Voluntary Noise Abatement Procedures
AVOID flight operations between 2200 and 0700 local.
Please observe this curfew unless an emergency exists.
Aircraft with a Gross Takeoff Operating Weight in excess of 12,500 pounds should not be operated before 7:00 AM.
The City of Driggs has adopted voluntary noise abatement procedures for the Driggs-Reed Memorial Airport. Pilots arriving and departing from the airport are requested to use every means at their disposal to reduce the impact of noise on the Teton Valley Community.
VFR ARRIVALS
Southwest over Pine Creek Pass, remain west of Highway 33, overflying the Teton River to avoid flying over residential zones from Victor to Driggs. Remain at or above 2000 feet AGL as long as practical before descending to pattern altitude.
Southeast over Teton Pass, follow Highway 33. Remain south of the town of Victor, fly northbound, west of Highway 33, over the Teton River to avoid flying over residential zones from Victor to Driggs. Remain at or above 2000 feet AGL as long as practical before descending to pattern altitude.
Northwest, West of Tetonia, proceed directly to the airport at 45°. Remain at or above 2000 feet AGL as long as practical before descending to pattern altitude.
North over Felt, remain west of Highway 32 and the town of Tetonia, then proceed directly to the airport at 45°. Remain at or above 2000 feet AGL as long as practical before descending to pattern altitude.
VFR DEPARTURES
Avoid unnecessary and lengthy ground run-ups, particularly for runway 4 departures.
Avoid departing over the city of Driggs. Avoid flying over neighborhoods and subdivisions to the east of Driggs.
Runway 22: Turn right to a heading of 240° as soon as practical to avoid homes in Huntsman Springs subdivision. Continue climbing until above 2000 feet AGL, if possible.
Runway 4: Turn left to a heading of 360°. Avoid flying over subdivisions east of Driggs.
Flight School Operations:
When practicing maneuvers, avoid flights over populated areas and developments (Driggs, Victor, Tetonia, Alta). When conditions and traffic permit, the requested practice area is north of Highway 33 and west of Highway 32.
General Noise Considerations:
When operating aircraft in Teton Valley, avoid flying over the city of Driggs, all neighborhoods east of Driggs, and the towns of Tetonia and Victor. Always fly at or above 2000 feet AGL in the valley until the descent to pattern altitude or landing configuration is required.
Note: The procedures described above are intended to be voluntary noise abatement procedures and are subject to pilot discretion for safety reasons.
