DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Aviation Administration 

Approval of Noise Compatibility 

Program 14 CFR Part 150; Detroit 

Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, 

Detroit, MI 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration, DOT. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) announces its 

findings on the noise compatibility 

program (NCP) submitted by Wayne 

County Airport Authority under the 

provisions of 49 U.S.C. (the Aviation 

Safety and Noise Abatement Act, 

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

14 CFR part 150. These findings are 

made in recognition of the description 

of Federal and nonfederal 

responsibilities in Senate Report No. 

96–52 (1980). The Detroit Metropolitan 

Wayne County Airport noise exposure 

maps were determined by FAA to be in 

compliance with applicable 

requirements on March 7, 2006. Notice 

of this determination was published in 

the Federal Register on March 21, 2006, 

Federal Register volume 71, number 54, 

page 14282. 

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 

Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) 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 FAR 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 FAR 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. 

The submitted program contained 

twenty proposed actions for noise 

mitigation on and off the airport, as 

applicable. The FAA completed its 

review and determined that the 

procedural and substantive 

requirements of the Act and FAR part 

150 have been satisfied. 

On June 1, 2009, the FAA approved 

the Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County 

Airport noise compatibility program. 

Fourteen of the twenty 

recommendations of the program were 

approved. Three recommendations are 


sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 121 / Thursday, June 25, 2009 / Notices 30355 

related to revised flight procedures for 

noise abatement and require no action at 

this time. Three recommendations were 

disapproved at this time. 

Specific limitations with respect to 

FAA’s approval of an airport noise 

compatibility program are delineated in 

FAR 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, and an FAA decision on the 

request may require an environmental 

assessment of the proposed action. 

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-in-aid funding from the 

FAA. Where Federal funding is sought, 

requests for project grants must be 

submitted to the FAA Detroit Airports 

District Office. 

These determinations are set forth in 

detail in a Record of Approval signed by 

Deb Roth on June 1, 2009. The Record 

of Approval, as well as other evaluation 

materials and the documents 

comprising the submittal, are available 

for review at the FAA office listed above 

and at the administrative offices of the 

Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County 

Airport. The Record of Approval also 

will be available on-line at http:// 

www.faa.gov/airports_airtraffic/ 

airports/environmental/airport_noise/ 

part_150/states/. 

DATES: Effective Date: The effective date 

of the FAA’s approval of the Detroit 

Metropolitan Wayne County Airport 

noise compatibility program is June 1, 

2009.

Federal Aviation Administration 

Approval of Noise Compatibility 

Program 14 CFR Part 150; General 

Mitchell International Airport, 

Milwaukee, WI 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration, DOT. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) announces its 

findings on the noise compatibility 

program (NCP) submitted by General 

Mitchell International Airport under the 

provisions of 49 U.S.C. (the Aviation 

Safety and Noise Abatement Act, 

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

14 CFR Part 150. These findings are 

made in recognition of the description 

of Federal and nonfederal 

responsibilities in Senate Report No. 

96–52 (1980). The General Mitchell 

International Airport noise exposure 

maps were determined by FAA to be in 

compliance with applicable 

requirements on December 24, 2008. 

Notice of this determination was 

published in the Federal Register on 

January 15, 2009, Federal Register 

volume 74, number 10, page 2645. 

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 

Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) 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 FAR 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 FAR 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. 

The submitted program contained 

sixteen proposed actions for noise 

mitigation on and off the airport, as 

applicable. The FAA completed its 

review and determined that the 

procedural and substantive 

requirements of the Act and FAR Part 

150 have been satisfied. 

On June 4, 2009, the FAA approved 

the General Mitchell International 

Airport noise compatibility program. 

Ten of the sixteen recommendations of 

the program were approved. Six 

recommendations were disapproved at 

this time. 

Specific limitations with respect to 

FAA’s approval of an airport noise 

compatibility program are delineated in 

FAR 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, and an FAA decision on the 

request may require an environmental 

assessment of the proposed action. 

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-in-aid funding from the 

FAA. Where federal funding is sought, 

requests for project grants must be 

submitted to the FAA Minneapolis 

Airports District Office. 

These determinations are set forth in 

detail in a Record of Approval signed by 

Deb Roth on June 4, 2009. The Record 

of Approval, as well as other evaluation 

materials and the documents 

comprising the submittal, are available
