(1,117,195 MTRV) to the following 

countries in the amounts specified

These allocations are based on the 

countries’ historical shipments to the 

United States. The allocations of the inquota quantities of the raw cane sugar 

TRQ to countries that are net importers 

of sugar are conditioned on receipt of 

the appropriate verifications of origin, 

and certificates for quota eligibility must 

accompany imports from any country 

for which an allocation has been 

provided. 

On September 25, 2009, the Secretary 

announced the establishment of the inquota quantity of the FY 2010 refined 

sugar TRQ at 90,039 MTRV for which 

the sucrose content, by weight in the 

dry state, must have a polarimeter 

reading of 99.5 degrees or more. This 

amount includes the minimum level to 

which the United States is committed 

under the WTO Uruguay Round 

Agreements (22,000 MTRV of which 

1,656 MTRV is reserved for specialty 

sugar) and an additional 68,039 MTRV 

for specialty sugars. USTR is allocating 

a total of 10,300 MTRV of refined sugar 

to Canada, 2,954 MTRV of refined sugar 

to Mexico, and 7,090 MTRV of refined 

sugar to be administered on a first-come, 

first-served basis. 

Imports of all specialty sugar will be 

administered on a first-come, firstserved basis in five tranches. The 

Secretary has announced that the total 

in-quota quantity of specialty sugar will 

be the 1,656 MTRV included in the 

WTO minimum plus an additional 

68,039 MTRV. The first tranche of 1,656 

MTRV will open October 20, 2009. All 

types of specialty sugars are eligible for 

entry under this tranche. The second 

tranche of 25,000 MTRV will open on 

November 10, 2009. The third, fourth, 

and fifth tranches of 14,346 MTRV each 

will open on January 12, 2010, May 17, 

2010 and August 24, 2010, respectively. 

The second, third, fourth and fifth 

tranches will be reserved for organic 

sugar and other specialty sugars not 

currently produced commercially in the 

United States or reasonably available 

from domestic sources. 

With respect to the in-quota quantity 

of 64,709 metric tons (MT) of the TRQ 

for imports of certain sugar-containing 

products maintained under Additional 

U.S. Note 8 to Chapter 17 of the HTS, 

USTR is allocating 59,250 MT to 

Canada. The remainder, 5,459 MT, of 

the in-quota quantity is available for 

other countries on a first-come, firstserved basis.

Federal Aviation Administration 

Notice of Approval of Noise 

Compatibility Program 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration, DOT. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) announces its 

findings on the noise compatibility 

program (NCP) submitted by the 

Metropolitan Airport Authority of 

Peoria for General Wayne A. Downing 

Peoria International Airport under the 

provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47501 et seq. 

(the Aviation Safety and Noise 

Abatement Act, herein 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). The General Wayne A. 

Downing Peoria International Airport 

noise exposure maps were determined 

by FAA to be in compliance with 

applicable requirements on June 26, 

2009. Notice of this determination was 

published in the Federal Register on 

July 2, 2009, 74 FR 31791. 

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 

effected 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. 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
