this was provided in CAEP11-WG3-PMTG08-Flimsy06. These conclusions

suggest that the method used to convert the SN limit line to an equivalent mass concentration limit line

does not provide the clarity required for regulatory purposes to assess whether the CAEP/10 limit

prevents the visibility of smoke plumes.

1.3

Aerosol optical theory and a visibility criterion can be used to identify the mass

concentration at which the smoke plume may become visible, which formed the basis for developing the

SN limit line. An introduction to this theory was provided in CAEP11-WG3-PMTG09-Flimsy03, which

included a preliminary method to estimate the core nozzle diameter of unmixed turbofan engines. In this

paper, we improve upon and extend the analysis presented during PMTG/09 with a validated, iterative gas

turbine model used to estimate the exhaust nozzle diameter, a modern update to the optics theory

equations and constants, and a model for estimating the transmissivity of exhaust plumes for mixed and

unmixed turbofan engines.

1.4

During CAEP/11 meeting it was agreed that 1 January 2023 would be the end date for the

applicability of the SN SARPs for engines of a rated thrust > 26.7kN.

2. VISIBILITY OF THE SMOKE NUMBER LIMIT LINE FOR TURBOJETS

2.1

A derivation of the smoke number (SN) that has a transmission of 98% is covered in

Munt (1979), which finds that the limit line has a transmission slightly greater than this. This means that,

according to the method developed by Munt, the SN limit line conservatively prevents the visibility of an

exhaust plume at the 98% transmission level.

2.2

The derivation requires three pieces of information. First, optics theory and associated

absorption coefficients gives a relationship to estimate the transmission as a function of concentration and

path length. The optics theory is based on a method described in Champagne (1971) and the absorption

coefficient is derived analytically in Stockham and Betz (1970) for graphite rather than soot from a

kerosene flame. Second, a relationship between mass concentration and smoke number is required, which

is also described in Champagne (1971). Finally, a relationship between rated thrust and path length is

derived based on measurements made by Munt.

3C-36

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

2.3

These three parts can be combined together to produce an estimate of the SN with a

transmission of 98% as a function of rated thrust. Munt finds this line to lie slightly above the EPA

NPRM (equivalent to the SN limit line) as shown in the diagram below.

FIGURE B3: RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SN AND RATED THRUST ADAPTED FROM MUNT (1979). THE EPA NPRM IS IDENTICAL TO THE SN LIMIT LINE, THE MIL-E-8593A IS THE CORRESPONDING MILITARY LIMIT LINE AND THE 98% AND 95% TRANSMISSION LINES ARE DERIVED BY MUNT.

2.4

The analysis by Munt can be reproduced on a mass concentration versus rated thrust

basis. This is useful to help identify the mass concentration at 98% transmission according to the method

developed by Munt. Unfortunately, the path length versus rated thrust relationship was not provided by

Munt, so we use his data points to estimate the best fit line. The relationship is shown in Figure B4 and

Eq 1 shows the coefficients and form of the equation.

L = 1.23 - 0.95  e-0.01100

Eq 1

where L is the path length in meters and 00 is the rated thrust in kN.

FIGURE B4: BEST FIT LINE BETWEEN RATED THRUST AND CORE NOZZLE DIAMETER USING DATA TABULATED IN MUNT (1979).

2.5

With this relationship, we can apply the optics theory from Champagne (1971) to

estimate the mass concentration at a transmission of 98% and 95%, which is shown in Figure B5. These

results suggest that the SN limit line in mass concentration space is at a transmission of ~98% according

to this particular optics theory. It is also noticeable that the shape of the 98% transmission points differ

from the SN limit line, particularly at low rated thrust. This is an artefact of the relationship between rated

thrust and path length, where our best fit line is slightly higher than that derived by Munt at a rated thrust

below ~50 kN.

3. IMPROVEMENTS TO MUNT'S ANALYSIS

3.1

There are three caveats to Munt's analysis which we address.

3.1.1

First, the optics theory that Munt used is now outdated and the modern version of it is

shown in Eq 2. In addition, the absorption coefficient was based on theoretical estimates starting from the

refractive index of black carbon. Recent literature finds that experimentally measured mass-normalized

absorption coefficients are 7.5±1.2 m2/g at a light wavelength of 550 nm (Bond and Bergstrom (2006)), ~50% higher than the equivalent value in Munt (1979) (~5.76 m2/g at a wavelength of 490 nm).

Cm,e

soot

 log(1/T) Ke L

Eq 2

3.1.2

Second, the exhaust nozzle diameters tabulated in Munt (1979) were measured from

photographs and include the size of the exhaust cone. This means that the nozzle diameters represent the

physical outer diameter of the core nozzle, while the area-equivalent diameter would be smaller than this.

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-39

Instead of using measured values, we have developed a simple turbojet cycle model that is able to estimate the area-equivalent nozzle diameter. The model only requires the overall pressure ratio (OPR) and rated thrust, and assumes values for the air-fuel ratio (AFR) of 55 at rated thrust and that the exhaust nozzle is choked. The full method is described in Appendix J.1 and the final equation to estimate the nozzle diameter is shown in Eq 3.

L = 4c009

Eq 3

where 00 is the rated thrust in N, c = 1.4 is the heat capacity ratio in the compressor and 9 is the static pressure at the exit plane found using the method described in Appendix J.1.

3.1.3

Third, the measurement system upon which the mass concentration limit line was

developed corrects all measurements to standard temperature and pressure (STP) conditions and leads to

the loss of particles as the flow passes through it. This information was not available to Munt and so we

correct to STP conditions by scaling the mass concentration from Eq 2 by the ratio of density at STP

(1.2 kg/m3) to the density at the exhaust of the engine. The latter density can be found using the turbojet

cycle model. System losses can be accounted for using the correlation found in the SCOPE11 method that

relates losses to mass concentration in reverse.

3.2

Using a subset of engines in the Engine Emissions Data Bank (EEDB), we have used the

method introduced by Munt to predict the mass concentration at a transmission of 98%. The results are

shown in Figure B6 in the blue circles. We then apply each of the 3 changes discussed earlier to show the

effect of the changes.

3C-40

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

FIGURE B6: THE MASS CONCENTRATION AT 98% VISIBILITY AGAINST RATED THRUST. BLUE FILLED CIRCLES SHOW THE RESULTS USING THE METHOD IN MUNT (1979). THE GREEN OPEN
CIRCLES APPLY THE UPDATED OPTICS THEORY BUT USE THE RATED THRUST TO PATH LENGTH
RELATIONSHIP FROM MUNT. THE RED OPEN CIRCLES THEN USE OUR TURBOJET CYCLE MODEL TO PREDICT PATH LENGTH FOR A GIVEN RATED THRUST. FINALLY, THE PURPLE FILLED CIRCLES CORRECT THE RESULTS TO STP CONDITIONS AND INCLUDE THE EFFECT OF SYSTEM LOSSES.

3.3

The green circles use the rated thrust to path length relationship derived by Munt, but use

the optics theory and coefficients from Bond and Bergstrom (2006). Relative to the blue circles, we find

that the mass concentration at 98% transmission reduces by 44%. This is an expected change since the

dimensionless absorption coefficient in Bond and Bergstrom (2006) is ~50% larger than that used by

Munt (1979).

3.4

The red circles then include the effect of using our turbojet cycle model to predict the

nozzle diameter. In this case, we find the effect on the mass concentration depends on the thrust. On

average, the nozzle diameter decreases by 10% compared with Munt (1979) leading to an increase in

mass concentration of 13%. At rated thrust above ~300 kN, where the Munt (1979) correlation is

extrapolated, the nozzle diameter is 13% larger and the mass concentration is 11% lower.

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-41

3.5

Finally, the correction to STP conditions and including system losses has the largest

effect on the mass concentration. On average, the mass concentration at 98% transmission increases by

78%. The other noticeable feature is that the purple circles more closely follow the shape of the dashed

line.

3.6

The three updates to the method show that we can reproduce the SN limit line in mass

concentration space, finding this to have a transmission of approximately 98% for turbojet engines. The

modern optics theory reduces the allowable mass concentration and this is offset mainly by the correction

to STP conditions.

4. VISIBILITY FOR UNMIXED TURBOFAN ENGINES

4.1

The previous section showed the ability to reproduce the SN limit line in mass

concentration space for turbojet engines. In this case, there was a single nozzle that contained all of the

emissions and it was this nozzle diameter that we were interested in. For an unmixed turbofan engine, the

nozzle is split into a core and bypass stream. The emissions are all contained within the core stream and

thus the relationship between the rated thrust and core nozzle diameter is now of interest. Compared to

turbojet engines, this relationship is more complicated, so we must develop a new gas turbine cycle model

that is capable of modelling unmixed turbofan engines. The optics theory, required correction to STP

conditions and artificially including system losses, are all applied in the same way as in Section 3.

4.2

The gas turbine model we have developed extracts the rated thrust, overall pressure ratio,

bypass ratio and fuel flow rate at rated thrust from the EEDB and assumes the bypass to jet velocity ratio

is fixed at 0.9. The calculation method requires iterating over the fan pressure ratio to begin until we

obtain the desired jet velocity ratio. The implementation is conducted in Python and leads to the rapid

estimation of the conditions within the engine and thus the core nozzle diameter and exhaust density. This

model is described in Appendix J.2.

4.3

To validate the results of iterative model, we have estimated the fan diameter and

compared with publicly available values for a range of engines as shown in Figure B7. The engines

chosen include mixed and unmixed engines, however every engine has been modelled as unmixed.

Estimating fan diameter requires knowledge of the air mass flow rate through the engine, which is

estimated in the iterative model, but also the hub-to-tip ratio of the fan blade. Although this value varies

between engines, we assume it to be 0.33 to create Figure B7.

3C-42

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

FIGURE B7: ACTUAL VERSUS MODELED FAN DIAMETER [IN]. BOTH MIXED AND UNMIXED ARE INCLUDED, BUT ALL ENGINES ARE MODELED AS UNMIXED.

4.4

We find the error in predicting fan diameter to be 3% on average. There is a skew

of -1.5616 in the residuals and we find too small a diameter at low rated thrust and too large a diameter at

high rated thrust. We expect that this is driven by the variation in hub-to-tip ratio as a function of rated

thrust. The largest error is 38%, however we expect this is an incorrect measured diameter that includes

the size of the nacelle, rather than just the fan blade diameter.

4.5

To further validate the results, we have run simulations in GasTurb, a detailed gas turbine

cycle programme, which is capable of modelling a variety of aircraft engine configurations. For unmixed

engines, the OPR and BPR were fixed as per the EEDB. Three iteration variables were then set: (1) the

turbine inlet temperature until the required fuel flow rate was attained; (2) the fan pressure ratio (FPR) for

a fixed jet velocity ratio; and the air mass flow rate for a fixed fan diameter.

4.6

Upon convergence of the GasTurb simulations, we compared the core nozzle diameter

with that found using the turbojet cycle discussed above. A comparison of the results is shown in Figure

B8. The error for all engines was found to be less than 5%, except for one engine with an error of 15%.

16 A skew between ±2 are considered acceptable to prove normally distributed residual

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-43

This particular engine was modelled as unmixed, however is actually a mixed-flow engine leading to a larger error in predicting the core nozzle diameter.

FIGURE B8: COMPARISON BETWEEN CORE NOZZLE DIAMETER FROM GASTURB AND THE MODELED, ITERATIVE GAS TURBINE CYCLE FOR UNMIXED ENGINES.

4.7

We can now apply the diameter estimated using our gas turbine cycle model with the

optics theory described in Section 3 to estimate the mass concentration at 98% transmission of unmixed

turbofan engines at the exit plane. These results are shown by the orange circles in Figure B9 and include

the correction to STP conditions and system losses. We also include the results for turbojets (blue circles).

3C-44

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

FIGURE B9: THE MASS CONCENTRATION AT 98% VISIBILITY AGAINST RATED THRUST FOR TURBOJETS AS FOUND IN FIGURE B5 IN PURPLE AND FOR UNMIXED TURBOFANS IN ORANGE.

4.8

These results show that the CAEP/10 limit line is at a transmission of around 98% for

unmixed turbofan engines. The variation in the results around the limit line is driven by differences in the

bypass ratio. Modern engines have gas generators with a higher specific power, driven by improvements

in component efficiency and higher turbine inlet temperatures. Furthermore, the trends also have reduced

fan pressure ratio for increased propulsive efficiency. These trends result in a smaller core nozzle

diameter and larger bypass ratio. Thus, modern turbofan engines have a higher allowable mass

concentration to prevent a visibility of 98%.

5. VISIBILITY FOR MIXED-FLOW ENGINES

5.1

The mixing between the core and bypass streams of mixed-flow engines changes the

visibility of the plume at the exit plane. Firstly, the relevant nozzle diameter changes. For unmixed

changes, we were interested in the core nozzle diameter, but for mixed-flow engines, there is only one

exhaust diameter to measure. Secondly, the mixing process leads to a lower density at the exit plane and

accordingly a smaller correction to STP conditions. Combining these two effects together, we expect that

the mass concentration at a 98% transmission to be lower for mixed-flow engines compared with

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-45

unmixed engines. At the same time, for a given core nvPM mass concentration, the mixing process reduces the mass concentration at the exit plane by the factor (1 + BPR). This gives mixed-flow engines an advantage under the current CAEP/10 limit line.

5.2

To study the visibility of mixed-flow engines, we must adapt our iterative gas turbine

model to account for the mixing process. In the engine, the static pressure at the location of mixing should

be equal. This condition requires knowledge of the internal velocities or areas, which is difficult to

estimate in our simple model. Instead, we impose that the stagnation pressure must be equal at this stage.

Although this is technically incorrect, it may be reasonable if we assume the velocities are low and similar

in the core and bypass streams prior to mixing. This model is described in Appendix J.3.

5.3

As with the unmixed engines, we have attempted to predict fan diameter using our

predicted mass flow rate and a hub-to-tip ratio of 0.33. The results are shown in Figure B10, which shows

engines that are actually unmixed in blue and engines that are actually mixed-flow in yellow. It should be

noted that all the engines were modelled as mixed-flow whether they are actually mixed or unmixed.

FIGURE B10: ACTUAL VERSUS PREDICTED DIAMETER USING THE SIMPLE GAS TURBINE MODEL. ALL ENGINES WERE MODELED AS IF THEY WERE MIXED-FLOW. ENGINES THAT ARE ACTUALLY MIXED-FLOW ARE SHOWN IN YELLOW AND THOSE THAT ARE UNMIXED ARE SHOWN IN BLUE.

3C-46

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

5.4

For all the mixed-flow engines, the error in predicting fan diameter is under 10%, except

for 1 engine where the actual fan diameter includes the nacelle size. We also run a subset of mixed-flow

engines in GasTurb and the ability to predict exhaust nozzle diameter is shown in Figure B11. These

results suggest that we consistently under-predict the exhaust nozzle diameter and we expect this to be

caused by the stagnation pressure condition that was enforced at the mixing plane.

FIGURE B11: COMPARISON BETWEEN NOZZLE DIAMETER FROM GASTURB AND THE MODELED, ITERATIVE GAS TURBINE CYCLE FOR MIXED-FLOW ENGINES.

5.5

Despite this consistent under-prediction of nozzle diameter, the results from our iterative

model can still be used to provide a mass concentration at 98% transmission. The absolute value of this

mass concentration would be slightly higher than using the GasTurb diameter, however would provide an

upper bound on the results. These results, as well as those for the turbojet and unmixed turbofan, are

shown in Figure B12.

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-47

FIGURE B12: THE MASS CONCENTRATION AT 98% VISIBILITY AGAINST RATED THRUST FOR TURBOJETS IN PURPLE, UNMIXED TURBOFANS IN ORANGE AND MIXED-FLOW ENGINES IN GREEN. THE UNFILLED BLUE SQUARES REPRESENT THE MASS CONCENTRATION OF MIXEDFLOW ENGINES ESTIMATED BY CONVERTING THE MAXIMUM SN FROM THE EDB USING THE SCOPE11 METHOD.

5.6

On average, the mass concentration at 98% transmission for mixed-flow engines is 25%

that for unmixed engines. The mixed-flow results lie below the SN limit line in mass concentration space

and the mass concentration at 98% transmission of turbojet engines. This trend occurs in spite of the

under-estimate in the nozzle diameter and so we expect the mass concentration at 98% transmission of

mixed flow engines to be even lower. These results suggest that the SN and CAEP/10 limit lines would

not prevent the visibility of plumes from mixed-flow engines at the 98% transmission level.

5.7 Figure B12 also includes the mass concentration of mixed flow engines estimated by converting the maximum SN from the EDB using the SCOPE11 method in the unfilled blue squares. These results show that all but one of the selected engines lie below our estimated mass concentration at 98% transmission for mixed-flow engines. Only one other engine lies within 10% of the estimated mass concentration at 98% transmission. These results suggest that mixed flow engines with a mass concentration at the CAEP/10 limit line or a smoke number at the SN limit line would have a transmission below 98% and thus may be visible.

3C-48

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

6. CONCLUSIONS

6.1

The SN limit line is reproducible if we consider turbojet engines and apply appropriate

corrections to STP conditions and system losses. Our results suggest that the SN limit line is at a

transmission of 98% for these engines.

6.2

First-order cycle models can be used to estimate the nozzle diameter of unmixed and

mixed-flow engines using data from the EEDB, which is needed to determine the mass concentration at

98% transmission. Validation using publicly available fan diameters and GasTurb simulations showed

that the unmixed turbofan model is accurate within 3%, while the mixed-flow turbofan model

underestimates nozzle diameter by ~20%.

6.3

For unmixed turbofan engines, the mass concentration at 98% transmission was found to

be close to the CAEP/10 limit line, however there was variability around this line driven by the

differences in bypass ratio.

6.4

For mixed-flow engines, the mass concentration at 98% transmission was found to be

below both the CAEP/10 and SN limit lines. This means that both these limit lines would not prevent the

visibility of plumes from mixed-flow engines.

6.5

Comparing the mass concentration at a 98% transmission with mass concentration

estimated using the SCOPE11 method for in-production mixed-flow engines, we found that all

mixed-flow engines, except 1, lay below the mass concentration at 98% transmission, suggesting that

these mixed-flow engines would not have a visible plume.

8. APPENDIX J.1 ­ TURBOJET CYCLE MODEL

8.1

Eq 4 shows how the engine nozzle diameter is found

L = 4F009

Eq 4

where F00 is the engine rated thrust,  is the heat capacity ratio in the compressor and 9 is the static pressure at the exit plane. To estimate 9, we have developed a turbojet cycle model. This also lets us estimate the density at the exit plane in order to correct the mass concentration to STP conditions.

8.2

The model requires the input of two variables: the overall pressure ratio (OPR) and the

air-fuel ratio (AFR). The OPR is found from the EEDB, where we use rated thrust and OPR pairs in order

to sample the domain space. The AFR is assumed to be 55 for all turbojets and we assume overall

compressor and turbine polytropic efficiencies to be 0.78 and 0.83 respectively. Gas properties are also

assumed to change after combustion with the heat capacity ratio reducing from 1.4 to 1.3 and the heat

capacity at constant pressure increasing from  = 1,005 to  = 1,250 J/kg/K. The fuel is assumed to have a lower calorific value (LCV) of 43.2 MJ/kg.

apply an energy balance across the combustor to estimate the turbine inlet conditions (subscript t4).

9. APPENDIX J.2 ­ UNMIXED TURBOFAN CYCLE MODEL

9.1

For unmixed turbofans, the typical method to estimate conditions within the engine are to

specify a rated thrust, OPR, BPR and turbine inlet temperature (4), while setting the jet velocity ratio to
be ~0.9. The EEDB does not provide 4 at take-off conditions, instead supplying the fuel flow rate. This requires us to use an iterative process to converge on a solution for this engine.

9.2

We use a least-squares solver in Python in order to identify the value of fan pressure ratio

(FPR) that leads to a converged solution. The first step therefore involves guessing a FPR. With this

value, we can estimate the conditions downstream of the fan as well as the bypass jet velocity.

Pt13 = FPR  Pt2
-1
13 = 2FPR

Eq 10

where subscript 13 refers to conditions downstream of the fan in the bypass stream and  is the fan polytropic efficiency assumed to be 0.9. The bypass jet velocity (19) is then found using Eq 11.

19

Eq 11

where subscript 19 refers to the bypass nozzle exit plane and  is the ambient pressure. This method assumes that the bypass nozzle is perfectly expanded. This may not be reasonable particularly for smaller
engines with a higher FPR. Thus, we check the exit Mach number to see if it is subsonic. If it is
supersonic, we force the Mach number to be 1 and back out the exit plane pressure accordingly.

9.3

The conditions in the gas generator can then be estimated following a similar method to

that for turbojet engines. We apply Eq 5 to estimate conditions downstream of the compressor assuming

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

3C-51

 = 0.9. Before we apply the combustor energy balance in Eq 6, we must identify the AFR. This is found using the jet velocity ratio of 0.9 to estimate the core jet velocity (9) from the bypass jet velocity found in Eq 11 and then applying a momentum balance around the whole engine.

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 3

10. APPENDIX J.3 ­ MIXED-FLOW TURBOFAN CYCLE MODEL

10.1

For mixed-flow engines, the jet velocity ratio cannot be fixed since there is a single

stream exiting the engine. Instead, the static pressure in the core and bypass stream must be equal at the

mixer. To force this condition, we require information on the velocities at the mixer, which in turn

requires details of the areas at these locations. An alternative, less accurate option is to enforce that the

stagnation pressures at the mixer match. This is expected to give reasonable results since the velocity

tends to be subsonic and thus leads to stagnation pressures being close to matching.

10.2

The method begins in a similar fashion to unmixed turbofan engines. We guess a FPR

and apply Eq 10 to estimate conditions downstream of the fan in the bypass stream.

10.3

We then need a method to estimate the core mass flow rate that leads to the stagnation

pressure downstream of the turbine being equal to that downstream of the fan in the bypass. This requires

a second, embedded iteration loop where we cycle over the core mass flow rate, solving Eq 6 across the

combustor and Eq 13 across the turbine until the stagnation pressure condition is found. This gives us the

stagnation conditions at the turbine exit.

10.4

The final step involves modelling the mixing process between the core and bypass

streams. We assume that the flow perfectly mixes with no stagnation pressure loss and calculate the

mixed out conditions by mass-averaging between the core and bypass conditions.



=

13BPR + 5 1 + BPR



=

BPR +  1 + BPR

where subscript m refers to the mixed out conditions.

Eq 16

10.5

Finally, these mixed out conditions can be used to find the jet velocity and thus the gross

thrust of the engine. This is compared with the rated thrust input to the solver and if the error is low

enough then the solver completes. If not then, the iteration loops over a different FPR.

11. APPENDIX J.4 ­ GASTURB SIMULATIONS

11.1

To validate both the unmixed and mixed flow solvers, we have used the GasTurb

software to model a subset of engines.

11.2

GasTurb is a fast and accurate solver that allows us to iterate over certain variables to

model engines. The OPR and BPR are provided in the EEDB and set as fixed variables in the solver.

11.2.1

For unmixed engines, we set three variables that we iterate over: (1) 4 until the desired

fuel flow rate from the EEDB is found; (2) FPR until the jet velocity ratio, set as 0.9, is found; and (3) air

mass flow rate until the fan diameter is found. The fan diameter is publicly available and we believe is

better for estimating the nozzle dimensions than rated thrust.

11.2.2

For mixed flow engines, a very similar set of variables are selected to iterate over,

however the jet velocity ratio is no longer available to us.

