Download as PDF 66400 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 239 / Tuesday, December 15, 2009 / Notices 11 While this device passed all of the requirements of the Model Specifications, readings should be taken only after the time specified by the manufacturer. For valid readings, the user should follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Readings should be taken one (1) minute after a sample is introduced at or above 30 °C (86 °F); readings should be taken after two (2) minutes at 18 °C–29 °C (64.4 °¥84.2 °F); and readings should be taken after five (5) minutes when testing at temperatures at or below 17 °C (62.6 °F). If the reading is taken before five (5) minutes has elapsed under the cold conditions, the user is likely to obtain a reading that underestimates the actual saliva-alcohol level.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA finds that the noise exposure maps submitted for San Diego International Airport are in compliance with applicable requirements of 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 150 (hereinafter referred to as ‘‘Part 150’’), effective November 10, 2009. Under 49 U.S.C. section 47503 of the Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act (hereinafter referred to as ‘‘the Act’’), an airport operator may submit to the FAA noise exposure maps which meet applicable regulations and which depict noncompatible land uses as of the date of submission of such maps, a description VerDate Nov<24>2008 17:23 Dec 14, 2009 Jkt 220001 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 for FAA approval which sets forth the measures the operator has taken or proposes to take to reduce existing non-compatible uses and prevent the introduction of additional non-compatible uses. The FAA has completed its review of the noise exposure maps and accompanying documentation submitted by San Diego County Regional Airport Authority. The documentation that constitutes the ‘‘Noise Exposure Maps’’ as defined in section 150.7 of Part 150 includes: Figure 2, Existing Condition (2009) Noise Exposure Map; Figure 3, Forecast Condition (2014) Noise Exposure Map; Figure 4, Comparison of Existing (2009) and Forecast (2014) Noise Exposure Maps; Figure 5, Existing SAN Airport Layout; Figure 6, Runway 9 Departure Arrival Tracks, Figure 7, Runway 27 Departure and Arrival Tracks; Figure 8, Helicopter Departure and Arrival Tracks; Table 3, Annual CNEL Measured at the RMT’s; Table 4, Comparison of Annual CNEL-Measured and Modeled; Table 5, 2007 Aircraft Operations; Table 6, Existing (2009) Modeled Average Daily Aircraft Operations; Table 7, Forecast (2014) Modeled Average Daily Aircraft Operations; Table 8, Runway Utilization; Table 9, Number of NonResidential Sensitive Receptors within 2009 and 2014 CNEL Contours; Table 10, Listing of Non-Residential Sensitive Receptors within 2009 and 2014 CNEL Contours; Table 11, Estimated Residential Population within 2009 and 2014 CNEL Contours; Table 12, Number of Single Family Homes Eligible for Sound Mitigation; Table 13, Number of Multi-Family Residential Units Eligible for Mitigation; Table 14, Noise Technical Advisory Group Members; Table 15, Noise Technical Advisory Group Meetings; Table 16, Community Information Workshops Content. The FAA has determined that these Noise Exposure Maps and accompanying PO 00000 Frm 00129 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 documentation are in compliance with applicable requirements. This determination is effective on November 10, 2009. 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 Part 150, that the statutorily required consultation has been accomplished. Copies of the full noise exposure map documentation and of the FAA’s evaluation of the maps are available for examination at the following locations: Federal Aviation Administration, Western-Pacific Region Office, Airports Division, Room 3012, 15000 Aviation Boulevard, Hawthorne, California 90261.
