Public Notice for Waiver of Aeronautical Land-Use Assurance, 
Rhinelander-Oneida County Airport, Rhinelander, WI

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

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

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is giving notice

[[Page 61213]]

that a portion of the airport property containing 52.95 acres located 
in the south-southwest corner of the airport is not needed for 
aeronautical use as currently identified on the Airport Layout Plan.
    The majority of the acreage comprising this parcel was originally 
acquired through Grant No. FAAP-9-47-027-C603 in 1965 to protect the 
approach to Runway 5/23. The remainder of the acreage within this 
parcel was acquired by the airport sponsor and State of Wisconsin at 
that same time. The parcel is presently wooded and undeveloped. Runway 
5/23 was officially and permanently closed on April 8, 1998. The land 
comprising this parcel is, therefore, no longer needed for aeronautical 
purposes. The airport wishes to transfer ownership of the land to 
facilitate future industrial development in the vicinity of the 
airport. Income from the sale will be used to improve the airport. 
There are no impacts to the airport by allowing the airport to dispose 
of the property.
    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 November 15, 2000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Daniel J. Millenacker, Program 
Manager, Federal Aviation Administration, Airports District Office, 
6020 28th Avenue South, Room 102, Minneapolis, MN 55450-2706. Telephone 
Number (612) 713-4359/FAX Number (612) 713-4364. Documents reflecting 
this FAA action may be reviewed at this same location or at the 
Rhinelander-Oneida County Airport, Rhinelander, WI.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice announces that the FAA intends 
to authorize the disposal of the subject airport property at 
Rhinelander-Oneida County Airport, Rhinelander, WI. Approval does not 
constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially assist in the 
disposal of the subject airport property nor a determination that all 
measures covered by the program are eligible for Airport Improvement 
Program 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.

    Issued in Minneapolis, MN, on September 26, 2000.
Robert Huber,
Acting Manager, Minneapolis Airports District Office, FAA, Great Lakes 
Region.
