Approval of Noise Compatibility Program

Palm Beach International Airport

West Palm Beach, FL

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces its 
findings on the noise compatibility program submitted by Palm Beach 
County 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. These 
findings are made in recognition of the description of Federal and 
nonfederal responsibilities in Senate Report No. 96-52 (1980). On 
February 1, 1993, the FAA determined that the noise exposure maps 
submitted by Palm Beach County under Part 150 were in compliance with 
applicable requirements. On November 18, 1994, the FAA determined that 
the revised future noise exposure map was in compliance with applicable 
requirements. On May 17, 1995, the Administrator approved the Palm 
Beach International Airport noise compatibility program. Twenty-four 
(24) recommendations of the program were approved and one (1) 
recommendation was partially approved.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of the FAA's approval of the Palm 
Beach International Airport noise compatibility program is May 17, 
1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA has given 
its overall approval to the noise compatibility program for the Palm 

[[Page 34573]]
Beach International Airport, effective May 17, 1995.

    Under section 104(a) of the Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement act 
(ASNA) of 1979 (hereinafter referred to as ``the Act''), an airport 
operator who has previously submitted a noise exposure map may submit 
to the FAA a noise compatibility program which sets forth the measures 
taken or proposed by the airport operator for the reduction of existing 
noncompatible land uses and prevention of additional noncompatible land 
uses within the area covered by the noise exposure maps. The Act 
requires such programs to be developed in consultation with interested 
and affected parties including local communities, government agencies, 
airport users, and FAA personnel.
    Each airport noise compatibility program developed in accordance 
with Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) part 150 is a local program, 
not a Federal program. The FAA does not substitute its judgment for 
that of the airport proprietor with respect to which measure should be 
recommended for action. The FAA's approval or disapproval of FAR part 
150 program recommendations is measured according to the standards 
expressed in part 150 and the Act, and is limited to the following 
determinations;
    a. The noise compatibility program was developed in accordance with 
the provisions and procedures of FAR part 150;
    b. Program measures are reasonably consistent with achieving the 
goals of reducing existing noncompatible land uses around the airport 
and preventing the introduction of additional noncompatible land uses;
    c. Program measurers would not create an undue burden on interstate 
or foreign commerce, unjustly discriminate against types or classes of 
aeronautical users, violate the terms of airport grant agreements, or 
intrude into areas preempted by the Federal Government; and
    d. Program measures relating to the use of flight procedures can be 
implemented within the period covered by the program without derogating 
safety, adversely affecting the efficient use and management of the 
navigable airspace and air traffic control systems, or adversely 
affecting other powers and responsibilities of the Administrator 
prescribed by law.
    Specific limitations with respect to FAA's approval of an airport 
noise compatibility program are delineated in FAR part 150, Sec. 150.5. 
Approval is not a determination concerning the acceptability of land 
uses under Federal, state, or local law. Approval does not by itself 
constitute an FAA implementing action. A request for Federal action or 
approval to implement specific noise compatibility measures may be 
required, and a FAA decision on the request may require an 
environmental assessment of the proposed action. Approval does not 
constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially assist in the 
implementation of the program nor a determination that all measures 
covered by the program are eligible for grant-in-aid funding from the 
FAA. Where Federal funding is sought, requests for project grants must 
be submitted to the FAA Airports District Office in Orlando, Florida.
    Palm Beach County submitted to the FAA on January 29, 1993, the 
noise exposure maps, descriptions, and other documentation produced 
during the noise compatibility planning study conducted from March 21, 
1991, through October 4, 1994. The Palm Beach International Airport 
Noise exposure maps were determined by FAA to be in compliance with 
applicable requirements on February 1, 1993. A revised future noise 
exposure map was submitted to the FAA on October 6, 1994. The revised 
future noise exposure map was determined by FAA to be in compliance 
with applicable requirements on November 18, 1994. Notice of these 
determinations was published in the Federal Register.
    The Palm Beach International Airport study contains a proposed 
noise compatibility program comprised of actions designed for phased 
implementation by airport management and adjacent jurisdictions from 
the date of study completion to the year 1998. It was requested that 
FAA evaluate and approve this material as a noise compatibility program 
as described in section 104(b) of the Act. The FAA began its review of 
the program on November 18, 1994, and was required by a provision of 
the Act to approve or disapprove the program within 180 days (other 
than the use of new flight procedures for noise control). Failure to 
approve or disapprove such program within the 180-day period shall be 
deemed to be an approval of such program.
    The submitted program contained twenty-five (25) proposed actions 
for noise mitigation on and off the airport. The FAA completed its 
review and determined that the procedural and substantive requirements 
of the Act and FAR part 150 have been satisfied. The overall program, 
therefore, was approved by the Administrator effective May 17, 1995.
    Outright approval was granted for twenty-four (24) of the specific 
program elements. One (1) program element for local environmental 
review was partially approved. Measures pertaining to FAR part 77 
height criteria associated with Part 77 height/hazard zoning was 
disapproved. The approval action was for the following program 
elements:

