    in the national air transportation system;
        (3) the differences in the nature of operations at airports and 
    the areas immediately surrounding the airports;
        (4) international standards and agreements on aircraft noise; 
    and
        (5) other factors the Secretary considers necessary.

    In this section, before clause (1), the words ``conduct a study and 
decide on'' are substituted for ``determine by a study'' for clarity. 
The words ``with a maximum weight of not more than'' are substituted for 
``weighing less than'' for consistency with sections 47528 and 47529 of 
the revised title.
