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 FAR Part 150,
that the statutorily required consultation
has been accomplished. The FAA has
formally received the noise
compatibility program for Chicago
Executive Airport, also effective on
January 26, 2009. 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 October 1, 2010.
A public hearing was held on December
4, 2007 at the Chicago Executive
Airport.
The FAA’s detailed evaluation will be
conducted under the provisions of 14
CFR 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:

and that a public hearing to discuss the
issues presented by AAR’s petition had
