Application Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To
Intervene, and Competing Applications

March 4, 2010.
    On January 4, 2010, the Fairlawn Hydroelectric Company, LLC filed
an application, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act,
proposing to study the feasibility of the Jennings Randolph Project, to
be located the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Jennings Randolph Dam, on
the North Branch Potomac River, Garrett County, Maryland, and Mineral
County, West Virginia.
    The proposed project would utilize the existing U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers' Jennings Randolph Dam and would consist of: (1) A proposed
intake structure to be built on the upstream face of the dam; (2) a
720-foot-long penstock through the dam; (3) a proposed powerhouse
containing 2 generating units with a total generating capacity of 14.0
MW; (4) a proposed 2/3-mile-long, 138 kV transmission line; (5) a
tailrace, and (6) appurtenant facilities. The project would have an
estimated average annual generation of 52.0 gigawatts-hours.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Aviation Administration

Notice of Noise Exposure Map; Bradley International Airport,
Windsor Locks, Connecticut

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces its
determination that the noise exposure maps for Bradley International
Airport, Windsor Locks, Connecticut, as submitted by the Connecticut
Airport Authority 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, are in compliance with applicable requirements.

DATES: Effective Date: The effective date of the FAA's determination on
the noise exposure maps is December 31, 2013.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the noise exposure maps and of the FAA's
evaluation of the maps are available for examination at the following
locations:

Connecticut Airport Authority, Bradley International Airport, Windsor
Locks, Connecticut 06096.
Federal Aviation Administration, New England Region, Airports Division,
12 New England Executive Park, Burlington, Massachusetts 01803.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Richard Doucette, Federal Aviation
Administration, New England Region, Airports Division, 12 New England
Executive Park, Burlington, Massachusetts 01803.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA finds
that the noise exposure maps submitted for Bradley International
Airport are in compliance with applicable requirements of Part 150,
effective December 31, 2013.
    Under Section 103 of Title I of the Aviation Safety and Noise
Abatement Act of 1979 (hereinafter referred to as ``the Act'') (49
U.S.C. 47503), an airport operator may submit to the FAA noise exposure
maps that meet applicable regulations and that depict non-compatible
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 such noise exposure maps that
are found by FAA to be in compliance with the requirements of Part 150
of FAA's regulations (14 CFR Part 150), promulgated pursuant to Title I
of the Act, may submit a noise compatibility program for FAA approval
that sets forth the measures the operator has taken, or proposes, for
the introduction of additional non-compatible uses.
    The FAA has completed its review of the noise exposure map and
related descriptions submitted by the Connecticut Airport Authority.
The specific maps under consideration were Exhibit NEM-1, Existing
(2013) Noise Exposure Map and Exhibit NEM-2, Future (2018) Noise
Exposure Map in the submission. The FAA has determined that these maps
for Bradley International Airport are in compliance with applicable
requirements. This determination is effective on December 31, 2013.
    FAA's determination on an airport operator's noise exposure maps is
limited to a finding that the maps were developed in accordance with
the procedures contained in Appendix A of 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 a noise exposure map
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 (49 U.S.C. 47506). 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 a
noise exposure map. Therefore, the responsibility for the detailed
overlaying of noise exposure contours onto the map depicting properties
on the surface rests exclusively with the airport operator that
submitted the map 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
Section 150.21 of Part 150, that the statutorily required consultation
has been accomplished.

    Authority: 49 U.S.C. 47501-47510; 14 CFR Part 150.

    Issued in Burlington, Massachusetts, January 9, 2014.
Bryon H. Rakoff,
Acting Manager, New England Region Airports Division.