Operational elements:                                                                                           
  1. Noise Abatement Flight Paths for Turbojet Aircraft. Runways 27R, 13 and   NCP, pages 31-34, Tables 2.2     
   31: Eliminate multiple noise abatement flight paths from these runways.      (page 15) and 3.2 (page 61);    
   All departing aircraft shall be assigned runway heading or corresponding     PBIA Noise Abatement Bulletin.  
   wind corrected heading, regardless of Part 36 Stage. Runway 9L: Continue                                     
   the use of multiple departure flight paths but eliminate the north turn                                      
   departure track (075 heading) at the point in time at which the                                              
   elimination of the northern track would not increase the cumulative noise                                    
   level at any residential noise-sensitive area within the 65 dB DNL contour                                   
   by 1.5 dB or greater. After the north departure path is eliminated, all                                      
   aircraft shall be assigned runway heading, or corresponding wind corrected                                   
   heading regardless of Part 36 Stage. The flight track improvements reduce                                    
   the population within the [DNL 65 dB] noise contours by approximately 13%,                                   
   from 9,889 to 8,636. FAA Action: Approved as a voluntary measure, wind                                       
   weather and traffic permitting. The airport operator intends to prepare                                      
   annual DNL contours (Measure 17, below), which will assist in carrying out                                   
   the recommendations for Runway 9L. In response to the FAA's notice about                                     
   the PBIA Part 150 NCP, the FAA received 59 comments, 54 of which were from                                   
   residents of communities each of the airport (Runway 9 end) and supported                                    
   continuation of multiple flight tracks. The NCP and a February 15, 1995,                                     
   letter from the airport sponsor indicate that the Part 150 Technical                                         
   Advisory Committee (TAC) carefully considered the alternative of continued                                   
   use of multiple flight tracks. The TAC included, among others, voting                                        
   representatives from the Town of Haverhill, the City of West Palm Beach,                                     
   the Town of Palm Beach, the Citizens Committee on Aircraft Noise, the Old                                    
   El Cid Noise Reduction Committee, and counsel for the residents who sued                                     
   the airport in 1989. The alternative selected was considered a compromise                                    
   because only some neighborhoods to the east supported continuation or                                        
   increase of fanning, while the City of West Palm Beach Commission, by                                        
   Resolution, and the majority of neighborhoods within West Palm Beach                                         
   supported total elimination of fanning. The majority of the population                                       
   within the five-year DNL 65 dB contour reside in West Palm Beach.                                            
  2. Preferential Runway Use Program. Corporate jet departures will be         NCP, pages 35-36, Tables 2.2 and 
   assigned Runway 31 when in the west flow. During the hours of 10 p.m. to     3.1; PBIA Noise Abatement       
   10 a.m. (off peak), Runway 27R will be the preferred runway, when safety     Bulletin; Appendix Volume, Table
   and weather permit; it also will be the preferred calm wind runway during    1, TAC Meeting #9, page 4.      
   this period. During the hours of 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. (peak traffic period),                                   
   runway 9L will be the preferred and designated calm wind runway. FAA                                         
   Action: Approved as a voluntary measure.                                                                     
  3. Noise Abatement Departure Procedures. The Department of Airports (DOA)    NCP, pages 36-38, and Tables 2.2 
   is in the process of analyzing the two Noise Abatement Departure             and 3.1; PBIA Noise Abatement   
   Procedures (NADP) alternatives from the revised AC 91-53A. Based on the      Bulletin, FAA Advisory Circular 
   results of that analysis, the DOA will work with the Citizen's Committee     91-53A, and letters dated 1/12/ 
   on Aircraft Noise (CCAN) to select a procedure (or procedures, if the FAA    95 and 3/14/95 from PBIA.       
   permits) for implementation at the airport. The DOA will provide test                                        
   results and final recommendations to the FAA at the earliest possible                                        
   date, including an evaluation of any effect on the Noise Exposure Maps                                       
   (NEM). FAA Action: Approved as a voluntary measure. Analysis of NADP                                         
   alternatives for air carriers greater than 75,000 pounds (mgtw) is                                           
   approved FOR STUDY ONLY. The airport operator may submit supplemental                                        
   information, including the noise benefits, upon completion of its study                                      
