Abatement Act of 1979 (Public Law 96–

193) (hereinafter referred to as ‘‘the

Act’’) and 14 CFR part 150 by the

Commonwealth Ports Authority. This

program was submitted subsequent to a

determination by the FAA that the

associated noise exposure maps

submitted under 14 CFR part 150 for

Saipan International Airport were in

compliance with applicable

requirements effective February 14,

1994. The proposed noise compatibility

program will be approved or

disapproved on or before September 25,

1995.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of the

start of FAA’s review of the noise

compatibility program is March 29,

1995. The public comment period ends

additional noncompatible uses.

The FAA has formally received the

noise compatibility program for Saipan

International Airport, effective on

March 29, 1995. 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
