DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

Receipt of Noise Compatibility

Program and Request for Review for

Scottsdale Airport, Scottsdale, Arizona

AGENCY: Federal Aviation

Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA) announces that it

is reviewing a proposed noise

compatibility program that was

submitted for Scottsdale Airport under

the provisions of Title I of the Aviation

Safety and Noises Abatement Act of

1979 (Pub. L. 96–193) (hereinafter

referred to as ‘‘the Act’’) and 14 CFR

part 150 by the city of Scottsdale

Arizona. This program was submitted

subsequent to a determination by the

FAA that the associated noise exposure

maps submitted under 14 CFR part 150

for Scottsdale Airport were in

compliance with applicable

requirements effective June 5, 1996. The

proposed noise compatibility program

will be approved or disapproved on or

before February 16, 1998.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of the

start of FAA’s review of the noise

compatibility program is August 20,

1997. The public comment period ends

on October 20, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

David B. Kessler, AICP, Environmental

Protection Specialist, AWP–611.2,

Planning Section, Western-Pacific

Region, Federal Aviation

Administration, P.O. Box 92007,

Worldway Postal Center, Los Angeles,

California 90009–2007, Telephone 310/

725–3615 Street Address: 15000

Aviation Boulevard, Hawthorne,

California 90261. Comments on the

proposed noise compatibility program

should also be submitted to the above

office.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

notice announces that the FAA is

reviewing a proposed rule compatibility

program for Scottsdale Airport which

will be approved or disapproved on or

before February 16, 1998. This notice

also announces the availability of this

program for public review and

comment.

An airport operator who has

submitted noise exposure maps that are

found by FAA to be in compliance with

the requirements of Federal Aviation

Regulations (FAR) part 150,

promulgated pursuant to Title I of the

Act, may submit a noise compatibility

program for FAA approval which sets

forth the measures the operator has

taken or proposes for the reduction of

existing noncompatible uses and for the

prevention of the introduction of

additional noncompatible uses.

The FAA has formally received the

noise compatibility program for

Scottsdale Airport, effective on August

20, 1997. It was requested that the FAA

review this material and that the noise

mitigation measures, to be implemented

jointly by the airport and surrounding

communities, be approved as a noise

compatibility program under section

104(b) of the Act. Preliminary review of

the submitted material indicates that it

conforms to the requirements for the

submittal of noise compatibility

programs, but that further review will be

necessary prior to approval or

disapproval of the program. The formal

review period, limited by law to a

maximum of 180 days, will be

completed on or before February 16,

1998.

The FAA’s detailed evaluation will be

conducted under the provisions of 14

CFR part 150, section 150.33. The

primary considerations in the

evaluation process are whether the

proposed measures may reduce the level

of aviation safety, create an undue

burden on interstate or foreign

commerce, or be reasonably consistent

with obtaining the goal of reducing

existing noncompatible land uses and

preventing the introduction of

additional noncompatible land uses.

Interested persons are invited to

comment on the proposed program with

specific reference to these factors. All

comments, other than those properly

addressed to local land use authorities,

will be considered by the FAA to the

extent practicable. Copies of the noise

exposure maps, the FAA’s evaluation of

the maps, and the proposed noise

compatibility program are available for

examination at the following locations:
