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, PO 00000 Frm 00077 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 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 reduce existing noncompatible uses and prevent the introduction of additional noncompatible uses. The City of Fresno initially submitted its noise compatibility program for the subject airport to the FAA on May 26, 2006 (71 FR 33032–33033). In a letter received by FAA on September 15, 2006, the City of Fresno requested that FAA suspend its review and processing of the noise compatibility program in order to modify the document. FAA terminated its formal review of the City of Fresno’s noise compatibility program effective September 15, 2006 (71 FR 56582). The City of Fresno has submitted their revised noise compatibility program to FAA. Therefore, the FAA has formally received the noise compatibility program for FAT, effective on April 18, 2008. The airport operator has requested that the FAA review this material 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.

Interested persons are invited to comment on the proposed program with specific reference to these factors. All comments relating to these factors, other than those properly addressed to local land use authorities, will be considered by the FAA to the extent practicable.

MITC states that the line connects with a rail line owned by Canadian Pacific Railway Company, which is operated by Wisconsin & Southern Railroad Co. MITC further states that the rail line to be acquired and operated by MITC constitutes a line of railroad for which an exemption from the Board is required because it is MITC’s initial rail pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES 1 The notice of exemption in this proceeding originally was filed on April 14, 2008, but was amended on April 16, 2008.

The filing of a petition to revoke will not automatically stay the effectiveness of the transaction. Petitions for stay must be filed no later than May 9, 2008 (at least 7 days before the exemption becomes effective).

U.S.C. 47504 et seq. (the Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act,

DATES: Effective Date: The effective date of the start of FM's review 
of the noise compatibility program is April 18, 2008. The public

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David B. Kessler, AICP, Regional 
Environmental Protection Specialist, Federal Aviation Administration, 
Western Pacific Region, P.O. Box 92007, Los Angeles, CA 90009-2007, 
Telephone 310/725-3615. Comments on the proposed noise compatibility 
program should also be submitted to the above office.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA is 
reviewing a proposed noise compatibility program for FAT, which will be 
approved or disapproved on or before October 15, 2008. This notice also 
announces the availability of this program for public review and 
comment.
    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 reduce 
existing non-compatible uses and prevent the introduction of additional 
non-compatible uses.
    The City of Fresno initially submitted its noise compatibility 
program for the subject airport to the FAA on May 26, 2006 (71 FR 
33032-33033). In a letter received by FAA on September 15, 2006, the 
City of Fresno requested that FAA suspend its review and processing of 
the noise compatibility program in order to modify the document. FAA 
terminated its formal review of the City of Fresno's noise 
compatibility program effective September 15, 2006 (71 FR 56582). The 
City of Fresno has submitted their revised noise compatibility program 
to FAA. Therefore, the FAA has formally received the noise 
compatibility program for FAT, effective on April 18, 2008. The airport 
operator has requested that the FAA review this material 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. Preliminary review of the submitted 
material indicates that it conforms to FAR Part 150 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 October 15, 2008.
    The FAA's detailed evaluation will be conducted under the 
provisions of 14 CFR part 150, Sec.  150.33. The primary considerations 
in the evaluation process are whether the proposed measures may reduce 
the level of aviation safety or create an undue burden on interstate or 
foreign commerce, and whether they are reasonably consistent with 
obtaining the goal of reducing existing non-compatible land uses and 
preventing the introduction of additional noncompatible land uses.
    Interested persons are invited to comment on the proposed program 
with specific reference to these factors. All comments relating to 
these factors, 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 and the proposed noise compatibility 
program are available for examination at the following locations:
