LAX RSI Program Overview
Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA} is excited to announce the new LAX Residential Sound Insulation Program (RSI Program} for
homeowners within the approved noise contours around LAX.
As part of its responsibility to the neighboring communities, LAWA is proud to administer the RSI Program for residents impacted byaircraft
noise within designated noise contours. The areas served by the LAX RSI Program consist of previously untreated units in close proximity to
the airport in the City of Los Angeles and the City of El Segundo.
The goal of the RSI Program is to ensure that treated homes achieve an improved interior noise level of at least five (5) decibels (dB) in Noise
Level Reduction (NLR). To achieve this goal, the RSI Program may retrofit exterior doors and windows, install a ventilation system and other
miscellaneous treatments - at no cost to the homeowner. The sound insulation treatments in eligible homes mayvary depending upon the
existing construction and historical designation of the home.
