Abstract

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) approval to renew an information collection. The collection involves information on voluntary airport noise compatibility programs. The information to be collected is necessary because noise compatibility program measures are eligible for Federal grants in- aid if they are provided to FAA for review and approval in advance. The respondents are airport sponsors that voluntarily submit noise exposure maps and noise compatibility programs to the FAA for review and approval.

    Title: Airport Noise Compatibility Planning.
    Form Numbers: There are no FAA forms associated with this 
collection.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an Information Collection.
    Background: The voluntarily submitted information from the 
collection process pursuant to Tile 14 Code of Federal Regulations 
(CFR) part 150, (e.g., airport noise exposure maps and airport noise 
compatibility programs, or their revisions) is used by the FAA to 
conduct reviews of the submissions to determine if an airport sponsor's 
noise compatibility program is eligible for Federal grant funds. If 
airport sponsors did not voluntarily submit noise exposure maps and 
noise compatibility programs for FAA review and approval, the airport 
sponsor would not be eligible for the set aside of discretionary grant 
funds. The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day review period 
soliciting comments on this information collection of information was 
published in the Federal Register on April 9, 2021 (86 FR 18586) and no 
public comments were received.
