MassPort has installed an additional noise monitoring device to record sound levels from flights on runway 33L. The device is on Denis Keohane’s property. Keohane, Chair of the Board of Selectmen, had been asked if he would be willing to house the device as MassPort had been unable to find a volunteer in the area.

Keohane said that they wanted to locate the device in the part of town where he lives (i.e. southwest Milton) and that the device will be there for approximately two weeks at which time it will be retrieved and the data collected will be analyzed.
