07-803. Public Notice for Waiver of Aeronautical Land-Use Assurance Rickenbacker International Airport, Columbus, OH

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 potion of the airport from aeronautical use to non-aeronautical use and to authorize the release of 68.277 acres of vacant airport property for the proposed development bulk warehouse/distribution facilities as a component of the Rickenbacker Global Logistics Park. The land was acquired by the Rickenbacker Port authority through two Quitclaim Deeds dated March 30, 1984 from the Administrator of General Services for the United States of America and May 11, 1999 from the United States of America, acting by and through the Secretary of the Air Force. There are no impacts to the airport by allowing the airport to dispose of the property. 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 CRAA will receive $1,468,000 for the parcel.

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.
