DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Federal Aviation Administration
Announcement of Receipt of Notice of Proposed Restriction on
Stage 2 Operations at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport,
Minneapolis, MN
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has been notified by
the Metropolitan Airports Commission that it proposes ``an ordinance to
promote and conserve the public safety, health, peace, convenience and
welfare; to regulate aircraft noise at Minneapolis-St. Paul
International Airport by prohibiting operation of aircraft exceeding
the noise limits established under federal law for Stage 3 aircraft as
of January 1, 2000, and prescribing the penalty for violation
thereof.''
The Metropolitan Airports Commission has provided notice of the
proposed restriction and an opportunity to comment to the public
pursuant to the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990 and Federal
Aviation Regulations, part 161. Notice of the ordinance and
availability of the analysis was locally published by the Metropolitan
Airports Commission on May 4 and 5, 1999.
EFFECTIVE DATE: This Federal notice is given in accordance with Federal
Aviation Regulations, Part 161, Sec. 161.203(e). Because of the late
publication of this announcement, the FAA has requested, and the
Metropolitan Airports Commission has agreed, to extend the comment
period. The extended comment period ends at 5 pm. on June 9, 1999.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For further information about this
proposal and for copies of the complete text of the proposed
restriction, and copies of the supporting analysis, contact Rebecca
