Notice of Receipt and Request for Review of Noise Compatibility
Program
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.
SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces that it is
reviewing a proposed noise compatibility program that was submitted for
Teterboro Airport by The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
This program was submitted subsequent to a determination by FAA that
associated noise exposure maps submitted for Teterboro Airport were in
compliance with applicable requirements, effective June 15, 2017. The
proposed noise compatibility program will be approved or disapproved on
or before January 11, 2023. This notice also announces the availability
of this noise compatibility program for public review and comment.
DATES: The effective date of start of FAA's review of the noise
compatibility program is July 15, 2022. The public comment period ends
September 13, 2022.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Andrew Brooks, Regional Environmental
Program Manager, Airports Division, Federal Aviation Administration, 1
Aviation Plaza, Room 516, Jamaica, NY 11434. Phone Number: 718-553-
2511. Comments on the proposed noise compatibility program should also
be submitted to the above office.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA is
reviewing a proposed noise compatibility program (NCP) for Teterboro
Airport which will be approved or disapproved on or before January 11,
2023. This notice also announces the availability of this program for
public review and comment.
An airport operator who has submitted noise exposure maps (NEM)
that are found by FAA to be in compliance with the requirements of
title 49, United States Code (U.S.C.) (Aviation Safety and Noise
Abatement Act, hereinafter referred to as ``the Act'') and Title 14,
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 150 (14 CFR 150), promulgated
pursuant to the Act, may submit a noise compatibility program for FAA
approval which sets forth the measures the operator has taken or
proposes to reduce existing non-compatible uses and prevent the
introduction of additional non-compatible uses. The FAA previously
determined that the NEMs for Teterboro Airport were in compliance with
applicable requirements under 14 CFR 150, effective June 15, 2017
(Noise Exposure Map Notice for Teterboro Airport, Teterboro, New
Jersey, volume 82, Federal Register, pages 28545-6, June 22, 2017).
The FAA has formally received the NCP for Teterboro Airport on July
7, 2022. The airport operator has requested that the FAA review this
material and that the noise mitigation measures, to be implemented
jointly by the airport and surrounding communities, be approved as a
NCP under section 47504 of the Act. Preliminary review of the submitted
material indicates that it conforms to the requirements for the
submittal of NCPs, but that further review will be necessary prior to
approval or disapproval of the program for Teterboro Airport. The
formal review period, limited by law to a maximum of 180 days, was
initiated on July 15, 2022 and will be completed on or before January
11, 2023.
The FAA's detailed evaluation will be conducted under the
provisions of 14 CFR 150.33. The primary considerations in the
evaluation process are whether the proposed measures may reduce the
level of aviation safety, create an undue burden on interstate or
foreign commerce, or be reasonably consistent with obtaining the goal
of reducing existing non-compatible land uses and preventing the
introduction of additional non-compatible land uses.

Interested persons are invited to comment on the proposed program
with specific reference to these factors. All comments, other than
those properly addressed to local land use authorities, will be
considered by the FAA to the extent practicable. Copies of the proposed
NCP for Teterboro Airport are available for examination online at
<a href="http://panynjpart150.com/TEB_FNCP.asp">http://panynjpart150.com/TEB_FNCP.asp</a>.
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has also made a hard
copy of the document available for review at the Office of the General
Manager for Teterboro Airport, located at 90 Moonachie Avenue,
Teterboro, New Jersey. Interested parties can contact the office at
(201) 807-4020 to arrange for a review.
Questions regarding this notice may be directed to the individual
named above under the heading, FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
Issued in Jamaica, NY, on July 15, 2022.
David A. Fish,
Director, Airports Division, Eastern Region.