The SCOPE11 method provides a correlation to convert smoke number to mass

APPENDIX B (English only)
HELICOPTER NOISE CORRELATION TASK REPORT

4B-1

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1

The task N.08.01, decided at the CAEP/10, asked to "Investigate the feasibility of

correlating certification noise levels with operational noise levels to better assess the helicopter noise

certification scheme and its relevance to day- to-day operations, similar to the studies done for jets."

1.2

WG1 reviewed the mentioned study done for jets to facilitate the analysis. In addition, the

task description "similar to the studies done for jets" was refined and the task description accordingly

reformulated to: "Investigate the feasibility of correlating the ranking of helicopters based on noise

certification levels with the ranking based on operational noise data to better assess the helicopter noise

certification scheme and its relevance to day-to-day operations". Finally, WG1 discussed basic

considerations on typical flight phases during helicopter missions and their possible applicability for the

correlation task along with possible sources of operational data.

1.3

WG1 then worked to secure operational noise measurements data. A sample of helicopter

noise measurement performed in Sweden was presented during WG1_1. Norway provided helicopter noise

measurements performed for two offshore helicopters for development of Noise Power Distance (NPD)

data typically used for land-use planning purposes. In order to acquire available measurements to support

the analysis, the group agreed to prepare a State Letter to request helicopter noise data from ICAO

contracting states. Additionally, measurement information on eight different helicopters in various flight

conditions came from the Public European Environmental Model Suite for Aviation. Finally, WG1

decided to review data from a 1984 operational noise test conducted by the FAA at Dulles Airport near

Washington, DC where eight helicopters models were measured.

2. DATA REVIEW AND PRELIMINARY RESULTS

2.1

Methodology Review: WG1 reviewed a correlation analyses between noise certification

EPNL and operational SEL for the eight helicopter models included in operational noise testing

conducted by the FAA at Dulles Airport near Washington DC in 1984. The correlations give preliminary

indications that noise certification data can provide adequate rank ordering of operational noise emissions

for helicopters.

2.2

Data Review: As feedback to the state letter, data from four members (Latvia, Australia,

Japan, Russia) involving operational data was provided. WG1 reviewed available information received in

response to the state letter and determined that only the Australian noise data sets were considered to be

sufficient for the correlation task. Either the other data sets represented certification data only or the

number of different helicopter models contained was too small to allow a meaningful statistical analysis.

For example, the Latvian data is of similar nature to the Australian data but heavily dominated by only

one helicopter model and thus not appropriate for a statistically relevant analysis.

2.3

Among the data sets supplied by Australia, the operational data obtained around Sydney

Airport was identified as most promising for the correlation task due to the large number of different

helicopter models combined with a significant number of recorded movements. Based on the location of

4B-2

Appendix B to the Report on Agenda Item 4

the operational measurements relative to the Sydney Airport, however, correlations were limited to Flyover only.

2.4

Data Analysis: Substantial effort was needed to utilize the Sydney Airport data for the

correlation task, since the helicopters in the Australian data set are only characterized by their ICAO type

designation. In order to assign the respective noise certification level to each database entry, the unique

helicopter model identifier needed to be established. WG1 requested this information from Australia but

unfortunately, the information is not available in their database. Therefore, the identification of models

has been conducted manually by the OEMs by correlating the noise data base with Australian CAA

registration data and in-house information from the respective sales departments. Using this methodology,

an identification of helicopter models operated in the Sydney area has been achieved for many models.

2.5

Based on the operational noise dataset around Sidney Airport, a statistical analysis was

establish to compare the rankings of helicopter models based on operational and certification noise data.

This statistical analysis concludes that "there is a good correlation between the certified noise level in

EPNdB on Flyover and the noise levels measured in operational conditions in SEL. The sample is

composed of very different helicopter types (twin-engine and single engine, different power, different

MTOM, different manufacturer)." WG1 also suggests that to confirm this trend, a larger dataset should be

investigated.

2.6

Aside from the operational data received in response to the ICAO state letter, two large

scale test campaigns in Europe and the US have been conducted in 2017/2018. However, the data is not

yet available.

3. CONCLUSIONS

3.1

Considerable effort has been put in the search for adequate data and the pre-processing of

this data to render it accessible for a noise ranking correlation analyses.

3.2

Analysis of a 1984 FAA measurement campaign at Dulles Airport with eight helicopters

indicates a preliminary feasibility of correlating the ranking of helicopters based on certification noise

levels with a ranking based on operational noise levels.

3.3

Analysis of operational noise measurement data acquired around Sydney Airport for five

different helicopter models showed a good correlation between the ranking of helicopters based on

flyover noise certification with the ranking of helicopters based on operational data.

3.4

Results of the analyses of the earlier FAA noise data and the more recent operational

noise data support further extending the correlation analysis when the additional European and U.S. noise

test data becomes available.

3.5

The achievability of the task is limited particularly by the lack of adequate operational

data. Even with the lack of data, the feasibility analyses of the information available to date indicate a

potential for correlation between the ranking of helicopters based on certification noise levels and a

ranking based on operational noise levels, while noting that a low number of aircraft models were

represented on the current analysis.

Appendix B to the Report on Agenda Item 4

4B-3

3.6

WG1 agreed that the information available to date suggests that the helicopter noise

certification scheme has relevancy to day-to-day operations especially for flyover.

3.7

WG1 discussed the need for additional data to support further investigations on this topic,

and it was agreed that additional data should ideally contain helicopter model and tail number associated

with the noise measurements.

APPENDIX C (English only)
HELICOPTER HOVER TASK REPORT

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1

Working Group 1 was tasked to review any past evaluations of a noise certification

scheme for the hover condition, and assess whether the current helicopter noise certification scheme is

applicable for assessing hover noise including the sufficiency of a correlation with one or more of the

existing reference conditions.

1.2

Including a hover reference point for helicopter noise certification was examined as part

of the original development of Chapter 8 of the Annex during CAN/5 and CAN/6. During this

development period for the Annex, it was concluded that the hover condition did not provide the

repeatability and accuracy needed for a noise certification reference point. This conclusion was primarily

based on the results of measurement programs carried out by Member States.

1.3

WG1 conducted a more detailed review of the hover work done during and subsequent to

CAN/5 and CAN/6. To facilitate this review, WG1 collected the relevant documentation produced during

CAN/5 ­ CAN/6 and identified additional relevant WG1 documentation from CAEP/6.

1.4

WG1 identified a 2016 European test campaign where hover data was measured. An

evaluation of hover noise data acquired during the 2016 European test campaign indicated that

measurement of hover noise lacks adequate repeatability for noise certification purposes. In addition, the

U.S. conducted a test campaign in 2017, which also had a goal of collecting hover data.

1.5

In summary, WG1 found no new information to alter the conclusion reached by CAN/5

and CAN/6 during development of Chapter 8 of the Annex to exclude the hover condition or to change

the recommendation to exclude hover from Land Use Planning guidelines developed during CAEP/6,

which stated "The hover flight configuration should not be included in any noise measurement

programme (noise certification or Land Use Planning)."

2. DATA ANALYSIS

2.1

Considering that final data from the European and US test campaigns have not yet been

analysed, WG1 examined In-Ground Effect (IGE) and Out-of-Ground Effect (OGE) hover noise data for

several helicopter models acquired by the FAA during 1983 and 1984. While a preliminary rank order

analysis of three of the helicopter models was completed, it illustrated some of the issues in defining a

hover noise measurement/metric for correlation with the noise certification test points such as hard vs.

soft surface and average vs. maximum azimuthal level. WG1 also conducted a correlation analyses

between noise certification EPNL and hover noise data for nine of the helicopter models tested by the

FAA in 1983 and 1984. Three correlation methods were examined including comparisons of noise level

correlations with gross weight, direct correlations of hover noise levels with noise certification levels and

rank order comparisons of hover noise and noise certification levels. In general, no or inconclusive

statistical correlations between hover and certification noise levels were observed. More specifically, only

a correlation of Out-of-Ground Effect (OGE) hover noise levels vs. gross weight provided any indication

4C-2

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 4

of comparative results to noise certification levels, albeit with insufficient correlation strength/data points to be considered conclusive. OGE hover noise data for more helicopter models over a broader gross weight range could potentially provide a more conclusive result. The prospect for additional data would be enhanced with the establishment of guidelines for acquisition of hover noise data to ensure more consistent testing procedures.

3. CONCLUSIONS

3.1

The review of past evaluations of a noise certification scheme for the hover conditions

(In-Ground Effect - IGE and Out-of-Ground Effect - OGE) is complete and further data is not available

at the time being. Based on the information available to date, it does not appear feasible to define a

measurement method for the hover condition with the accuracy and repeatability needed for a reference

noise certification point in Annex 16, Chapters 8 and 11.

3.2

The limited IGE and OGE hover noise data acquired during FAA noise testing in

1983-84 do not support, or indicate the feasibility of, correlating hover noise levels with the current

helicopter noise certification test scheme. While the possibility of having a trend between OGE hover

noise and helicopter gross weight was discussed, it was recognized that the current trend identified is

supported by a single point in the low-weight helicopter range. Therefore, this investigation could

benefit from additional data from helicopters with gross weights in that weight range. On that note,

WG1 agreed that further work is needed to substantiate if there is a trend between OGE hover noise and

gross weight comparable to that of noise certification test conditions.

3.3

WG1 recommends that if new data becomes available, the feasibility of correlating

hover noise with the current helicopter noise certification scheme should be further examined.

3.4

WG1 recommends that the CAEP/12 work programme include the development of

measurement guidelines for hover noise data in support of future hover noise work. Members of

ICCAIA will consider sharing OEM hover measurement procedures and hover data.

APPENDIX A (English only)
RECOMMENDATIONS ON OPERATIONALIZATION OF THE PUBLICATION OF DATA BY ICAO

1.1

The recommendations in this section apply to ICAO, and are relevant to the documents

listed in Note 2 of Part II, Chapter 1 of Annex 16, Volume IV. The Registries Task Group acknowledges

the standard practice of the ICAO Secretariat is that the documents listed in Table 1 should follow the

harmonized format rules and be presented in a downloadable .pdf.

1.2

Table 1 presents a list of documents referred to in paragraph 1.1, including information

on SARPs data submission and publication deadlines, as well as any additional relevant information.

Specific recommendations for the documents in Table 1 are:

1.2.1

Table 1, Document 2 `ICAO CORSIA CO2 Estimation and Reporting Tool' should be

published as soon as practicable for each year of CORSIA.

1.2.2

Table 1, Document 8 `CORSIA Eligible Emissions Units' should present information in a

format which shows the eligibility parameters of eligible units.

1.2.3

Table 1, Document 14, part containing `List of verification bodies accredited in each

State', should be published as soon as practicable, but no later than 31 May 2019. Further updates to this

list should be published as soon as practicable on an ongoing basis, subject to the provision of updated

information from States as per Annex 16, Volume IV, Part II, Chapter 1, 1.3.7.

1.2.4

Table 1, Document 14, part containing `Total average CO2 emissions for 2019 and 2020

aggregated for all Aeroplane Operators on each State pair route', should be published as soon as

practicable, but no later than 30 November 2021.

1.2.5

Table 1, Document 14, part containing `CCR State reported emissions', should be

published in accordance with Note 2, of Table A5-8, in Appendix 5 of Annex 16, Volume IV, as soon as

practicable, but no later than 31 October 2022 (for 2021 emissions). The same day and month should

apply to subsequent years.

1.2.6

Table 1, Document 14, part containing `CCR State reported emissions unit

cancellations', should be published in accordance with Note 2, of Table A5-8, in Appendix 5 of

Annex 16, Volume IV, as soon as practicable, but for the Pilot Phase no later than 31 October 2025. The

same day and month should apply to subsequent compliance periods.

1.3

ICAO public information relating to identification of States, aeroplane operators,

verification bodies, or other entities will be as notified to ICAO by the States. This is to ensure a high

level of consistency of data published by ICAO and States.

1.4

Public information should be available free of charge. The web pages containing this

information should be available to the general public, with no credentials required, and with no prior

authorization necessary to access them.

6A-2

Appendix A to the Report on Agenda Items 6, 7 and 8

1.5

When there is an update to the information, a change log should be published alongside

the new version of the document. The change log should include the modifications occurring since the

previous version, as well as the date when the modifications occurred. For data for which this is relevant,

the change log should include the beginning of the validity of the modifications. Previous versions of the

implementation elements may be required for various purposes and should be archived (but

downloadable) for State and public use. The exception is where there are two (or more) versions of the

same document could be simultaneously valid and should remain clearly visible and available for

download. In this case, it should be clearly specified under which circumstances each version is

applicable.

1.6

Where a State or ICAO identifies a discrepancy of data already published, it is

recommended that ICAO and States coordinate in order to publish the correction with a minimum of

delay between each other, to reduce the time interval when the data is discrepant between the two web

pages. To ensure transparency, previous versions (editions) of documents which have been modified

should be retained and made available on the web page, while making clear they have been subsequently

updated.

1.7

The CORSIA public web pages should have contact information for further enquiries by

the general public. It is recommended that there is a dedicated online form or electronic mailbox for

CORSIA enquiries.

1.8

In addition to any web-based presentation / summary information, and any presentation

of information in a downloadable document, where large quantities of information are to be published, the

recommendation is for the information to be published in a machine-readable, downloadable format, e.g.

xlsx.

1.9

Where large quantities of information are to be presented by ICAO on a publicly

accessible website, it is recommended that all such available information can be searched on the website

by each relevant data field, subject to the availability of financial resources.

Appendix B to the Report on Agenda Items 6, 7 and 8

6B-1

APPENDIX B (English only)
PROPOSED PROGRAM REGISTRY-RELATED CONSIDERATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS

1.1. The following proposed registry-related considerations and requirements follow from the contents of the proposed draft Emissions Unit Program Registry Attestation (Section 4).

1.1.1. Recommended definition of Emissions Unit Program Registry: An Emissions Unit Program Registry is a registry that the program designates to provide its registry services; and is described in the information that the program submits to ICAO.

1.1.2.

Recommended definition of the emissions unit program ­ registry relationship: The application of the EUC to determine program eligibility includes an assessment of the program's provisions and procedures governing the program registry, as represented by the program in the information that the program submits to ICAO. ICAO does not separately or independently evaluate the program registry. The program registry's provision of registry services relevant to the CORSIA shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the program's eligibility. Such terms include, inter alia, the program's commitment to administer any and all provisions and procedures governing the program registry in the manner represented by the program in the information that the program submits to ICAO.

1.1.3.

Recommendation on timing of applicability of registry requirements: The program registry can provide registry services to Aeroplane Operators prior to the program's and program registry's demonstration of the registry's consistency with these registry requirements. However, the program registry can only claim to support and can only provide for Airplane Operators to fulfill CORSIA SARPs involving emissions unit cancellation-, reporting-, and verification-related actions after its consistency with these requirements is demonstrated, and published on the CORSIA website along with the list of CORSIA Eligible Emissions Units.

1.1.4.

Recommendation on registry affirmation of program information: The program registry shall / should affirm that the program's representation of its provisions and procedures governing the program registry, and of program registry functionality, as contained in the most recent information that the program submits to ICAO, is true, accurate, and complete, to the best of the registry representative's knowledge;

1.1.5. Recommendation on notification of material changes to registry: The program registry shall / should notify the program of any material changes1 to the program registry, such that the program
can maintain consistency with relevant criteria and guidelines.

1.1.6. Recommendation on registry non-discrimination based solely on account applicant location: The program registry shall / should not deny a CORSIA participant's request for a registry account solely on the basis of the country in which the requestor is headquartered or based.

1 As referred to in CAEP-11/SG20161/WP-015, "Material" change is defined as "...updates that would alter the program's response(s) to questions in application form." In the context of an emissions unit program registry, the same applies to any changes to the registry procedures or functions that are addressed in the EUC, Guidelines, or the requirements in Section 2 of this Appendix that would alter the program's response(s) to questions in application form or contradict the confirmation of the registry's adherence to the requirements contained in Section 2 of this Appendix.

6B-2

Appendix B to the Report on Agenda Items 6, 7 and 8

1.1.7.

Recommendation on functionality for designating purpose of cancellation: The program registry shall / should have the capability to designate the participant's cancellation of units for the purpose of reconciling offsetting requirements under the CORSIA, including by compliance cycle.

1.1.8.

Recommendation on publishing the cancellation information: The program registry shall / should, within 1 ­ 3 business days2 of receipt of formal instruction from a duly authorized representative of the owner of an account capable of holding and cancelling CORSIA Eligible Emission Units within the registry, and barring system downtime that is scheduled in advance or beyond the control of the registry administrator, make visible on the program registry's public website the account owners cancellations of CORSIA Eligible Emission Units as instructed. Such cancellation information shall / should include all fields that are specified for this purpose in the CORSIA SARPs

1.1.9.

Recommendation on public accessibility of cancelation information: The program registry shall / should ensure that all cancellation information on its website is presented in a user-friendly format; is available at no cost and with no credentials required; is capable of being searched based on data fields; and can be downloaded in a machine-readable format, e.g., .xlsx.

1.1.10. Recommendation on generation of reports, upon request: The program registry shall / should, upon request of the CORSIA participant account holder or participant's designee, generate report(s) containing the information specified for this purpose in the CORSIA SARPs.

1.1.11. Recommendation on verifier registry access: The program registry shall / should, upon request of an account owner, provide a verification body with "viewing-privileges-only" access to the relevant account(s) and/or cancelled emissions units.

1.1.12. Recommendation on document and data retention: The program registry shall / should retain documents and data relevant to CORSIA Eligible Emissions Units and cancellations on an ongoing basis and for at least three years beyond the end date of the latest compliance period in which the emissions unit program is determined to be eligible; and consistent with the program's long-term planning, including plans for possible dissolution.

1.1.13. Recommendation on registry security provisions: The program registry shall / should maintain security practices that ensure the integrity of, and authenticated and secure access to, the registry data of CORSIA participant account holders or participants' designees, and transaction events carried out by a user; and disclose documentation of such practices upon request. The program registry shall / should utilize appropriate method(s) to authenticate the identity of each user accessing an account; grant each user access only to the information and functions that a user is entitled to; and ensure each event initiated by a user (i.e. transfer of units between accounts; cancellation / retirement of a unit, update of data, etc.) is an intentional transaction event confirmed by the user. Such security features should meet and be periodically updated in accordance with industry best practice.

1.1.14. Recommendation on notification of breach of data security or integrity: The program registry shall / should, upon identifying any breach of program registry data security or integrity that affects a CORSIA participant account holder or participant's designee, notify the CORSIA participant account holder or their designee, and inform the program, which will notify and engage with ICAO on the matter in the same manner as conducted for any material changes to program procedures.

2 Business days as defined by the registry administrator.

Appendix B to the Report on Agenda Items 6, 7 and 8

6B-3

1.1.15. Recommendation on irreversibility of emissions units cancellation: The program registry shall / should ensure the irreversibility of emissions unit cancellations and the designation of the purpose of emissions units cancellations as per the requirements contained in paragraphs 2.1.7 and 2.1.8, and as defined and required in Annex 16 Volume IV, Chapter 4: Standard and Recommend Practices (SARPs) for the CORSIA3. Without prejudice to the aforementioned, such requirement would not prevent a program registry from utilizing secure, time-bound and auditable methods for correcting unintentional user-entry errors.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- --

3 From Annex 16, Volume IV, Chapter 4: Standards and Recommend Practices (SARPs) for the CORSIA: "`Cancel' means the permanent removal and single use of an CORSIA Eligible Emissions Unit within a CORSIA Eligible Emissions Unit Program designated Registry such that the same emissions unit may not be used more than once. This is sometimes also referred to as `retirement', `cancelled', `cancelling' or `cancellation'."

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Items 6, 7 and 8

6C-1

APPENDIX C (English only)
BASIC TOR AND PROPOSED ADDITIONAL RULES OF PROCEDURE FOR THE TECHNICAL ADVISORY BODY (TAB)
Part A: Basic TOR for the TAB (as approved by the Council as C-DEC 215/7, Appendix)
Secretariat note: Upon approval of Part B by the Council, Part A and Part B will be integrated as the TOR for TAB.

1. MANDATE OF TAB

1.1

In line with the Assembly request, the mandate of the TAB is to make recommendations

to the Council on the eligible emissions units for use by the CORSIA.

2. TASKS OF TAB

2.1

In fulfilling this mandate, the TAB is tasked to:

1) undertake the assessment of emissions unit programmes (and potentially project types) against the emissions units criteria, applying as a starting point the CAEP Programme Testing Group's procedures and guidelines for applying the emissions units criteria;

2) ensure that emissions unit programmes around the world can receive advance notice of, and are given ample time to apply for, the assessment by TAB; ensure outreach and ample notice and opportunity for input from stakeholders, with the support of the ICAO Secretariat;

3) develop, in a transparent manner, recommendations on the list of eligible emissions unit programmes (and potentially project types) whose emissions units would be eligible based on the emissions units criteria, for the compliance use under the CORSIA, for presentation to the Council;

4) adjust its work, if needed, in light of any developments of work by the ICAO Council, with technical contribution of CAEP, in any reviews of the emissions unit criteria, which are set out in the ICAO CORSIA Implementation Elements; and

5) undertake any other tasks as instructed by the Council.

6C-2

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Items 6, 7 and 8

3. EXPERTISE AND EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS

3.1

In order for the TAB to undertake the tasks as outlined in paragraph 2 above, TAB

members are required to have relevant expertise and experience such as in carbon markets, carbon offset

project development, carbon offset programmes and methodologies, and climate policy and related

subjects. TAB members are required to meet at least two of the following five technical expertise

requirements, which have to be substantiated at the time of nomination:

a) experience in the design, development, operation or evaluation of market-based measures for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions (e.g. emissions trading systems, offsetting standards or programmes, the international carbon market);

b) experience in the quantification or forecasting of greenhouse gas emissions;

c) experience in the creation or use of emissions units (offset credits or allowances);

d) experience in developing, operating or using emissions units registries/carbon trading registries and emissions inventories;

e) experience in ensuring the transparency and accountability of carbon market programmes and carbon market operations.

3.2

In addition, it would be desirable (though not essential) that TAB members have

experience with ICAO processes, in particular those related to CORSIA.

4. AVOIDANCE OF CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

4.1

Thorough evaluation is undertaken to avoid conflicts of interest of TAB members. In

particular, TAB members should not be holding a financial and/or commercial interest in any

organization, project, and/or programme that would benefit from the member's appointment. This has to

be substantiated at the time of nomination, through a personal declaration.

5. DURATION OF SERVICE

5.1

Regarding the duration of service by TAB members and to ensure consistency in the

work of TAB, TAB membership is aligned with the compliance cycles of the CORSIA (potentially with a

short term for work undertaken prior to 2021), and a statement of commitment to the work of TAB for at

least one full compliance cycle of CORSIA is provided at the time of nomination.

6. MEMBERSHIP SIZE

6.1

In principle, the size of the TAB should be in the order of 14 to 16 experts, nominated by

States, taking into account the need for balanced geographical representation.

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Items 6, 7 and 8

6C-3

Part B: Proposed Additional Rules of Procedure for the TAB

Secretariat note: The Council, in November 2018, requested CAEP to provide further advice regarding additional rules of procedure for the TAB, which would complement the approved basic TOR, for the Council consideration and approval by its 216th Session in March 2019 (C-DEC 215/7, paragraph 32 e)).

