Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 141 / Tuesday, July 24, 2007 / Notices
conducted from March 4, 2004 through
January 12, 2007. The Flagstaff Pulliam
Airport Noise Exposure Maps were
determined by FAA to be in compliance
with applicable requirements on April
7, 2005. Notice of this determination
was published in the Federal Register
on April 20, 2005.
The Flagstaff Pulliam Airport study
contains a proposed noise compatibility
program comprised of actions designed
for phased implementation by airport
management and adjacent jurisdictions
from May 7, 2007 to beyond the year
2012. It was requested that the FAA
evaluate and approve this material as a
Noise Compatibility Program as
described in 49 U.S.C. 47504 (formerly
Section 104(b) of the Act). The FAA
began its review of the program on
January 12, 2007, and was required by
a provision of the Act to approve or
disapprove the program within 180 days
(other than the use of new or modified
flight procedures for noise control).
Failure to approve or disapprove such
program within the 180-day period shall
be deemed to be an approval of such
program.
The submitted program contained 15
proposed actions for noise abatement,
noise mitigation, and land use planning
and program management on and off the
airport. The FAA completed its review
and determined that the procedural and
substantive requirements of the Act and
FAR Part 150 have been satisfied. The
overall program was approved by the
Manager of the Airports Division,
Western-Pacific Region, effective June
25, 2007.
Outright approval was granted for ten
(10) specific program measures. The
four (4) approved Noise Abatement
Element measures included such items
as: Runway 21 Departure Procedure for
piston aircraft weighing less than 12,500
pounds; discontinue intersection and
midfield takeoffs; Promote use of
Industry Standard Thrust Cut-Back
Procedures; Promote use of aircraft
Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA)
Noise Awareness Steps by light single
and twin-engine aircraft;
The three (3) approved Land Use
Planning Elements include such items
as: The city of Flagstaff should consider
revising their current project review
guidelines to incorporate noise-related
criteria. it would also be suitable to
include these guidelines within the
Flagstaff Regional Area Land Use and
Transportation Plan; the city of Flagstaff
and Coconino County should consider
revising its existing Airport Overlay
District to reflect the results of the noise
analysis conducted as part of this Part
150 Study. Additionally, Coconino
County should consider enacting an
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 211001
Airport overlay district for areas
contained within the AIA; the City of
Flagstaff and Coconino County should
consider amending their respective
building codes to incorporate
prescriptive noise standards;
The three (3) approved Program
Management Element measures
included such items as: Publish a pilot
guide; Monitor Implementation of the
Part 150 Noise compatibility Program;
Update Noise Exposure Maps and Noise
Compatibility Program.
FAA partially approved portions of
the following four (4) Land Use
Planning Measures: Consideration
should be given to re-designated
undeveloped parcels within the hybrid
60 DNL noise contour to a compatible
land use designation such as
commercial, industrial, or designated
open space as detailed in the Flagstaff
Area Regional Land Use and
Transportation Plan. That portion of the
‘‘hybrid’’ contour that depicts noise
from a 1991 airport master plan is
disapproved for purposes of part 150;
Consideration should be given to
incorporating hybrid 60 and 65 DNL
noise contours into the general plan in
lieu of the currently referenced noise
contours prepared in the Flagstaff Area
Regional Land Use and Transportation
Plan; The City of Flagstaff and Coconino
County maintain compatibility—zoned
areas within the 60 DNL noise contour;
That portion of the ‘‘hybrid’’ contour
that depicts noise from a 1991 airport
master plan is disapproved for purposes
of part 150; The City of Flagstaff and
Coconino County should rezone
undeveloped parcels within the hybrid
60 DNL noise contour to a compatible
zoning designation; That portion of the
‘‘hybrid’’ contour that depicts noise
from a 1991 airport master plan is
disapproved for purposes of part 150;
The FAA disapproved one (1) Noise
Abatement measure: Change Phoenix
Sectional Chart to depict the location of
Walnut Canyon National Monument.
These determinations are set forth in
detail in the Record of Approval signed
by the Manager of the Airports Division,
Western-Pacific Region, on June 25,
