§ 161.105 Requirements for new en-

trants. 

(a) Within 45 days of the publication 

of the notice of a proposed restriction 
by the airport operator under 
§ 161.103(b) of this part, any person in-

tending to provide new air service to 
the airport within 180 days of the pro-
posed date of implementation of the re-
striction (as evidenced by submission 
of a plan of operations to the airport 
operator) must notify the airport oper-
ator if it would be affected by the re-
striction contained in the proposed 
agreement, and either that it— 

(1) Agrees to the restriction; or 
(2) Objects to the restriction. 
(b) Failure of any person described in 

§ 161.105(a) of this part to notify the air-
port operator that it objects to the pro-
posed restriction will constitute waiver 
of the right to claim that it did not 
consent to the agreement and render 
that person ineligible to use lack of 
signature as ground to apply for sanc-
tions under subpart F of this part for 
two years following the effective date 
of the restriction. The signature of 
such a person need not be obtained by 
the airport operator in order to comply 
with § 161.107(a) of this part. 

(c) All other new entrants are also in-

eligible to use lack of signature as 
ground to apply for sanctions under 
subpart F of this part for two years. 

§ 161.107 Implementation of the re-

striction. 

(a) To be eligible to implement a 

Stage 3 noise or access restriction 
under this subpart, an airport operator 
shall have the restriction contained in 
an agreement as defined in § 161.101(b) 
of this part. 

(b) An airport operator may not im-

plement a restriction pursuant to an 
agreement until the notice and com-
ment requirements of § 161.103 of this 
part have been met. 

(c) Each airport operator must notify 

the Federal Aviation Administration of 
the implementation of a restriction 
pursuant to an agreement and must in-
clude in the notice evidence of compli-
ance with § 161.103 and a copy of the 
signed agreement. 

§ 161.109 Notice of termination of re-

striction pursuant to an agreement. 

An airport operator must notify the 

FAA within 10 days of the date of ter-
mination of a restriction pursuant to 
an agreement under this subpart.
