SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 47107(h), 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.

The following is a brief overview of the request:

The Police Jury of Beauregard Parish requests 3,501.65 acres of Parcel 2 (as shown on their Exhibit A), be released for non-aeronautical use. The land will be leased out to various developments. Historic parcel 2 was acquired on January 22, 1949 under the Surplus Property Act of 1944. The proposed area of release is located north of Graybow Road, west of LA Highway 3099, east of Seth Cole Road, and south of Blankenship Road with exclusion of Parcel 1 which is contained in the airport's perimeter fence. The Police Jury of Bearegard Parish will lease this property to grow airport revenues as well as the economy. The purpose of this request is to permanently change the designation of the property given there is no potential for future aviation use, as demonstrated by the Airport Layout Plan. Subsequent to the implementation of the proposed redesignation, rents received by the airport from this property must be used in accordance with FAA's Policy and Procedures Concerning the Use of Airport Revenue, published in the Federal Register on February 16, 1999.

Any person may inspect the request by appointment at the FAA office address listed above. Interested persons are invited to comment. All comments will be considered by the FAA to extent practicable.

Issued in Fort Worth, Texas, on September 2023.

Ignacio Flores,

Director, Office of Airports Southwest Region.
