Federal Aviation Administration 

Noise Exposure Maps for Jack 

Northup/Hawthorne Municipal Airport, 

Hawthorne, Los Angeles County, 

California 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration, DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of acceptance of Noise 

Exposure Maps. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) announces its 

determination that the noise exposure 

maps submitted by the City of 

Hawthorne for Jack Northup/Hawthorne 

Municipal Airport are in compliance 

with applicable requirements. 

DATES: The effective date of the FAA’s 

determination on the noise exposure 

maps is July 8, 2022. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

David B. Kessler, AICP, Regional 

Environmental Protection Specialist, 

777 South Aviation Boulevard, El 

Segundo, California 90045. Telephone 

424–405–7315. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice announces that the FAA finds 

that the noise exposure maps submitted 

for Jack Northup/Hawthorne Municipal 

Airport are in compliance with 

applicable requirements, effective July 

8, 2022. Under 49 U.S.C. 47503 of the 

Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement 

Act (hereinafter referred to as ‘‘the 

Act’’), and Title 14, Code of Federal 

Regulations (CFR) part 150, 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 the City of Hawthorne. 

The documentation that constitutes the 

‘‘Noise Exposure Maps’’ as defined in 

section 150.7 of part 150 includes: the 

radar flight tracks (Chapter 2; Exhibit 

2C); the existing and future consolidated 

arrival, departure, local and helicopter 

flight tracks (Chapter 2; Exhibits 2D, 2E, 

2F); the 2020 Noise Exposure Map 

(Introduction, Exhibit 1) and 2025 Noise 

Exposure Map (Introduction, Exhibit 2), 

both depicting the runway location, 

airport boundaries, and location of noise 

sensitive public buildings over a land 

use map of a sufficient scale and quality 

to discern streets and other identifiable 

geographic features; the location of the 

noise monitoring sites (Chapter 2; Table 

2H, Exhibit 2J); and the estimates of the 

number of people residing within the 

CNEL 65, 70, and 75 dB contours in 

2020 and 2025 (Chapter 3; Table 3B, 

Table 3D). The FAA has determined that 

these noise exposure maps and 

accompanying documentation are in 

compliance with applicable 

requirements. This determination is 

effective on July 8, 2022. 

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 online at https://

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

AMHP was established by Section 1121 

of the Energy Independence and 

Security Act of 2007 to reduce landside 

congestion through the designation of 

Marine Highway Routes. Section 405 of 

the Coast Guard and Maritime 

Transportation Act of 2012 further 

expanded the scope of the program to 

increase the utilization and efficiency of 

domestic freight transportation on 

Marine Highway Routes between U.S. 

ports by including routes that do not 

have parallel landside routes. The 

National Defense Authorization Act for 

Fiscal Year 2016 expanded the 

definition of short sea shipping (now 

referred to as marine highway 

transportation) to include freight 

vehicles carried aboard commuter ferry 

boats and cargo shipped in discrete 

units—or packages that are handled 

individually, palletized, or unitized 

specifically for transport. In addition, 

the revised final rule at 46 CFR part 393, 

which outlines the scope of the AMHP, 

became effective on January 2, 2018. 

The Department’s objective through 

this program is to reduce landside 

congestion and increase the use of 

domestic marine highway transportation 

by supporting the development of 

transportation options for shippers. 

These services provide economic and 

environmental benefits to the U.S. 

public at large. Marine Highway 

Designated Projects can improve safety 

and system resilience, and serve to 

reduce transportation-related air 

emissions, transportation costs for 

shippers, energy consumption, and 

costs associated with landside 

transportation infrastructure. Currently, 

the AMHP includes Marine Highway 

Routes in the continental U.S. in 

addition to the non-contiguous states of 

Hawaii and Alaska as well as the U.S. 

territories of Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin 

Islands, American Samoa, Guam, and 

the Commonwealth of the Northern 

Mariana Islands. The AMHP includes 

projects that move freight along 

America’s coastlines or waterways. For 

example, the change in definition to add 

freight vehicles carried on commuter 

passenger ferries allowed the AMHP to 

provide Federal support to several 

existing ferry services. The addition of
