<![CDATA[
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 229 / Thursday, November 29, 2007 / Notices
of the Act 9 in general, and furthers the
objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act 10
in particular, in that it is designed to
promote just and equitable principles of
trade, to remove impediments to and
perfect the mechanism of a free and
open market and a national market
system, and, in general to protect
investors and the public interest.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange does not believe that
the proposed rule change will impose
any burden on competition not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
Written comments were neither
solicited nor received.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
Because the foregoing proposed rule
change does not:
(i) Significantly affect the protection
of investors or the public interest;
(ii) Impose any significant burden on
competition; and
(iii) Become operative within 30 days
from the date on which it was filed, or
such shorter time as the Commission
may designate, it has become effective
upon filing pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) of the Act 11 and Rule 19b–
4(f)(6) thereunder.12 Phlx has requested
that the Commission waive the 5-day
pre-filing notice requirement and the
30-day operative delay of the proposal.
The Commission believes that such
waivers are consistent with the
protection of investors and the public
interest because the proposed rule
change conforms Phlx’s rules to
currently effective Commission Rules
and should eliminate potential
confusion relating to orders on XLE.13
For this reason, the Commission
designates the proposal to be operative
upon filing with the Commission.
At any time within 60 days of the
filing of the proposed rule change, the
Commission may summarily abrogate
such rule change if it appears to the
Commission that such action is

efficiency, competition and capital formation. 15

Federal Aviation
Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) announces its
findings on the noise compatibility
program submitted by the Greater Baton
Rouge Airport District under the
provisions of 49 U.S.C. (the Aviation
Safety and Noise Abatement Act,
hereinafter referred to as ‘‘the Act’’) and
14 CFR part 150. These findings are
made in recognition of the description
of Federal and nonfederal
responsibilities in Senate Report No.
96–52 (1980). On July 30, 2007, the FAA
determined that the noise exposure
maps submitted by the Greater Baton
Rouge Airport District under part 150
were in compliance with applicable
requirements. On November 13, 2007,
the FAA approved the Baton Rouge
Metropolitan Airport, Ryan Field noise
compatibility program. Most of the
recommendations of the program were
approved. No program elements relating
to new or revised flight procedures for
noise abatement were proposed by the
airport operator.
DATES: Effective Date: The effective date
of the FAA’s approval of the Baton
Rouge Metropolitan Airport, Ryan Field
noise compatibility program is
November 13, 2007.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Lance E. Key (ASW 615), 2601
Meacham Boulevard, Fort Worth, Texas
76137–4298. Documents reflecting this
FAA action may be reviewed at this
same location.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice announces that the FAA has
given its overall approval to the noise
PO 00000
Frm 00028
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
compatibility program for Baton Rouge
Metropolitan Airport, Ryan Field,
effective November 13, 2007.
Under section 47504 of the Act, an
airport operator who has previously
submitted a noise exposure map may
submit to the FAA a noise compatibility
program which sets forth the measures
taken or proposed by the airport
operator for the reduction of existing
non-compatible land uses and
prevention of additional non-compatible
land uses within the area covered by the
noise exposure maps. The Act requires
such programs to be developed in
consultation with interested and
affected parties including local
communities, government agencies,
airport users, and FAA personnel.
Each airport noise compatibility
program developed in accordance with
Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) part
150 is a local program, not a Federal
program. The FAA does not substitute
its judgment for that of the airport
proprietor with respect to which
measures should be recommended for
action. The FAA’s approval or
disapproval of FAR part 150 program
recommendations is measured
according to the standards expressed in
part 150 and the Act and is limited to
the following determinations:
a. The noise compatibility program
was developed in accordance with the
provisions and procedures of FAR part
150;
b. Program measures are reasonably
consistent with achieving the goals of
reducing existing non-compatible land
uses around the airport and preventing
the introduction of additional noncompatible land uses;
c. Program measures would not create
an undue burden on interstate or foreign
commerce, unjustly discriminate against
types or classes of aeronautical uses,
violate the terms of airport grant
agreements, or intrude into areas
preempted by the Federal Government;
and
d. Program measures relating to the
use of flight procedures can be
implemented within the period covered
by the program without derogating
safety, adversely affecting the efficient
use and management of the navigable
airspace and air traffic control systems,
or adversely affecting other powers and
responsibilities of the Administrator
prescribed by law.
Specific limitations with respect to
FAA’s approval of an airport noise
compatibility program are delineated in
FAR part 150, section 150.5. Approval
is not a determination concerning the
acceptability of land uses under Federal,
state, or local law. Approval does not by
itself constitute an FAA implementing