   and may request approval under Part 150 of specific departure procedure(s)                                   
   to be used for large aircraft.                                                                               
  4. Maintenance Runup Procedures. No procedural changes are necessary for     NCP, pages 38-39, Figure 2.4, and
   maintenance runups except that a revised runup request form should be        Tables 2.2 and 3.1; PBIA Noise  
   implemented for better record-keeping. FAA Action: Approved.                 Abatement Bulletin; Appendix    
                                                                                Volume, Section 1 of Appendix   
                                                                                A.2, Section 2.7 of Appendix    
                                                                                I.2.                            
LAND USE ELEMENTS: A combination of strategies in areas within the five year                                    
 forecast 65 dB LDN contours and neighboring ``buffer zones'' for                                               
 implementation were identified as being the most appropriate for inclusion                                     
 in the revised NCP.                                                                                            
  5. Sound Insulation. The ongoing program proposed for the revised NCP will   NCP, pages 41 and 42, Tables 2.2 
   have three main phases: Development of sound insulation program;             and 3.1; and Appendix J.2.      
   validation of the sound insulation program; and procedures for program                                       
   implementation. Modifications may be made based on the technical                                             
   assistance of the demonstration program. Any modifications will be based                                     
   on DOT/FAA/PP-92-5 ``Guidelines for the Sound Insulation of Residences                                       
   Exposed to Aircraft Operations.'' After the DOA assesses the success of                                      
   the demonstration program and the potential for the development of a large-                                  
   scale sound insulation program, prospective participants will be notified.                                   
   The DOA will follow FAA guidelines by encouraging and possibly requiring                                     
   participating homeowners to grant an avigation easement in exchange for                                      
   sound insulation modifications. The DOA will enter into a Homeowner                                          
   Participation Agreement with interested residents and implement the                                          
   program as funding becomes available. Four non-residential noise sensitive                                   
   sites within the revised 5-year NEM will also be offered the opportunity                                     
   to participate. The same guidelines will apply to these non-residential                                      
   sites. FAA Action: Approved.                                                                                 
  6. Easement Acquisition. The previous Noise Abatement and Mitigation Study   NCP, page 42, Figure 2.5, and    
   (NAMS) recommended the use of avigation easements as a remedial land use     Tables 2.2 and 3.1.             
   strategy. The DOA has, on an on-going basis, acquired avigation easements.                                   
   However, the easement acquisitions have not been part of a formal program.                                   
   As a recommended measure of the revised NCP, the easement acquisition                                        
   program will be implemented on a formal basis. Similar to the sound                                          
   insulation program, the DOA will enter into an easement acquisition                                          
   agreement and implement the program as funding becomes available. FAA                                        
   Action: Approved.                                                                                            
  7. Transaction Assistance. Transaction assistance was recommended in the     NCP, page 42, Figure 2.6, and    
   previous NCP; however, this measure was never implemented. The measure       Tables 2.2 and 3.1.             
   relates to assurances by the DOA that a homeowner, within the noise                                          
   exposure area, will receive assistance in the sale of affected structures.                                   
   In exchange, the homeowner would grant to the DOA an avigation easement.                                     
   The form of the assistance will be agreed to by the homeowner and the DOA                                    
   and will be determined for specific structures on an individual basis.                                       
   Homeowners' participation is voluntary. The DOA will publicize this                                          
   program and contact homeowners who may be eligible for participation. FAA                                    
   Action: Approved. This measure is subject to an evaluation at the time of                                    
   implementation with respect to Airport Improvement Program (AIP)                                             
   eligibility because some elements of the proposed transaction assistance                                     
   program may be ineligible for Federal funding.                                                               

