DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Federal Aviation Administration
Noise Exposure Map Notice, Friedman Memorial Airport, Hailey,
Idaho
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces its
determination that the noise exposure map submitted by Friedman
Memorial Airport (SUN) 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 requirements.
EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of the FAA's determination on the
Friedman Memorial Airport noise exposure map is July 1, 1994.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT; Dennis Ossenkop, FAA, Airports
Division, ANM-611, 1601 Lind Avenue SW., Renton, Washington, 98055-
4056.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA finds
that the noise exposure map for Friedman Memorial Airport is in
compliance with applicable requirements of Part 150, effective July 1,
1994.
Under Section 103 of Title I of the Aviation Safety and Noise
Abatement Act of 1979 (herein after 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 maps, a description of projected
aircraft operations, and the ways in which such operations will affect
such maps. The Act requires such maps 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 has
been found by FAA to be in compliance with the requirements of Federal
Aviation Regulation (FAA) 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 reduction of existing noncompatible uses and for the prevention of
the introduction of additional noncompatible uses.
The FAA has completed its review of the noise exposure map and
related descriptions submitted by SUN. The specific map under
consideration if Figure 1.1 in the addendum of the submission. The FAA
has determined that the map for Friedman Memorial Airport is in
compliance with applicable requirements. This determination is
effective on July 1, 1994. FAA's determination on an airport operator's
noise exposure map is limited to the determination that the map was
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 noise exposure maps
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 maps 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 noise exposure maps.
Therefore, the responsibility for the detailed overlaying of noise
exposure contours onto the maps depicting properties on the surface
rests exclusively with the airport operator which submitted those maps,
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 airport operator, under Sec. 150.21
of the FAR Part 150, that the statutorily required consultation has
been accomplished. Copies of the noise exposure map and of the FAA's
evaluation of the map are available for examination at the following
locations:

Washington, D.C.

Avenue SW., Renton, Washington, 98055-4056
Friedman Memorial Airport, Hailey, Idaho.
Question may be directed to the individual named above under the
heading, FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
Issued in Renton, Washington, July 1, 1994.
