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 103 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 107 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 the 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 which submitted those

maps, or with those public agencies and

planning agencies with which

consultation is required under Section

103 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

are available for examination at the

following locations:
