ACTION:
This action would establish a
new noise standard for certain subsonic
jet airplanes and subsonic transport
category large airplanes. This noise
standard, known as Stage 5, would
apply to any person submitting an
application for a new airplane type
design with a maximum certificated
takeoff weight of 121,254 pounds
(55,000 kg) or more on or after
December 31, 2017; or with maximum
certificated takeoff weight of less than
121,254 pounds (55,000 kg) on or after
December 31, 2020. This change would
reduce the noise produced by new
airplanes and harmonize the noise
certification standards for those
airplanes certificated in the United
States with the new International Civil
Aviation Organization noise standard in
Annex 16, Chapter 14, effective July 14,
2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Authority for This Rulemaking
The FAA’s authority to issue rules on
aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the
United States Code. Subtitle I, Section
106 describes the authority of the FAA
Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation
Programs, describes in more detail the
scope of the agency’s authority.
This rulemaking is promulgated
under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section
44715, Controlling aircraft noise and
sonic boom. Under that section, the
FAA is charged with prescribing
regulations to measure and abate aircraft
noise. This regulation is within the
scope of that authority since it would
establish stricter noise limits for certain
newly certificated airplanes. Applicants
for type certificates and changes in type
design made after the dates proposed in
this rulemaking would be required to
comply with the new regulation when
adopted.
I. Executive Summary
A. Summary of the Proposed Rule
The FAA is proposing to amend Title
14, Code of Federal Regulations (14
CFR) parts 36 and 91 to add a new noise
standard to be known as Stage 5. This
noise standard would apply to any
person submitting an application for a
new airplane that has a maximum
certificated takeoff weight of 121,254
pounds (55,000 kg) or more on or after
December 31, 2017; or that has a
maximum certificated takeoff weight of
less than 121,254 pounds (55,000 kg) on
or after December 31, 2020. A
certification applicant could choose to
use this standard on a voluntary basis
after the rule is effective but before the
new limits are required.