[[Page 34575]]
                                                                                                                
  8. Land Acquisition and Relocation. The three previously described remedial  NCP, pages 45-46, and Tables 2.2 
   land use measures (sound insulation, easement acquisition, and transaction   and 3.1.                        
   assistance) are the primary remedial measures. If an individual or group                                     
   of property/home owner(s) and the DOA determine that the implementation of                                   
   any of the previous remedial measures are inadequate, then land                                              
   acquisition and relocation will be considered. The DOA will follow all FAA                                   
   noise land grant provisions for the purchase and disposal of property                                        
   purchased under this program. FAA Action: Approved.                                                          
  9. Comprehensive Planning. Local comprehensive plans presently reflect       NCP, page 47 and Tables 2.2 and  
   other impacts. Aircraft noise should also be considered. It is recommended   3.1.                            
   that local governments be strongly encouraged to amend their plans through                                   
   plan amendments. In order to implement this measure successfully, the DOA                                    
   will coordinate with each jurisdiction as to the timing and content of                                       
   plan amendments. FAA Action: Approved.                                                                       
  10. Zoning. The previous noise study recommended zoning be addressed         NCP, page 47, Appendix J.2, and  
   through the land development regulations. Draft text amendments have been    Tables 2.2 and 3.1.             
   developed which address the conversion of incompatibly zoned land to                                         
   compatibly zoned. The DOA is working with the Palm Beach County Planning,                                    
   Building, and Zoning Departments on strengthening the ordinance. It is a                                     
   recommendation that the ordinance include: specific reference to the NEMs                                    
   and the affected areas (including references to the current annual maps                                      
   within the body of the ordinance), a change in the use regulation table to                                   
   include a noise/land use compatibility determination, specific prohibition                                   
   on zoning approval for noise sensitive sites within the designated noise                                     
   affected areas. FAA Action: Approved.                                                                        
  11. Local Environmental Review. A formal local environmental review program  NCP, page 48 and Tables 2.2 and  
   should be established, with thresholds or mechanisms to trigger a local      3.1.                            
   environmental review of proposed development if it lies within the                                           
   environs surrounding PBIA. The following measures are recommended:                                           
   designation of a governmental/airport liaison staff position to address,                                     
   among other issues, airport/community development issues; environmental                                      
   review of new development shall include zoning review, building structure                                    
   and content, height review using FAR part 77 criteria and local land use                                     
   regulations, noise/land use compatibility based on FAR part 150 guidelines                                   
   and, when approved, the Palm Beach County airport land use compatibility                                     
   zoning ordinance; and formal coordination meetings between the liaison and                                   
   other local government staff be held on a monthly basis. FAA Action:                                         
   Approved except for measures pertaining to FAR part 77 height criteria,                                      
   which is disapproved for purposes of part 150. Part 77 height/hazard                                         
   zoning is not a noise mitigation measure and is not approvable under part                                    
   150. The airport operator is encouraged to incorporate part 77 into its                                      
   overall environmental review process.                                                                        
  12. Real Estate Disclosure. This measure involves disclosure to a potential  NCP, pages 48-49 and Tables 2.2  
   property/homeowner of a property's location relative to noise exposure       and 3.1                         
   contours of PBIA. A real estate disclosure program addressing the                                            
   following is recommended: Make the revised NEMs and NCP matters of public                                    
   record; update the public record of the NEMs and NCP annually; provide all                                   
   officially listed realtors in Palm Beach County with information detailing                                   
   noise contours every six months; and include a noise notice in the public                                    
   record and real estate information. Guidelines of the Florida DOT and Real                                   
   Estate Code, agents are obligated to inform prospective buyers of any                                        
   known or potential issues of which they are aware. The burden of                                             
