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
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.
Piedmont Triad Airport Authority
submitted to the FAA on May 7, 2008
Noise Exposure Maps, descriptions and
other documentation that were
produced during the Piedmont Triad
International Airport FAR Part 150
Study conducted between March, 2003
and April 30, 2008. 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 Piedmont
Triad Airport Authority. The specific
documentation determined to constitute
the Noise Exposure Maps includes:

FAA has determined that these maps for
Piedmont Triad International Airport
are in compliance with applicable
requirements. This determination is
effective on June 10, 2008. FAA’s
determination on the 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 airport
operator’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 exposure 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
PO 00000
Frm 00064
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
34977
certification by the airport operator,
under Section 150.21 of Part 150, that
the statutorily required consultation has
been accomplished.
The FAA has formally received the
Noise Compatibility Program for
Piedmont Triad International Airport,
also effective on June 10, 2008.
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 December 7,
2008.
The FAA’s detailed evaluation will be
conducted under the provisions of Part
150, Section 150.33. The primary
considerations in the 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:
