requirements of § 158.15;

level above $3.00 meets the require-
ments of § 158.17(a)(2) and (3);

plan, airspace, and environmental re-
quirements have been met for each 
project; 

(E) Any request by the public agency 

to exclude a class of carriers from the 
requirement to collect the PFC is rea-
sonable, not arbitrary, nondiscrim-
inatory, and otherwise complies with 
the law; and 

(F) The consultation and public com-

ment processes complied with §§ 158.23 
and 158.24. 

(2) The FAA will also make a deter-

mination regarding the public agency’s 
compliance with 49 U.S.C. 47524 and 
47526 governing airport noise and ac-
cess restrictions and 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) 
governing the use of airport revenue. 
Finally, the FAA will review all com-
ments filed during the air carrier con-
sultation and public comment proc-
esses.

FAA acknowledgment of notices of 

intent. 

Within 30 days of receipt of the 

public agency’s notice of intent about 
its PFC program, the FAA will issue a 
written acknowledgment of the public 
agency’s notice. The FAA’s acknowl-
edgment may concur with all proposed 
projects, may object to some or all pro-
posed projects, or may object to the no-
tice of intent in its entirety. The 
FAA’s acknowledgment will include
