Public Notice for Waiver of Aeronautical Land-Use Assurance 
Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport Kalamazoo, MI

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

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

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is considering a 
proposal to change a portion of the airport from aeronautical use to 
non-aeronautical use and to authorize the sale of the airport property. 
The proposal consists of 2 parcels of land totaling approximately 6.13 
acres. Current use and present condition is as an overflow parking area 
for car rental vehicles on the southern portion of subject parcels. The 
northern portion of subject parcels is vacant, unimproved land. The 
land was not acquired with

federal funds. There are no impacts to the airport by allowing the 
airport to dispose of the property. The proposal concerns selling the 
land to a corporation that will construct a commercial office building 
on the site. Approval does not constitute a commitment by the FAA to 
financially assist in the disposal of the subject airport property nor 
a determination of eligibility for grant-in-aid funding from the FAA. 
The disposition of proceeds from the disposal of the airport property 
will be in accordance FAA's Policy and Procedures Concerning the Use of 
Airport Revenue, published in the Federal Register on February 16, 
1999.
    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 May 25, 2005.
