agreement for the property on which the civilian airport is located.
Application Procedures
The Dates section of 60 FR 54560, October 24, 1995, is revised to
provide that applications must be submitted to the airports district

Information To Be Contained in Application, New Airports
Section (4) of the qualifications for new airports (60 FR 54561,
October 24, 1995) is modified as follows: In the case of a former
military airport, documentation that the local or State airport sponsor
holds satisfactory title, or a long term lease for 20 years or more, to
the property on which the civilian airport is being located. In the
case of a current military airport, documentation that the airport
sponsor has an existing joint-use agreement with the military
department having jurisdiction over the airport. (The title transfer,
lease, or joint use agreement must be effective on or before May 31,
1996. This is necessary so the airport sponsor qualifies as an eligible
sponsor to receive grants of Federal financial assistance under the
Airport Improvement Program.)

Director, Office of Airport Planning and Programming.