Secretariat note: Upon approval of Part B by the Council, Part A and Part B will be integrated as the TOR for TAB.

7. MEMBERSHIP

Selection of Co-Chairpersons for TAB

7.1

The TAB selects two Co-Chairpersons from among its members at the first TAB meeting.

7.2

The Co-Chairpersons should not be from the same geographical region.

Conduct of TAB members:

7.3

TAB members are to conduct themselves in accordance with the TAB's TOR.

7.4

The TAB Co-Chairpersons may bring to the Council's attention any serious concerns

regarding a member's consistency with the TOR, which may become apparent in the course of the TAB's

work, in particular concerns related to the participation of TAB members and conflicts of interest should

be informed to the Council.

Replacement of TAB Members during a CORSIA compliance cycle

7.5

The replacement of an existing TAB Member during a compliance cycle of the CORSIA

is approved by the Council.

7.6

The replacement must meet the same criteria as outlined in the TOR for the TAB.

7.7

The outgoing member's nominating State should first be allowed to nominate a

replacement.

7.7.1

If a replacement is not nominated by that State or should the Council reject the nominated

replacement, ICAO would then seek nominations from the outgoing member's geographic region.

7.7.2

If a replacement is not nominated by a State from that geographical region or should the

Council reject the nominated replacement(s), ICAO would then seek nominations from all States.

7.7.3

Where possible, the replacement of TAB members should be staggered over CORSIA

compliance cycles to ensure continuity of knowledge and expertise.

8. WORKING METHODS

Modality and frequency of TAB meetings

8.1

Face-to-face meetings of the TAB are the primary means of organizing the TAB's work,

making significant decisions in particular TAB's recommendations to the Council, and resolving

substantive issues.

8.2

The TAB is also expected to conduct business via teleconferences and emails between the

face-to-face meetings to progress the work.

8.3

TAB discusses and agrees on a schedule of meetings, which can be reviewed later as

necessary. The number of TAB meetings should be sufficient to achieve the deliverables for the TAB as

set by the Council.

8.4

If changes to the meeting schedule or additional meetings are required, the

Co-Chairpersons will, after consultations with TAB members, give notice of any changes in the meeting

schedule and/or additional meetings.

Note. The Co-Chairpersons are encouraged to give approximately 8 weeks' notice of any changes in the face-to-face meeting schedule and/or additional face-to-face meetings. Quorum for TAB recommendations

8.5

A majority of TAB Members, at least from three geographical regions, must be present at

a TAB meeting in order to constitute a quorum to make TAB recommendations. This rule would not

apply to the meetings of a sub-group or other structural arrangements by TAB, to make progress on

specific work.

Working language for TAB meetings

8.6

The working language of the TAB is English. The recommendations of TAB are

translated in all six languages, for consideration by the Council.

Decision process

8.7

TAB's final recommendations to the Council, including the underlining decisions by the

TAB, are taken by consensus. If there is no consensus, then the prevailing and alternative conclusions will

be described and substantiated, and presented to the Council for decision.

Openness of TAB meetings

8.8

As a general rule, TAB meetings will only be open to TAB Members, with support

provided by the ICAO Secretariat.

8.9

Other participants may, upon request by the TAB, be invited by the ICAO Secretariat to

participate in TAB meetings relating to matters under consideration by the TAB.

Secretariat 8.10

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Items 6, 7 and 8

6C-5

The ICAO Secretariat will:
a) publish general information related to TAB on the ICAO CORSIA website, including the membership, TOR, and the latest timeline of work;
b) provide administrative and logistical support for TAB meetings and business conducted by TAB
c) facilitate all communications between emissions unit programmes and the TAB; and
d) support the preparation of necessary documentation and reports related to TAB.

9. TAB WORK PROGRAMME

9.1

Based on the TOR, TAB will initiate its work by defining its work programme and

timeline, and use as a starting point the CAEP Programme Testing Group's procedures and guidelines for

applying the emissions unit criteria, including as a source of guidance on any specific procedures or

issues not addressed in the TOR.

10. PROGRAMME APPLICATION AND ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS

10.1

The TAB, with the support of the ICAO Secretariat, will issue an open invitation on the

ICAO CORSIA public website, by which emissions unit programmes that wish to be considered for

eligibility in CORSIA can apply. To facilitate the applications by emissions unit programmes, the website

will include an application form and other information that need to be prepared and submitted

electronically to ICAO.

10.2

Once the application process is initiated, the status of applications submitted by emissions

units programmes will be made available on the ICAO CORSIA public website.

11. PUBLIC INFORMATION AND TRANSPARENCY

11.1

Applications and other information submitted by emissions unit programmes will be

publicly available on the ICAO CORSIA website, except for materials which the applicants designate as

business confidential.

11.2

The public will be invited to submit comments on the programmes applications including

regarding their consistency with the emissions units criteria (EUC), through the ICAO CORSIA website,

for consideration by the TAB following its initial assessment of programmes applications.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The ICAO Council's adoption of the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) in 2018 established the requirement that both sustainable aviation fuels and lower carbon aviation fuels need to comply with a set of Sustainability Criteria to be eligible to reduce offsetting obligations under the Scheme.
The First ICAO International Conference on Aviation and Alternative Fuels (CAAF, Rio de Janeiro 2009) recognized the need for a common definition of sustainability requirements at the international level.
The ICAO Assembly, at its 38th session (2013), acknowledged the need for sustainable aviation fuels to be developed and deployed in an economically feasible, socially and environmentally acceptable manner and the need for increased harmonization of the approaches to sustainability.
The 39th Assembly requested States to recognize existing approaches to assess sustainability, which should achieve net GHG emissions reduction, contribute to local social and economic development; competition with food and water should be avoided.
In addition, the Second ICAO International Conference on Aviation and Alternative Fuels (CAAF/2, Mexico City, 2017) recognized that the sustainability of alternative aviation fuels is of essential importance to the efforts of international civil aviation to reduce its CO2 emissions, and that this is ensured by application of sustainability criteria to aviation fuels.
Considering these agreements from the Assembly, the Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection (CAEP) developed a list of 12 Sustainability Principles and Themes with 17 associated Criteria that should be met for a sustainable aviation fuel to generate carbon offset reductions under CORSIA. This list was agreed by CAEP on its 2017 Steering Group meeting (Montreal, Canada, 11 to 15 September 2017), and covers the three aspects of sustainability acknowledged by the ICAO Assembly (environmental, social and economic). CAEP also agreed to the inclusion of specific guidance for assessing compliance with the socio-economic themes (8 to 12), aiming to address concerns of national sovereignty, as well as to address aspects that are beyond the fuel producer control.
This report provides the rationale underlying the CAEP recommendation. For that, a detailed comparison is done with the main approaches in place worldwide to assess sustainability. This analysis supports the conclusion that the list of Sustainability Themes, Principles and Criteria recommended by CAEP builds on existing approaches or combination of approaches to sustainability, including work developed by other UN bodies, fulfilling the ICAO Assembly directive of ensuring the sustainability of aviation fuels.

Appendix A to the Report on Agenda Item 9

CHAPTER 1. HISTORY OF ICAO WORK ON SUSTAINABILITY OF AVIATION FUELS

1.1 ICAO ASSEMBLY RESOLUTIONS AND CONFERENCES
The first reference to alternative fuels in ICAO Assembly Resolutions was registered in its 36th Session (2007), when the Assembly recognized the importance of research and development in fuel efficiency and alternative fuels for aviation that will enable international air transport operations with a lower environmental impact, and encouraged the Council to promote improved understanding of the potential use, and the related emissions impacts, of alternative aviation fuels.
In 2009, ICAO organized the first Conference on Aviation and Alternative Fuels (CAAF), which endorsed the use of sustainable alternative fuels for aviation, particularly the use of drop-in fuels in the short- to mid-term, as an important means of reducing aviation emissions. The Conference also recognized the need for a common definition of sustainability requirements at the international level, and declared that Member States and stakeholders "work together through ICAO and other relevant international bodies, to exchange information and best practices, and in particular to reach a common definition of sustainability requirements for alternative fuels". It also acknowledged that the technology exists to produce substitute, sustainable fuels for aviation that take into consideration the world´s food security, energy and sustainable development needs.
These outcomes were reflected in the ICAO Assembly Resolution A37-18 (2010), which requested the Council to encourage Member States and invite industry to actively participate in further work on sustainable alternative fuels for aviation.
Building on the successful outcomes of the ICAO SUSTAF Workshop (Montréal, 18 20 October 2011) and on the discussions in the third meeting of the 194th Session of the ICAO Council, ICAO created the SUSTAF Expert Group in June 2012 to develop recommendations to further facilitate the global development and deployment of sustainable alternative fuels for aviation, leading up to the 38th Session of the ICAO Assembly. One of the conclusions of this expert group was that States should focus on developing and deploying sustainable alternative fuels for aviation and acknowledge the environmental, social and economic dimensions of sustainability. Similar conclusions were later included in the ICAO Assembly Resolution A38-18 (2013), as follows:
A38-18: Consolidated statement of continuing ICAO policies and practices related to environmental protection -- Climate change
(...)
Acknowledging the need for such fuels to be developed and deployed in an economically feasible, socially and environmentally acceptable manner and the need for increased harmonization of the approaches to sustainability;
(...)
The Assembly:
(...)

32. Requests States to:
j) recognize existing approaches to assess the sustainability of all alternative fuels in general, including those for use in aviation which should:
i. achieve net GHG emissions reduction on a life cycle basis;
ii. respect the areas of high importance for biodiversity, conservation and benefits for people from ecosystems, in accordance with international and national regulations; and
iii. contribute to local social and economic development, and competition with food and water should be avoided;
k) adopt measures to ensure the sustainability of alternative fuels for aviation, building on existing approaches or combination of approaches, and monitor, at a national level, the sustainability of the production of alternative fuels for aviation.
Similar requests related to sustainability of aviation fuels were made by the ICAO Assembly during its 39th Session (2016).
A39-2 Consolidated statement of continuing ICAO policies and practices related to environmental protection -- Climate change
Recognizing that the technological feasibility of drop-in sustainable alternative fuels for aviation is proven and that the introduction of appropriate policies and incentives to create a long-term market perspective is required;
Acknowledging the need for such fuels to be developed and deployed in an economically feasible, socially and environmentally acceptable manner and the progress achieved in the harmonization of the approaches to sustainability;
The Assembly
32. Requests States to:
i) recognize existing approaches to assess the sustainability of all alternative fuels in general, including those for use in aviation which should achieve net GHG emissions reduction on a life cycle basis, contribute to local social and economic development; competition with food and water should be avoided; and
j) adopt measures to ensure the sustainability of alternative fuels for aviation, building on existing approaches or combination of approaches, monitor, at a national level, the sustainability of the production of alternative fuels for aviation, and work together through ICAO and other relevant international bodies, to exchange information and best practices, including for the harmonization on the sustainability criteria of aviation alternative fuels;
In 2017, ICAO organized the second Conference on Aviation and Alternative Fuels (CAAF/2), which recognized that the sustainability of alternative aviation fuels is of essential importance to the efforts of international civil aviation to reduce its CO2 emissions, and that this is ensured by application of sustainability criteria to aviation fuels. The Conference also noted that the introduction of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) may realize economic, social, and environmental advantages that contribute to the vision set out in 13 out of 17 of the United Nations Sustainable

9A-6

Appendix A to the Report on Agenda Item 9

Development Goals (SDGs). Details on the potential contribution of SAFs to the SDGs are available at CAAF/2-WP-12.

1.2 CAEP AND AFTF
In response to the ICAO Assembly Resolution requests, the ICAO Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection (CAEP) established the Alternative Fuels Task Force (AFTF) in 2013 to provide technical support to all aspects of ICAO work on aviation fuels, including sustainability.
During the CAEP/10 cycle (from 2013 to 2016), the CAEP-AFTF developed a scoping exercise for future work on sustainability criteria for aviation fuels1.
Based on this scoping exercise, in the CAEP/11 cycle (2016-2019) CAEP tasked AFTF to develop recommendations on sustainability criteria for alternative fuels in the context of the recognition under the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) . CAEP instructed AFTF to prioritize the development of environmental criteria first, followed by social and economic criteria at a later stage, and planned the work to build as much as possible upon existing sustainability standards and frameworks, which would be analysed and compared in order to develop recommendations for CAEP.
To develop such a task, AFTF set up the "Sustainability Task Group", composed of 72 experts2 nominated by 11 CAEP Member States and seven international organizations.

1.3 THE CAEP APPROACH
In the development of the CAEP approach, the AFTF recommended that ICAO should rely on existing sustainability standards, whether regulatory or voluntary, for the actual sustainability demonstration of alternative fuels as long as: (1) their scope matches with the sustainability criteria agreed upon within ICAO, and (2) their effectiveness has been demonstrated, including how the standards are implemented, verified and monitored.
Certification and conformity of a product, service or system to meet certain requirements is a common approach applied to assess sustainability and recommended by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to promote sustainable growth.
The AFTF refers to this approach as the development of an "umbrella standard" in which a set of sustainability criteria is defined and existing regulatory or voluntary Sustainability Certification Schemes (SCS) can be recognized as a means of compliance if they cover all criteria of the "umbrella standard." Existing SCS covering only part of the "umbrella standard" criteria will require additional certification to comply with the CORSIA sustainability requirements.
Under the current CORSIA framework, SCSs interested in being recognized under CORSIA will need to be approved by the ICAO Council, after being evaluated by a "Fuels Advisory Body" to be created under the auspices of ICAO.
This "umbrella standard" approach is similar to the approach adopted by some regulatory sustainability approaches (e.g. the European Union's Renewable Energy Directive), which
1 CAEP/10-WP/42 2 As of 11/Jun/2018

Appendix A to the Report on Agenda Item 9

9A-7

defines sustainability criteria without specific indicators, which should be developed by the SCS. CAEP agreed to this approach at its 2016 Steering Group meeting and all of the sustainability criteria subsequently agreed to by CAEP and presented to the Council followed this approach.

1.4 CAEP RECOMMENDATION OF SUSTAINABILITY THEMES, PRINCIPLES, CRITERIA AND GUIDANCE
In the course of four meetings and 12 conference calls, AFTF developed a recommended set of 12 Sustainability Themes, Principles and Criteria to be adopted as part of CORSIA requirements for sustainable aviation fuels. To ensure that the proposed sustainably criteria are based on current best practices of sustainability certification, AFTF compared 10 existing approaches to sustainability, with various scopes and formats.
These Sustainability Themes, Principles and Criteria were adjusted by CAEP during its 2017 Steering Group meeting, which also agreed on specific guidance to the application of the socio-economic criteria. With regards to Themes 8, 9 and 10, the guidance aims to address concerns of national sovereignty related to the compliance with these themes. Additionally, the agreed guidance recognizes that Themes 11 and 12 are largely beyond the economic operator's control, and ensures that compliance with them is granted exclusively on the basis of requiring the economic operator to report actions being taken to meet the related criteria, without further judgement of those actions by the SCS.
These recommendations were presented to the ICAO Council during its 212th Session (November, 2017) for consideration, as provided in Table 1. The detailed list of documents presented in CAEP to develop these recommendations is provided in Appendix C.
It is important to note that these recommendations from CAEP did not consider the concept of "CORSIA lower carbon aviation fuels" adopted by the ICAO Council during its 214th Session (June 2018). Further work will be conducted by CAEP to assess the suitability of these sustainability Themes, Principles and Criteria for the "CORSIA eligible fuels" (including "CORSIA lower carbon aviation fuels"), in line with the Council request for CAEP to develop further proposals, at the latest by the end of the pilot phase, on strengthened Sustainability Criteria, including Themes 1 and 2, specifically applicable to CORSIA eligible fuels (C-DEC214/10, 2 i).

CHAPTER 2. EXISTING APPROACHES TO SUSTAINABILITY

2.1 TYPES OF APPROACHES
Ten approaches to sustainability were considered for the development of the 12 CAEP Sustainability Themes and Criteria. They can be grouped as follows:
· Internationally agreed sustainability approaches
This category encompasses approaches that were agreed by international forums. However, differently from CORSIA, these approaches do not include a framework for enforcing compliance with their criteria. They include.
o Food and Agriculture Organization Sustainability Assessment Of Food And Agriculture Systems) (FAO SAFA) (2013) ­ This approach was developed by the FAO to be an international reference for assessing trade-offs and synergies between all dimensions of sustainability. The target audience of a SAFA assessment is economic operators and stakeholders that participate in crop, livestock, forestry, aquaculture and fishery value chains. However, SAFA is also relevant to governments' strategies, policy and planning.
o Global Bioenergy Partnership (GBEP) (2011) - developed by 23 countries and 15 international organizations and institutions including nine UN agencies, the GBEP indicators are intended to provide policy-makers and other stakeholders a set of analytical tools that can inform on the development of national bioenergy policies and programmes and monitor the impact of these policies and programmes. That is, GBEP assessments are meant to be applied at a State or regional level, not at the economic-operator-level required by CORSIA.
o ISO 13065 - Sustainability criteria for bioenergy (2015). The purpose of this International Standard is to provide a framework for considering environmental, social and economic aspects that can be used to facilitate the evaluation and comparability of bioenergy production and products, supply chains and applications. It does not provide threshold values, which can be defined by economic operators and/or other organizations (e.g. governments). Other standards, certification initiatives and government agencies can use this International Standard as a reference for how to provide information regarding sustainability.

· Regulatory sustainability approaches
Sustainability approaches adopted at a national level for the sustainability assessment of economic operators. In the case of the EU RED and United States RFS, these regulatory approaches include requirements not only for the economic operators, but also reporting requirements by the responsible governmental agencies. The compliance verification is either done directly by the respective governments (e.g. ISPO) or by third-parties duly recognized to perform such verification (EU RED and US RFS). These approaches are:
o European Union's Renewable Energy Directive (RED) (2009)
o Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO) (2015)

9A-10

Appendix A to the Report on Agenda Item 9

2.2 STRUCTURE OF SUSTAINABILITY APPROACHES Most of the sustainability approaches considered by CAEP are formatted with three layers of information: Principles, Criteria, and Indicators. These terms are defined by the ISO 13065 as follows:
Principle -- aspirational goal that governs decisions or behavior Criterion -- requirement that describes what is to be assessed.
Note 1: A criterion adds meaning and operability to a principle without itself being a direct measure of performance. Note 2: A criterion is characterized by a set of related indicators. Indicator -- quantitative, qualitative or binary variable that can be measured or described, in response to a defined criterion. Some of the sustainability approaches also include specific guidance on the application of the indicators. Table 2 provides a summary of these elements in the different sustainability approaches.

It should be noted that, while being informative, the number of principles, criteria and indicators does not necessarily represent the comprehensiveness of a specific sustainability approach, since the same topic may be covered differently by the different sustainability approaches. For example, CAEP Principle 3 (Water) covers two GBEP Principles (5 ­ Water use and Efficiency, and 6 ­ Water Quality).
More details on each of these sustainability approaches are provided in Appendix A.

CHAPTER 3. COMPARATIVE ASSESSMENT OF SUSTAINABILITY APPROACHES

3.1 METHODOLOGY USED
Sustainability aspects are considered in different ways by the existing sustainability approaches, due to their different scopes, objectives, and structures. To overcome those differences, the adherence of the Sustainability Approaches to the Sustainability Themes, Principles and Criteria recommended by CAEP was done in a qualitative manner. This qualitative assessment was performed by identifying which elements of the existing Sustainability Approaches are associated with the Themes, Principles and Criteria recommended by CAEP. In some cases, this methodology required the comparison of elements with different scopes and objectives, for example where there are elements that are included as part of the approach as responsibilities of the implementing organization (e.g., government agency), but are not explicit criteria for economic operator qualification. .
The main objective of such a qualitative assessment is to demonstrate that the list of Sustainability Themes, Principles and Criteria recommended by CAEP builds on existing approaches or combination of approaches to sustainability, including work developed by other UN bodies, fulfilling the ICAO Assembly directive of ensuring the sustainability of aviation fuels. It should not be interpreted as a recommendation or endorsement of any particular sustainability approach for the purposes of CORSIA: the current CORSIA framework includes an approval process by the ICAO Council for SCSs to be recognized under CORSIA. This process will include a detailed assessment of the SCSs by a dedicated ICAO body.
The results of this qualitative assessment are provided in this chapter. More detailed background underlying the assessment is provided in Appendix B.

3.2 ASSESSMENT OF SUSTAINABILITY PRINCIPLES

CHAPTER 4. CONCLUSIONS
The need for a common definition of sustainability requirements at the international level applicable to alternative fuels has been an ICAO concern and request since the potential of those fuels to reduce international aviation effects on climate change was identified.
ICAO Assembly resolutions have called to ensure the sustainability of alternative fuels for aviation, and for the harmonization of approaches to sustainability building up on existing approaches or combination of approaches,
In addition to achieving net GHG emissions reductions, the 38th and 39th Assemblies agreed that to be sustainable, aviation alternative fuels should also contribute to local social and economic development, and that competition with food and water should be avoided.
The adoption of ICAO CORSIA SARPs in 2018 established the need to define Sustainability Criteria for the specific purpose of CORSIA compliance for certain fuels to be eligible under the Scheme to reduce offsetting obligations.
Considering these agreements from the Assembly and ICAO Conferences, the Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection (CAEP) developed a list of 12 Sustainability Themes and Principles, and 17 associated Criteria that should be met for an aviation fuel to generate carbon offset reductions under CORSIA. This list was agreed by CAEP during its 2017 Steering Group meeting (Montreal, Canada, 11 to 15 September 2017), and only considered sustainable aviation fuels.
The analysis presented in this report supports the conclusion that the list of 12 Sustainability Themes and Principles, and the 17 associated Criteria recommended by CAEP builds on existing global approaches or combination of approaches to Sustainability, including work developed by other UN bodies, which comprises:
 Internationally-agreed sustainability approaches developed by: the UN FAO, the Global Bioenergy Partnership (which comprises 52 countries and 28 international organizations including 9 UN bodies) and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
 Regulatory sustainability approaches developed by the EU, Indonesia, and the United States.
 Voluntary global sustainability certification schemes currently widely used in bioenergy production.
A comparative analysis of the sustainability themes, principles and criteria included on those global approaches show that the recommended list of 12 Sustainability Themes and Principles, and the 17 associated Criteria, for the purpose of its application in CORSIA, fulfil the ICAO Assembly directive of ensuring the sustainability of aviation fuels while building upon a combination of existing global approaches to sustainability. As part of the CORSIA framework, an approval of the ICAO Council is required for the recognition of any sustainability approach under CORSIA.

