Subpart B—Development of Noise 

Exposure Maps and Noise 
Compatibility Programs 

§ 150.21

Noise exposure maps and re-

lated descriptions. 

(a) Each airport operator may after 

completion of the consultations and 
public procedure specified under para-
graph (b) of this section submit to the 
Regional Airports Division Manager 
five copies of the noise exposure map 
(or revised map) which identifies each 
noncompatible land use in each area 
depicted on the map, as of the date of 
submission, and five copies of a map 
each with accompanying documenta-
tion setting forth— 

(1) The noise exposure based on fore-

cast aircraft operations at the airport 

for a forecast period that is at least 5 
years in the future, beginning after the 
date of submission (based on reason-
able assumptions concerning future 
type and frequency of aircraft oper-
ations, number of nighttime oper-
ations, flight patterns, airport layout 
including any planned airport develop-
ment, planned land use changes, and 
demographic changes in the sur-
rounding areas); and 

(2) The nature and extent, if any, to 

which those forecast operations will af-
fect the compatibility and land uses 
depicted on the map. 

(b) Each map, and related docu-

mentation submitted under this sec-
tion must be developed and prepared in 
accordance with appendix A of this 
part, or an FAA approved equivalent, 
and in consultation with states, and 
public agencies and planning agencies 
whose area, or any portion of whose 
area, of jurisdiction is within the L

dn

65 

dB contour depicted on the map, FAA 
regional officials, and other Federal of-
ficials having local responsibility for 
land uses depicted on the map. This 
consultation must include regular 
aeronautical users of the airport. The 
airport operator shall certify that it 
has afforded interested persons ade-
quate opportunity to submit their 
views, data, and comments concerning 
the correctness and adequacy of the 
draft noise exposure map and descrip-
tions of forecast aircraft operations. 
Each map and revised map must be ac-
companied by documentation describ-
ing the consultation accomplished 
under this paragraph and the opportu-
nities afforded the public to review and 
comment during the development of 
the map. One copy of all written com-
ments received during consultation 
shall also be filed with the Regional 
Airports Division Manager. 

(c) The Regional Airports Division 

Manager acknowledges receipt of noise 
exposure maps and descriptions and in-
dicates whether they are in compliance 
with the applicable requirements. The 
Regional Airports Division Manager 
publishes in the F

EDERAL

R

EGISTER

a 

notice of compliance for each such 
noise exposure map and description, 
identifying the airport involved. Such 
notice includes information as to when
