Public Notice for a Change in Aeronautical Use of Airport 
Property at Sullivan County International Airport, Monticello, NY

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Request for public comment.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is requesting public comment on Lancaster Airport, 
Inc.'s (airport owner) notice of the proposed release of approximately 
5 acres of airport property located on the west side of County Road 183 
opposite the airport entrance road, to allow for the development of a 
Bus Garage facility, considered non-aviation development.
    This parcel was part of a larger tract, which was purchased by the 
County for aeronautical use with 50% federal participation. Documents 
reflecting the sponsor's request are available, by appointment only, 
for inspection at the Airport manager's office and the FAA Airports 
District Office.
    FAA's action is to release the land from a deed provision requiring 
aeronautical use of the property. It has been determined that it has no 
aeronautical use for the parcel now or in the foreseeable future, 
according to the Sullivan County International Airport Layout Plan.
    Since the county remains the owner of the property, no revenue is 
involved. The airport will benefit from a bus stop at the airport.
    Any comments the agency receives will be considered as a part of 
the discussion.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before July 23, 2004.

ADDRESSES:  Comments on this application may be mailed or delivered to 
the FAA at the following address: Philip Brito, Manager, FAA New York 
Airports District Office, 600 Old Country Road, Suite 446, Garden City, 
New York 11530.
    In addition, a copy of any comments submitted to the FAA must be 
mailed or delivered to Mr. Robert LaTratta, President, Sullivan County 
International Airport, Inc. at the following address: Mr. Robert L. 
Tratta, Acting Airport Manager, Sullivan County International Airport, 
100 North Street, P.B. Box 5012, Monticello, New York 12701-5192.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Philip Brito, Manager, New York 
Airports District Office, 600 Old Country Road, Suite 446, Garden City, 
New York 11530; telephone (516) 227-3803; FAX (516) 227-3813; e-mail 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 125 of the Wendell H. Ford Aviation 
Investment and Reform Act for the 21st Century (AIR21) requires the FAA 
to provide an opportunity for public notice and comment before the 
Secretary may waive a sponsor's Federal obligation to use certain 
airport land for aeronautical use.

    Issued in Garden City, New York, on June 14, 2004.
Philip Brito,
Manager, New York Airports District Office, Eastern Region.
