- two protection zones for the day and
- one protection zone for the night.
The noise protection zone comprises the area outside the airfield site. The noise protection zone for the respective airfield is defined by an ordinance of the state government.
No hospitals, old people's homes, recreation homes and similar facilities requiring protection to the same extent may be built in a noise protection zone. In the daytime protection zones of the noise protection area, the same applies to schools, kindergartens and similar facilities requiring protection to the same extent. The competent authority may grant exceptions if this is urgently required to provide the population with public facilities or otherwise in the public interest.
