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

proposes to take to reduce existing noncompatible uses and prevent theintroduction 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; and Exhibit 5.4, 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: Louisiana/New Mexico Airports Development Office, Federal Aviation Administration, 2601 Meacham Boulevard, Fort Worth, Texas; Gregory M. Roberts, Director of Aviation, Lafayette Regional Airport, 222 Tower Drive, Lafayette, LA 70508. Questions may be directed to the individual named above under the heading **FOR**
