Code of Massachusetts Regulations › 740 CMR - MASSACHUSETTS PORT AUTHORITY › Title 740 CMR 25.00 - Special Provisions - L.g. Hanscom Field › Section 25.02 - Noise Abatement Operating Restrictions

Current through Register 1525, July 5, 2024
(1) No fixed wing aircraft with a maximum
			 certificated gross takeoff weight greater than 12,500 pounds shall conduct an
			 operation at Hanscom Field, other than an operation necessitated by an
			 in-flight emergency, unless that aircraft is certificated for compliance with
			 applicable noise emission standards established in Part 36 of the Federal
			 Aviation Regulations ("FAR Part 36"). For purposes of
			 740 CMR 25.00 an aircraft
			 shall be treated as certificated for compliance with FAR Part 36 if it is a
			 fixed wing aircraft which had flight time prior to December 31, 1974, and a
			 showing is made to the reasonable satisfaction of the Executive Director that
			 its noise level on takeoff is less than the FAR Part 36 noise level for
			 aircraft of its weight first flown subsequent to December 31, 1974.
To make the showing of Part 36 equivalence called for in the
				foregoing paragraph an operator of the aircraft shall produce the following
				documentation satisfactory to the Executive Director:
(a) certificate indicating date of
			 manufacture; and
(b)
1. noise emission measurement data taken
			 during test conditions approved by the F AA or which have been published in an
			 FAA Advisory Circularasthe noise emission measurement or FAA estimated noise
			 measurement for the aircraft type in question for FAR Part 36 comparison
			 purposes.
2. if 740 CMR
			 25.02(1)(b)1. is unavailable, noise emission data and calculations which
			 demonstrate to the Executive Director probable compliance with the applicable
			 FAR Part 36 noise level for takeoff at the aircraft's certified maximum gross
			 takeoff weight are acceptable. If this alternative method is the basis for
			 obtaining permission to operate at Hanscom Field, such permission may be
			 revoked if subsequent measurement of its takeoff noise at Hanscom Field exceeds
			 the applicable FARP art 36 take off noise level. The measurement shall be taken
			 at the takeoff position with wind, humidity and temperature conditions meeting
			 the allowable FAR Part 36 conditions. For the purpose of this determination, if
			 the A-weighted sound is measured, the EPNL is deemed to be 4 dB greater than
			 the A-weighted sound exposure level.

Current through Register 1525, July 5, 2024
In the event the Monitoring Program projects Overscheduling
				conditions that would result in Peak Period conditions, the Authority will
				provide to the FAA and to each Operator conducting scheduled commercial air
				transportation service at BOS registered with the Office of the Authority's
				Aviation Director advance notice of the Authority's intent to impose a Peak
				Period surcharge, absent elimination of such projected overscheduling
				conditions, and the anticipated level of such surcharge. Such notice shall be
				provided up to six months in advance of the declaration of Peak Period
				conditions, if feasible. Such notice shall also be provided to each Fixed Base
				Operator and shall be posted in the General Aviation Terminal at BOS.

			 schedules or other intended use of BOS to such an extent as to avoid the need
			 for the declaration of Peak Period conditions under
			 740 CMR
			 27.05; and
(b) FAA with an opportunity, if it chooses,
			 to establish or participate in the process to examine and, if appropriate,
			 implement such voluntary schedule modifications. Unless the Chief Executive

			 modifications will avoid Over scheduling conditions, the Chief Executive
			 Officer may declare Peak Period conditions in accordance with
			 740 CMR
			 27.05.

			 CMR 27.06(1), and any other subsequent surcharge established in accordance with
			 740 CMR 27.06(2), may be adjusted by the Authority from time to time for the
			 purpose of aligning Demand for use of the Runway Facilities with the Capacity
			 of said Runway Facilities in order to prevent the average delay time for
			 operations during the Peak Period from exceeding an average of 15 minutes (or
			 such other level as may be established by the FAA as its standard for measuring
			 flight delay) for three or more consecutive hours under VFR conditions.
In making any adjustment in the Peak Period surcharge, the
				Authority shall take into account the mix of aircraft types operating during
				the Peak Period, the total number of projected Operations, airport costs,
				including opportunity costs during the Peak Period, the effects on Demand of
				imposing the additional costs associated with the Peak Period surcharge
				adjustment.

				surcharge, notice of such adjustment shall be provided by the Chief Executive
				Officer to the FAA, to each Operator providing scheduled commercial air
				transportation services at BOS registered with the Office of the Aviation
				Director, and to each Fixed Base Operator; shall be posted in the General
