Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 168 / Thursday, August 30, 2007 / Notices 50157 

Outright approval was granted for all 

eight of the specific program elements, 

which are summarized as follows: 

Program Recommendation (1), whereby 

military aircraft departing from Runway 

14 would voluntarily use departure 

track RAD14X, instead of RAD14; 

Program Recommendation (2), whereby 

military aircraft arriving to Runway 32 

would voluntarily use arrival track 

A32B, instead of VOR32; Program 

Recommendation (3), involving the 

opportunity within the Primary Area for 

fee simple acquisition and relocation 

assistance regarding eligible properties 

(eligible vacant residential properties 

are limited to those considered infill 

among established residential areas); 

Program Recommendation (4), involving 

the opportunity within the Primary Area 

for avigation easement acquisition 

regarding eligible properties whose 

owners decline to participate in the fee 

simple acquisition program; Program 

Recommendation (5), involving the 

opportunity within the Primary Area for 

acoustical treatment of eligible 

properties whose owners decline to 

participate in the fee simple acquisition 

and relocation program or the avigation 

easement acquisition program 

(acquisition of an avigation easement or 

similar interest is recommended by FAA 

as a condition of participation in this 

measure); Program Recommendation (6), 

involving the airport sponsor’s 

management of acquired property and 

preparation of a redevelopment plan; 

Program Recommendation (7), involving 

the opportunity within the Secondary 

Area for acquisition of avigation 

easements for all eligible residential, 

infill vacant residential properties, and 

one church; and Program 

Recommendation (8), involving the 

opportunity within the Secondary Area 

for acoustical treatment of all singlefamily residential properties and one 

church. 

These determinations are set forth in 

detail in a Record of Approval signed by 

the FAA Southwest Region, Airports 

Division Manager on August 14, 2007. 

The Record of Approval, as well as 

other evaluation materials and the 

documents comprising the submittal, 

are available for review at the FAA 

office listed above and at the 

administrative offices of the England 

Economic and Industrial Development 

District. The Record of Approval also 

will be available on-line at http:// 

www.faa.gov/arp/environmental/ 

14cfr150/index14.cfm. 

The FAA also has completed its 

review of the revised noise exposure 

maps and related descriptions 

submitted by England Economic and 

Industrial Development District. The 

specific map under consideration is 

Figure 7.9 in the submission. The FAA 

has determined that this map for 

Alexandria International Airport is in 

compliance with applicable 

requirements. This determination is 

effective on August 22, 2007. 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. 

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 FAR 

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 noise exposure maps 

and of the FAA’s evaluation of the 

maps, and copies of the record of 

approval and other evaluation materials 

and documents which comprised the 

submittal to the FAA are available for 

examination at the following locations: 

Federal Aviation Administration, 

2601 Meacham Boulevard, Fort Worth, 

Texas; England Economic and Industrial 

Development District, 1611 Arnold 

Drive, Alexandria, Louisiana. Questions 

on either of these FAA determinations 

may be directed to the individual 

named above under the heading FOR

FURTHER INFORAMTION CONTACT.
