Approval of Noise Compatibility
Program for Willow Run Airport,
Ypsilanti, Michigan
Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The FAA announces its
findings on the noise compatibility
program submitted by the City of
Ypsilanti, Michigan under the
provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47501 et seq.
(formerly the Aviation Safety and Noise
Abatement Act, hereinafter referred to
as ‘‘the Act’’) and 14 CFR Part 150
(hereinafter referred to as ‘‘Part 150’’).
On January 15, 2014, the FAA
determined that the noise exposure
maps submitted by the City of Ypsilanti,
Michigan under Part 150 were in
compliance with applicable
requirements. On May 20, 2014 the FAA
approved the Willow Run Airport noise
compatibility program. This is the first
Record of Approval (ROA) for the YIP
NCP, which included nine measures
recommended for approval. No program
elements relating to new or revised
flight procedures for noise abatement
were proposed by the airport operator.
DATES: This notice is effective June 9,
2014, and is applicable beginning May
20, 2014.

Ernest P. Gubry, 11677 S. Wayne Road,

action may be reviewed, upon

hours, at this location.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice announces that the FAA has
made a determination on each measure
in the Noise Compatibility Program for
Willow Run Airport, effective May 20,
2014.
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
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 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 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
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
action. A request for Federal action or
approval to implement specific noise
compatibility measures may be
required. Prior to an FAA decision on a
request to implement the action, an
environmental review of the proposed
action may be required. Approval does
not constitute a commitment by the
FAA to financially assist in the
implementation of the program nor a
determination that all measures covered
by the program are eligible for grant-inaid funding from the FAA under
applicable law contained in Title 49

U.S.C. Where federal funding is sought,
requests for project grants must be
submitted to the FAA Airports District
Office in Romulus, Michigan.
The Willow Run Airport study
contains a proposed noise compatibility
program comprised of actions designed
for phased implementation by airport
management and adjacent jurisdictions
from 2012 to the year 2018. It was
requested that the FAA evaluate and
approve this material as a Noise
Compatibility Program as described in
section 47504 of the Act. The FAA
began its review of the program on
January 15, 2014 and was required by a
provision of the Act to approve or
disapprove the program within 180 days
(other than the use of new or modified
flight procedures for noise control).
Failure to approve or disapprove such
program within the 180-day period shall
be deemed to be an approval of such
program.
The submitted program contained
nine (9) proposed actions for noise
abatement, noise mitigation, land use
planning and program management on
and off the airport. The FAA completed
its review and determined that the
procedural and substantive
requirements of the Act and Part 150
have been satisfied. The overall program
was approved by the FAA, effective May
20, 2014.
These determinations are set forth in
detail in a Record of Approval signed by
the Great Lakes Airports Division
Manager on May 20, 2014. The Record
of Approval, as well as other evaluation
materials and the documents
comprising the submittal, are available
for review, upon appointment during
normal business hours, at the FAA
office listed above and at the
administrative offices of the Willow Run
Airport, 801 Willow Run Airport,
Ypsilanti, MI 48198.
The Record of Approval will also be
