Procedures for Processing Petitions for Interim Compliance Waivers

This document presents a review of the procedures and information necessary for an operator of a Stage 2 noise level airplane subject to the phaseout regulations, resulting from the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990, to submit a request for a compliance waiver. As a result of its experience preceding the first interim Stage 2 phaseout compliance date, December 31, 1994, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) reminds all affected operators of the procedures for applying for interim compliance waivers. This document also serves as a reminder to operators that as of March 14, 1995, new compliance arrangements that rely on sharing Stage 3 airplanes for noise compliance purposes by placing them on the operators specifications of more than one operator are prohibited, and that existing share arrangements may not be used for compliance with the December 31, 1996, requirements.
