**Notice of Noise Exposure Map; Bradley International Airport, Windsor Locks,**  **Connecticut**

**AGENCY :**  Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

**ACTION :**  Notice.

**SUMMARY :**  The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces its determination that the noise exposure maps for Bradley International Airport, Windsor Locks, Connecticut, as submitted by the Connecticut Airport Authority under the provisions of Title I of the Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act of 1979 (Pub. L. 96–193) and 14 CFR Part 150, are in compliance with applicable requirements.

**DATES :**  Effective Date: The effective date of the FAA’s determination on the noise exposure maps is December 31, 2013.

**ADDRESSES :**  Copies of the noise exposure maps and of the FAA’s evaluation of the maps are available for examination at the following locations: Connecticut Airport Authority, Bradley

International Airport, Windsor Locks, Connecticut 06096. Federal Aviation Administration, New

England Region, Airports Division, 12 New England Executive Park, Burlington, Massachusetts 01803.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  Richard Doucette, Federal Aviation Administration, New England Region, Airports Division, 12 New England Executive Park, Burlington, Massachusetts 01803.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  This notice announces that the FAA finds that the noise exposure maps submitted for Bradley International Airport are in compliance with applicable requirements of Part 150, effective December 31, 2013.

Under Section 103 of Title I of the Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act of 1979 (hereinafter referred to as ‘‘the Act’’) (49 U.S.C. 47503), an airport operator may submit to the FAA noise exposure maps that meet applicableregulations and that depict noncompatible land uses as of the date of submission of such maps, a description of projected aircraft operations, and the ways in which such operations will affect such maps. The Act requires such maps to be developed in consultation with interested and affected parties in the local community, government agencies, and persons using the airport.

An airport operator who has submitted such noise exposure maps that are found by FAA to be in compliance with the requirements of Part 150 of FAA’s regulations (14 CFR Part 150), promulgated pursuant to Title I of the Act, may submit a noise compatibility program for FAA approval that sets forth the measures the operator has taken, or proposes, for theintroduction of additional noncompatible uses.

The FAA has completed its review of the noise exposure map and related descriptions submitted by the Connecticut Airport Authority. The specific maps under consideration were Exhibit NEM–1, Existing (2013) Noise Exposure Map and Exhibit NEM–2, Future (2018) Noise Exposure Map in the submission. The FAA has determined that these maps for Bradley International Airport are in compliance with applicable requirements. This determination is effective on December 31, 2013.

FAA’s determination on an airport operator’s noise exposure maps is limited to a finding that the maps were developed in accordance with the procedures contained in Appendix A of Part 150. Such determination 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 questions arise concerning the precise relationship of specific properties to noise exposure contours depicted on a noise exposure map submitted under Section 103 of the Act, it should be noted that the FAA is not involved in any way in determining the relative locations of specific properties with regard to the depicted noise contours, or in interpreting the noise exposure maps to resolve questions concerning, for example, which properties should be covered by the provisions of Section 107 of the Act (49 U.S.C. 47506). These functions are inseparable from the ultimate land use control and planning responsibilities of local government. These local responsibilities are not changed in any way under Part 150 or through FAA’s review of a noise exposure map. Therefore, the responsibility for the detailed overlaying of noise exposure contours onto the map depicting properties on the surface rests exclusively with the airport operator that submitted the map or with those public agencies and planning agencies with which consultation is required under Section 103 of the Act. The FAA has relied on the certification by the airport operator, under Section 150.21 of Part 150, that the statutorily required consultation has been accomplished. Authority: 49 U.S.C. 47501–47510; 14 CFR Part 150.

Issued in Burlington, Massachusetts, January 9, 2014. Bryon H. Rakoff, Acting Manager, New England Region Airports Division.
