3-3(B)   APPLICABILITY
The standards in this Section 14-16-3-3 apply to the Albuquerque International Sunport and Double Eagle II Airport and other properties in all zone districts within the following sub-areas of the APO zone, which are mapped and briefly described below. These sub-areas correspond to FAA "zones" and/or "surfaces" and are detailed separately by the FAA.
3-3(B)(1)   Air Space Protection Sub-area
This sub-area underlies a Horizontal Surface established at a height of 150 feet above the highest point of the usable landing area at each airport, resulting in a Horizontal Surface at 5,504.9 feet in elevation for the Albuquerque International Sunport and at 6,028.0 feet in elevation for the Double Eagle II Airport.
3-3(B)(1)(a)   Albuquerque International Sunport
3-3(B)(1)(b)   Double Eagle II Airport
3-3(B)(2)   Runway Protection Sub-area
This sub-area includes the runways, adjacent Approach Surfaces, and trapezoidal flares at the end of each runway.
3-3(B)(2)(a)   Albuquerque International Sunport
3-3(B)(2)(b)   Double Eagle II Airport
3-3(B)(3)   Noise Contour Sub-area
This irregularly shaped sub-area reflects the intermittent noise levels that are expected in each airport area, based on averaged ambient conditions and existing and projected aircraft operations (landings and takeoffs). The effect of noise generated by any other specific land use is not reflected. The sub-area is bounded by the 65 Day-night Noise Level (DNL) contour and includes the 75 DNL contour, as calculated by the FAA Integrated Noise Model.
