Federal Register Volume 81, Issue 55 (March 22, 2016)

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is considering a proposal to authorize the release of 2.35 acres of the airport property at the Mankato Regional Airport, Mankato MN. The City is proposing a land swap to exchange this 2.35 acre parcel for another parcel of 2.0 acres. The acreage being released is not needed for aeronautical use as currently identified on the Airport Layout Plan. The acreage comprising this parcel was originally acquired in 1982 and funded with an Airport Improvement Program (AIP) grant (3-27-0055-05-87). In exchange for the 2.35 acres the airport will receive a new parcel of land in the Runway Protection Zone (RPZ) to Runway 33. The FAA approved a Categorical Exclusion for environmental requirements on May 30, 2014. 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 proceeds from the disposal 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.
