SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA
determined the noise exposure map
submitted by Dane County for Dane
County Regional Airport/Truax Field, is
in compliance with applicable statutory
and regulatory requirements, effective
December 21, 2023. Under title 49,
United States Code (U.S.C.) section
47503, an airport operator may submit
to the FAA, noise exposure maps
depicting non-compatible uses as of the
date such map is submitted, a
description of estimated aircraft
operations during a forecast period that
is at least five years in the future and
how those operations will affect the
map. A noise exposure map must be
prepared in accordance with title 14,
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part
150, the regulations promulgated
pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 47502 and
developed in consultation with public
agencies and planning authorities in the
area surrounding the airport, State and
Federal agencies, interested and affected
parties in the local community, and
aeronautical users of the airport. In
addition, an airport operator that
submitted a noise exposure map, which
the FAA determined is compliant with
statutory and regulatory requirements,
may submit a noise compatibility
program for FAA approval that sets
forth measures the operator has taken or
proposes to take to reduce existing noncompatible uses and prevent the
introduction of additional noncompatible uses.
The FAA completed its review of the
noise exposure map and supporting
documentation submitted by Dane
County and determined the noise
exposure map and accompanying
documentation are in compliance with
applicable requirements. The
documentation that constitutes the
Noise Exposure Map includes: Table

determination is effective on December

to a finding that the noise exposure map
was developed in accordance with the
49 U.S.C 47503 and 47506 and
procedures contained in 14 CFR part
150, appendix A. FAA’s acceptance of
an NEM does not constitute approval of
the applicant’s data, information or
plans, or a commitment to approve a
noise compatibility program or to fund
the implementation of that program. If
