SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA invites public comment on the 
request to release approximately 0.91 acres of airport 
property at Waterloo Regional Airport (ALO) under the provisions of 49 
U.S.C. 47107(h)(2). On March 29, 2016, the Director of Aviation at 
Waterloo Regional Airport requested from the FAA that approximately 
0.91 acres of property be released for sale to Standard 
Forwarding for an addition to their trucking business consistent with 
the zoning ordinances of the City. On June 24, 2016, the FAA determined 
that the request to release property at Waterloo Regional Airport (ALO) 
submitted by the Sponsor meets the procedural requirements of the 
Federal Aviation Administration and the release of the property does 
not and will not impact future aviation needs at the airport. The FAA 
may approve the request, in whole or in part, no sooner than thirty 
days after the publication of this notice.
    The following is a brief overview of the request:
    The Waterloo Regional Airport (ALO) is proposing the release of 
airport property totaling 0.91 acres, more or less. This land is to be 
used for an addition to the Standard Forwarding Company. The release of 
land is necessary to comply with Federal Aviation Administration Grant 
Assurances that do not allow federally acquired airport property to be 
used for non-aviation purposes. The sale of the subject property will 
result in the land at Waterloo Regional Airport (ALO) being changed 
from aeronautical to non-aeronautical use and release the lands from 
the conditions of the Airport Improvement Program Grant Agreement Grant 
Assurances. In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 47107(c)(2)(B)(i) and (iii), 
the airport will receive fair market value for the property, which will 
be subsequently reinvested in another eligible airport improvement 
project for general aviation facilities at Waterloo Regional Airport.
    Any person may inspect, by appointment, the request in person at 
the FAA office listed above under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. In 
addition, any person may, upon appointment and request, inspect the 
application, notice and other documents determined by the FAA to be 
related to the application in person at Waterloo Regional Airport.

    Issued in Kansas City, MO on June 24, 2016.

Manager, Airports Division.