   notification is shifted from the DOA to the real estate agents. FAA                                          
   Action: Approved.                                                                                            
  13. Building Code Revision. This measure references the revision of the      NCP, page 49, Tables 2.2 and 3.1,
   local building codes (Southern Standard) to require that proper noise        Appendix J.2.                   
   insulating materials are used in new construction or re-development. This                                    
   measure was recommended in the original NCP and is included as a                                             
   recommendation of the Revised NCP. The April 1987 PBIA Noise Abatement and                                   
   Mitigation Study (NAMS) provided detailed information on how the codes                                       
   should be revised, in section 5 of the document. The information contained                                   
   in that report is still valid and is reprinted in Appendix J.2. DOT/FAA                                      
   document PP-92-5, ``Guidelines for the Sound Insulation of Residences                                        
   Exposed to Aircraft Operations'', will be made available at all local                                        
   government building departments. FAA Action: Approved.                                                       
  14. Easement Acquisition--Undeveloped Land. This measure involves            NCP, page 49, Figure 2.5, and    
   acquisition of avigation easements for undeveloped parcels within and in     Tables 2.2 and 3.1.             
   close proximity to the DNL 65 and DNL 70 noise contours as added                                             
   protection from noncompatible future development. The DOA, through local                                     
   government/airport liaison, will identify all undeveloped parcels. Based                                     
   on the level of success of the other preventive measures, for those                                          
   parcels that may still be zoned to allow incompatible development, the DOA                                   
   will contact the property owners regarding the acquisition of an avigation                                   
   easement from the undeveloped parcel's property rights. FAA Action:                                          
   Approved. The airport operator intends to purchase an easement to prevent                                    
   noncompatible development.                                                                                   
  15. Land Acquisition--Undeveloped Land. In some instances, none of the       NCP, page 49, Tables 2.2 and 3.1.
   recommended preventive land use strategies would prevent an undeveloped                                      
   parcel from being developed incompatibly. In those instances, the DOA may                                    
   consider acquiring the property. The use of the local environmental review                                   
   measure [Measure 11 in this Record of Approval] will provide notification                                    
   to the DOA of such instances. The implementation process will follow the                                     
   same procedures as those for developed land [Measure 8 in this ROA]. FAA                                     
   Action: Approved. This measure is subject to an evaluation at the time of                                    
   implementation that the property is within the DNL 65 dB contour, and to a                                   
   determination that the undeveloped property either has been zoned                                            
   incompatibly or is in imminent danger of being developed incompatibly                                        
   unless it is acquired by the airport operator.                                                               
IMPLEMENTATION, MONITORING, AND REVIEW ACTIONS:                                                                 
  16. Noise and Operations Monitoring System. The DOA will acquire and         NCP, page 50 and Tables 2.2 and  
   install a noise and operations monitoring system to support                  3.1.                            
   implementation, monitoring, and review of other NCP elements. The major                                      
   components of the system will be flight track monitoring, aircraft                                           
   performance monitoring, noise monitoring, user interface & database                                          
   management, meteorological monitoring, audio & tower radio monitoring &                                      
   recording capabilities, and aircraft & flight identification components.                                     
   FAA Action: Approved.                                                                                        
  17. Prepare Annual Ldn Contours. The DOA Noise Office will continue to       NCP, page 50 and Tables 2.2 and  
   develop annual Ldn contours to meet a PBIA commitment to an ongoing annual   3.1.                            
   review of the noise contours. FAA Action: Approved.                                                          
  18. Annual Review of Magnetic Headings. It is recommended that the FAA Air   NCP, page 51 and Tables 2.2 and  
   Traffic Control Tower, with DOA assistance, review the magnetic headings     3.1.                            
   annually and revise the departure instructions to pilots to reflect                                          
   changes in the magnetic heading of the airport's runways. FAA Action:                                        
   Approved.                                                                                                    