APPENDIX A ­ SUSTAINABILITY APPROACHES CONSIDERED BY CAEP

A.1 FAO SAFA
SAFA is a holistic global framework developed by the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) for the assessment of sustainability along food and agriculture value chains. SAFA establishes an international reference for assessing trade-offs and synergies between all dimensions of sustainability. It has been prepared so that enterprises, whether companies or small-scale producers, involved with the production, processing, distribution and marketing of goods have a clear understanding of the constituent components of sustainability and how strength, weakness and progress could be tackled. By providing a transparent and aggregated framework for assessing sustainability, SAFA seeks to harmonize sustainability approaches within the food value chain, as well as furthering good practices.
The SAFA provide the protocol for assessing sustainability along 21 themes and 58 sub-themes, and 118 default indicators, which are applicable at the macro level ­ meaning to all enterprise sizes and types, and in all contexts. Specific guidelines are also provided, together with a computational tool and mobile app that assist users in their implementation.
Reference: http://www.fao.org/nr/sustainability/sustainability-assessments-safa/en/

A.2 GBEP (FAO)
The Global Bioenergy Partnership (GBEP) was created in 2006 with the mission to promote the wider production and use of modern bioenergy, particularly in the developing world where traditional use of biomass is prevalent. GBEP includes 23 Partner countries and 15 Partner international organizations and institutions (9 UN bodies among them), along with 29 countries and 13 international organizations that participate as Observers. It is supported by the GBEP Secretariat, hosted at FAO Headquarters in Rome.
In 2011, GBEP published the first edition of "The Global Bioenergy Partnership Sustainability Indicators for Bioenergy". This report includes 24 sustainability indicators for bioenergy and their methodology sheets, which were intended to provide policy-makers and other stakeholders with a tool that can inform on the development of national bioenergy policies and programmes, monitor the impact of these policies and programmes, as well as interpret and respond to the environmental, social and economic impacts of their bioenergy production and use.
It should be highlighted that GBEP indicators are value-neutral, do not feature directions, thresholds or limits and do not constitute a standard, nor are they legally binding. The "GBEP indicators" can be correlated with the "Principles" and "Indicators" from other sustainability approaches. These indicators are intended to inform on policy-making and facilitate the sustainable development of bioenergy.
Although being considered by CAEP, especially for the identification of themes, it should be noted that the GBEP approach is not in line with the CAEP needs for sustainability certification, since its scope is just to evaluate State´s bioenergy policies, and not specific project-scale performance.

A.3 ISO 13065
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was officially established in 1947 in order to "facilitate the international coordination and unification of industrial standards". The 22,236 International Standards published by ISO to date cover various aspects of technology and manufacturing. As of 2018, ISO includes 783 technical committees and subcommittees, made up of members from 160 States. The organization is supported by the ISO Central Secretariat, based in Geneva, Switzerland.
In 2015, ISO published the first edition of "ISO 13065: Sustainability criteria for bioenergy". This standard includes general requirements and recommendations, 12 sustainability Principles with associated Criteria and Indicators, and informative guidance related to several of the indicators. This Standard provides a framework for considering environmental, social and economic factors, and can be used to evaluate bioenergy production and products, supply chains, and applications. The Standard indicates that it was developed with due consideration to existing relevant sustainability initiatives and International Standards.

A.4 EU RED
The European Union's Renewable Energy Directive (RED) was established by the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union in 2009. This Directive established a policy for the production and promotion of renewable energy throughout the EU. The EU RED mandated that 20% of the EU's total energy needs are to be met with renewables by 2020, and established individual targets for each EU member state. It also mandated that 10% of each EU member state's transport fuels must come from renewable sources by 2020.
The EU RED includes requirements related to 8 of the CAEP-proposed sustainability criteria. These requirements can be found in Article 17, "Sustainability criteria for biofuels and bioliquids" and Article 18, "Verification of compliance with the sustainability criteria for biofuels and bioliquids".

A.5 ISPO
The Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO) policy was established by the Government of Indonesia in the interest of improving the competitiveness of Indonesian palm oil in the global market, while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The most recent version of the policy was published in 2015. It includes five separate annexes that detail the regulations relevant for various types of producers and manufacturers. The Annexes used for comparison within this document were Annex II, III and IV which apply to plantation companies and mills, while

9A-18

Appendix A to the Report on Agenda Item 9

annexes V and VI apply to smallholders. As the regulation is published in the Indonesian language, for the purpose of this work a courtesy translated version provided by the Government was used.

A.6 US RFS2
The United States' Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) Program was created by the U.S. Congress in an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while encouraging the development of renewable fuels. The RFS was first created under the Energy Policy Act of 2005. It was largely amended by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (RFS2). The RFS is implemented by the Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) in cooperation with the Department of Agriculture and the Department of Energy. The RFS mandates a "volume of renewable fuel to replace or reduce the quantity of petroleum-based transportation fuel, heating oil or jet fuel". Fuel pathways (based on feedstock, production process, and fuel type) are approved for RFS inclusion based on GHG intensity, as well as other sustainability criteria. The applicable regulations are found at 40 CFR Part 80, Subpart M.

A.7 BONSUCRO
Bonsucro is a global multi-stakeholder non-for-profit initiative that provides voluntary sustainability certification for the sugarcane industry. The Bonsucro Production Standard can be applied worldwide to any sugarcane mill and their suppliers. It was first established in 2005 and has since grown to include over 480 members, representing 25% of land used for sugarcane production. The organization is supported by the Bonsucro Secretariat, based in London, England.
The most recent version of the Bonsucro Production Standard is Version 4.2, published in 2016. This version included updates that align Bonsucro with the requirements of EU RED, and covers three pillars of sustainability: economic, social and environmental viability. The document defines "a set of principles, criteria and indicators, along with explanatory notes, for the assessment of the performance of operators against the three pillars of sustainability". It was developed alongside a document titled "Guidance for the Bonsucro Production Standard" which provides further support for compliance with the Bonsucro Production Standard.

A.8 ISCC
The International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) is an independent multistakeholder organisation providing sustainability certification for various raw materials and products around the world. The ISCC certification system is applicable to entire supply chains,

Appendix A to the Report on Agenda Item 9

9A-19

including all feedstock types. The ISCC Association (ISCC e.V.), the governing body of the ISCC, is based in Cologne, Germany.
The ISCC requirements used for comparison with the CAEP-proposed sustainability criteria are those within ISCC Plus. ISCC Plus includes sets of sustainability add-ons, which can be implemented on top of the requirements set in the standard. The latest version of ISCC Plus is ISCC202, "Sustainability Requirements for the Production of Biomass," published in 2016. These requirements include 6 overarching sustainability principles and corresponding detailed criteria for the production of sustainable biomass.

A.9 RSB
The Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials (RSB) is an independent multi-stakeholder coalition providing sustainability certification around the world. The RSB has members from 60 organizations, including businesses, NGOs, academics, government and UN organisations. The RSB is supported by its Secretariat, based in Geneva, Switzerland.
The most recent version of the RSB's Principles and Criteria (Version 3.0) was published in 2016. The document includes the RSB's 12 overarching principles for sustainability, which are further elaborated into specific criteria and minimum requirements (e.g. indicators). The RSB has also published a series of standards, procedures and guidance documents, to complement the Principles & Criteria. Together, these documents represent the RSB Standard.

A.10 RSPO
The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) is a not-for-profit organization that includes stakeholders from the entire palm oil supply chain. It was formally established in 2004, and has since grown to include over 3,000 members worldwide. RSPO aims to promote the production and use of sustainably derived palm oil. As of 2017, over 19% of the world's palm oil production was certified by the RSPO. The RSPO is supported by the RSPO Secretariat, headquartered in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The RSPO requirements used for comparison with the CAEP-proposed sustainability criteria are those within RSPO P&C 2013, "Audit Checklist for assessing compliance". This standard includes 8 overarching sustainability principles, which are further elaborated into a series of criteria and indicators. Each indicator has a set of questions included as a checklist, and some indicators include additional guidance information.

CORSIA SUSTAINABILITY CRITERIA FOR CORSIA ELIGIBLE FUELS

Theme

Principle

Criteria

1. Greenhouse Gases (GHG)
2. Carbon stock

Principle: CORSIA eligible fuel should generate lower carbon emissions on a life cycle basis.
Principle: CORSIA eligible fuel should not be made from biomass obtained from land with high carbon stock.

Criterion 1: CORSIA eligible fuel shall achieve net greenhouse gas emissions reductions of at least 10% compared to the baseline life cycle emissions values for aviation fuel on a life cycle basis.
Criterion 1: CORSIA eligible fuel shall not be made from biomass obtained from land converted after 1 January 2008 that was primary forest, wetlands, or peat lands and/or contributes to degradation of the carbon stock in primary forests, wetlands, or peat lands as these lands all have high carbon stocks.
Criterion 2: In the event of land use conversion after 1 January 2008, as defined based on IPCC land categories, direct land use change (DLUC) emissions shall be calculated. If DLUC greenhouse gas emissions exceed the default induced land use change (ILUC) value, the DLUC value shall replace the default ILUC value.

2.1 Guidance on the application of sustainability criteria a) Compliance with Themes 1 and 2 is granted on the basis of independent attestation by CORSIA approved Sustainability Certification Schemes; b) Work on other themes such as Water; Soil; Air; Conservation; Waste and Chemicals; Human and labour rights; Land use rights and land use; Water use rights; Local and social development; and Food security, and related criteria, and on the application of these criteria, is ongoing under the Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection (CAEP) and will be subject to approval by the Council by the end of the pilot phase; c) CORSIA Sustainability Criteria for CORSIA Eligible Fuels does not set a precedent for, or prejudge the outcome of negotiations in other fora.

have experience with ICAO processes, in particular those related to CORSIA.

4.3

The collective membership of the CAEP SCSEG should cover all of the areas of

expertise provided in Section 4.1.

5. MEMBERSHIP

Nomination of CAEP SCSEG members

5.1

In principle, the size of the SCSEG should be in the order of 14 to 16 experts, nominated

by CAEP Members, taking into account the need for balanced geographical representation.

5.2

Nomination is to be made through the submission of a letter (or an email) to the CAEP

Secretary, highlighting the areas of expertise and experience of the proposed expert, including a personal

conflict of interest declaration and a statement of commitment by the proposed expert to the work of

CAEP SCSEG for at least one full CORSIA compliance cycle (i.e., 3 years). Nominations would be

considered for approval by CAEP.

The CAEP SCSEG selects two co-Chairpersons from among its members at its first

5.4

The co-Chairpersons should not be from the same geographical region.

Replacement of CAEP SCSEG Members during a CORSIA compliance cycle

5.5

The replacement of an existing CAEP SCSEG Member during a compliance cycle of the

CORSIA is allowed, if the replacement member is approved by CAEP (through correspondence).

5.6

The replacement must meet the same criteria as outlined in the TOR.

5.7

The outgoing member's nominating CAEP Member should first be allowed to nominate

a replacement.

5.7.1

If a replacement is not nominated by that CAEP Member or should CAEP reject the

nominated replacement, the CAEP Secretary would then seek nominations from CAEP Members of the

outgoing member's geographic region.

5.7.2

If a replacement is not nominated by CAEP Members from that geographical region or

should CAEP reject the nominated replacement(s), the CAEP Secretary would then seek nominations

from all CAEP Members.

5.7.3

Where possible, the replacement of CAEP SCSEG Members should be staggered over

CORSIA compliance cycles to ensure continuity of knowledge and expertise.

6. AVOIDANCE OF CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

6.1

As a part of the nomination process, SCSEG nominees will have to present a personal

declaration about potential conflicts of interest assessed/validated by the proposing CAEP Member.

SCSEG Members should not benefit materially from decisions made by the SCSEG. This could include

employment by or having financial and/or commercial interest in any SCS or an economic actor along the

fuel supply chain that would benefit from the expert's appointment. This has to be substantiated at the

time of nomination, through a personal declaration.

7. WORKING METHODS

Modality and frequency of SCSEG meetings

7.1

Face-to-face meetings of the CAEP SCSEG are the primary means of organizing its

work, making significant decisions and resolving substantive issues.

7.2

The CAEP SCSEG is also expected to conduct business via teleconferences and emails

between the face-to-face meetings to progress the work.

7.3

The CAEP SCSEG will discuss and agree on a schedule of meetings, which can be

reviewed later as necessary. The number of meetings should be sufficient to achieve its deliverables.

9C-4

Appendix C to the Report on Agenda Item 9

CORSIA ELIGIBILITY FRAMEWORK AND REQUIREMENTS FOR SUSTAINABILITY CERTIFICATION SCHEMES
1. Definitions:
Accreditation bodies: authoritative bodies that perform accreditation (ISO 17011). Accreditation: a third-party attestation related to a certification body conveying formal demonstration of its competence to carry out specific conformity assessment tasks (adapted from ISO 17011). Auditors: Auditors plan, conduct and complete audits on behalf of the certification body. Responsibilities include designing risk-based audit and evidence-gathering plans, designing sampling procedures, evaluating the adequacy and sufficiency of evidence of compliance, identifying nonconformities, issuing a recommendation for or against certification and preparing an audit report. Audits: systematic, independent and documented processes for obtaining audit evidence and evaluating it objectively to determine the extent to which the audit criteria are fulfilled (adapted from ISO 19011:2011). Certification bodies: third-party conformity assessment bodies (ISO 17065:2012) making certification decisions and issuing certificates. Economic operator: Economic operators include feedstock producers, processing facilities, and traders. Stakeholder: individual or group that has an interest in any decision or activity of an organization (adapted from ISO 26000). Sustainability Certification Schemes (SCS): organizations that certify economic operators against the sustainability criteria, and ensure that economic operators calculate actual life cycle emissions values (if default values are not applied) using the agreed methodology. SCS define sustainability certification requirements, set requirements for certification bodies, auditors and accreditation bodies, and monitor effectiveness of the assurance mechanism.

THEME

REQUIREMENTS

1) Accreditation  SCS requires certification bodies to be accredited to ISO standard 17065 by an

and Auditing

accreditation body operating in compliance with ISO 17011.

Standards

 SCS requires that certification bodies are accredited in accordance with Table 1,

Requirement 9.

 SCS requires certification bodies to inform the SCS immediately if the accreditation is

suspended, withdrawn or terminated by the accreditation body.

 SCS requires that certification bodies conduct assessments of GHG LCA values in line

2) Audits

 The SCS requires that certification bodies being recognized within its CORSIA certification programme, apply the audit objectives to meet CORSIA certification requirements (Table 2, Requirement 3) .
 Initial audits should be performed on-site.  SCS may permit remote audits by the certification body under the following conditions:
 The audit risk as assessed by the certification body is low.  The same level of assurance can be achieved with remote audits as with on-site
audits.  Sufficient traceability (mass balance) records, greenhouse gas data and other forms
of appropriate evidence are available.  The systems in place for collecting and processing traceability and greenhouse gas
data and ensuring data quality are reliable.  It is the responsibility of the certification body to define the size of the sample of mass
balance or GHG data to audit in consideration of the audit risk and the required level of assurance (see Table 5, Requirement 7).

3) Transfer from  Prior to re-certification of an economic operator that was previously found to be in

one SCS to

major non-conformity with any other SCS, the certification body will be required to

another

bring this to the attention of the SCS.

following conditions:

applicable)

 For the following economic operators: producers of raw material, points of origin in

the case of waste and residue supply chains, and warehouses or storage facilities

under common management.

 When confirming compliance with the CORSIA sustainability criteria when the

areas concerned are near each other and have similar characteristics.

 For the purpose of assessing the accuracy of the claimed LCA value when the units

have similar production systems and products.

 A sample of at least the square root of the number of group members is audited

individually annually or, for wastes and residues, using a risk-based sampling

approach providing the same level of assurance.

 Self-declarations from economic operators are not accepted by the certification

body as sufficient evidence to replace audits supporting a group claim.

 A group value for actual GHG LCA would be permitted as long as the SCS sets the

guidelines for how this should be determined.

 If the conditions for group auditing are not fulfilled, economic operators are audited

individually.

6) Auditor

 SCS requires that certification bodies appoint competent auditor(s), in accordance with

competencies

Appendix F to the Report on Agenda Item 9

2. CORSIA Methodology for Calculating Actual Life Cycle Emissions Values
An Aeroplane Operator seeking benefits from the use of CEF in terms of reductions in CORSIA CO2 offsetting requirements will have to provide documentation to their State on the life cycle emissions values (LSf) and sustainability. An Aeroplane Operator will need to work with an CEF supplier to obtain this information.
1. An Aeroplane Operator may use an actual core life cycle value ­ described in paragraphs 3 and 6 ­ as part of an accepted fuel sustainability certification process if a fuel producer can demonstrate lower core life cycle emissions compared to the default core life cycle values provided in the ICAO Document entitled "CORSIA Default Life Cycle Emissions Values for CORSIA Eligible Fuels", or if a fuel producer has defined a new pathway that does not have a default core life cycle value. If the Aeroplane Operator chooses to use an actual core life cycle value, then the Aeroplane Operator shall select an eligible Sustainability Certification Scheme from the ICAO Document entitled "CORSIA Approved Sustainability Certification Schemes" to ensure the analysis is in accordance to the LCA methodology defined below. The results of the actual core life cycle value analysis shall be added to the appropriate ILUC value from the ICAO Document entitled "CORSIA Default Life Cycle Emissions Values for CORSIA Eligible Fuels" to calculate the total Life Cycle Emissions Value (LSf). The SCS shall ensure that the methodology has been applied correctly and that relevant information on GHG emissions is transmitted through the chain of custody. SCS shall record detailed information about the calculation of actual values within their system and provide this information to ICAO on request.
2. If a fuel was produced from a feedstock that is defined as a waste, residue, or by-product according to Section 4, then the actual core LCA value shall be the total LSf. If the feedstock is not a waste, residue, or by-product, then a default core LCA value and an ILUC value will need to be added to the ICAO Document entitled "CORSIA Default Life Cycle Emissions Values for CORSIA Eligible Fuels" before the fuel can be included in CORSIA.

NOTE: Information on how fuels can be added to the ICAO Document entitled "CORSIA Default Life Cycle Emissions Values for CORSIA Eligible Fuels can be found in the "LCA Methodology Supporting Document".
3. The system boundary of the core LCA value calculation shall include the full supply chain of CEF production and use. As such, emissions associated with the following life cycle stages of the CEF supply chain must be accounted for: (1) production at source (e.g., feedstock cultivation); (2) conditioning at source (e.g., feedstock harvesting, collection, and recovery); (3) feedstock processing and extraction; (4) feedstock transportation to processing and fuel production facilities; (5) feedstock-to-fuel conversion processes; (6) fuel transportation and distribution to the blend point; and (7) fuel combustion in an aircraft engine.

4. For life cycle stages 1-6 described in Paragraph 3, carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions of CH4, N2O and non-biogenic CO2 from these activities shall be calculated on the basis of 100year global warming potential (GWP). CO2e values for CH4 and N2O shall be based on the Fifth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (28 and 265, respectively). Only non-biogenic CO2 emissions from fuel combustion shall be included in the calculation of CO2e emissions.
5. The functional unit for final LSf results shall be grams of CO2e per megajoule of fuel produced and combusted in an aircraft engine, in terms of lower heating value (gCO2e/MJ).
6. The calculated LSf values shall include emissions generated during on-going operational

Appendix F to the Report on Agenda Item 9

9F-3

activities (e.g., operation of a fuel production facility, feedstock cultivation), as well as emissions associated with the material and utility inputs to operational activities, such as processing chemicals, electricity, and natural gas. Emissions generated during one-time construction or manufacturing activities (e.g., fuel production facility construction, equipment manufacturing) shall not be included.

7. In many cases, the CEF supply chain of interest will result in the co-production of multiple commodities. These co-products may include non-CEF liquid fuels, chemicals, electricity, steam, hydrogen, and/or animal feed. Energy allocation shall be used to assign emissions burdens to all co-products in proportion to their contribution to the total energy content (measured as lower heating value) of the products and co-products. CO2e emissions shall not be allocated to waste, residues and by-products that result from the CEF supply chain of interest.

8. CEF feedstocks can be broadly categorized into three groups - primary or co-products, by-products, and wastes and residues. Further information on how feedstocks are categorized into these group for the purposes of CORSIA can be found in Section 4.

9. Feedstocks that are "low risk" for land use change have been identified and assigned as having zero emissions from land use change. The low land use change risk feedstock list includes: (1) feedstocks that do not result in expansion of global agricultural land use for their production; (2) wastes, residues, and by-products (see Section 4); and (3) feedstocks that have yields per surface unit significantly higher than terrestrial crops (~ one order of magnitude higher) such as some algal feedstocks. The feedstocks in these three categories shall all receive an ILUC value of zero in the fourth column of the table in the ICAO Document "CORSIA Default Life Cycle Emissions Values for CORSIA Eligible Fuels".

10. Aeroplane Operators may choose to capture the benefits of utilizing land use change-risk mitigation practices, (e.g., land management practices) to avoid ILUC emissions as part of an accepted fuel sustainability certification process (see the ICAO Document "CORSIA Eligibility Framework and Requirements for Sustainability Certification Schemes"). Mitigation practices that avoid ILUC emissions and the requirements that shall be met to obtain these reductions can be found in Section 5. The ILUC value of zero shall be used in place of the default ILUC value to calculate total LSf. If the Aeroplane Operator chooses to claim emissions reductions from the implementation of land use change-risk mitigation practices, then the Aeroplane Operator shall select an eligible Sustainability Certification Scheme from the ICAO document "CORSIA Approved Sustainability Certification Schemes" to provide documentation that the fuel was produced using land use change-risk mitigation practices according to Section 5.

11. Waste, residue, and by-product feedstocks are assumed to incur zero emissions during the feedstock production step of the lifecycle. Emissions generated during the collection, recovery, extraction, and processing of these wastes, residues, and by-products, however, shall be included (life cycle stages 2-7 described in paragraph 3).

12. The production of SAF from wastes and residues, as defined in Section 4 (Feedstock Categories section of the CORSIA Methodology for Calculating Actual Life Cycle Emissions Values), may generate emission credits that can be subtracted from the actual LCA values to calculate total LSf. If the Aeroplane Operator chooses to use a SAF that would generate such an emission credit, then the Aeroplane Operator shall select an eligible Sustainability Certification Scheme from the CORSIA ICAO Document "CORSIA Approved Sustainability Certification Schemes" to ensure the calculation of emission credits is in accordance with the specific methodologies

9F-4

defined in this document, as follows.

o Avoided Landfill Emissions Credit (LEC) for SAF derived from Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) ­ Section 6.1
o Recycling Emissions Credit (REC) for SAF derived from Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) ­ Section 6.2
The analysis to calculate these emission credits values shall be documented in a technical report citing fully the data sources, such that the results are replicable and use the most recent data available. The technical report must also demonstrate that the emission credits claimed are permanent; directly attributable to the SAF production; exceed any emissions reductions required by law, regulation or legally binding mandate; avoid double counting (including double issuance3 or double claiming4) of such credits; and exceed emissions reductions that would otherwise occur in a business-as-usual scenario.
During the pilot phase of CORSIA, and until additional requirements and guidance have been developed to (a) ensure that emission credits for SAF generated under CORSIA are of an equivalent quality and quantity to emission units and (b) resolve concerns regarding double counting, after the subtraction of the LEC and/or REC applicable to a SAF, the total LSf value cannot be smaller than 0 gCO2e/MJ.

