DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

[Public Notice 7065] 

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate 

Change Special Report Review 

ACTION: The United States Global 

Change Research and Climate Change 

Technology Programs request expert 

review of the Special Report on 

Renewable Energy Sources and Climate 

Change Mitigation (SRREN) of the 

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate 

Change (IPCC). 

SUMMARY: The IPCC was established as 

an intergovernmental body under the 

auspices of the United Nations 

Environment Programme (UNEP) and 

the World Meteorological Organization 

(WMO) in 1988. In accordance with its 

mandate and as reaffirmed in various 

decisions by the Panel, the major 

activity of the IPCC is to prepare 

comprehensive and up-to-date 

assessments of policy-relevant 

scientific, technical, and socioeconomic information for understanding 

the scientific basis of climate change, 

potential impacts, and options for 

mitigation and adaptation. More 

information about the IPCC can be 

found at http://www.ipcc.ch. 

The IPCC develops a comprehensive 

assessment spanning all the above 

topics approximately every six years. In 

addition to these comprehensive 

assessments, the IPCC periodically 

develops Special Reports on specific 

topics. Preparation of Special Reports 

follows the same procedures as for the 

Assessment Reports. Governments 

develop and approve plans for reports, 

and nominate scientists and experts as 

lead authors and reviewers. Authors 

prepare the reports, which go through 

several stages of review, following 

which they are accepted by member 

governments at a session of the IPCC. 

Member governments also approve the 

executive summaries of the reports 

(known as a ‘‘summary for policy 

makers’’) in detail at the time that they 

accept the overall report. Principles and 

procedures for the IPCC and its 

preparation of reports can be found at 

the following Web sites (http:// 

www.ipcc.ch/pdf/ipcc-principles/ipccprinciples.pdf; http://www.ipcc.ch/ 

organization/ 

organization_procedures.htm). 

In April 2008, the IPCC approved the 

development of a Special Report on 

Renewable Energy Sources and Climate 

Change Mitigation (SRREN). The SRREN 

is being developed under the leadership 

of the IPCC Working Group III. This 

Special Report aims to provide a better 

understanding and broader information 

on the mitigation potential of renewable 

energy sources. More information on the 

report can be found at: http://www.ipccwg3.de/publications/special-reports. 

All IPCC reports go through two broad 

reviews: A ‘‘first-order draft’’ for experts, 

and a ‘‘second-order draft’’ for experts 

and governments. The IPCC Secretariat 

has informed the U.S. Department of 

State that the second-order draft of the 

SRREN is available for expert and 

government review. The report is 

structured with technology chapters— 

bio-energy, direct solar energy, 

geothermal energy, hydropower, ocean 

energy and wind energy—which feed 

into overarching chapters. A system 

integration chapter brings different 

aspects of energy demand and supply 

together. The report also considers the 

policy options, outcomes and 

conditions for effectiveness, and how 

accelerated deployment could be 

achieved in a sustainable manner. 

Capacity building, technology transfer 

and financing in different regions are 

also assessed. 

As part of the U.S. Government 

Review of the SRREN, the U.S. 

Government is soliciting comments 

from experts in relevant fields of 

expertise. The Global Change Research 

Program and Climate Change 

Technology Program Offices will 

coordinate collection of U.S. expert 

comments and the review of the report 

by panels of Federal scientists and 

program managers in order to develop a 

consolidated U.S. Government 

submission. Expert comments received 

within the comment period will be 

considered for inclusion in the U.S. 

Government submission. Instructions 

for review and submission of comments 

are available at http:// 

www.globalchange.gov/srrenreview. 

To be considered for inclusion in the 

U.S. Government collation, comments 

must be received by midnight July 18th, 

2010. Comments submitted for 

consideration as part of the U.S. 

Government Review should be reserved 

for that purpose, and not also sent to the 

IPCC Secretariat as a discrete set of 

expert comments. Comments should be 

submitted using the Web-based system 

at: http://www.globalchange.gov/ 

srrenreview.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Aviation Administration 

Approval of Noise Compatibility 

Program for Buckeye Municipal 

Airport, Town of Buckeye, AZ 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration, DOT. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) announces its 

findings on the noise compatibility 

program submitted by the Town of 

Buckeye under the provisions of 49 

U.S.C. 47501 et seq. (formerly the 

Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement 

Act, hereinafter referred to as ‘‘the Act’’) 

and 14 Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR) Part 150 (hereinafter referred to as 

‘‘Part 150’’). On September 22, 2008, the 

FAA determined that the noise exposure 

maps submitted by the Town of 

Buckeye under Part 150 were in 

compliance with applicable 

requirements. On May 13, 2010, the 

FAA approved the Buckeye Municipal 

Airport noise compatibility program. All 

of the recommendations of the program 

were approved. 

DATES: Effective Date: The effective date 

of the FAA’s approval of the Noise 

Compatibility Program for Buckeye 

Municipal Airport is May 13, 2010. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Ruben Cabalbag, Acting Manager, Los 

Angeles Airports District Office, Room 

3000, 15000 Aviation Boulevard, 

Lawndale, CA 90261, (310) 725–3621. 

Documents reflecting this FAA action 

may be reviewed at this same location. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice announces that the FAA has 

given its overall approval to the Noise 

Compatibility Program for Buckeye 

Municipal Airport, effective May 13, 

2010. 

Under section 47504 of the Act, an 

airport operator who has previously 

submitted a Noise Exposure Map may 

submit to the FAA a Noise 

Compatibility Program which sets forth 

the measures taken or proposed by the 

airport operator for the reduction of 

existing non-compatible land uses and 

prevention of additional non-compatible 

land uses within the area covered by the 

Noise Exposure Maps. The Act requires 

such programs to be developed in 

consultation with interested and 

affected parties including local 

communities, government agencies, 

airport users, and FAA personnel. 

Each airport noise compatibility 

program developed in accordance with 

Part 150 is a local program, not a 

Federal program. The FAA does not 

substitute its judgment for that of the 

airport proprietor with respect to which 

measures should be recommended for 

action. The FAA’s approval or 

disapproval of Part 150 program 

recommendations is measured 

according to the standards expressed in 

Part 150 and the Act and is limited to 

the following determinations: 

a. The Noise Compatibility Program 

was developed in accordance with the 

provisions and procedures of Part 150; 

b. Program measures are reasonably 

consistent with achieving the goals of 

reducing existing non-compatible land 

uses around the airport and preventing 

the introduction of additional noncompatible land uses; 

c. Program measures would not create 

an undue burden on interstate or foreign 

commerce, unjustly discriminate against 

types or classes of aeronautical uses, 

violate the terms of airport grant 

agreements, or intrude into areas 

preempted by the Federal Government; 

and 

d. Program measures relating to the 

use of flight procedures can be 

implemented within the period covered 

by the program without derogating 

safety, adversely affecting the efficient 

use and management of the navigable 

airspace and air traffic control systems, 

or adversely affecting other powers and 

responsibilities of the Administrator 

prescribed by law. 

Specific limitations with respect to 

FAA’s approval of an airport noise 

compatibility program are delineated in 

Part 150, section 150.5. Approval is not 

a determination concerning the 

acceptability of land uses under Federal, 

State, or local law. Approval does not by 

itself constitute an FAA implementing 

action. A request for Federal action or 

approval to implement specific noise 

compatibility measures may be 

required. Prior to an FAA decision on a 

request to implement the action, an 

environmental review of the proposed 

action may be required. Approval does 

not constitute a commitment by the 

FAA to financially assist in the 

implementation of the program nor a 

determination that all measures covered 

by the program are eligible for grant-inaid funding from the FAA under 

applicable law contained in Title 49
