Nope... no special notes. Well... mostly not. The chart does list magnetic heading for the runway. The runway numbers don't exactly line up with magnetic heading anyway and are mainly used for clerical purposes, if you can call it that. I've seen airports where the headings are off by 15+ degrees from magnetic which really screw you up when double checking your instruments after lining up for an instrument departure.
