Summary
Precludes the Expanded East Coast Plan issued by the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) from becoming effective until the Administrator issues a detailed environmental impact statement and revises the Plan to resolve any problems identified in such statement. Requires the Administrator to issue a detailed environmental impact statement regarding proposed changes to air routes at or below an altitude of 19,000 feet. Amends the Clean Air Act to require the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to review and publish in the Federal Register how commercial air routes proposed by the FAA Administrator comply with certain noise control criteria. Amends the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 to prohibit the FAA Administrator from designating a commercial air route unless it has been approved by the EPA Administrator. Prohibits the FAA Administrator from excluding air commerce operations from certain environmental requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 on the basis of altitude. Requires the FAA Administrator to report to the Congress the results of a commercial aircraft noise level study.
