[Federal Register Volume 80, Number 149 (Tuesday, August 4, 2015)] [Notices] [Page 46384] From the Federal Register Online [www.thefederalregister.org] [FR Doc No: 2015-19142] [[Page 46384]] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration Receipt of Noise Compatibility Program and Request for Review; Laughlin/Bullhead International Airport, Bullhead City, Arizona AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT. ACTION: Notice. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces that it is reviewing a proposed noise compatibility program that was submitted for Laughlin/Bullhead International Airport under the provisions of Title 49 United States Code, Section 47501 et seq. (the Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act, hereinafter referred to as ``the Act'') and 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 150 by the Mohave County Airport Authority. This program was submitted subsequent to a determination by FAA that associated noise exposure maps submitted under 14 CFR part 150 for Laughlin/Bullhead International Airport were in compliance with applicable requirements, effective November 21, 2013 (Federal Register Volume 78, No. 230, 11-29-2013). The proposed noise compatibility program will be approved or disapproved on or before January 18, 2016. DATES: Effective Date: This notice is effective August 4, 2015 and is applicable beginning July 23, 2015. The public comment period ends September 21, 2015. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jared M. Raymond, Airport Planner, Phoenix Airports District Office, Phoenix, Arizona, (602) 792-1072. Comments on the proposed noise compatibility program should also be submitted to the above office. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA is reviewing a proposed noise compatibility program for Laughlin/Bullhead International Airport which will be approved or disapproved on or before January 18, 2016. This notice also announces the availability of this program for public review and comment. An airport operator who has submitted noise exposure maps that are found by FAA to be in compliance with the requirements of Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) 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 reduce existing non-compatible uses and prevent the introduction of additional non-compatible uses. The FAA has formally received the noise compatibility program for Laughlin/Bullhead International Airport, effective on July 23, 2015. The airport operator has 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 47504 of the Act. Preliminary review of the submitted material indicates that it conforms to FAR Part 150 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 January 18, 2016. 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 or create an undue burden on interstate or foreign commerce, and whether they are 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 relating to these factors, 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 maps and the proposed noise compatibility program are available for examination at the following locations during normal business hours: Federal Aviation Administration, Western Pacific Region, Airports Division, Room 3012, 15000 Aviation Boulevard, Hawthorne, California, 90261 Federal Aviation Administration, Phoenix Airports District Office, 3800 N.
