Sec.  2651.6  Airport and air navigation facilities.



    (a) Every airport and air navigation facility owned and operated by 

the United States which the Secretary determines is actually used in 

connection with the administration of a Federal program will be deemed a 

Federal installation under the provisions of section 3(e) of the Act,

installations. Such Federal installations are not public lands as 

defined in the act and are therefore not lands available for selection 

under the provisions of these regulations.

    (b) The surface of all other lands of existing airport sites, airway 

beacons, or other navigation aids, together with such additional acreage 

or easements as are necessary to provide related services and to insure 

safe approaches to airport runways, shall be conveyed by the village 

corporation to the State of Alaska, and the Secretary will include in 

the conveyance to any village corporation any and all covenants which he 

deems necessary to insure the fulfillment of this obligation.
