The Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) announces its
findings (Record of Approval) on the
noise compatibility program submitted
by the City of Boise, Idaho for the Boise
Air Terminal (Gowen Field) under the
provisions of 49 U.S.C. (the Aviation
Safety and Noise Abatement Act,
hereinafter referred to as ‘‘the Act’’) and

SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 238001
City of Boise for the Boise Air Terminal
under Part 150 were in compliance with
applicable requirements. On August 24,
2016 the FAA approved the Boise
Airport Noise Compatibility Program.
Seven of the 13 measures recommended
in the noise compatibility plan were
approved and six measures were
disapproved for the purposes of Part
150. In addition, 22 measures were
included in the noise compatibility plan
that requested no FAA action as they
were approved in a previous record of
approval, were removed from
consideration, or disapproved in a
previous record of approval. These
measures and FAA’s associated
determinations are summarized in the
attachment to the Record of Approval.
DATES: Effective Date: The effective date
of the FAA’s approval of the Boise
Airport Noise Compatibility Program is
August 24, 2016.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Scott Eaton, Federal Aviation
Administration, Helena Airports District
Office, FAA Building, Suite 2, 2725
Skyway Drive, Helena, MT 59602–1213,
telephone 406–449–5291. Documents
reflecting this FAA action may be
reviewed at this same location.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice announces that the FAA has
given its overall approval to the noise
compatibility program for the Boise Air
Terminal, effective August 24, 2016.
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
the Part 150 regulations 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;
PO 00000
Frm 00064
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
60401
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, and an FAA decision on the
request may require an environmental
review of the proposed action. 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. Where
federal funding is sought, requests for
project grants must be submitted to the
FAA Helena Airports District Office in
Helena, Montana. The City of Boise
submitted to the FAA on December 21,
2015, the noise exposure maps,
descriptions, and other documentation
produced during the noise compatibility
planning study for the Boise Air
Terminal conducted in 2014 and 2015.
The Boise Air Terminal noise exposure
maps were determined by FAA to be in
compliance with applicable
requirements on May 2, 2016.
Notice of this determination was
published in the Federal Register on
May 10, 2016 (FR Volume 81, No. 90,
pages 28933–28934) and as corrected on
May 16, 2016 (FR Volume 81, No. 94,
pages 30414–30415).
Comments received during the noise
compatibility planning public process
were addressed in the final noise
compatibility program submitted to
FAA. In addition, seven sets of
