AGENCY: Federal Transit Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of intent to transfer Federally assisted land or 
facility.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Section 5334(h) of the Federal Transit Laws, as codified, 49 
U.S.C. 5301, et seq., permits the Administrator of the Federal Transit 
Administration (the ``FTA'') to authorize a recipient of FTA funds to 
transfer land or a facility to a public body for any public purpose 
with no further obligation to the Federal Government if, among other 
things, no Federal agency is interested in acquiring the asset for 
Federal use. Accordingly, FTA is issuing this Notice to advise Federal 
Agencies that the Wisconsin Department of Transportation intends to 
transfer a building to the City of Rice Lake (the ``City''). This 
transfer also includes a 31% interest in the real property. The 
building is located at 326 South Main Street, Rice Lake, Wisconsin 
(hereinafter the ``Building'').

DATES:  Effective Date: Any Federal agency interested in acquiring the 
Facility must notify the FTA Region V Office of its interest by April 
28, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Interested parties should notify the Regional Office by 
writing to Marisol R. Sim[oacute]n, Regional Administrator, Federal 
Transit Administration, 200 West Adams, Suite 320, Chicago, IL 60606.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kathryn Loster, Regional Counsel, at 
312-353-3869.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    49 U.S.C. 5334(h) provides guidance on the transfer of assets no 
longer needed. Specifically, if a recipient of FTA assistance decides 
an asset acquired at least in part with federal assistance is no longer 
needed for the purpose for which it was acquired, the Secretary of 
Transportation may authorize the recipient to transfer the asset to a 
local governmental authority to be used for a public purpose with no 
further obligation to the Government. 49 U.S.C. 5334(h)(l).

Determinations

    The Secretary may authorize a transfer for a public purpose other 
than public transportation only if the Secretary decides:
    (A) The asset will remain in public use for at least 5 years after 
the date the asset is transferred;
    (B) There is no purpose eligible for assistance under this chapter 
for which the asset should be used;
    (C) The overall benefit of allowing the transfer is greater than 
the interest of the Government in liquidation and return of the 
financial interest of the Government in the asset, after considering 
fair market value and other factors; and
    (D) Through an appropriate screening or survey process, that there 
is no interest in acquiring the asset for Government use if the asset 
is a facility or land.

Federal Interest in Acquiring Land or Facility

    This document implements the requirements of 49 U.S.C. 
5334(h)(l)(D). Accordingly, FTA hereby provides notice of the 
availability of the Facility further described below. Any Federal 
agency interested in acquiring the affected facility should promptly 
notify the FTA.
    If no Federal agency is interested in acquiring the existing 
Facility, FTA will make certain that the other requirements specified 
in 49 U.S.C. 5334(h)(1)(A) through (C) are met before permitting the 
asset to be transferred.
    The Building shares a 1.433-acre parcel zoned for general 
commercial use. It provides 159 feet of frontage along South Main 
Street, and has a depth of 459 feet along the south elevation. The site 
is bound on the south and west by Marketplace Foods, on the east by 
South Main Street, and on the north by an abandoned railroad line with 
a 9.5-foot wide right-of-way. Land along Main Street in close proximity 
to the Building is a mixture of single-tenant and multi-tenant 
commercial properties, primarily in the retail and food service 
sectors. The legal description is as follows: Outlots 149-1 and 149-6 
being part of Outlot 149 as shown in Certified Survey Map Volume 6, 
Page 162 and part of railroad right-of-way as described in Deeds Volume 
414, Page 736 of Outlots in the City of Rice Lake, Barron County, 
Wisconsin.
    The Building has a total floor space of 27,130 square feet. It 
houses three spaces: (1) 4,839 Square feet of office space, including a 
meeting room break room, bathrooms and closets; (2) 4,808 square feet 
of shop space; and (3) 2,683 square feet of basement space, including 
storage and a bathroom. The Building is sited with minimal setback from

Facility, FTA will make certain that the other requirements

specified in 49 U.S.C. Section 5334(h)(1)(A) through (C) are met before 
permitting the asset to be transferred.
