The EPB is an urban planning document setting out the conditions of land use exposed to aircraft noise nuisances. The aim of the EPB is to prohibit or limit constructions in order not to increase the populations subject to nuisances.
It anticipates the development of aviation activity, the expansion of infrastructure and the evolution of air traffic procedures by 15/20 years. It includes a presentation report and a 1/25 000 scale map showing areas exposed to noise.
The significance of the exhibition is indicated by the letters A, B, C, or D.
— Zone A: Very high noise exposure
— Zone B: Exposure to strong noise
— Zone C: Exposure to moderate noise
— Area D: Low noise exposure (only for some aerodromes)
The decision to establish an EFP shall be taken by the Prefect. The approved EFP is then annexed to the local planning plan. The EPB may be revised at the request of the Prefect or on a proposal from the ECA.
The aerodromes to be equipped with an EFP shall be those classified in categories A, B and C. These are also aerodromes listed on a list drawn up by orders of the Ministers responsible for defence, urban planning, civil aviation and the environment. Of the 600 aerodromes in France, 190 of them have a BDP.

The geographical reference used the IGN SCAN25®.
It is the only reference that can be used to allow the use and validity of the EPB as a planning document enforceable against third parties and approved by prefectural decree.
There are representational recommendations (see Standrd COVADIS)

— the data are also intended to be published on the intranet and Internet.The approved paper scale of the PEB being 1/25000, for use Cartélie, a thickness of the noise curves (zone border) must be increased to 25 metres to create the same uncertainty as on the paper plane.