[[Page 34576]]
                                                                                                                
  19. NEM/NCP Review. At a minimum, the NCP should call for updating the NEM   NCP, page 51 and Tables 2.2 and  
   at the end of the five year forecast period. If traffic levels either        3.1.                            
   exceed the forecast levels by 15% or drop below the current levels by 15%,                                   
   the DOA should review the NEM. In addition, should the annual contours                                       
   show a significant difference between the annual contours and the approved                                   
   NEM contours, the DOA should consider more in-depth noise analysis and                                       
   potential revision of the NCP and NEM. A significant change is defined as                                    
   an area of non-compatible land use within the 65 dB LDN contour where the                                    
   annual contour exceeds the relevant NEM contour set by 1.5 decibels or                                       
   greater. When PBIA has a 100 percent Stage 3 airline fleet, it would be                                      
   appropriate to review the NEM and NCP. FAA Action: Approved.                                                 
  20. Runway 27R ILS. The DOA is moving ahead with plans to install an         NCP, page 51 and Tables 2.2 and  
   Instrument Landing System (ILS) on Runway 27R. This ILS will greatly         3.1.                            
   improve adherence to the preferred arrival track for that runway. This                                       
   measure was a recommended action of the previous NCP. FAA Action:                                            
   Approved. This measure was approved in the 1985 NCP. It is noted that the                                    
   proposed funding source does not include Federal funding (50 percent State                                   
   and 50 percent DOA).                                                                                         
  21. Program Publicity: Pilot Handout. Figure 2.8 presents a draft            NCP, page 51, Figure 2.8, and    
   recommended pilot handout. The pilot handout would provide information on    Tables 2.2 and 3.1; PBIA Noise  
   various noise abatement policies, including: detailed description of noise   Abatement Bulletin; March 14,   
   abatement flight paths; requested use of FAA AC 91-53 procedures and         1995, letter from PBIA.         
   Teterboro noise abatement departure procedures; preferential runway use                                      
   program; and ground runup procedures. The DOA will distribute the                                            
   bulletin. Copies also would be posted. The ``Teterboro procedure'' is                                        
   similar to National Business Aircraft Association's (NBAA) departure                                         
   procedures for aircraft weighing less than 75,000 pounds. The airport                                        
   operator has stated that: (1) This is an existing NADP that is recommended                                   
   as a first preference for those pilots who are familiar with the procedure                                   
   and (2) the NBAA procedure is recommended for other pilots (page 38 of the                                   
   NCP) and (3) pilots groups have reviewed the procedures (Air Line Pilots                                     
   Association, Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, and NBAA) (March 14,                                    
   1995, letter from PBIA). FAA Action: Approved. The most current version of                                   
   the above-referenced FAA AC is 91-53A and should be appropriately                                            
   referenced. The pilot handout should reflect the voluntary nature of the                                     
   flight procedures, as indicated under the appropriate sections in this ROA                                   
   (Measures 1, 2, and 3).                                                                                      
  22. Revise FAA Tower Order. Changes to the preferential runway use and       NCP, page 54, Figure 2.9, and    
   multiple noise abatement departure flight track assignment elements in the   Tables 2.2 and 3.1.             
   PBIA Noise Compatibility Program will necessitate changes to FAA Order                                       
   8400.9. FAA Action: Approved. These procedures have been approved as

   under 49 U.S.C. 40103 would implement these measures, which would also be                                    
   subject to applicable environmental requirements prior to implementation.                                    
  23. Program Publicity: National Publications. There are a number of          NCP, page 54 and Tables 2.2 and  
   nationally recognized publications that provide pilots with information on   3.1.                            
   airport operating procedures. The DOA will request that these publications                                   
   include appropriate summaries of the PBIA noise abatement procedures. FAA                                    
   Action: Approved.                                                                                            
  24. Public Participation: Ongoing Citizens Meetings. The DOA will continue   NCP, page 54 and Tables 2.2 and  
   to meet on a routine basis with the CCAN or a similar group to continue      3.1.                            
   promotion of public participation and to review ongoing noise abatement                                      
   measures and the implementation of the recommendations of this study. FAA                                    
   Action: Approved.

   interested parties of the status of PBIA's noise abatement program. FAA                                      
   Action: Approved.
