FUMES
Location: 2200 block 31st
St., Santa Monica, 90405
Date: 08-14-08
Time: past 2 weeks
Description: There has been
a white dusting in the atmosphere for the past 2 weeks, that has come in through my windows.
I have had to dust everything in the apt, at least once a day, and it just comes back.
I have severe persistent asthma, but I can't close the windows because it is still too hot. I was wondering it anyone else complained about the dust. In
about 12 hours it looks as if everything in my home is covered with baby powder. I
usually get a black smog that is concentrated especially on my fans I have in the windows.
This white dust though clogs the fan like a fiberous type almost cotton dust.
Well, thank-you for reading this. I am definitely getting an air conditioner
for next summer!

Date: 06-30-08
Time: Approx. 1:30 PM
Description: I was in my house,
when I realized a jet fume from an idling jet overtook the inside of my home. The noise was equally annoying. Unfortunately
I known too well what will fallow this event, more concentrated jet fuel will saturate the air over our neighborhood, and
poison our life AGAIN Before this happened, I closed the windows, picked up the phone and called SM Airport. I stated my complaint,
during the time the jet was still idling on the ground. I did not get the name of the gentlemen who was politely directed
me to another department./the jet was sill idling, even when I was off the phone, being very annoyed.

Time: All day long
Description: Me and my family experience noise so loud we have to stop talking to each other until after the
jet takes off. The fumes come into my bedroom through the back door. If the bathroom windows are open, they also come in that
way. My husband has a shop in our garage that he works in during the day. For at least a couple of years, he has gotten a
headache every afternoon. He had a check-up and determined it was not his sinuses. He finally had a brain scan recently done.
His throat is now constantly irritated in addition to the headaches. Something must be done, we are getting really sick of
this...literally. We have a nice patio out back that we cannot use because of these jets. The fumes will choke you and the
noise will damage your hearing.

Coffeehouse and the air was thick with jet fumes. No wind.
We arrived at the UnUrban a couple of minutes later and the air smelled exactly the same there, too. Who knows how far the fumes travel?
We should encourage residents who live farther from the airport to report fumes as well.

when only east side windows were open.
To get relief from all this, I decided to shut my windows now, which is why the next entry is 9/25
9/25/07 6:30 or 6:35 am - very loud bi-plane or prop plane right over our house! What about the

Description: Big jet screamed in low and woke us up at close to 2 AM! This
is unconscionable. These intrusions happen again and again throughout the weeks and months and years, and it is only getting
worse. The use of loud sounds and sleep deprivation are well known techniques of coercion and torture. STOP STOP STOP the

Thursday 9/13/07
7:30 pm fumes,
followed by jet noise (momentary jet power or movement), then a moment of quiet, then 7:31 pm takeoff. THERE IS A DISTINCT PATTERN HERE ON THE NW SIDE OF THE AIRPORT. FUMES TAKE ABOUT 1-5 MINUTES TO TRAVEL HERE BEFORE JETS TAKE OFF. THE 1 MINUTE FUME BLASTS I AM GUESSING ARE RELATED TO POSITIONING RIGHT BEFORE
TAKEOFF. WOULD HAVE TO OBSERVE THE JETS ON THE TARMAC TO BE MORE CERTAIN.
NOISE & FUMES
Location: 2600 block Barrington
Avenue, LA 90064
Date: every day
Time: mid afternoon
Description: Hello,
Several times through out the day, I smell really strong jet fuel fumes in my back yard, in the alley and the
large street of Barrington 40 feet radius around my apartment. The fumes enter my home and travel throughout the whole apartment.
At this point I get so mad as I have no where to go to get some fresh air. Some times the fumes saturate inside my garage
and when I open the door I get really nauseous from the smell. It irritates my nose and throat everyday, and i am really concerned
for my health as I am considering being pregnant in 2008. I am going to start writing down dates and times when I am bothered
by the smell/noise. The noise is also a big nuisance, a jet can take 30 minutes to leave and the constant sound and loudness
is really irritating. Thank you for reading my complaint; I have been wanted to do so for many years! Sincerely.

Location: 2600 block 33rd

Date: Thursday 9/6/07
Time: 10:25 pm
Description: OK I am onto something. Starting to notice a pattern
of the way that the fumes travel on the northeast area above the airport.
At 10:25 pm I smelled fumes.
At 10:27 pm I heard a jet take off.
It must be when they are turning around at the end of the runway before it takes off that shoots the fumes this
way. Gives us some idea of the rate of travel depending upon the direction that
the tail is pointing.

jet take-off at 10:45pm- I have to work at 5am and can not take these loud jet departures-This
is not fair- Please stop this unfriendly behavior-I do not need another BS phone call-This has got to STOP!!
This is a copy of my complaint I sent into the SM Airport Complaint form- All
they do is call back and tell me the same old BS-that all the jets are fine and under the DB level and everything is fine-
I've had it with the Airport Group-They do nothing-I doubt they even keep OUR complaints-

COMMENTS
Monday night a big jet came in low and loud just before midnight. Woke us up. Awhile
back, I was told that the reason there can't be a curfew on incoming aircraft is because in an emergency a plane might have
to land at SMO. It seems to me that very few curfew violations happen because of an emergency. Planes violate the curfew because
it is convenient for them. It would appear that any fine or warning means little or nothing to the privileged folks who choose
to disturb whole neighborhoods with their late night arrivals. They must feel very important! Nothing wrong with that, except
that everyone else is very important too.

Location: 23rd and Ashland
Date: 08/21/07
Time: 10:15 pm
Description: 2 very loud jets took of at around 10:15 pm then again at 10:30pm- Woke the baby up- I have been sick for 2 days and have stayed home from work- I can't believe how many
jets are using the airport-and how noisy they are- There must be a HUGE increase in traffic- I don't recall having this many
planes take-offs during the day? What is being done?

Time: Between 8 and 9:30
Description: During the above mentioned times a number of aircraft leaving Santa Monica flew above my home or turned north just before reaching my home. The planes that flew above my home the turned northward
just above my home. I understand the planes are supposed to reach the ocean before making turns. The noise and fumes made
me close my doors in order to be able to hear my family talk and certainly to avoid the fumes. Most of the aircraft that made
these north turns over our home did so between 8:45 and 9:30.

4:30 PM Description:
Two groups
of single engine planes, vintage in appearance just flew over my house at VERY low altitude and in such close formation it
looked like their wings were touching. The airspace over my house is not designated for thrill seekers risking their lives.
We live in a densely populated area with families and loads of children. Tell those (expletives edited out) to obey the law AND
NOT PUT US IN DANGER IN OUR OWN HOMES!!!!

pm and still going
Description: It is now nearly 4:30 I have been watching a hovering helicopter
for AT LEAST 20 minutes. I watched it hover practically over my neighbors home
in the middle of 32nd Street and then go in for a landing and then circle back around to somewhere around 31st Street for
a little variety, then it would shift back and forth between 31st and 32nd presumably to spread around the burden. It is still hovering. I noticed that they don’t log
these arrivals and departures on the flight tracker. I will investigate why or
why not.
At 4:29 while I was on the phone with you, there were 11 planes flying over the airport
for a memorial event.
