SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    In the Federal Register of October 16, 2006 (71 FR 60791), FAA 
published a notice of Opportunity to Participate, criteria requirements 
and application procedure for designation or redesignation in the MAP.
    The agency has received multiple requests for an extension of the 
date to submit an application. FAA has considered the requests and is 
extending the date to submit an application for 30 days, until January 
19, 2007. The agency believes that a 30-day extension allows adequate 
time for interested persons to submit applications without 
significantly delaying the implementation of the MAP.

    Dated: December 14, 2006.
James R. White,
Acting Director, Officer of Airport Planning and Programming.
