The airport also contracts with a telephonic interpretation service to provide ondemand telephone interpretation services to beneficiaries. • The Port of Seattle has 16 ‘‘Pathfinders’’ on staff who act as guides and information sources throughout the Seattle Tacoma International Airport. A key selection criterion for Pathfinders is multilingual ability. The Pathfinders collectively speak 15 languages and are often called on to act as interpreters for travelers who do not speak English. Pathfinders greet all international flights and are assigned to do so based on language skills. • Seattle Tacoma International Airport’s trains carry announcements in English, Japanese, and Korean.

ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces its determination that the noise exposure maps submitted by the City of Cincinnati for the Cincinnati-Municipal Lunken Airport under the provisions of the Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act (Act), 49 U.S.C. 47501, et seq. and the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR), 14 CFR part 150 (part 150) are in compliance with applicable requirements. DATES: The effective date of the FAA’s determination on the noise exposure maps is November 28, 2005. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Brad Davidson, Detroit Airports District Office, 11677 South Wayne Road, Suite 107, Romulus, Michigan 48174, 734– 229–2900. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA finds that the noise exposure maps submitted for Cincinnati-Municipal Lunken Airport are in compliance with applicable requirements of part 150, effective November 28, 2005. Under 49 U.S.C. 47503 of the Act, an airport operator may submit noise exposure maps to the FAA 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 part 150, promulgated pursuant to the Act, may submit a noise compatibility program VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:29 Dec 13, 2005 Jkt 208001 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. The FAA has completed its review of the noise exposure maps and accompanying documentation submitted by the City of Cincinnati. The documentation that constitutes the ‘‘noise exposure maps’’ as defined in 14 CFR 150.7 includes: Existing 2002 Noise Exposure Map (FAR part 150 Noise Compatibility Program, volume 1, exhibit 4.4–1) and Future Baseline 2007 Noise Exposure Map (FAR part 150 Noise Compatibility Program, volume 1, exhibit 5.3–1). The FAA has determined that these noise exposure maps and accompanying documentation are in compliance with applicable requirements. This determination is effective on November 28, 2005. 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 part 150. Such determination does not constitute approval of the applicant’s data, information or plans, or 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.

Questions may be directed to the individual named above under the heading FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. Issued in Romulus, Michigan, November 28, 2005. Irene R.
