14 CFR Part 150 sets out the federal rules for airport noise compatibility planning, establishing how airports must measure noise, map affected areas, and develop programs to reduce conflicts between aircraft noise and nearby land uses. It defines key terms such as day-night average sound level (DNL), compatible and noncompatible land use, and noise exposure maps, and it outlines the process by which the FAA reviews and approves or disapproves airport noise compatibility programs. Importantly, FAA approval of such a program does not itself commit federal funding or authorize specific actions without further environmental review. -
