determination that the noise exposure
maps submitted by City of San Antonio
Aviation Department for San Antonio

Sfmt 4703
Under 49 U.S.C., section 47503 (the
Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement
Act, hereinafter referred to as ‘‘the
Act’’), an airport operator may submit to
the FAA noise exposure maps which
meet applicable regulations and which
depict non-compatible land uses as of
the date of submission of such maps, a
description of projected aircraft
operations, and the ways in which such
operations will affect such maps. The
Act requires such maps to be developed
in consultation with interested and
affected parties in the local community,
government agencies, and persons using
the airport.
An airport operator who has
submitted noise exposure maps that are
found by FAA to be in compliance with
the requirements of Federal Aviation
Regulations (FAR) Part 150,
promulgated pursuant to the Act, may
submit a noise compatibility program
for FAA approval which sets forth the
measures the operator has taken or
proposes to take to reduce existing noncompatible uses and prevent the
introduction of additional noncompatible uses.
City of San Antonio Aviation
Department submitted to the FAA on
December 17, 2014 noise exposure
maps, descriptions and other
documentation that were produced
during the Part 150 Noise Exposure Map
Update and Noise Compatibility
Program Revision for San Antonio
International Airport, December 2014. It
was requested that the FAA review this
material as the noise exposure maps, as
described in section 47503 of the Act,
and that the noise mitigation measures,
to be implemented jointly by the airport
and surrounding communities, be
approved as a noise compatibility
program under section 47504 of the Act.
The FAA has completed its review of
the noise exposure maps and related
descriptions submitted by City of San
Antonio Aviation Department. The
specific documentation determined to
constitute the noise exposure maps
includes: Figure 10—Existing (2014)
NEM and Figure 11—Forecast (2019)
NEM, Figure 3—Existing SAT Airport
Layout, Figure 6—Representative
Sample of Modeled Arrival Flight
Tracks (2014 & 2019), Figure 7—

Estimated Residential Population within
2014 and 2019 DNL Contours. The FAA
has determined that these maps for San
Antonio International Airport are in
compliance with applicable
requirements. This determination is
effective on January 12, 2015. FAA’s
determination on an airport operator’s
noise exposure maps is limited to a
finding that the maps were developed in
accordance with the procedures
contained in appendix A of FAR Part
150. Such determination does not
constitute approval of the applicant’s
data, information or plans, or constitute
a commitment to approve a noise
compatibility program or to fund the
implementation of that program.
If questions arise concerning the
precise relationship of specific
properties to noise exposure contours
depicted on a noise exposure map
submitted under section 47503 of the
Act, it should be noted that the FAA is
not involved in any way in determining
the relative locations of specific
properties with regard to the depicted
noise contours, or in interpreting the
noise exposure maps to resolve
questions concerning, for example,
which properties should be covered by
the provisions of section 47506 of the
Act. These functions are inseparable
from the ultimate land use control and
planning responsibilities of local
government. These local responsibilities
are not changed in any way under Part
150 or through FAA’s review of noise
exposure maps. Therefore, the
responsibility for the detailed
overlaying of noise exposure contours
onto the map depicting properties on
the surface rests exclusively with the
airport operator that submitted those
maps, or with those public agencies and
planning agencies with which
consultation is required under section
47503 of the Act. The FAA has relied on
the certification by the airport operator,
under section 150.21 of FAR Part 150,
that the statutorily required consultation
has been accomplished.
The FAA has formally received the
noise compatibility program for San
Antonio International Airport, also
effective on January 12, 2015.
Preliminary review of the submitted
material indicates that it conforms to the
requirements for the submittal of noise
compatibility programs, but that further
review will be necessary prior to
approval or disapproval of the program.
The formal review period, limited by
law to a maximum of 180 days, will be
completed on or before July 11, 2015.
The FAA’s detailed evaluation will be
conducted under the provisions of 14
CFR part 150, section 150.33. The
primary considerations in the
VerDate Sep<11>2014

evaluation process are whether the
proposed measures may reduce the level
of aviation safety, create an undue
burden on interstate or foreign
commerce, or be reasonably consistent
with obtaining the goal of reducing
existing non-compatible land uses and
preventing the introduction of
additional non-compatible land uses.
Interested persons are invited to
comment on the proposed program with
specific reference to these factors. All
comments, other than those properly
addressed to local land use authorities,
will be considered by the FAA to the
extent practicable. Copies of the noise
exposure maps, the FAA’s evaluation of
the maps, and the proposed noise
compatibility program are available for
examination at the following locations:

exposure map, and that this program will be approved or disapproved on
or before July 11, 2015.
DATES: Effective: The effective date of the FAA's determination on the
noise exposure maps and of the start of its review of the associated
noise compatibility program is January 12, 2015. The public comment
period ends March 13, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA finds
that the noise exposure maps submitted for San Antonio International
Airport are in compliance with applicable requirements of Part 150,
effective January 12, 2015. Further, FAA is reviewing a proposed noise
compatibility program for that airport which will be approved or

availability of this program for public review and comment.
Under 49 U.S.C., section 47503 (the Aviation Safety and Noise
Abatement Act, hereinafter referred to as ``the Act''), an airport
operator may submit to the FAA noise exposure maps which meet
applicable regulations and which depict non-compatible land uses as of
the date of submission of such maps, a description of projected
aircraft operations, and the ways in which such operations will affect
such maps. The Act requires such maps to be developed in consultation
with interested and affected parties in the local community, government
agencies, and persons using the airport.
An airport operator who has submitted noise exposure maps that are
found by FAA to be in compliance with the requirements of Federal
Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 150, promulgated pursuant to the Act,
may submit a noise compatibility program for FAA approval which sets
forth the measures the operator has taken or proposes to take to reduce
existing non-compatible uses and prevent the introduction of additional
non-compatible uses.
City of San Antonio Aviation Department submitted to the FAA on
December 17, 2014 noise exposure maps, descriptions and other
documentation that were produced during the Part 150 Noise Exposure Map
Update and Noise Compatibility Program Revision for San Antonio
International Airport, December 2014. It was requested that the FAA
review this material as the noise exposure maps, as described in
section 47503 of the Act, and that the noise mitigation measures, to be
implemented jointly by the airport and surrounding communities, be
approved as a noise compatibility program under section 47504 of the
Act.
The FAA has completed its review of the noise exposure maps and
related descriptions submitted by City of San Antonio Aviation
Department. The specific documentation determined to constitute the
noise exposure maps includes: Figure 10--Existing (2014) NEM and Figure
11--Forecast (2019) NEM, Figure 3--Existing SAT Airport Layout, Figure
6--Representative Sample of Modeled Arrival Flight Tracks (2014 &
2019), Figure 7--Representative Sample of Modeled Departure Flight
Tracks (2014 & 2019), Table 4--2014 Operations Summary, Table 5--

Operations Summary, Table 7--Modeled Average Daily Aircraft Operations
