Public Notice for Waiver of Aeronautical Land-Use Assurance; North Vernon Municipal Airport; North Vernon, IN

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of intent of waiver with respect to land.

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is considering a proposal to change a portion of the airport from aeronautical use to non-aeronautical use and to authorize the lease of the airport property. The area is a 224-acre parcel of vacant land located west of the airport. The land is presently subject to a farm lease. The land was acquired via quitclaim deed dated February 13, 1948, recorded February 27, 1948, in Jennings County, Deed Record No. 78, Page No. 634-636. There are no impacts to the airport by allowing the airport to lease the property. The land is not needed for aeronautical use, and will be sub-let to various future developers as an industrial airpark. Approval does not constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially assist in the disposal of the subject airport property nor a determination of eligibility for grant-in-aid funding from the FAA. The disposition of the proceeds from the lease of the airport property will be in accordance with FAA's Policy and Procedures Concerning the Use of Airport Revenue, published in the Federal Register on February 16, 1999.

In accordance with Section 47107(h) of Title 49, United States Code, this notice is required to be published in the Federal Register 30 days before modifying the land-use assurance that requires the property to be used for an aeronautical purpose.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before August 16, 2007.
