Notice of Opportunity for Public Comment on a Proposed Change of 
Airport Property Land Use From Aeronautical to Non-Aeronautical Use at 
Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport, Little Rock, AR

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is considering a request from the City of Little Rock-
Little Rock Airport Commission to change approximately 21.29 acres, 
located on the south side of the airport bordered by Grundfest Drive 
and East Roosevelt Road, from aeronautical use to non-aeronautical use 
and to authorize the conversion of the airport property.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before October 11, 2022.

ADDRESSES: Send comments on this document to Mr. Glenn Boles, Federal 
Aviation Administration, Arkansas/Oklahoma Airports District Office 
Manager, 10101 Hillwood Parkway, Fort Worth, TX 76177. Email: 
[email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Suzanne Peyton, Director of 
Properties, Planning and Development, Bill and Hillary Clinton National 
Airport, One Airport Road, Little Rock, AR 72202, telephone (501) 372-
3439. Email: [email protected]; or Mr. Glenn Boles, Federal 
Aviation Administration, Arkansas/Oklahoma Airports District Office 
Manager, 10101 Hillwood Parkway, Fort Worth, TX 76177, telephone (817) 
222-5639. Email: [email protected].
    Documents reflecting this FAA action may be reviewed at the above 
locations.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposal consists of 21.29 acres 
comprised of portions of two tracts of land, consisting of 9.66 acres 
within Tract 1 and 11.63 acres within Tract 6. Tract 1 was included in 
the original airport tract of 802 acres, which was transferred under 
provisions of the Surplus Act of 1944 to the City of Little Rock in May 
1951. Tract 6 which in total is 88.8 acres was purchased with Federal 
Aid under FAA Grant #9-03-17-C818.
    The land comprising these parcels is outside the forecasted need 
for aviation development and is not needed for indirect or direct 
aeronautical use. The Airport wishes to develop this land for 
compatible non-aeronautical use. The Airport will retain ownership of 
this land and ensure the protection of Part 77 surfaces and compatible 
land use. The income from the conversion of these parcels will benefit 
the aviation community by reinvestment in the airport.
    Approval does not constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially 
assist in the conversion of the subject airport property nor a 
determination of eligibility for grant-in-aid funding from the FAA. The 
disposition of proceeds from the conversion 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. 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.

    Issued in Fort Worth, TX.
Ignacio Flores,
Director, Airports Division, FAA, Southwest Region.