3. Technical Report Requirements
3.1 Reporting Requirements
The SCS will require economic operators to document all relevant data appropriately in a Technical Report, which is verified by an accredited certification body. Upon request, the economic operator will submit the technical report to the SCS and on request, the SCS will submit the report to ICAO.
Relevant data include:
a) GHG emissions by life cycle step within the scope of certification, broken out by GHG emission species and aggregated in CO2e (100 year GWP). With regard to the life cycle steps, Section 2, Paragraph 3 of the ICAO Document "CORSIA Methodology for Calculating Actual Life Cycle Emissions Values" states: "The system boundary of the core LCA value calculation shall include the full supply chain of SAF production and use. As such, emissions associated with the following life cycle stages of the SAF supply chain must be accounted for: (1) production at source (e.g., feedstock cultivation); (2) conditioning at source (e.g., feedstock harvesting, collection, and recovery); (3) feedstock processing and extraction; (4) feedstock transportation to processing and fuel production facilities; (5) feedstock-tofuel conversion processes; (6) fuel transportation and distribution to the blend point; and (7) fuel combustion in an aircraft engine."
b) The LCA inventory data by life cycle step within the scope of certification, including all energy and material inputs. For life cycle steps 1-4, the inventory data are to be

Appendix F to the Report on Agenda Item 9

9F-5

provided per mass of feedstock, for the other steps per total fuel energy yield (MJ of fuel).
c) Emission factors used for calculating GHG emissions associated with energy and material inputs, including information about the source for the emission factors.
d) All relevant feedstock characteristics within the scope of certification, such as, for example, agricultural yield, lower heating value, moisture content, the content of sugar, starch, cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, vegetable oil, or any other energy carrier (as applicable to feedstock of interest).
e) Quantities for all final and intermediate products, per total energy yield.
f) If Municipal Solid Waste is being used as a feedstock, then all relevant data required for the calculation of landfill emissions credits and recycling emissions credit will be disclosed according to the MSW crediting methodology in Section 6 on "Emissions Credits."
g) In case a low LUC risk practice is being used, all relevant data required for the calculation and certification will be disclosed according to the Low LUC Risk Practices methodology.

The SCS will report evidence that the certification body has verified that the economic operator has accurately followed the methodology specified in the ICAO Document "CORSIA Methodology for Calculating Actual Life Cycle Emissions Values" to calculate its actual LCA value using the most recent and scientifically rigorous data available, and that the LCA value calculation is complete, accurate and transparent.

The SCS will report information on chain of custody system employed.

Data will be recorded and reported to ICAO upon request in a format conducive to re-calculation and verification, for example as a spreadsheet in .csv or .txt file format.

3.2 Flow Of Information Along The Supply Chain For Actual LCA Values

Each economic operator along the supply chain will implement a robust and transparent system to track the flow of data outlined in Section 2, Paragraph 3 of the ICAO Document "CORSIA Methodology for Calculating Actual Life Cycle Emissions Values" along the supply chain ("chain of custody system").

Tracking will occur each time the feedstock or fuel passes through an internal processing step or changes ownership along the supply chain.

The SCS will implement procedures that allow verification that the economic operator has used an appropriate chain of custody system.

4. Feedstock Categories

Primary and co- products are the main products of a production process. These products have significant economic value and elastic supply, (i.e., there is evidence that there is a causal link between feedstock prices and the quantity of feedstock being produced).

By-products are secondary products with inelastic supply and economic value.

9F-6

Appendix F to the Report on Agenda Item 9

Wastes are materials with inelastic supply and no economic value. A waste is any substance or object which the holder discards or intends or is required to discard. Raw materials or substances that have been intentionally modified or contaminated to meet this definition are not covered by this definition.

Residues are secondary materials with inelastic supply and little economic value. Residues include:
a) Agricultural, aquaculture, fisheries and forestry residues: Residues directly deriving from or generated by agriculture, aquaculture, fisheries and forestry.
b) Processing residues: A substance that is not the end product that a production process directly seeks to produce; the production of the residue or substance is not the primary aim of the production process and the process has not been deliberately modified to produce it.

The positive list provided in Table 1 includes feedstocks that have been classified as by-product, wastes and residues. It has been arrived at considering a broad range of publicly-available regulatory and voluntary approaches.

The positive list is non-exhaustive. It includes materials currently in use or in discussion to be used for sustainable aviation fuel.

The classification of specific feedstocks as by-products is subject to later revisions as part of the regular CORSIA review process in case there is strong scientific evidence showing that significant indirect effects could be associated to these feedstocks.

Residues Agricultural residues:
- Bagasse - Cobs - Stover - Husks - Manure - Nut shells - Stalks - Straw Forestry residues: - Bark - Branches - Cutter shavings - Leaves - Needles - Pre- commercial thinnings - Slash - Tree tops Processing residues: - Crude glycerine

- Forestry processing residues - Empty palm fruit bunches - Palm oil mill effluent - Sewage sludge - Crude Tall Oil - Tall oil pitch Wastes - Municipal solid waste - Used cooking oil By-products - Palm Fatty Acid Distillate - Tallow - Technical corn oil

Table 1: Positive lists of materials classified as residues, wastes or by-products
The positive list is an open list. The ICAO Council can add materials to it, according to the definitions of feedstocks above and using the process shown in Figure 1 as a guide:

5. Low LUC Risk Practices
For the purposes of CORSIA, using certain types of land, land management practices (LMP), and the incorporation of innovative agricultural practices could all be considered as contributing to low risk for land use change and therefore receive a value of zero for ILUC. The implementation of these low LUC risk practices for a project should avoid market mediated responses that lead to changes in land use, and lead to additional SAF feedstock available relative to a baseline, without increasing land requirements.

SCS with a methodology consistent with the principles and criteria listed below could be authorized by the ICAO Council to assess the implementation of low LUC risk practices and certify their low LUC risk status on a case-by-case, project-specific basis. The methodology must be open, documented, and publicly communicated. Feedstocks designated under the Low LUC Risk Practices approach during the CORSIA pilot phase are designated as such until 2030, subject to periodic audits to ensure ongoing compliance with the original requirements when the feedstocks were certified by the SCS.

In all cases, this methodology should consider that, for a specific project to be eligible for recognition as a low LUC risk practice, the practice must be verified as a net enhancement in SAF feedstock available per unit of land.

There are two approaches for low LUC risk SAF feedstock production:

a) Yield Increase Approach.

b) Unused Land Approach.

Low LUC risk practices implemented on or after 1 January 2016 could be eligible. The feedstock producer needs to provide credible and verifiable evidence of the nature of the new land management practice, timing of its implementation and level of additional feedstock production. Exceptionally, practices implemented between 1 January 2013 to 31 December 2015 may be accepted where it can be demonstrated that low LUC risk practices were implemented primarily as a result of demand for biofuels. This would have to be demonstrated on a project-specific basis.

This methodology is applicable during the pilot phase of CORSIA only.

5.1 Yield Increase Approach

Eligible land management practices for the yield increase approach could include, among others, sequential cropping where more than one crop is planted per year, cover crops, the use of fallow land in a prescribed crop rotation, significant post-harvest loss reduction, and significant project level productivity increases due to the introduction of good practices and technology.

The Yield Increase approach applies to any situation where feedstock producers are able to increase the amount of available feedstock out of a fixed area of land (i.e. without expanding the surface of the land). An increase in the harvested feedstock may be the result of:

a) An improvement in agricultural practices, (practices that increase yields through means such as increased organic matter content, reduced soil compaction/erosion, decreased pests, post-harvest loss reduction, etc.);

b) Intercropping, (i.e. the combination of two or more crops that grow simultaneously, for example as hedges or through an agroforestry system);

Appendix F to the Report on Agenda Item 9

9F-9

c) Sequential cropping, (i.e. the combination of two or more crops that grow at different periods of the year); and/or

d) Improvements in post-harvest losses, (i.e. losses that occur at cultivation and transport up to but not including the first conversion unit in the supply chain).

If there is a decrease of the available feedstock for the food or feed market at the project level resulting from the LMP (e.g., reduced yield from the main crop) this should be accounted for in calculating the volume of low LUC risk SAF feedstock (i.e., the volume of low LUC risk SAF feedstock represents the net increase in feedstock after accounting for any reduction in production of the primary food/feed crop that had been grown historically).

Measurements of yield increases and post-harvest loss reduction relative to a baseline are calculated based on historical practices using the annual yield per unit of land based on data from the preceding 5 years before the LMP measure takes effect from similar producers within the same region for the duration of the LMP measure. The low LUC risk feedstock thus represents additional feedstock obtained as a consequence of the improvement relative to the baseline.

The amount of additional feedstock available and considered eligible for low LUC risk feedstock is calculated as follows:

1) The average amount of feedstock available historically, from similar producers within the same region, is calculated based on actual net feedstock production (i.e., amount harvested less post- harvest losses) in the five years before the LMP measure takes effect. Similar producers can be defined as producers growing the same (or equivalent) crops and using a similar management model (e.g., smallholder, small or large scale plantation).

2) The amount of feedstock available as a consequence of the LMP is calculated based on the current/new net feedstock production (amount harvested less post-harvest losses) that is attributable to the adoption of the new LMP measure.

3) The additional low LUC risk feedstock represents the difference between the values calculated via the two previous steps.

5.2 Unused Land Approach:

Eligible lands for the unused land approach could include, among others, marginal lands, underused lands, unused lands, degraded pasture lands, and lands in need of remediation.

For a land to be eligible for the unused land approach, it needs to meet one of the following criteria:

a) Land was not considered to be arable land or used for crop production during the five years preceding the reference date.

b) Land is identified as severely degraded land or undergoing a severe degradation process for at least three years, according to criteria proposed by a Sustainability Certification Scheme recognized under CORSIA, where the criteria are based on scientific literature.

9F-10

Appendix F to the Report on Agenda Item 9

For a land to be eligible for the unused land approach, it also needs to have little risk for displacement of services from that land onto different and equivalent amounts of land elsewhere. Note: services refer to products obtained from ecosystems such as food, animal feed, or bioenergy feedstocks.

The amount of feedstock considered eligible for low LUC risk feedstock is equal to the amount of feedstock harvested for SAF production.

6. Emissions Credits

6.1 Methodology for Calculation of Landfill Emissions Credits

SAF produced from Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) feedstocks may generate an avoided Landfill Emissions Credit (LEC). The value of the LEC shall be calculated as follows:

Step 1 ­ Estimate the proportional shares of each of the following four waste categories (j) that make up the MSW diverted from landfilling: paper/textiles; wood/straw; other (non-food) organic putrescible/garden and park waste; and food waste/sewage sludge. These shares should be expressed in terms of the dry mass of each waste category (j) per dry mass of MSW diverted from landfilling (before additional sorting and recycling, if applicable) (eg. Wpaper/textiles = 0.4 dry tonne per dry tonne of MSW).
Step 2 ­ Select the degradable organic carbon content (DOC) and the fraction of carbon dissimilated (DOCF) values from Table 2 that best represent each waste category (j) in the MSW. Use weighted averages to generate DOC and DOCF values that accurately represent each of the four waste categories of the MSW feedstock of interest.

Step 4 ­ Use Equation 1 to calculate total CH4 generation, Q, from each waste category, j, per dry tonne of diverted MSW.

Equation 1: Total CH4 generation from waste category j, per dry tonne of diverted MSW [g CH4 / t dry diverted MSW]

where:
Qj Wj DOC DOCF F MCF 16/12 106

Qj = Wj × DOCj × DOCF_j × F × MCF × (16/12) ×106
= total CH4 generation over a 100-year period from waste category j = dry mass of waste category j per dry mass of MSW diverted from landfilling [%] = degradable organic carbon content from Table 2 [%] = fraction of degradable organic carbon dissimilated from Table 2 [%] = CH4 concentration in LFG, 50% = Methane correction factor from Table 3 = CH4 to carbon ratio = grams per tonne conversion [g / t]

Step 5 ­ Select the lifetime LFG collection efficiency (LFGCE) that most accurately represents the landfill-specific conditions in Table 4, for each waste category of the organic MSW diverted from the landfill. If the landfill in question is not managed, and LFG is not collected, use a value of 0%. Note that in this case, it would be inappropriate to also select a MCF value of 1.0 which corresponds to an anaerobic managed solid waste disposal site.

are capped. c Minimal: LFG is not collected during waste acceptance, but vertical collectors are used once cells are capped.

Step 6 ­ Select the oxidation rate that best represents the landfill conditions: 10% should be used for modern, sanitary, and well-managed landfills; 0% should be used in all other cases.2
Step 7 ­ Calculate non-captured CH4 emissions, CH4n, per dry tonne of diverted MSW using Equation 2. Note that Qj and LFGCEj are defined for each waste category, j.

Step 10 ­ Calculate the final LEC of the SAF production process, as shown in Equation 5. This landfilland waste-specific LEC value is to be subtracted from the core LCA value (g CO2e/MJ) of MSW-derived SAF.

Note that this is calculated on the basis of MSW diverted from the landfill, before any additional sorting or recycling takes place.

6.2 Methodology for Calculation of Recycling Emissions Credits

CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this document is to provide an overview of the state of the science in the area of aviation noise impacts. As part of its work programme CAEP's Impacts and Science Group (ISG) was tasked with providing an updated white paper on the topic of aviation noise impacts. A white paper on aviation noise impacts was provided at the CAEP/10 meeting as WP/54-Appendix G, and was later published in 2017 as an open access journal article1, but it did not address some emerging areas in aviation. So instead of merely providing an update, the course taken was to extend the review to the above mentioned topics. An Aviation Noise Impacts Workshop was held for invited scientists and other observers and guests in Montreal, Canada November 1-3, 2017. The purpose of this workshop was to lay the foundation for this white paper, and over 50 attendees participated. One specific topic requested by the CAEP Steering Group (CAEP SG.20161.SD.4) was for ISG to address the non-technical environmental aspects of the public acceptability for supersonic aircraft noise, and ISG began to explore this topic. In addition, the authors found much material on supersonics that had not previously been summarized for CAEP, and these details are provided in an appendix. Subsequent follow-up discussions led to additions to this white paper beyond those discussed at the workshop, and this includes urban air mobility (UAM) and unmanned aerial systems (UAS) noise. The basic of metrics for aircraft noise were defined in an appendix to WP/54-Appendix G and the open access journal article1, and those will not be repeated here.

CHAPTER 2. COMMUNITY NOISE ANNOYANCE

2.1 Definition
Community noise annoyance refers to the average evaluation of the annoying aspects of a noise situation by a "community" or group of people. Annoyance, in this context, comprises a response that reflects negative experiences or feelings such as dissatisfaction, anger, disappointment, etc. due to interference with activities (e.g., communication or sleep) or simply an expression of being bothered by the noise. To facilitate inter-study comparisons standardized annoyance questions and response scales have been introduced by the International Commission on Biological Effects of Noise, ICBEN.2 These recommendations have been adopted by the International Standards Organization3, ISO TS 15666, and translated into a number of new languages, following a standard protocol.4

2.2 Exposure-response relationships
Over the years, many attempts have been made to relate the percentage of respondents highly annoyed by
a specific noise source to the day-night average noise exposure level, Ldn, or a similar indicator, e.g. dayevening-night average noise exposure level, Lden.5,6 The standard ISO 1996: 2016 has tables with % HA as a function of Ldn and Lden for various transportation noise sources.7 A review by Gelderblom et al.8 confirms these data for aircraft noise. Another review suggests different relationships, particularly for aircraft noise annoyance.9

2.3 Generalized versus local exposure-response relationships While exposure-response relationships have been recommended for assessing the expected annoyance response in a certain noise situation, they are not applicable to assess the effects of a change in the noise climate. Existing survey results reveal a higher annoyance response in situations with a high rate of change, for instance, where a new runway is opened.10,11,12 Such heightened annoyance response seems to prevail.
Since airports and communities may differ greatly with respect to acoustic and non-acoustic variables, local exposure­response relationships, if available, may be preferred for predicting annoyance and describing the noise situation with desired accuracy. Still, generalized exposure­response relationships are desirable to allow assessment across communities and to establish recommended limit values for levels of aircraft noise.

2.4 Moderating variables
Analyses show that the common noise exposure variables per se explain about one third of the variance of individual annoyance responses. The annoyance response is moderated by a series of other factors, both acoustic and non-acoustic. Acoustic factors can be maximum levels, number of flights, fleet composition, and their respective distribution over time. Non-acoustic factors are for instance, personal noise

10A-6

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

sensitivity and attitude towards the noise source. In the aviation industry all "non- Ldn factors" are commonly referred to as "non-acoustic".

Two old meta-analyses on the influence of non-acoustic factors on annoyance13,14 showed the factors of fear of danger of aircraft operations, followed by noise sensitivity and age, had the largest effects. More recent results indicate that fear is no longer a dominating modifying factor. Other important modifying factors may be distrust in authorities and expectations of property devaluation.15 Guski et al. suggested9 that the rate of change at an airport with respect to noise and operational procedures could be an important moderating factor. They defined two types: LRC and HRC, low/high rate of change airport. Gelderblom et al. have shown that the average difference in the annoyance response between these two types of airports, LRC and HRC, corresponds to a 9-dB-difference (9 dB ± 4 dB) in the noise exposure.17 Guski et al. reported a similar, but smaller difference, about 6 dB.9 The difference between the two studies is likely due to different selections and weighting of survey samples.

An important non-acoustic factor seems to be the attitude towards the noise source and/or its owner. Contrary to common beliefs, people that benefit from the air traffic are not more tolerant to aircraft noise.18 A lack of trust in the authorities, misfeasance, and a feeling of not being fairly treated will increase the annoyance.15 People may adapt different coping strategies, i.e. to master, minimize or tolerate the noise situation. Noise sensitive people have more difficulties coping with noise than others.19 If the respondents in a survey are selected according to proper random procedures, and the number of respondents is large enough to be an accurate representation of the population, individual factors will have the same effect in all surveys. However, other factors are location specific, for instance number of aircraft movements, prevalence of night time operations, LRC/HRC categorization, etc. The survey results from different airports will therefore vary unless these location specific factors are the same, or that they are accounted for statistically. Hence the search for a common exposure-response function, a "one curve fits all" solution, may not be applicable for all purposes.

2.5 Temporal trends in aircraft noise annoyance Systematic surveys on aircraft noise annoyance have been conducted regularly over a good half century. Analyses by some researchers indicate that there has been an increase in aircraft noise annoyance over the past decades.20,21 These authors state that at equal noise exposure levels, people today seem to be more annoyed by aircraft noise than they were 30-40 years ago.
Other researchers, however, claim that they can observe no change provided that the comparisons comprise similar and comparable noise situations.17 Gelderblom et al. point out that the trend observations made by others can be explained by variations in non-acoustic factors, such as the fact that the prevalence of HRC airports are higher among recent surveys than among older ones. When LRC and HRC airports are analyzed separately they claim that there has been no change in the annoyance response over the past 50 years. Guski et al. on the other hand, claim that even at LRC airports the prevalence of highly annoyed people is higher for all exposure levels compared to older studies.9
Survey results from different airports show a large variation in the annoyance response. The result of a trend analysis based on a limited sample of surveys is therefore highly dependent on the selection criteria.

2.6 Noise mitigation strategies
Annoyance due to aircraft noise has been recognized by authorities and policy makers as a harmful effect that should be reduced or prevented. Priority is given to noise reduction at the source (e.g., engine noise, aerodynamic noise) and reducing noise impact by adjusting operational procedures and take-off and landing trajectories. Attempts to modify the noise spectrum to produce a more agreeable "sound" were made in the EU-funded COSMA project.22 Such changes gave little or no effect. Sound insulation of dwellings is often applied, but such measures have no consequences for the outdoor experience of aircraft noise. The observed influence on annoyance of personal non-acoustic factors such as perceived control, and trust in authorities suggests that communication strategies addressing these issues could contribute to the reduction of annoyance, alongside or even in the absence of a noise reduction.

2.7 Conclusions There is substantial evidence that there is an increase in annoyance as a function of noise level, e.g. Ldn or Lden. The noise level alone, however, accounts for only a part of the annoyance. Location and/or situation specific acoustic and non-acoustic factors play a significant role and must be taken into account.
There is conflicting evidence that there has been a change in the annoyance response in recent years. Under equal conditions, people today are not more annoyed at a given noise level than they were 30-40 years ago. However, due to changes in both acoustic and non-acoustic factors (more HRC airports, higher number of aircraft movements, etc.), the average prevalence of highly annoyed people at a given noise level (Ldn or Lden) seems to be increasing. Existing exposure-response functions should be updated and diversified to account for various acoustic and non-acoustic factors. The difference between a high rate change and a low rate change situation seems to be particularly important.

CHAPTER 3. SLEEP DISTURBANCE
3.1 Sleep And Its Importance For Health Sleep is a biological imperative and a very active process that serves several vital functions. Undisturbed sleep of sufficient length is essential for daytime alertness and performance, quality of life, and health.23,24 The epidemiologic evidence that chronically disturbed or curtailed sleep is associated with negative health outcomes (like obesity, diabetes, and high blood pressure) is overwhelming. For these reasons, noise-induced sleep disturbance is considered one of the most important non-auditory effects of environmental noise exposure.

3.2 Aircraft noise effects on sleep
The auditory system has a watchman function and constantly scans the environment for potential threats. Humans perceive, evaluate and react to environmental sounds while asleep.25 At the same sound pressure level (SPL), meaningful or potentially harmful noise events are more likely to cause arousals from sleep than less meaningful events. As aircraft noise is intermittent noise, its effects on sleep are primarily determined by the number and acoustical properties (e.g., maximum SPL, spectral composition) of single noise events. However, whether or not noise will disturb sleep also depends on situational (e.g., sleep depth26) and individual (e.g., noise sensitivity) moderators.25
Sensitivity to nocturnal noise exposure varies considerably between individuals. The elderly, children, shift-workers, and those in ill health are considered at risk for noise-induced sleep disturbance.24 Children are in a sensitive developmental stage and often sleep during the shoulder hours of the day with high air traffic volumes. Likewise, shift-workers often sleep during the day when their circadian rhythm is promoting wakefulness and when traffic volume is high. Sleep depth decreases with age, which is why the elderly are often more easily aroused from sleep by noise than younger subjects.
Repeated noise-induced arousals impair sleep quality through changes in sleep structure including delayed sleep onset and early awakenings, less deep (slow wave) and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, and more time spent awake and in superficial sleep stages.26,27 Deep and REM sleep have been shown to be important for sleep recuperation in general and memory consolidation specifically. Non-acoustic factors (e.g., high temperature, nightmares) can also disturb sleep and complicate the unequivocal attribution of arousals to noise.28 Field studies in the vicinity of airports have shown that most arousals cannot be attributed to aircraft noise, and noise-induced sleep-disturbance is in general less severe than that observed in clinical sleep disorders like obstructive sleep apnea.29,30 However, noise-induced arousals are not part of the physiologic sleep process, and may therefore be more consequential for sleep recuperation.132 Short-term effects of noise-induced sleep disturbance include impaired mood, subjectively and objectively increased daytime sleepiness, and impaired cognitive performance.31,32 It is hypothesized that noise-induced sleep disturbance contributes to the increased risk of cardiovascular disease if individuals are exposed to relevant noise levels over years. Recent epidemiologic studies indicate that nocturnal noise exposure may be more relevant for long-term health consequences than daytime noise exposure, probably also because people are at home more consistently during the night.16,33

3.3 Noise effects assessment
Exposure-response functions relating a noise indicator (e.g., maximum SPL) to a sleep outcome (e.g. awakening probability) can be used for health impact assessments and inform political decision making. Subjects exposed to noise typically habituate, and exposure-response functions derived in the field (where subjects have often been exposed to the noise for many years) are much shallower than those derived in unfamiliar laboratory settings.34,35 Unfortunately, sample sizes and response rates of the studies that are the basis for exposure-response relationships were usually low, which restricts generalizability.

