Use From Aeronautical to Non-Aeronautical at Stafford Regional Airport,
Stafford, VA
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) DOT.
ACTION: Notice of request for a change in use of on-airport property.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA proposes to rule and invites public comment on
Stafford Regional Airport Authority's request to change 0.886 acres of
federally obligated airport property at Stafford Regional Airport,
Stafford, VA from aeronautical to non-aeronautical use. This acreage
was originally purchased with federal financial assistance through the
Airport Improvement Program. The proposed use of land after the release
will be compatible with the airport and will not interfere with the
airport or its operation.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before June 6, 2022.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Comments on this application may be
mailed or delivered to the following address:
James L. Stover, Airport Director, Stafford Regional Airport, 95
Aviation Way, Fredericksburg, VA 22406, (540) 658-1212
and at the FAA Washington Airports District Office:
Matthew J. Thys, Manager, Washington Airports District Office, 13873
Park Center Road, Suite 490S, Herndon, VA 20171, (703) 487-3980
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Wendell H. Ford
Aviation Investment and Reform Act for the 21st Century (AIR 21),
Public Law 106-181 (Apr. 5, 2000; 114 Stat. 61), this notice must be
published in the Federal Register 30 days before the Secretary may
waive any condition imposed on a federally obligated airport by grant
agreements. The following is a brief overview of the request.
Stafford Regional Airport Authority has submitted a land release
request seeking FAA approval for the change in use of approximately
0.886 acres of federally obligated airport property from aeronautical
to non-aeronautical use. The property is situated on the southeast side
of Aviation Way. Due to this location, the subject area is unable to be
utilized for aviation purposes because the airport operations area is
located to the west of Aviation Way.
[[Page 26799]]
Thus, the subject area is inaccessible to aircraft.
The 0.886 acres of land to be released was originally purchased as
part of a 60.000-acre parcel and 73.860-acre parcel with federal
financial assistance through the AIP program under Grant Agreement 3-
51-0069-06. As foreseen at the time of the execution of this Grant
Agreement, the only portions of the 60.000-acre parcel and 73.860-acre
parcel that were required for aeronautical use are the portions of the
parcels to the west of Aviation Way. Subsequent to the implementation
of the proposed change in use, monies received by the airport from this
property are considered airport revenue, and will be used in accordance
with 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and the FAA's Policy and Procedures Concerning
the Use of Airport Revenue published in the Federal Register on
February 16, 1999. The proposed use of the property will not interfere
with the airport or its operation.
Issued in Herndon, Virginia.
Matthew J. Thys,
Manager, Washington Airports District Office.
