O’Hare Noise Complaint Website Now Operational

September 16, 2009

An O’Hare International Airport Web site launched in July for people to report aircraft-noise complaints online has been repaired and is now operational.

When the website was originally launched, suburban residents who tried to report complaints using the online complaint form discovered it would not accept addresses outside the city of Chicago.

The online site can be accessed by going to www.flychicago.com/environment/home.shtm and clicking on “Register Aircraft Noise Complaints Online.”