Exposure-response functions are typically sigmoidal (s-shaped) and show monotonically increasing effects. Maximum SPLs as low as 33 dB(A) induce physiological reactions during sleep, i.e., once the organism is able to differentiate a noise event from the background, physiologic reactions can be expected (albeit with a low probability at low noise levels).34 This reaction threshold should not be confused with
limit values used in legislative and policy settings, which are usually considerably higher. At the same maximum SPL, aircraft noise has been shown to be less likely to disturb sleep compared to road and rail traffic noise, which was partly explained by the frequency distribution, duration, and rise time of the noise events.27,36 At the same time, the percent highly sleep disturbed assessed via self-reports is typically higher for aircraft noise compared to road and rail traffic noise at the same Lnight level.37

Although equivalent noise levels are correlated with sleep disturbance, there is general agreement that the number and acoustical properties of noise events better reflect the degree of sleep disturbance (especially for intermittent aircraft noise). As exposure-response functions are typically without a clearly discernible sudden increase in sleep disturbance at a specific noise level, defining limit values is not straight forward and remains a political decision weighing the negative consequences of aircraft noise on sleep with the economic and societal benefits of air traffic. Accordingly, night-time noise legislation differs between Contracting States.

3.4 Noise mitigation
Mitigating the effects of aircraft noise on sleep is a three-tiered approach. Noise reduction at the source has highest priority. However, as it will take years for new aircraft with reduced noise emissions to penetrate the market (and will thus not solve the problem in the near future), additional immediate measures are needed. For example, noise-reducing take-off and landing procedures can often be more easily implemented during the low-traffic night-time. Land-use planning can be used to reduce the number of relevantly exposed subjects. Passive sound insulation (including ventilation) represent mitigation measures that can be effective in reducing sleep disturbance, as subjects usually spend their nights indoors. At some airports, nocturnal traffic curfews have been imposed by regulation. It is important to line up the curfew period with the (internationally varying) sleep patterns of the population.

3.5 Recent evidence review
For sleep disturbance, a systematic evidence review based on studies published in or after the year 2000 was recently published.37 According to GRADE38 criteria, the quality of the evidence was found to be moderate for cortical awakenings and self-reported sleep disturbance (for questions that referred to noise) induced by aircraft noise, low for motility measures of aircraft noise induced sleep disturbance, and very

10A-10

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

low for all other investigated sleep outcomes. Significant exposure-response functions were found for aircraft noise for (a) sleep stage changes to wake or superficial stage S1 (unadjusted OR 1.35, 95% CI 1.22-1.50 per 10 dB increase in LAS,max; based on N=61 subjects of a single study) and (b) percent highly sleep disturbed for questions mentioning the noise source (OR 1.94, 95% CI 1.61-2.33 for a 10 dBA increase in Lnight; based on N=6 studies including > 6,000 respondents). For percent highly sleep disturbed, heterogeneity between studies was found to be high (I2=84%).

CHAPTER 4. HEALTH IMPACTS

4.1 Introduction There is good biological plausibility for health impacts of environmental noise, with potential mechanisms involving sleep disturbance, `fight and flight' physiological response and annoyance.39,40 The number of epidemiological studies investigating impacts of environmental noise on disease risk and risk factors has increased greatly since the previous ICAO white paper1 and these have been used to define exposure-response relationships. Some variability is expected between epidemiological studies due to differences in populations, methodology, exposures and study design. Therefore, a combined estimate from a meta-analysis of studies with a low risk of bias is used to provide a state of the art estimate of the exposure-response relationship.
This section highlights main findings from the systematic literature reviews and meta-analyses published in 2017-2018. These reviews reference the noise and health literature up to August 2015 for cardiovascular outcomes41 and December 2016 for birth outcomes.42 This section also considers new publications up to end July 2018, including from the NORAH (http://www.laermstudie.de/en/norahstudy/) and SIRENE (http://www.sirene-studie.ch/) studies in Germany and Switzerland respectively. Almost all studies available were conducted in European and North American populations.

4.2 Aircraft noise and cardiovascular impacts
The systematic review on cardiovascular and metabolic effects of environmental noise was performed by van Kempen et al.41 and described in detail in an RIVM (Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment) report.46 The authors reviewed studies on the association between environmental noise (different source types) and hypertension in adults (none were identified focusing on children), ischaemic heart disease, stroke and obesity published up to August 2015. Findings for aircraft noise were reported to be consistent with findings for road traffic noise, where there are more studies available.
For hypertension: the van Kempen et al.41 meta-analysis included nine cross-sectional studies and provided an estimated increased risk of 5% (95% confidence intervals -5% to +17%) per 10 dB (Lden) aircraft noise (comprising 60,121 residents, including 9487 cases of hypertension). The one cohort study identified50 (4721 residents and 1346 cases in Sweden published in 2010) did not show an overall association with hypertension incidence, but there were significant associations in subgroup analyses of males and of those annoyed by aircraft noise. The authors of the review ranked the quality of the evidence for noise from air traffic as "low" using the GRADE ranking system, meaning that further research is considered very likely to have both an important impact on confidence in the estimate of effect and to change the size of the estimate. Subsequent to the systematic review, a large case-control study (137,577 cases and 355,591 controls) from the NORAH study51 found no associations overall for aircraft noise with hypertension, but an increased risk for the subgroup of those who went on to develop hypertension-related heart disease, i.e. more severe cases. A subsequent publication from a small cohort (N=420) with up to 9 years follow-up in Athens who formed part of the original HYENA (Hypertension and Exposure to Noise

10A-12

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

Near Airports) study found a 2.6-fold increased risk of hypertension in association with a 10 dB increase in night-time aircraft noise.52

Hypertension shows a positive but non-statistically significant association overall reflecting inconsistency between studies. This can be a difficult outcome to define precisely ­ the PURE multi-country study published in 2013 found nearly half of all cases of hypertension were unrecognised.198 There are various issues about defining hypertension by medication use, and recognised issues about measuring blood pressure in individuals. Also, hypertension may not be the only or most important mechanism contributing to potential impacts of noise on the heart ­ inflammation, small blood vessel function and sleep disturbance also need to be considered.196,197

For ischaemic heart disease (IHD) and heart failure, findings were more consistent than for hypertension: the van Kempen et al. systematic review41 reported a statistically significant increased risk of new cases of ischaemic heart disease of +9% (95% confidence intervals +4% to +15%) per 10 dB Lden, derived from a meta-analysis of two very large registry-based studies of 9.6 million participants and 158,977 cases. Taking into account evidence relating to existing as well as new cases and to mortality, the authors of the systematic review concluded "Overall, we rate the quality of the evidence supporting an association between air traffic noise and IHD as `low'" [using the GRADE ranking system] "indicating that further research is very likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and is likely to change the estimate". Subsequent published analyses from the SIRENE project using data from the Swiss National Cohort covering 4.4 million people53, reported associations between aircraft noise and myocardial infarction mortality with increased risk of +2.6% (95% confidence intervals +0.4% to +4.8%) per 10 dB Lden. Highest associations between noise and IHD were seen with intermittent nighttime exposures.54 A large case-control study in Germany (19,632 cases and 834,734 controls) forming part of the NORAH study found associations of aircraft noise with diagnosis of myocardial infarction at higher noise levels (>55 dB) in the early morning hours, although not for 24 hour average noise levels. A further large NORAH study analysis55 found a statistically significant linear exposure-response relationship with aircraft noise for heart failure or hypertensive heart disease of +1.6% per 10 dB increase in 24 hour continuous noise level (analysis based on 104,145 cases and 654,172 controls).
For stroke: the van Kempen et al. systematic review41 considered seven studies of different designs including one cohort study (the Swiss National Cohort). Findings were mixed but the meta-analysis did not show statistically significant associations of aircraft noise with stroke outcomes. This result is consistent with subsequently published SIRENE study findings on stroke mortality also using the Swiss National Cohort but with improved noise exposure estimates.53

Comparisons with findings for road traffic noise: findings for aircraft noise and the cardiovascular disease outcomes presented above are consistent with those for road traffic noise as reported in the van Kempen et al systematic review.41 In particular, for ischaemic heart disease, the systematic review rated the quality of the evidence supporting an association between road traffic noise and new cases of ischaemic heart disease to be high, providing an increased risk of +8% (+1% to +15%) per 10 dB Lden road traffic noise (as compared with findings for aircraft noise for this outcome of +9% (+4% to +15%) as noted above). Analogy with road traffic noise is meaningful, because, as well as impacts on annoyance, noise also functions as a non-specific stressor with non-auditory impacts on the autonomic nervous

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

10A-13

system and endocrine system. These stressor effects are seen with noise from different sources and result in adverse effects on oxidative stress and vascular function in experimental studies.196,197

4.3 Aircraft noise and metabolic effects (diabetes, obesity, waist circumference, metabolic biomarkers)
The van Kempen et al. systematic review41 identified one Swedish cohort study considering aircraft noise,56 which found a significant association between aircraft noise exposure and increased waist circumference over 8-10 years follow-up, but not for Body Mass Index (BMI) or type 2 diabetes. The authors of the systematic review concluded that further research would be likely to have an important impact on both size and statistical confidence in the estimate of effect. Three more recent publications also report some associations of aircraft noise with metabolic disturbance.57-59 A 2017 Swiss cohort study analysis forming part of the SIRENE project suggested an approximate doubling of diabetes incidence per 12 dB Lden increase in aircraft noise exposure57 and positive although non-significant associations of aircraft noise exposure with glycosylated haemoglobin, a measure of glucose control over the past three months and a predictor of diabetes.58 A 2017 study in Korea of 18,165 pregnant women identified through health insurance records,59 found an association between night-time but not daytime aircraft noise exposure during the first trimester of pregnancy and risk of gestational diabetes mellitus.
Findings are consistent with a hypothesis that noise exposure is related to stress-hormone-mediated deposition of fat centrally and other impacts on metabolic functioning and/or adverse effects of disturbed sleep on metabolic and endocrine function, also with results from a small number of studies considering road traffic noise that also found associations with diabetes, but more studies are needed to strengthen the evidence base for this outcome.

4.4 Aircraft noise and birth outcomes A systematic review by Nieuwenhuijsen, et al.42 published in 2017 considered literature published up to December 2016. Six aircraft noise studies were included, but there were too few studies to conduct a meta-analysis. Four studies (published 1973-2001) considered birth weight and all studies found associations with aircraft noise exposure, but noise exposure levels in these studies were high (> 75 dB, various metrics). A further two studies conducted in the 1970s considered birth defects, of which one found significant associations ­ again, noise levels considered were high. Evidence was considered such that any estimate of effect is very uncertain. The authors commented that "there may be some suggestive evidence for an association between environmental noise exposure and birth outcomes" with some support for this from studies of occupational noise exposure (which were higher than most current environmental aircraft noise exposures), but that further and high quality studies were needed. No further studies relating birth outcomes to aircraft noise have been published to date.

4.5 Aircraft noise and mental health
There remain very few studies of aircraft noise exposure in relation to wellbeing, quality of life, and psychological ill-health. Since the previous ICAO paper and publication1 in 2017, there has been one major German analysis60 published from the NORAH study, which found a significant association with

10A-14

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

depression as recorded in health insurance claims. Risk estimates increased with increasing noise levels to a maximum Odds Ratio (OR) of 1.23 (95% CI=1.19-1.28) at 50-55 dB (24 hour average), but decreased at higher exposure categories. The reason for this is unclear but it may potentially be due to uncertainties related to very small numbers of exposed and cases at higher noise levels. A cohort study following 1185 German school children61 from age 5-6 to 9-10 years did not find associations of aircraft noise exposure with mental health problems (such as emotional symptoms, hyperactivity and conduct problems), but as the study used parental noise annoyance at place of residence as the measure of exposure as opposed to objectively assessed (modelled or measured) quantitative exposure levels, it is difficult to draw firm conclusions.

4.6 Conclusions There has been a large increase in studies in recent years examining associations of noise exposure with health outcomes. The best epidemiological evidence relates to cardiovascular disease, which includes analyses from population-based studies covering millions of individuals, in particular for new cases of ischaemic heart disease. Findings for aircraft noise are consistent with those for road traffic noise (for which more studies have been conducted and where the quality of evidence is rated as high). Results from epidemiological studies are also supported by evidence from human and animal field and laboratory experimental studie45-49 showing biological effects of noise on mechanistic pathways relating to risk factors for cardiovascular disease. This experimental evidence, together with consistency with findings for road traffic noise, supports the likelihood that associations for aircraft noise with heart disease observed in epidemiological studies are causal. However, the exact magnitude of the exposure-response estimate for heart disease varies between studies and best estimates (obtained by combining results from good quality studies in a systematic review) are likely to change as further studies add to the evidence base.
There are important gaps in the evidence base for other outcomes. Perhaps surprisingly, few studies have been conducted in relation to impact of aircraft noise on mental health. There are also few studies relating to maternal health and birth outcomes including birth weight.
Generally, health studies to date have used Lden, Lday and Lnight metrics, most likely as these were available and had been extensively validated in annoyance studies. There is a need to examine other noise metrics that may be more relevant to health endpoints ­ some of the more recent studies are starting to include other metrics, including intermittency ratio,43 maximum noise level and to examine specific time periods,44 especially for night-time exposures. These new metrics should be additional, but not replace the standard equivalent metrics (LAeq, Lden) to allow for comparability of results, at least at present while the evidence base is being compiled.

CHAPTER 5. CHILDREN'S LEARNING

5.1 Chronic aircraft noise exposure and children's learning
Several studies have found effects of aircraft noise exposure at school or at home on children's reading comprehension or memory skills62 or standardized test scores.63,64 The RANCH study (Road traffic and Aircraft Noise and children's Cognition & Health) of 2844 9-10 year old children from 89 schools around London Heathrow, Amsterdam Schiphol, and Madrid Barajas airports found exposure-response associations between aircraft noise and poorer reading comprehension and poorer recognition memory, after taking social position and road traffic noise exposure, into account.65 A 5 dB increase in aircraft noise exposure was associated with a two month delay in reading age in the UK, and a one month delay in the Netherlands.66 These associations were not explained by co-occurring air pollution.67 Night-time aircraft noise at the child's home was also associated with impaired reading comprehension and recognition memory, but night-noise did not have an additional effect to that of daytime noise exposure on reading comprehension or recognition memory.68 The recent NORAH study of 1242 children aged 8 years from 29 primary schools around Frankfurt airport in Germany found that a 10 dB (LAeq 08.00am14.00pm) increase in aircraft noise was associated with a one-month delay in terms of reading age. The RANCH and NORAH studies examine the effect of aircraft noise on children's reading comprehension starting from a very low level of exposure. This enables the studies to adequately assess where effects of aircraft begin (i.e. identify thresholds): we should not be concerned by the inclusion of the examination of such low levels of aircraft noise exposure as both the RANCH and the NORAH study adjust the results for other noise exposures (e.g. road noise in RANCH and road and rail noise in NORAH) making the assessment meaningful in terms of considering other noise exposures and ambient noise exposure per se. Effects of aircraft noise on children's learning have been demonstrated across a range of aircraft noise metrics including LAeq, Lmax, number of events above a threshold, and time above a threshold. 64

The vertical axis shows the adjusted mean reading z scores and 95% confidence intervals for 5-dB(A) bands of aircraft noise at school (adjusted for age, gender, and country).66
Data from the RANCH study and the NORAH study enable the exposure-effect association between aircraft noise exposure and children's reading comprehension to be estimated69,70 (see Figures 1 and 2). Both studies suggest that the relationship between aircraft noise and reading comprehension is linear, so reducing exposure at any level should lead to improvements in reading comprehension. In the RANCH study, reading comprehension began to fall below average at exposures greater than 55 dB LAeq 16 hour at school.
It is possible that children may be exposed to aircraft noise for many of their childhood years, but few studies have assessed the consequences of long-term noise exposure at school on learning or cognitive outcomes. Whilst it is plausible that aircraft noise exposure across a child's education may be detrimental for learning, evidence to support this position is lacking. A six-year follow-up of the UK sample of the RANCH study, when the children were aged 15-16 years of age, failed to find a statistically significant association but did suggest a trend between higher aircraft noise exposure at primary school and poorer reading comprehension at follow-up,71 as well as a trend between higher aircraft noise exposure at secondary school and poorer reading comprehension at secondary school. This study was limited by its small sample size, which may be why it detects trends rather than significant associations. There remains an urgent need to evaluate the impact of aircraft noise exposure throughout a child's education on cognitive skills, academic outcomes and life chances.

5.2 How might chronic aircraft noise exposure cause learning deficits? Aircraft noise may directly affect the development of cognitive skills relevant for learning such as reading and memory. A range of other plausible pathways and mechanisms for the effects have also been proposed. Communication difficulties might also account for the effects: teacher behavior is influenced by fluctuations in external noise, with a recent observational study finding associations between aircraft noise events and teacher voice-masking (when the teacher's voice is distorted or drowned out by noise) and teacher's raising their voice).72 Effects might also be accounted for by teacher and pupil frustration, reduced morale, impaired attention, increased arousal ­ which influences task performance, and sleep disturbance from home exposure which might cause performance effects the next day.73,74 Noise causes annoyance, particularly if an individual feels their activities are being disturbed or if it causes difficulties with communication. In some individuals, annoyance responses may result in physiological and psychological stress responses, which might explain poorer learning outcomes.
5.3 Interventions to reduce aircraft noise exposure at school Studies have shown that interventions to reduce aircraft noise exposure at school do improve children's learning outcomes. The longitudinal Munich Airport study75 found that prior to the relocation of the airport in Munich, high noise exposure was associated with poorer long-term memory and reading comprehension in children aged 10 years. Two years after the airport closed these cognitive impairments were no longer present, suggesting that the effects of aircraft noise on cognitive performance may be reversible if the noise stops. In the cohort of children living near the newly opened Munich airport

10A-18

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

impairments in memory and reading developed over the first two-year period following the opening of the new airport. A recent study of 6,000 schools exposed between the years 2000-2009 at the top 46 United States airports (exposed to Day-Night-Average Sound Level of 55 dB or higher) found significant associations between aircraft noise and standardized tests of mathematics and reading, after taking demographic and school factors into account.64 In a sub-sample of 119 schools, they found that the effect of aircraft noise on children's learning disappeared once the school had sound insulation installed. These studies evidence the effectiveness of the insulation of schools that may be exposed to high levels of aircraft noise.

Sound-field systems, which ensure even distributions of sound from the teacher across the classroom, could provide a solution to improving children's learning in situations of aircraft noise. However, an evaluation of these systems in schools in the UK, which were not exposed to aircraft noise, found that whilst the systems improved children's performance on tests of understanding of spoken language they did not influence academic attainment in terms of test of numeracy, reading or spelling.76 Whether such systems may be an effective intervention for children attending schools with high levels of aircraft noise exposure remains to be evaluated.

5.4 Conclusions
There is robust evidence for an effect of aircraft noise exposure on children's cognitive skills such as reading and memory, as well as on standardized academic test scores. Evidence is also emerging to support the insulation of schools that may be exposed to high levels of aircraft noise. Whilst a range of plausible mechanisms have been proposed to account for aircraft noise effects on children's learning, future research needs to test these pathways, to further inform decision-making concerning the design of physical, educational and psychological interventions for children exposed to high levels of aircraft noise. Further knowledge about exposure-effect relationships in different contexts, using either individually collected cognitive performance data or standardized school test data, would also further inform decisionmaking. It would also be productive to derive relationships for a range of additional noise exposure metrics, such as the number of noise events. To date, few studies have evaluated the effects of persistent aircraft noise exposure throughout the child's education and there remains a need for longitudinal lifecourse studies of aircraft noise exposure at school and cognitive skills, educational outcomes and life chances.

CHAPTER 6. HELICOPTER NOISE

6.1 Exposure-response relationships
Exposure-response relationships derived for annoyance by aircraft noise were viewed as not necessarily valid for specific sources such as helicopters, low-flying military aircraft or aircraft ground noise.6 Although relatively little is known on annoyance induced by helicopter noise, some surveys performed in the past have shown that helicopter noise is more often reported as annoying than fixed-wing aircraft noise, at similar or even lower A-weighted outdoor noise levels.78-82 This was found for heavy military helicopters as well as for lighter civilian helicopters. A more recent survey83 was done in three residential areas under or adjacent to helicopter corridors that were used by light civilian helicopters. The study was limited to only three surveys, but it was clear that for light civilian aircraft there was not a pronounced difference between response to fixed wing and rotary wing aircraft. The study did show that there was a residual annoyance associated with helicopter operations that was not associated with noise exposure level.

6.2 Role of non-acoustic factors Some field studies81,84 have shown that helicopter noise annoyance is heightened by certain non-acoustic factors, in particular fear of a crash, lack of information on the reason of the flights, and low perceived necessity of the helicopter flights themselves (such as when the helicopter is viewed as `rich person's toy') or of the noise that is produced by them (for instance when it is felt that the pilot or operator could reduce the disturbance by choosing a different flight pattern).
A more recent study83 also found that for three surveys completed under or near light civil helicopter routes there was `residual annoyance,' not a function of noise exposure level, an annoyance that was constant for all noise exposures with no evident tendency to approach zero at even very low noise levels. This lack of correlation between noise exposure level; and annoyance was associated with the strong influence of non-acoustic factors. These and earlier findings suggest that observed differences in annoyance between helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft may heavily depend on non-acoustic factors.

6.3 Role of impulse noise
Several laboratory studies have explored whether the degree of impulsiveness of the helicopter noise may contribute to annoyance.85-89 No consistent differences in annoyance were found between helicopter and aircraft noise, again suggesting that observed differences in the field were partly due to non-acoustic factors, nor did annoyance depend on the degree of impulsiveness. Therefore, the overall consensus is that there is no evidence to justify the application of an impulse correction to the noise level of helicopters with impulsive characteristics.90-91

10A-20

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

6.4 Role of rattle noise and vibrations
There is evidence that helicopter noise characterized by large low frequency components may impact the building and produce rattle (i.e. sounds of rattling objects or windows within the dwelling) or vibration (the perception of vibrating building elements or furniture), which in turn may lead to increased annoyance by the helicopter noise.92 While rattle noise and vibration may also be induced by the lowfrequency components of ground noise during aircraft landing and take-off,93,94 it is only sporadically induced by overflying fixed-wing aircraft.95 In a large field study in the United States96 it was found that noise from helicopters flying over was rated by subjects (seated in a wooden frame building) as more annoying than a control stimulus, but only when the helicopter induced rattle noise or vibration within the building. The results suggest a decibel offset of at least 10 dB to account for the extra annoyance when rattle or vibration were induced by the helicopter noise (i.e. the control stimulus had to be at least 10 dB higher to induce equal annoyance). An extension of this study suggested similar offset values of 10 and 8 dB for two helicopter types inducing rattle and vibration.80 A recent study in the Netherlands suggests a lower offset, around 5-6 dB, for helicopter noise in combination with rattle noise induced within the building.97 This conclusion is not supported for light civil helicopter surveys83 where survey respondents did not report vibration or rattle as a source of annoyance. The relatively small degree of low frequency energy associated with light civil helicopters as compared to heavy lift helicopters is not expected to produce rattle noise, which is the most plausible explanation for the difference.

CHAPTER 7. EN-ROUTE NOISE FROM SUPERSONIC AIRCRAFT

7.1 Introduction Sonic booms are the unique sounds produced by supersonic aircraft. This section summarizes many of the properties and impacts of sonic booms, as we know them today. Additional detail about sonic boom noise impacts is provided in an Appendix to this white paper, for readers interested in those specifics. Detailed references are given in that Appendix.98-164
Conventional sonic booms are widely considered to be loud, and this forms the basis of current regulations in many countries that prohibit supersonic overland flight. However, new research has enabled aeronautical engineers the tools to develop quiet "low-boom" aircraft designs that may be available in 5 to 10 years. Hence, sonic boom research needs to clearly distinguish whether the sonic booms are the conventional N-wave sounds, so called because of their letter N pressure versus time shape, or the new low-booms which are considerably smoothed. The low-booms, or "sonic thumps", can be as much as 35 dB quieter than conventional booms.

