Public Notice For Waiver Of Aeronautical Land-use Assurance Fort 
Wayne International Airport, Fort Wayne, IN

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of intent of waiver with respect to land.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is considering a 
proposal to change portions of airport land from aeronautical use to 
non-aeronautical use and to authorize the sale of the airport property. 
The proposal consists of a 4.0-acre portion of Parcel 6-4 and a 2.6758-
acre portion of Parcel 5-19. Presently the land is vacant and used as 
open land for control of FAR Part 77 surfaces and compatible land use 
and is not needed for aeronautical use, as shown on the Airport Layout 
Plan. Parcel 6-4 (80.14 acres) was acquired in 1993 without Federal 
participation. Parcel 5-19 (22.00 acres) was obtained from the United 
States of America by Warranty Deed dated June 29, 1949. The release of 
the 2.6758-acre portion of Parcel 5-19 will require the coordination 
and approval of the United States of America (Department of Defense). 
It is the intent of the Fort Wayne--Allen County Airport Authority 
(FWACAA) to sell the 4.0-acre portion of Parcel 6-4 and the 2.6758-acre 
portion of Parcel 5-19. There are no impacts to the airport by allowing 
the FWACAA to dispose of the property. This notice announces that the 
FAA intends to authorize the disposal of the subject airport property 
at Fort Wayne International Airport, Fort Wayne, IN. Approval does not 
constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially assist in disposal of 
the subject airport property nor a determination that all measures 
covered by the program are eligible 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.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before October 4, 2004.
