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

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.
