Narrative:

Briefed departure with first officer. First officer made correction to my briefing. The correction was that a 330 degree heading after takeoff was not required and that the hornet one departure showed the course line directly to jotta intersection. We began flying directly to jotta intersection after takeoff and was queried by ATC. Upon the notification, I reread the SID and realized the mistake. ATC informed me that we were in close proximity to violating the boundaries of a noise abatement area. We were then given a vector to turn left to a heading of 300 degrees, finally cleared direct naley. I think if the dotted line direct to jotta was not published, then we would have not misinterpreted the SID. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: reporter advised that the problem was that he expected his first officer to have the SID procedure down prior to departure. The first officer's 'call to navigation' assumed that they would be heading north instead of the left turn. Clt was quick to alert the crew and advise them of the airport noise abatement requirements off runway departure end.

Title: CARJ FLC MISINTERPRET CLT SID AND ARE CORRECTED BY DEP CTL.

Narrative: BRIEFED DEP WITH FO. FO MADE CORRECTION TO MY BRIEFING. THE CORRECTION WAS THAT A 330 DEG HEADING AFTER TKOF WAS NOT REQUIRED AND THAT THE HORNET ONE DEP SHOWED THE COURSE LINE DIRECTLY TO JOTTA INTXN. WE BEGAN FLYING DIRECTLY TO JOTTA INTXN AFTER TKOF AND WAS QUERIED BY ATC. UPON THE NOTIFICATION, I REREAD THE SID AND REALIZED THE MISTAKE. ATC INFORMED ME THAT WE WERE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO VIOLATING THE BOUNDARIES OF A NOISE ABATEMENT AREA. WE WERE THEN GIVEN A VECTOR TO TURN L TO A HEADING OF 300 DEGS, FINALLY CLRED DIRECT NALEY. I THINK IF THE DOTTED LINE DIRECT TO JOTTA WAS NOT PUBLISHED, THEN WE WOULD HAVE NOT MISINTERPRETED THE SID. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: RPTR ADVISED THAT THE PROB WAS THAT HE EXPECTED HIS FO TO HAVE THE SID PROC DOWN PRIOR TO DEP. THE FO'S 'CALL TO NAV' ASSUMED THAT THEY WOULD BE HDG N INSTEAD OF THE LEFT TURN. CLT WAS QUICK TO ALERT THE CREW AND ADVISE THEM OF THE ARPT NOISE ABATEMENT REQUIREMENTS OFF RWY DEP END.
