Federal Aviation Administration
Noise Exposure Map Notice; Receipt of
Noise Compatibility Program and
Request for Review; Danbury
Municipal Airport; Danbury, CT
AGENCY: Federal Aviation
Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) announces its
determination that the noise exposure
map for Danbury Municipal Airport, as
pwalker on PRODPC60 with NOTICES
submitted by the City of Danbury under
the provisions of Title I of the Aviation
Safety and Noise Abatement Act of 1979
(Pub. L. 96–193) and 14 CFR Part 150,
is in compliance with applicable
VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:49 Sep 18, 2006 Jkt 208001
requirements. The FAA also announces
that it is reviewing a proposed noise
compatibility program that was
submitted for Danbury Municipal
Airport under Part 150 in conjunction
with the noise exposure map, and that
this program will be approved or
disapproved on or before March 9, 2007.
EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of the
FAA’s determination on the noise
exposure map and of the start of its
review of the associated noise
compatibility program is September 6,
2006. The public comment period ends
on November 6, 2006.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John
C. Silva, Federal Aviation
Administration, New England Region,
Airports Division, ANE–600, 12 New
England Executive Park, Burlington, MA
01803.
Comments on the proposed noise
compatibility program should also be
submitted to the above office.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice announces that the FAA finds
that the noise exposure map submitted
for Danbury Municipal Airport is in
compliance with applicable
requirements of Part 150, effective
September 6, 2006. Further, FAA is
reviewing a proposed noise
compatibility program for that airport
which will be approved or disapproved
on or before March 9, 2007. This notice
also announces the availability of this
program for public review and
comment.
Under Section 103 of Title I of the
Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement
Act of 1979 (hereinafter referred to as
‘‘the Act’’), an airport operator may
submit to the FAA a noise exposure
map which meets applicable regulations
and which depicts noncompatible land
uses as of the date of submission of such
map, a description of projected aircraft
operations, and the ways in which such
operations will affect such map. The Act
requires such map 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 a noise exposure map that is
found by FAA to be in compliance with
the requirements of Federal Aviation
Regulation (FAR) Part 150, promulgated
pursuant to Title I of the Act, may
submit a noise compatibility program
for FAA approval which sets forth the
measures the operator has taken, or
proposes, for the introduction of
additional non-compatible uses.
The City of Danbury submitted to the
FAA, on September 6, 2006, a noise
exposure map, descriptions, and other
documentation that were produced
PO 00000 Frm 00072 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\19SEN1.SGM
during the Airport Noise Compatibility
Planning (Part 150) study at Danbury
Municipal airport from October 2003 to
July 2006. It was requested that the FAA
review this material as the noise
exposure map, as described in Section
103(a)(1) of the Act, 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.
The FAA has completed its review of
the noise exposure maps and related
descriptions submitted by City of
Danbury. The specific maps under
consideration were:
Danbury Airport, Part 150 Study—
Noise Exposure Map:
1. Base Year 2003 Average Daily
Noise Contours
2. Future Year 2008 Baseline DNL
Noise Contours
The FAA has determined that the
maps for Danbury Municipal Airport are
in compliance with applicable
requirements. This determination is
effective on September 6, 2006.
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
FAR 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 103 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 map
to resolve questions concerning, for
example, which properties should be
covered by the provisions of Section 107
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 a noise exposure map.
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 the map, or with those
public agencies and planning agencies
with which consultation is required
under Section 103 of the Act. The FAA
has relied on the certification by the
19SEN1
 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 181 / Tuesday, September 19, 2006 / Notices
airport operator, under Section 150.21
of FAR Part 150, that the statutorily
required consultation has been
accomplished.
The FAA has formally received the
noise compatibility program for
Danbury Municipal Airport, also
effective on September 6, 2006.
Preliminary review of the submitted
material indicates that it conforms to the
requirements for the submittal of noise
compatibility programs, but that further
review will be necessary prior to
approval or disapproval of the program.
The formal review period, limited by
law to a maximum of 180 days, will be
completed on or before March 9, 2007.
The FAA’s detailed evaluation will be
conducted under the provisions of 14
CFR Part 150, Section 150.33. The
primary considerations in the
evaluation process are whether the
proposed measures may reduce the level
of aviation safety, create an undue
burden on interstate or foreign
commerce, or be reasonably consistent
with obtaining the goal of reducing
existing non compatible land uses and
preventing the introduction of
additional non-compatible land uses.
Interested persons are invited to
comment on the proposed program with
specific reference to these factors. All
comments, other than those properly
addressed to local land use authorities,
will be considered by the FAA to the
extent practicable. Copies of the noise
exposure map, the FAA’s evaluation of
the map, and the proposed noise
compatibility program are available for
examination at the following locations:
Danbury Municipal Airport, Danbury,
CT.

England Region, Airports Division,