7.2 Human response studies Studies have shown that sonic booms can be reproduced quite accurately in the laboratory, and this makes it possible to perform subjective experiments under controlled conditions. Although no supersonic aircraft has produced a low-boom signature yet, a similar surrogate sound can be created using a special aircraft dive manoeuver. This makes it possible to conduct tests with real aircraft outdoors for either N-waves or low-booms, complementing the laboratory tests.
A number of subjective tests have been conducted. One trend seen in studies from both the U.S. and Japan is that annoyance to sonic boom noise is greater indoors compared to outdoors. The findings show that indoor annoyance can be estimated based on the outdoor sonic boom exposure. There has been recent work to establish that both rattle and vibration contribute to indoor annoyance of sonic booms. One interesting point is that although conventional N-waves can be accompanied by a startle response, it turns out that low-booms are of low enough amplitude that they don't induce a consistent physiological startle response.
There has been substantial work in recent years to establish metrics to assess sonic boom noise. Out of a list of 70 possible metrics, a group of 6 metrics has been identified for the purposes of use in certification standards and in developing dose-response curves for future community response studies. Clearly the low-booms are much quieter than the conventional N-wave booms, but additional community studies with a low-boom aircraft need to be conducted to assess public response.

7.3 Non-technical aspects of public acceptability for sonic boom An additional aspect that should be considered for sonic booms includes the non-technical aspects of acceptability. The CAEP Steering Group specifically requested that ISG look into this topic. A

10A-22

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

preliminary discussion has revealed a strong resemblance to the non-acoustical factors of subsonic aircraft noise, previously mentioned in Section 2 "Community Noise Annoyance" of this white paper. There are currently no peer-reviewed studies on the topic of non-acoustical factors for sonic boom noise, but it seems plausible that the knowledge of subsonic aircraft non-acoustical factors could be extended for application to sonic boom noise non-technical aspects.

7.4 Impacts of sonic boom on animals Recently there has been renewed interest regarding the impacts of sonic boom noise on animals. Fortunately there is an extensive literature extending from before the days of Concorde to recent years, mostly for conventional N-wave aircraft. The details of the many studies are available in the Appendix to this white paper.
There have been substantial studies for both livestock and other domesticated animals, and detailed studies of some wildlife species. For conventional sonic booms the animals usually show no reactions or minimal reactions, although occasionally they may startle just as humans do. There are no reported problems of developing fish eggs or of avian eggs due to sonic boom exposures. NASA conducted a number of studies in the late 1990s and early 2000s to assess the impact of overwater sonic booms on marine mammals. There is a good bit of knowledge as to how much sonic boom noise transitions from air into water, and fortunately, very little of the sound gets into the water. For the California sea lion, elephant seals, and harbor seals, careful lab experiments showed no temporary hearing shifts in those species.
In 1997 and 1998 a study of a colony of seals exposed to Concorde booms on a regular basis showed that the booms didn't substantially affect the breeding behavior of gray or harbor seals. It instead seems that these animals substantially habituated to hearing these N-wave sonic booms on a routine basis.
Most of what is known about noise impacts on animals comes from the literature of the effects of subsonic aircraft and other anthropogenic noise sources, not sonic booms, on animals. It is well known that human activities can interfere with animal communication, for example.
There have not been many specific studies on the effects of sonic boom noise on animals in recent years. Some species with good low-frequency hearing, such as elephants, have never been evaluated regarding sonic boom noise. But it makes sense that if the already tested animals were not negatively affected by sonic boom noise from conventional N-waves, that they will likely not be affected by the proposed low-booms of the future. Long-term effects of sonic boom exposure on animals seem unlikely.

7.5 Conclusions
Much progress has been made to model and mitigate the effect of sonic booms from supersonic flight. Ongoing research to assess the impact on the public indicate that new supersonic aircraft designs will create quieter sonic thumps that are much less annoying than conventional sonic booms. Upcoming community tests with a low-boom demonstrator aircraft will collect the data needed on noise exposure and resulting public reactions.

CHAPTER 8. UAM/UAS noise

8.1 Current status New aircraft technologies for increased mobility are likely to lead to new sources of community noise. Urban Air Mobility (UAM) refers to a range of vehicle concepts and missions operating in a community, from small Unmanned Aerial Systems (sUAS) to vehicles large enough for several passengers. The sUAS are envisioned for package delivery, surveillance, agriculture, surveying, and other similar applications that can benefit from use of a small and agile autonomous system, while the larger vehicles are envisioned for on-demand urban passenger transportation.165 Electric propulsion is seen as a key technology that could enable these kinds of systems, across the range of vehicle types and sizes.165
UAM vehicles have the potential to alter the community soundscape due to their noise characteristics that are qualitatively different from traditional aircraft.166-168 In addition, similar to sonic booms from supersonic aircraft en route, the noise may not be concentrated around traditional airports. There is very little scientific research on the human impacts of noise from UAM aircraft, although there have been increased efforts to measure and model the noise generated by them and their components.167,169-172 Two psychoacoustic studies are briefly described here.
A study166 was conducted by NASA to evaluate human annoyance to sUAS noise, including the effect of variation in operational factors and a comparison of annoyance to noise from road vehicles. The noise from four commercially available sUAS and four road vehicles, ranging in size from a passenger car to a step van, were recorded and presented to test subjects in a specialized simulation facility. For this limited set of noise sources, a systematic offset was found that indicates the noise of sUAS is more annoying than noise from road vehicles when presented at the same loudness.
Another NASA psychoacoustic study168 concentrated on annoyance to noise from a simulated distributed electric propulsion (DEP) aircraft. Using auralizations from noise predictions of spatially-distributed, isolated propeller noise sources, the subjective study in a specialized psychoacoustic facility found that the number of propellers and inclusion of time-varying effects were significant factors in annoyance, while variation of the relative revolutions-per-minute (RPM) between propellers was not significant. The study also developed an annoyance model based on loudness, roughness, and tonality for predicting annoyance to these DEP sounds. Despite the limitations in prediction methods and simplifications, the study identified the relevant parameters and metrics that should be studied further.

8.2 Conclusions
Growing interest in UAM aircraft has been observed from different sectors, such as hobbyists, commercial entities, the military, government agencies, and scientists.165 There is preliminary evidence that the public may be concerned with these new noise sources intended for transportation and package delivery.173 Although there is only a very limited amount of research on subjective reaction to noise from these new aircraft types, indications that the noise characteristics differ from traditional aircraft warrant further research to understand and predict human perception of these sounds.

CHAPTER 9. ECONOMIC COST OF AVIATION NOISE / MONETIZATION

9.1 Introduction
Sleep disturbance, myocardial infarction, annoyance, stroke, dementia, and other health effects are increasingly recognized as economic costs of noise.174 Recent studies estimating annual noise costs around specific major world airports are useful in considering the scale of the challenge and include: Taipei Songshan Airport 33 million175 and Heathrow £80.3 million.176 An unpublished student thesis by Kish (2008) suggests annual costs for aviation noise at 181 airports worldwide in excess of $1 billion, which is not out of line with the individual airport estimates.177 It is clear that noise can be a key factor when airport expansion is considered. Values of disturbance from aircraft noise are used in analysis and planning decisions affecting airport development and operations. Their main application is in estimating the costs or benefits arising from changes in noise levels and/or exposure. It is therefore important to look at the evidence that underpins these value estimates. There are three main approaches for monetizing noise costs, two of which value the nuisance according to individual preferences: revealed preference, usually hedonic pricing, and stated preference methods, which include contingent valuation and stated choice. The third type of approach, the impact pathway, links health effects of noise nuisance to monetary values from reducing morbidity risks that are typically derived from elsewhere. These are discussed in turn below.

9.2 Hedonic Pricing (HP)
The main method using revealed preference is hedonic pricing whereby the market for an existing good or service, in this case housing, is used to derive the value for components of that good, in this case the noise environment. House price in HP is modelled as a function of property characteristics that should include all social, spatial, and environmental factors. HP then provides the percentage change in house prices resulting from a 1 dB change in noise levels.178,179 The method has been extensively applied to the problem of aircraft noise, especially in North America. Individual studies yield a wide range of price changes from 0% to 2.3% per dB.180 Thus a key challenge is to derive values that are applicable or transferable in different contexts.
Meta-analyses have sought to estimate consensus values based on pooled evidence from individual studies.181-183 These meta-analyses are based on a reasonably small number of, US dominated studies, observations of 30, 29 and 53 respectively. Nelson (2004) and Wadud (2013) converge on 0.5 to 0.6% house price fall in response to a 1 dB increase in aviation noise, with caveats concerning the broad range of estimates and a dearth of studies in less developed countries. Using data on income, Kish (2008) carried out a meta-analysis on US based HP evidence, estimating a model with a low but reasonable fit, which he found did not transfer well to UK data. He et al. (2014) built on this work184 but their model fit was poor. The evidence from these studies also suggests that values in Canada are higher182,183 or more generically that values outside the US are higher.184 Interestingly, Kopsch (2016) reports a meta-analysis including air and road noise, finding that aviation noise increases the NDI by 0.4 to 0.6% relative to road.185 To conclude, the best available evidence from the HP is that house prices fall by 0.5 to 0.6%, on

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

10A-25

average, per 1 dBA increase in aircraft noise, and there is also some support for country specific effects.182,183

9.3 Stated Preference (SP)
Stated preference approaches have been increasingly applied to value noise nuisance especially in Europe. These involve either direct questioning on value, contingent valuation, or trade-off approaches, stated choice or ranking. As with HP, individual studies exhibit a wide range in values per unit of noise. A data set of 258 values of transportation noise derived from SP studies, adjusted to 2009 prices, yielded an average value per decibel change per household per annum of $141.59, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) +/$30.24 with a range from $0 to $3,407.67. However the aviation noise values within this data, 69, exhibit less variation with a mean of $292.24 and a CI of +/- $23.10 and smaller range of $15.05 to $1097.83. Such variation in values may reflect genuine variations in preferences, the impact of contextual variables, variations in approach, systematic study or country effects, and changing preferences over time or some combination of these effects.186 Again, meta-analysis can assist in explaining some of this variation. Only one meta-analysis has been conducted on studies of transportation noise, utilising 258 values derived from 49 studies across 23 countries conducted over a 40-year period.186 As might be expected, the value of noise reduction or the cost of noise increases were found to be dependent on level of annoyance and income. The income elasticity was close to one, suggesting that the value placed on reduced noise increases broadly in line with income; this is higher than estimates from cross sectional studies. There were no country effects found in this meta-analysis, suggesting that the model and values derived from it are transferable. Additionally, aviation noise was found to have a higher cost per dBA than road and rail noise. A result that is consistent both with studies of annoyance,6 and HP meta-analysis.185 Furthermore, comparison with the then HP-based approach applied by the UK Department for Transport at the time (2014) indicated that the values from the SP meta-analysis and the HP-based approach were broadly comparable. 186 This is also supported by the primary research of Thanos et al. (2015), applying SP and HP in the same context.195

9.4 Impact pathway The third approach is rather different by exploring the impact pathway (IP) for noise effects on human health, and expressing those endpoints in terms of Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) or Quality Adjusted Life Years QALYs) to quantify healthy life years lost. The World Health Organization adopted this approach174 and identified disability weights (DW) for cardiovascular disease, sleep disturbance, tinnitus and annoyance resulting from environmental noise. The evidence on the health impacts in all areas has been growing over the years. However, the evidence base underpinning the DWs for sleep disturbance and annoyance is extremely sparse, with a high degree of uncertainty.180 This is reflected in the WHO (2011, p: 93) weight on annoyance where "a tentative DW of 0.02 is proposed with a relatively large uncertainty interval (0.01-0.12)". This DW is only applicable those who are "highly annoyed", so any individuals experiencing annoyance who are not highly annoyed are assigned a value of zero.
There is uncertainty around the value of a healthy life year lost, which is combined with the DW weights to derive monetary values. In practice, value of life has been derived from stated preference studies of traffic fatalities in the UK,188 or reduced mortality risk based on stated preference studies in Europe.189 As

10A-26

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

these values do not stem from analysing the health risks of noise nuisance, there is an added element of
uncertainty regarding transferability of values from diverse contexts. Furthermore, the impact pathway
approach has many steps each with potential to add error and uncertainty to the value/cost estimates. As
Freeman et al., (2014, p: 441) put it, "significant work is needed to improve and update the values of reducing risks that lead to morbidity and/or mortality."190 Nevertheless, the method has been adopted into policy analysis by the UK Department of Transport191 in assessing transport schemes and by the European Commission in evaluating the environmental noise directive.192

9.5 The abatement and mitigation costs of dealing with noise
The costs imposed by noise lead to efforts to measure, manage and mitigate. Airports can bear substantial costs, for example at the high end of the scale, Amsterdam Schiphol spent approximately 644.6m largely on insulation between 1984 and 2005.193 Nevertheless this only amounted to 0.58 per passenger. Whilst manufacturers have produced quieter aircraft, there is a trade-off between achieving energy efficiency and quieter design and operation. The benefits of any mitigation activity should outweigh the costs. The costs of mitigation are relatively straightforward to estimate, as they have a market price of implementation and maintenance, in the case of noise insulation or barriers, or of estimating forgone benefits, for instance, of noise curfews. It is also rational to compare the costs of different routes to achieving a noise reduction target, for example through regulation or market incentives. Once both the costs of noise and any additional costs of mitigation are established; cost benefit analysis (CBA) can be used to guide towards solutions with the highest net benefits.

9.6 Conclusions
Economic valuation of noise nuisance and health effects is necessary and robust values are available. Most importantly, these values are applied and used in decision making. Meta-analysis of both hedonic pricing and stated preference studies suggests that these approaches, when properly applied, deliver robust values of noise nuisance. These preference-based approaches do not capture the health effects of noise that are not perceived by the exposed population. The impact pathway approach provides non-market values for these health effects. However, IP does not value annoyance at levels less than "highly annoyed", has a less well developed evidence base than HP and SP, and requires more steps that have the potential to introduce more error. Furthermore, HP and SP meta-analyses have improved the transferability of values providing confidence intervals for their variation, whereas there is no robust evidence on value transferability for the IP approach. This approach should be viewed with caution in the absence of a well-developed evidence base, and especially in the case of annoyance effects perceived by the exposed populations, for which robust values of noise nuisance can be delivered by tested methods.

CHAPTER 10. OVERALL CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE WORK
This paper has provided an overview of the many different aircraft noise impacts. There is substantial evidence that increases in noise levels lead to increases in community annoyance, but there are other non-acoustical contributors to annoyance. In future work, existing exposure-response functions should be updated and diversified to account for various acoustic and non-acoustic factors. The difference between a high rate change and a low rate change situation seems to be particularly important.
Undisturbed sleep is a prerequisite for high daytime performance, well-being and health. Aircraft noise can disturb sleep and impair sleep recuperation. Further research is needed to (a) derive reliable exposure-response relationships between aircraft noise exposure and sleep disturbance, (b) explore the link between noise-induced sleep disturbance and long-term health consequences, (c) investigate vulnerable populations, and (d) demonstrate the effectiveness of noise mitigation strategies. This research will inform political decision making and help mitigate the effects of aircraft noise on sleep.
Epidemiological evidence from a systematic review published in 2018 covering studies up to 2016 and subsequent published studies involving several million participants show associations of aircraft noise with ischaemic heart disease. This is consistent with the evidence for road traffic noise, with larger numbers of studies. There is biological plausibility for impacts of noise on health and experimental evidence of effects of noise on the mechanistic pathways relating to cardiovascular disease, supporting the likelihood that associations are causal. Associations between aircraft noise and hypertension or stroke are less consistent across epidemiological studies, but other biological mechanisms than hypertension are available to explain associations with heart disease. However, the evidence base for aircraft noise remains limited and further research may result in changes to exposure-response relationships with cardiovascular disease, such as those derived from the systematic review of studies published in 2018. The evidence base is limited for non-cardiovascular outcomes; further research is particularly needed on diabetes and obesity, mental health, and pregnancy and birth outcomes. Further research is also needed using additional noise metrics, including those that better characterise air traffic events than average sound level (e.g. number of events above a certain noise threshold) and that consider time period (e.g. late evening and early morning).
There is robust evidence for an effect of aircraft noise exposure on children's cognitive skills such as reading and memory, as well as on standardized academic test scores. Future research needs to test the different mechanisms and to inform key individuals who can intervene on the behalf of exposed children. Longitudinal studies over the lifecourse need to be conducted.
While some surveys suggest a higher response to helicopter noise than to noise from fixed-wing aircraft, any observed differences in annoyance seem to heavily depend on non-acoustic factors. Overall, there is no evidence for a pronounced difference between response to fixed-wing and to rotary wing aircraft at equal noise levels that would justify a stricter evaluation of helicopter noise. Only when the helicopter noise is characterized by a large degree of low-frequency energy, which may produce rattle noise or vibration in buildings, there is evidence that annoyance is markedly increased. Further research should

10A-28

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

consider the consequences of rattle noise to the evaluation of helicopter noise, as well as the important role of non-acoustic factors.

Using laboratory simulators and testing in the field with special aircraft manoeuvers, progress has been made on understanding and predicting human response to sonic boom noise from overflight of new proposed quiet supersonic aircraft. To confirm these results and extend the applicability of derived models, a new low boom flight demonstrator aircraft is being built to conduct sonic boom community response studies. Plans are underway for designing these experiments to develop exposure-response models for this new kind of quiet supersonic aircraft. Several aspects of human response to low-boom supersonic flight still remain to be researched. Subjective studies have not fully investigated perception of focus booms, booms from other parts of the trajectory outside the cruise portion, noise in the shadow zone beyond lateral cut-off, Mach cut-off booms, and secondary booms. In addition, sleep disturbance relating to low-boom supersonic cruise flight or any of these other conditions has not been studied. Finally, community studies are needed using quiet supersonic aircraft in areas where people are not accustomed to hearing sonic booms, in order to develop a dose-response relationship for this new sector of commercial transportation. Regarding the non-technical aspects of public acceptability for supersonic aircraft noise, there is nothing in the literature that directly applies. However, it may be possible in the future to draw from the existing literature on the topic of non-acoustical factors for subsonic aircraft noise. We are fortunate that there already have been many studies on how animals react to conventional sonic booms, and current thinking is that the new low-boom aircraft would even have less of an impact. It is still unknown if large animals with good low-frequency hearing such as elephants will respond any differently compared to the medium and small sized animals that have already been studied.

There is preliminary evidence that the public may be concerned with the new UAM noise sources intended for transportation and package delivery. Although there is only a very limited amount of research on subjective reaction to noise from these new aircraft types, indications that the noise characteristics differ from traditional aircraft warrant further research to understand and predict human perception of these sounds.

Evidence from hedonic pricing and stated preference studies suggests that these approaches, when properly applied, deliver robust monetary values of noise nuisance. Although the impact pathway approach additionally provides non-market values for health effects, it should be viewed with caution especially in the absence of a well-developed evidence base and evidence on value transferability. There remains a need for further research to improve the robustness of the impact pathway approach and comparisons with other approaches. A further issue is that of evidence for lower income countries which is very sparse.

Comparisons between aircraft noise impacts and other noise source impacts, such as rail, road, and industrial noise, are beyond the scope of this current white paper. Others have already pointed out some of the similarities and differences in impacts between different types of noise sources, so much of that information is currently available.194

There are several unique aspects of sonic booms that require different treatment from subsonic aircraft noise. The transient nature of the sonic boom and large amount of low-frequency energy in the signal result in a sound character that is perceived much differently than conventional aircraft. While subsonic aircraft noise is a concern near airports, the sonic booms from supersonic aircraft are created along the entire supersonic route and could potentially affect large segments of the population. Thus the existing methods and noise metrics for measuring and regulating aviation noise impacts cannot be used for supersonic aircraft.
With advances in aircraft shaping techniques, modern supersonic aircraft designs are predicted to create shaped, low-amplitude sonic booms heard on the ground that are much quieter than conventional sonic booms from military aircraft or the Concorde. The significant reduction in waveform amplitude and increase in rise time lead to a reduction in sound pressure level spectra, particularly at higher frequencies where the reduction can reach 60 dB. Accordingly, the loudness spectra are also reduced, by over a factor of 10 in sones over most of the frequency range critical to human hearing.
Historically, the maximum overpressure of the front shock of the waveform was used to describe the level of conventional N-wave sonic booms. Years of research using outdoor sonic boom simulators, however, resulted in identification of Perceived Level (PL) as a noise metric98,99 that works best for a variety of signature shapes.100 Annoyance to sonic booms as experienced indoors presents additional factors to consider that are related to the building environment.

A.1.2 Sonic boom noise generation for subjective studies
Laboratory simulators have been used effectively to study human annoyance to a broad range of sonic boom signals under controlled conditions.101 Simulators can reproduce measured booms as well as booms predicted for aircraft designs. They can also be used to study other boom-like waveforms to study human response to different parameters and interactions. The majority of simulators reproduce sonic booms as they would be experienced outdoors, although filtered outdoor waveforms or recordings of indoor waveforms have also been presented to estimate the indoor environment. These simulators, however, lack indoor realism because there is an absence of space and reverberation, secondary rattle and vibration, and overall aesthetic composition.
Most outdoor sonic boom simulators in existence today consist of an airtight, small rigid-walled booth. The cavity is driven with subwoofer loudspeakers to reproduce the low frequencies characteristic of sonic booms, while mid-range loudspeakers fill in the rest of the pertinent spectrum. Another simulator design

consists of a mobile trailer that creates a traveling wave using an array of loudspeakers, a folded horn, and an anechoic termination.102

High-quality headphones or earphones are also used to reproduce the audible content of sonic booms and secondary rattle noises typically encountered in indoor environments. Binaural signals have been used to approximate the auditory experience of sonic boom and rattle exposure in different-sized rooms, through the use of models and filtering.103,104 Some limitations of this playback equipment are the absence of experiencing the sounds in a real space with natural reverberation, the absence of tactile vibration, and decreased realism due to limited very low-frequency reproduction. High-quality systems of amplifiers and headphones have mitigated this last point somewhat, but the systems are still more limited than subwoofer systems for reproducing the full frequency content of the sonic booms.

Lastly, newer simulators allow for more realistic indoor soundscapes for investigating causes of elevated annoyance to sonic booms experienced indoors. One configuration105 consists of a small booth that can be configured for indoor listening using a partition with a window. Another installation106 called the Interior Effects Room (IER) at NASA Langley Research Center consists of a small room configured as a living room with loudspeaker playback over arrays adjacent to two exterior walls of the simulator. The realistic indoor soundscape and environment, augmented with the ability to control secondary rattle noises and vibration, have enabled systematic studies of the factors contributing to human annoyance to sonic booms.

Sonic boom subjective studies have also been conducted with real supersonic overflight of an aircraft. In the past, these studies were limited to assessing response to very loud booms, usually produced with military aircraft. However, a special flight manoeuver called a low-boom dive has been developed107 to mimic the lower amplitudes at the ground that would be expected from supersonic overflight of future aircraft. By adjusting the location of the dive, the ground sonic boom can be varied in level over a small geographic area. This manoeuver has been used successfully in several field studies to create a variety of boom loudness levels that would otherwise not be possible with today's aircraft in steady, level flight.

