Sec. 122.11  Designation as international airport.


    (a) Procedure. International airports, as defined in Sec. 122.1(e), 
will be designated after due investigation to establish that sufficient 
need exists in any port to justify such designation and to determine the 
airport best suited for such purpose. In each case, a specific airport 
will be chosen. International airports will be publicly owned, unless 
circumstances require otherwise
    (b) Withdrawal of designation. The designation as an international 
airport may be withdrawn for any of the following reasons:
    (1) The amount of business clearing through the airport does not 
justify maintenance of inspection equipment and personnel;
    (2) Proper facilities are not provided or maintained by the airport;
    (3) The rules and regulations of the Federal Government are not 
followed; or
    (4) Some other location would be more useful.
    (c) Providing office space to the Federal Government. Each 
international airport shall provide, without cost to the Federal 
Government, proper office and other space for the sole use of Federal 
officials working at the airport. A suitable paved loading area shall be 
supplied by each airport at a place convenient to the office space. The 
loading area shall be kept for the use of aircraft entering or clearing 
through the airport.
