Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 72 / Friday, April 13, 2012 / Notices 22379 

proposes to take to reduce existing noncompatible uses and prevent the 

introduction of additional noncompatible uses. 

The FAA has completed its review of 

the noise exposure maps and 

accompanying documentation 

submitted by Lafayette Airport 

Commission. The documentation that 

constitutes the ‘‘noise exposure maps’’ 

as defined in section 150.7 of Part 150 

includes: Exhibit 2.1, Existing Land Use 

and Jurisdictional Boundaries; Table 

2.4, Noise-Sensitive Sites and Historic 

Properties; Exhibit 2.2, Noise-Sensitive 

Sites and Historic Properties; Table 3.3, 

Historical Annual Aircraft Operations; 

Table 3.4, Historical Annual Operations 

by Aircraft Category; Table 3.5, Forecast 

of Commercial Operations; Table 3.6, 

Forecast of General Aviation 

Operations; Table 3.7, Forecast of 

Military Operations; Table 3.8, Forecast 

of Aviation Operations; Table 3.9, 

Existing and Forecast Average Daily 

Operations; Table 4.1, INM Aircraft 

Substitutions; Exhibit 4.1, Year 2010— 

Annual and Average Daily Operations; 

Table 4.2, 2010 Fleet Mix at LFT; Table 

4.4, 2010 Day-Night Split by Aircraft 

Category; Table 4.5, 2010 Runway 

Utilization; Exhibit 4.2, Existing and 

Future Condition Flight Tracks, Arrival 

and Departure—Runway 04L/R; Exhibit 

4.3, Existing and Future Condition 

Flight Tracks, Arrival and Departure— 

Runway 11; Exhibit 4.4, Existing and 

Future Condition Flight Tracks, Arrival 

and Departure—Runway 22L/R; Exhibit 

4.5, Existing and Future Condition 

Flight Tracks, Arrival and Departure— 

Runway 29; Exhibit 4.6, Existing and 

Future Condition Touch-and-Go Flight 

Tracks; Exhibit 4.7, Existing (2010) 

Condition Noise Contour Map; Table 

4.6, 2010 Noise Exposure Estimates; 

Table 5.1, 2016 Aircraft Fleet Mix; Table 

5.2, 2016 Day-Night Split by Aircraft 

Category; Exhibit 5.1, Year 2016— 

Annual and Average Daily Operations; 

Table 5.3, 2016 Runway Utilization; 

Exhibit 5.2, Future (2016) Noise Contour 

Map; Table 5.4, 2016 Noise Exposure 

Estimates; Exhibit 5.3, Incompatible

Land Use. 

The FAA has determined that these 

noise exposure maps and accompanying 

documentation are in compliance with 

applicable requirements. This 

determination is effective on April 3, 

2012. 

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 

FAR 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 47503 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 

47506 of the Act. 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 noise exposure maps. 

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 those maps, or with 

those public agencies and planning 

agencies with which consultation is 

required under section 47503 of the Act. 

The FAA has relied on the certification 

by the airport operator, under section 

150.21 of FAR Part 150, that the 

statutorily required consultation has 

been accomplished. 

Copies of the full noise exposure map 

documentation and of the FAA’s 

evaluation of the maps are available for 

examination at the following locations:
