Federal Aviation Administration 

Noise Exposure Map Notice for Hilo 

International Airport, Hilo, Hawaii 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration, (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The FAA announces its 

determination that the noise exposure 

maps submitted by Hawaii State 

Department of Transportation, Airports 

Division (HDOT–A), for Hilo 

International Airport under the 

provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47501 et. seq 

(Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement 

Act) and 14 CFR part 150 are in 

compliance with applicable 

requirements. 

DATES: This notice is effective July 9, 

2013, and applicable May 31, 2013. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Gordon Wong, Environmental 

Protection Specialist, FAA WesternPacific Region, Honolulu Airports 

District Office, 300 Ala Moana 

Boulevard, Room 7–128, Honolulu, 

Hawaii, telephone number (808) 541– 

1232. Documents reflecting this FAA 

action may be reviewed at this same 

location. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice announces that the FAA finds 

that the noise exposure maps submitted 

for Hilo International Airport are in 

compliance with applicable 

requirements of Title 14, Code of 

Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 150 

(hereinafter referred to as ‘‘Part 150’’), 

effective May 31, 2013. Under 49 U.S.C. 

section 47503 of the Aviation Safety and 

Noise Abatement Act (hereinafter 

referred to as ‘‘the Act’’), an airport 

operator may submit to the FAA noise 

exposure maps which meet applicable 

regulations and which depict noncompatible land uses as of the date of 

submission of such maps, a description 

of projected aircraft operations, and the 

ways in which such operations will 

affect such maps. The Act requires such 

maps to be developed in consultation 

with interested and affected parties in 

the local community, government 

agencies, and persons using the airport. 

An airport operator who has submitted 

noise exposure maps that are found by 

FAA to be in compliance with the 

requirements of Part 150, promulgated 

pursuant to the Act, may submit a noise 

compatibility program for FAA approval 

which sets forth the measures the 

operator has taken or proposes to take 

to reduce existing non-compatible uses 

and prevent the introduction of 

additional non-compatible uses. 

The FAA has completed its review of 

the noise exposure maps and 

accompanying documentation 

submitted by HDOT–A. The 

documentation that constitutes the 

‘‘Noise Exposure Maps’’ as defined in 

section 150.7 of Part 150 includes: 

Exhibit 1 ‘‘Existing (2013) Noise 

Exposure Map’’ and Exhibit 2 ‘‘Future 

(2018) Noise Exposure Map.’’ The FAA 

has determined that these noise 

exposure maps and accompanying 

documentation are in compliance with 

applicable requirements. This 

determination is effective on May 31, 

2013. 

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 

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 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:
