[FR Doc. 2016–04737 Filed 3–2–16; 8:45 am]
The Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) is considering a
proposal to change a portion of the
airport from aeronautical use to
nonaeronautical use and to authorize
the conversion of the airport property.
The proposal consists of one parcel of
land containing a total of approximately
2.583.
The property was acquired using City
and FAA funds through the AIP
Program from 1983–1987. The land
comprising this parcel is outside the
forecasted need for aviation
development and, thus, is no longer
needed for indirect or direct
aeronautical use. The airport wishes to
develop this land for compatible
commercial, nonaeronautical use. The
income from the conversion of this
parcel will benefit the aviation
community by reinvestment in the
airport.
Approval does not constitute a
commitment by the FAA to financially
assist in the conversion of the subject
airport property nor a determination of
eligibility for grant-in-aid funding from
the FAA. The disposition of proceeds
from the conversion of the airport
property will be in accordance with
FAA’s Policy and Procedures
Concerning the Use of Airport Revenue,
published in the Federal Register on
February 16, 1999. In accordance with
Section 47107(h) of Title 49, United
States Code, this notice is required to be
published in the Federal Register 30
days before modifying the land-use
assurance that requires the property to
be used for an aeronautical purpose.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before April 4, 2016.

Noise Compatibility Program Notice,
Lafayette Regional Airport, Lafayette,

Federal Aviation
Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) announces its
findings on the noise compatibility
program submitted by Lafayette Airport
Commission under the provisions of 49
U.S.C. (the Aviation Safety and Noise
Abatement Act, hereinafter referred to
as ‘‘the Act’’) and 14 CFR part 150.
These findings are made in recognition
of the description of Federal and
nonfederal responsibilities in Senate
Report No. 96–52 (1980). On April 4,
2012, the FAA determined that the
noise exposure maps submitted by
Lafayette Airport Commission under
Part 150 were in compliance with
applicable requirements. On November
23, 2015, the FAA approved the
Lafayette Regional Airport noise
compatibility program. Both of the
recommendations of the program were
approved.
SUMMARY:
The effective date of the FAA’s
approval of the Lafayette Regional
Airport noise compatibility program is
November 23, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice announces that the FAA has
given its overall approval to the noise
compatibility program for Lafayette
Regional Airport, effective November
23, 2015.
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
Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) 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 FAR 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 FAR 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.