A.1.3 Human response studies
Human response to outdoor booms
Many human response tests were performed in NASA's outdoor sonic boom simulator100 in the 1990s. These laboratory studies were designed to investigate a wide range of shaped sonic boom signatures and to gather human perception of loudness and annoyance to these sounds. Several noise metrics were evaluated for their ability to predict the subjective response. Shaped booms were rated less loud than symmetric N-waves, and PL was found to be the best noise metric for describing subjective effects both outdoors and indoors. The metric PL has hence been used widely to design and assess sonic boom characteristics of supersonic aircraft. Conclusions on the indoor environment are limited because the waveforms were created by pre-filtering booms based on frequency-dependent noise reduction for transmission of sound into a typical house. An evaluation of the realism of outdoor boom simulation was conducted between three simulators and real booms from overflight of a supersonic aircraft.108 PL values were found to be highly correlated

10A-32

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

between field recordings and simulator reproduction, and results increased confidence in the use of simulators for human response testing. It was noted that very low frequency energy (less than 7 Hz) was not found to be significant for assessing realism to booms experienced in an outdoor environment.

Outdoor vs. indoor response

Some studies have been conducted to compare perception of sonic booms heard in indoor and outdoor environments. A field study conducted by NASA compared ratings from test subjects seated inside and outside a house overflown by a supersonic airplane, using the low-boom dive maneuver.109 Although the annoyance ratings showed that indoor and outdoor annoyance were the same for the same noise exposure, a post-test questionnaire highlighted an increase in annoyance indoors. This inconsistency could possibly be attributed to the methodology chosen or to the presence of a rattle indoors.
A series of subjective tests with playback of measured low-amplitude sonic booms was conducted110,111 to further explore the inconsistency discovered by Sullivan et al.109 Three different listening environments were explored, including headphones indoors, headphones outdoors, and an outdoor simulator,102 and the same set of signatures were used in each case. Indoor signatures were found to be more annoying than outdoor signatures regardless of listening environment, and signatures experienced indoors were considered more annoying.
A series of tests was also conducted by JAXA105 to evaluate both loudness and annoyance ratings of Nwaves with different amplitudes and rise times, using both indoor and outdoor configurations of their simulator. Different Japanese adjectives were evaluated for correspondence with the English words of loudness and annoyance. Most of the noise metrics investigated exhibited a high correlation with response, with indoor response being higher than outdoor response for the same loudness.
Given the evidence from older community studies101,112 and these more recent studies, it is expected that indoor annoyance will be higher than outdoor annoyance, due to several factors discussed in the following section.

Human response to indoor booms

In recent years, sonic boom subjective research has shifted to exploring perception of booms experienced indoors.104, 113-126 Initial studies in NASA's IER simulator found that boom amplitude and rise time persist as important factors for indoor response.113,114 Overall, the longer rise times of low booms result in
decreased annoyance.

A later study evaluated indoor annoyance to sonic booms predicted for sub-scale and full-scale supersonic aircraft, which have different low-frequency energy, even for the same overall loudness value.115,116 The test was conducted using shaped, low-amplitude booms for four classes of aircraft size from sub-scale demonstrator to full-sized airliner. For a given exterior PL, the annoyance to sub-scale aircraft booms was not significantly different than that for full-scale aircraft booms. This finding confirmed that exterior PL can be used to evaluate supersonic aircraft designs, regardless of size. These results help justify plans for

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

10A-33

use of a sub-scale demonstrator for community studies. However, results were limited to isolated booms with no rattle.

In order to address the concern from community studies that rattle is important to perception of sonic booms indoors, a series of tests was conducted to investigate human response to rattle and to combined boom and rattle.104 Using binaural recordings of rattle played back over headphones, the study found differences in annoyance between rattle sounds of the same PL. Rattle sounds from structural elements such as windows, walls, and doors were judged more annoying than rattle from smaller objects. Most combinations of boom and rattle were more annoying than the boom alone at equal PL, giving a rattle penalty of 3-9 dB, depending on the rattle type. This result confirms the elevated annoyance indoors when rattle is present. Lastly, standard loudness and sound quality metrics were found to be poor predictors of annoyance to rattle sounds and boom/rattle combinations, but hybrid models incorporating multiple metrics resulted in higher correlations with subjective data.

Rattle studies conducted in NASA's IER facility using a more realistic sonic boom playback and indoor environment117-119 found that rattle increased indoor annoyance. Window rattle sounds reproduced for a variety of window types demonstrated that the average increase in annoyance due to rattle was equivalent to an increase in exterior boom PL of 4 dB, confirming the headphone test rattle penalty of 3-9 dB.

Two vibration studies were also conducted in the IER to investigate the effect of vibration on annoyance to sonic booms.120-123 The vibration condition was varied using vibration isolators on the test chair legs and in the second study, shakers attached to the seat bottom. The shaker signals were determined through structural modeling for an ensemble of approximately 6000 houses with varied physical properties, and the levels from the 84th and 99th percentile of the predicted peak acceleration distribution were chosen.124 Between the two studies, vibration penalties up to 10 dB were observed, indicating that vibration also plays a role in indoor perception of sonic booms.

Another possible factor in human response to sonic booms is the startle experienced due to the transient nature of the boom. Earphone studies examined annoyance, startle, and loudness ratings for impulsive sounds including sonic booms.125,126 The startle ratings were strongly correlated with annoyance, and the importance of the abruptness of the initial shock and resulting high-frequency energy were highlighted. Subjective judgments of startle were then compared to physiological responses using measured skin conductance, heart rate, and electrical activity of three neck muscles. Subject-to-subject and day-to-day variability in the physiological responses were observed, and their association with startle were rare. It was concluded that low booms are below the threshold of consistent physiological startle responses using the current measurement techniques.

Community studies

A community study was conducted of the response of 100 Edwards Air Force Base (EAFB, USA)
residents to sonic booms, ranging from low amplitude using the low-boom dive manoeuver to higher amplitude from conventional overflight.127,128 Although the study was primarily a methodological test in
preparation for future studies with a low-boom demonstration aircraft, the daily annoyance results are remarkably similar to those from the 1960s Oklahoma City test.129 Lessons learned from this test are

10A-34

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

being used to develop follow-on risk reduction studies in preparation for community testing with a low-boom flight demonstrator aircraft.

A.1.4 Sonic boom metrics evaluation
Since no international standard exists for defining a sonic boom metric, there is a need to identify noise metrics to quantify the noise exposure dose in dose-response curves of community test data. A study was conducted to combine results from several years of laboratory testing into a meta-analysis to evaluate candidate noise metrics, with the objective of identifying the best subset of metrics.130 A meta-analysis was chosen because there was no clear preferred metric. Some metrics performed relatively better than other metrics in some studies, while the metrics ranking was very different for other studies. Some studies showed low or high correlations of metrics with human response in general for all metrics, compared to other studies.
An exhaustive list of approximately 70 metrics was compiled from standards and literature; expert judgment, including consideration of non-acoustic factors, resulted in 25 metrics being chosen for quantitative analysis. Different metrics treat lower frequencies differently, which is critical for describing sonic boom noise. The candidates were grouped into three categories: engineering metrics that describe aspects of the sound, loudness metrics that attempt to account for human perception of sound, and "hybrid" metrics that combine several metrics. Using three laboratory studies of human response to isolated outdoor and indoor booms, eight metrics were retained.130 Additional analysis with two more laboratory studies on rattle and vibration effects reduced the number to six metrics: ASEL, BSEL, DSEL, ESEL (A-, B-, D-, and E-weighted sound exposure levels, respectively), PL, and ISBAP (indoor sonic boom annoyance predictor).131 This set of six metrics will be used by NASA in development of dose-response curves from future studies of community response to sonic booms.

A.1.5 Conclusions
Sonic boom simulators and special aircraft manoeuvers have been used to investigate human annoyance to sonic booms in outdoor and indoor environments. The most important factors have been studied separately to shed light on the role they each play in human perception. Studies have confirmed the viability of using an outdoor metric to predict human response indoors, despite differences in noise dose indoors. Results indicate that low-amplitude shaped sonic booms are much less annoying than conventional sonic booms, although annoyance levels need to be confirmed with community testing.
Laboratory test results have been used in meta-analyses to evaluate candidate noise metrics, and six metrics are recommended for further study. This subset of metrics will be used by NASA in future dose-response curve analyses of community field studies using a purpose-built low-boom flight demonstrator. Other factors not considered in the subjective studies to date include: focus boom, booms from other parts of the trajectory outside the cruise design point, secondary booms, noise in the shadow zone beyond lateral cut-off, Mach cut-off booms, and sleep disturbance relating to any of these conditions.

A2. Non-technical aspects of public acceptability for sonic boom

As most people are not yet familiar with the concept of quiet supersonic civilian flight that may be developed in the future, it is likely that some individuals will assume future supersonic flights will be very much like those of Concorde or today's military aircraft, each creating loud sounds both on take-off and approach to landing as well as during supersonic cruise. In contrast, some members of the population could very well not be aware of noise concerns regarding supersonic flight from years ago, and hence, would be more open to this new transportation option. Therefore, it seems likely that, from the start, the public will have mixed reactions to future supersonic aircraft, without even having heard them.

The CAEP Steering Group requested that its Impacts and Science Group (ISG) investigate the "non-technical aspects of public acceptability" for the noise of future supersonic civilian aircraft. There is no peer-reviewed literature available to easily address this topic. At the Aviation Noise Impacts Workshop held in Montreal, forming the basis of the present white paper, an open discussion was held on the topic by the attending scientific experts. It became clear during the discussion that there were some parallels between the "non-technical aspects of public acceptability" and the area known as "non-acoustical factors" of noise annoyance research, previously described in this paper for subsonic aircraft.

Currently there are no studies available to compare attitudes and/or reactions of the public between subsonic and supersonic aircraft noise. Referring back to the section of this white paper on community annoyance briefly, the population usually does not think of the benefits of air travel when assessing their tolerance to aircraft-generated noise, and there is no reason to think there will be differences in these tolerances between subsonic and supersonic aircraft. There is also no reason to believe that a lack of trust in and/or sensitivity to fair treatment by politicians, airports, airlines, and manufacturers would be any different between subsonic and supersonic travel. So much of the knowledge regarding "non-acoustical factors" of annoyance may well also apply to the "non-technical aspects of public acceptability." Hence, the applicability of our knowledge of "non-acoustical factors" to the issues of "non-technical aspects of public acceptability" should be explored in the future. ISG will continue to study this issue, but it is unlikely that our knowledge, based in science, will change in the next few years regarding public acceptability to new supersonic noise sources.

A3. Impacts of sonic booms on animals

Animals can be affected by aviation operations, and the impact of supersonic aircraft noise (sonic boom) has been a topic of discussion since the 1960s when the Concorde and the U.S. SST programs were initiated. There is a sizable existing literature regarding effects of sonic boom noise on animals, both wild and domesticated. It should be noted that all past studies were primarily concerned with N-wave sonic booms with amplitudes determined by civilian and military supersonic aircraft. No studies have been conducted thus far examining the effects of low-boom supersonic aircraft, now on the drawing board, on animals.

During the 1960s and 1970s the emphasis was on farm animals and potential adverse effects of sonic booms and their economic consequences. The concern was that operators of supersonic aircraft might have to pay damages via court orders. For either low-altitude flights or accidental incidents of high-amplitude focused sonic booms, military supersonic aircraft can cause breaking of windows or cracking of plaster in buildings, resulting in damages that must be compensated. Clearly, the developers of supersonic passenger aircraft and the regulatory authorities wanted to avoid such situations. Some of the primary references for the studies of the time are (Runyan & Kane, 1973; Bell, 1972; Cottereau, 1972; and Bond, 1971).133-136

Bell notes that during the period 1961 to 1970, the U.S. Air Force received claims of almost 900,000 USD but paid out about 128,000 USD in awards. Over 100,000 USD of those awards were for mink, a type of animal used to make warm coats. Because of their monetary value, there were several controlled experiments conducted in which mink were exposed to real and simulated sonic booms. It was noted that female kits may be alerted, pause in activity, and look around for sources of the sound. Sleeping females may awaken and mating pairs may show momentary alertness, but the mating ritual is not disturbed. No wounding, killing, carrying or burying of kits in the nests of females were observed. One study observed that the reactions of mink to barking dogs, truck noises, or mine blasting were similar to their reactions to sonic booms. Bell noted that domestic or pet animals may react to sonic booms, and simple startle is the most common response. Occasionally reactions such as trampling, moving, raising the head, stampeding, jumping, or running may be observed due to sonic boom. Avian species occasionally will run, fly, or crowd. It was noted that these reactions are similar to those due to subsonic airplane or helicopter flights, barking dogs, or other sudden noises. Regarding studies of wild animals and to animals in zoos, it was reported that observations of deer, reindeer, and some zoo animals showed no reaction or only minimal and momentary reactions such as raising the head, pricking the ears, or scenting the air. The Federal Aviation Administration funded a study on the effects of sonic boom on fish.137 The conclusion of the study was that sonic booms have no effects on developing fish eggs or fish. It was suggested that the pressure of a sonic boom was akin to the pressure of a pebble, stone, or boulder being dropped into water, and that this should be investigated in future studies. No follow-up studies are in the literature.

Later in the 1980s and early 1990s the emphasis switched to the studies on the hatchability of eggs and to studies conducted by the United States Air Force. The Air Force program with interest in this topic was NSBIT ADPO, the Noise and Sonic Boom Impact Technology Aerospace-Medical Division Program Office. The program director during 1989-1994 was Robert Kull, and he at the time chaired the "Noise and Animals" team of ICBEN. That team no longer exists. The two large detailed literature reviews of the

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

10A-37

time were (Kull and Fisher, 1987; and Manci, et al., 1988).138-139 In one of his unpublished overview presentations of the time Kull noted that it was difficult to observe animals in their natural environment, it's difficult to measure the noise exposure at the animal's position, the species of concern are usually low in population size and laws and/or regulations restrict access to those animals, there are thousands of species, the animals cannot be interviewed, the animals seem to habituate quickly, and terrestrial animals are usually not exposed for long periods or high levels. Each of these points make it a challenge to get the same types of impacts data for animals that we can get for the human population.

There were a number of studies examining the possibility that chicken or other avian eggs might not hatch
or might be cracked by sonic booms. In 1972 Bell reported on a number of studies in the 1960s where egg hatchability was not affected by sonic booms. A later study in 1994 by Bowles et al. showed similar results.140 However, there was one report from 1970 that a mass hatching failure of Sooty Tern eggs might have been caused by sonic booms.141 This prompted additional research, and subsequent detailed studies142,143 that showed this mass hatching failure was very likely not caused by sonic booms. It was
suggested that it was much more likely that a predator, weather, lack of food, or insects caused the incident. Another study from this period noted that nesting peregrine falcons and other raptors were often minimally affected by mid to high- altitude sonic booms, showing no effects on their production of offspring. Overall, it was reported that adult birds would sometimes be alerted or would flee their nests in response to a loud boom, but no productivity-limiting responses were detected.144

Another species studied in the 1990s was the Desert Tortoise (Gopherus Agassizii). Bowles et al. reported in 1999 that simulated carpet sonic booms "did not stimulate any significant changes in behavior other than brief bouts of looking." Overall, it was concluded that the Desert Tortoise does not have an acoustic startle response.145 It should be noted that this was a very complete study where the animals' hearing, metabolic rate, heart rate, oxygen consumption, etc. were very carefully monitored throughout the testing. During the 1990s and early 2000s NASA undertook a number of studies to assess the impact of overwater N-wave sonic booms on marine mammals, including both pinnipeds and whales. NASA's aim was to ensure that N-wave booms would be compliant with existing U.S. regulations such as the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA). Physics tells us that when a sonic boom traveling through air impinges on the water that the pressure just above the air/water interface must be the same as the pressure just below the air/water interface, i.e. the boundary condition is matched. This is true for any aircraft traveling at a speed of Mach 3 or less. Also there is a large density change, a factor of about 800, between air and water. This and the sound speed difference between air and water means that almost zero acoustic energy is transferred between the air and water. Thus although there is a pressure created in the water due to sonic booms in air, there is no propagating wave into the water. So the pressure disturbance in the water hugs the surface, and the sound pressure decays exponentially with depth. High frequencies (hundreds of hertz or higher) die off very fast with depth, but some very low frequencies penetrate to distances of about 50 m. Hence whales, which come up to breath air at the surface, would likely hear sounds created by sonic booms when they are very near the surface. They will hear nothing if they are diving to deep depths. In 2001 Rochat and Sparrow conducted a computational study to see if swell on the ocean surface could focus this sound energy and create acoustic hot spots, but this focusing was very small and had little effect.146

10A-38

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

The theory to predict N-wave sonic boom penetration into the ocean was developed in the 1960s, and this theory was updated by Sparrow and Ferguson in 1997 to handle arbitrary sonic boom signatures.147 The theory was tested in the field with hydrophones (underwater microphones) deployed by boats with a supersonic aircraft overhead by Sohn et al. in 2000.148 The acquired field data closely matched the simulation predictions, and these theories and results were summarized in a review paper by Sparrow in 2002.149 It should be noted that the sonic boom sounds that might be heard underwater are at levels much less than if a sound source is making sound IN the water. In that case, there is no mismatch between the density and speed of sound as in the case of sonic booms, and the sound will propagate very effectively. This has been seen for other types of anthropogenic underwater noise such as active sonar from military operations, underwater explosions, and pile driving. Such high amplitude underwater noises are known to create problems for underwater marine life and their habitats. So there are good physical reasons why sonic booms are not in the same category and will not cause similar problems for marine life.

For the case of pinnipeds such as walrus, sea lions, seals, etc., NASA sponsored studies to measure the hearing thresholds of animals such as harbour seals, elephant seals, and the California sea lion. The results in the lab showed that after exposure to N-wave booms, that there was no evidence of temporary hearing loss for these animals.150,151 An additional field study of a colony of seals regularly exposed to Concorde sonic booms sheds additional light.152 Gray and harbour seals located on Sable Island, 163 km off the coast of Nova Scotia, Canada, were regularly exposed to sonic booms from Concorde flights during the 1990s. A team from the National Zoo of the United States travelled to the island and observed the seals during 3 weeks in January 1997 and during 3 additional weeks in June 1998. The team and the seals heard Concorde booms about 3 times per day during these periods. It was noted152 that "No significant differences in the behaviour or beach counts following sonic booms, regardless of the season" and that the booms "do not substantially affect the breeding behaviour of gray or harbour seals." The takeaway from this study is that over time the animals very likely habituated to the N-wave Concorde booms, and the animals showed no adverse effects whatsoever due to regular exposure to the N-wave booms.

During the later 2000s and in the last few years there has been little new research on supersonic aircraft noise effects on animals, but a number of studies have been conducted on subsonic aviation and other transportation noise and their effects on wildlife. Some of this research has been funded by the United States National Park Service. A short overview of some of this recent research is now provided, and some review articles are now summarized.

Hanson in 2008 noted that high speed train noise with high levels can cause effects on wildlife and livestock.153 Barber, Crooks, and Fristrup in their extensive 2010 review on chronic noise exposure for terrestrial organisms stated that there is a "preponderance" of "suggestive but inconclusive evidence" that noise "masking is substantially altering ecosystems."154 A further extensive review by Shannon et al. in 2016 noted that anthropogenic "noise is detrimental."155
A number of recent papers found no adverse effects on animals from aircraft noise.156-159 Other papers found that high levels of noise could cause effects. Barber et al. in 2011 cited studies of clear negative relationships between traffic noise on roads and birds nesting near the roads.160 Bunkley et al. in 2017

Appendix to the Report on Agenda Item 10

10A-39

showed that high levels of compressor noise could be impactful.161 In a laboratory study in 2014 Schmidt et al. described that male cricket calls were not heard by females when noise was present.162

In 2017 Damsky and Gall noted that anthropogenic noise can affect the behaviour of songbirds.163 In cases where the noises under study were relatively continuous there is a distinct possibility of interference with communication between members of a species and disruption of auditory cues that are part of predator/prey relationships.

In summary an extensive literature is available for N-wave sonic booms and their effects on a range of animals. Some animals such as the Desert Tortoise do not startle at all, but many animals react to sudden noises the same way that humans do. It is likely that hearing an isolated N-wave sonic boom would cause momentary startle in some animals. As there are many species of animals, there are many that have not been studied. These include large animals such as elephants and rhinoceroses that have good low-frequency hearing. Such animals can communicate over many kilometres of distance because of this low-frequency hearing capability.164 For other sound sources, there is a body of literature showing that louder and continuous sources have effects on animal communication. And it is well established that underwater sound sources with high sound levels such as active sonar, pile driving, etc. can have detrimental effects on marine life.

The issue of startle and habituation due to sonic boom is still an open research question. However, the Perry et al. 2002 study clearly points to the likelihood that some animals will habituate to hearing N-wave sonic booms on a regular basis.152 Based on the known hearing characteristics of many animal species, there is little reason to expect hearing damage from exposure to infrequent sonic booms from aircraft at cruise altitudes. Other adverse long-term effects due to sonic boom exposure also seem unlikely, but such long-term studies have not been conducted.

For overall conclusions regarding en-route supersonic aircraft noise, see Sections 7 and 10 of this white paper.

Understanding Aviation Stakeholder Community Engagement Needs in the Context of Delivering ATM Change

Having completed the report on PBN and community engagement, discussions at WG2 focused on the desire to continue working on this subject and to understand the needs of States and other stakeholders in the area of community engagement relating to deploying change in the ATM system. This task seeks views from States regarding their needs on community engagement practices and lessons learned.

Operational Opportunities to Reduce Aircraft Noise

Continue with CAEP/11, task O.02, to develop an ICAO document "Operational Opportunities to Reduce Aircraft Noise", to completion. The task will be aimed at identifying and highlighting good practices and the operational opportunities to minimize aircraft noise from aircraft operations where practicable and operationally safe to do so.

Report

O.03

Environmental Metrics of relevance to the Global Aviation System

During the CAEP/11 cycle, WG2 was requested to consider the possibility to develop environmental KPIs for use in an ATM context. The work conducted during the CAEP/10 cycle by CAEP WG2 (Task O.12) in coordination with WG1 and WG3, demonstrated that the current level of understanding of the environmental impacts of the current GANP KPIs would not allow to satisfactorily address the definition of environmental indicator. Task O.12 led to the conclusion that further work would be necessary to understand better current environmental metrics used by States and operational stakeholders beyond an ATM environment, to assess the performance of all players within the global aviation system.

Environmental Impact of Unmanned Aircraft Operations at and around airports

As Unmanned Aircraft (UA) operations

are increasing and their applications

diversifying (wildfire mapping, disaster

management, weather/environment

monitoring, package delivery/freight

transport), Remotely Piloted Aircraft

(RPA) are expected to be ultimately

integrated into airspace for international,

instrument flight rules (IFR) operations.

ICAO has developed a work programme

to review the relevant Annexes to the

Chicago Convention and integrate

RPAs-related element. The 13th Air

Navigation Conference requested ICAO

to "provide an update on a fully

integrated approach for ICAO's RPAS

related work programme to the 40th

Session of the Assembly in 2019"

(ANC/13). While CAEP WG1 (noise) is

responsible for assessing the noise

certification impacts of RPAs, it is

proposed that CAEP gains

understanding on the impact of RPAS

operations at and around airports and

communicates this information to

Council. The objective would be to get a

snapshot of the current situation at

international airports throughout the

world and to collect the views from

aviation stakeholders on their

assessment of the impact of RPAS

operations on their own activities. This

would allow responding to very concrete

questions, such as the potential need for

dedicated infrastructure at airports, the

ability of operational stakeholders to

pursue the implementation of ATM-

related

changes

delivering

environmental benefits.
