The Board of Airport Zoning Appeals was
formed in 1968 to help enforce the BWI Airport
Noise Zone Regulations (Chapter 450, Acts of
1968). These regulations establish a "noise zone"
around BWI Airport. In this zone, new land devel-
opment is prohibited if it is incompatible with air-
port noise levels. The Board grants specific
variances from airport zoning regulations in cases
of practical difficulty or unnecessary hardship.
