Is the FAA following their published take off procedures for SSTIK and CNDEL?

52% of time for SSTIK and 10% of flights for CNDEL. Why?

Until we understand why the FAA is not following their written departure procedures, it is hard to comment as to where the waypoints should be moved. Currently the CNDEL waypoint seems to be ignored.

We do know that having planes fly further away is better. Higher over Brisbane does not work as there are limits as to how quickly the planes can ascend and does not mitigate against health concerns from the pollution. An extra 500 foot makes scarcely any difference to noise or pollution. And Santa Cruz is up in arms about the noise of planes that are twice as high as the current ones over Brisbane and they are descending. To reduce the noise and health concerns, the planes need to be further away.

The FAA tells us that the SSTIK flights are being vectored due to safety and separation concerns about flights from Oakland. If the CNDEL flights were to fly the published procedure, would the SSTIK flights need to be vectored?
