Abstract
The FAA proposes to rule and invites public comment on the application for a release of approximately 0.12 acres of federally obligated airport property at Francis S. Gabreski Airport, Southampton, New York, from both the Federal Surplus Property obligations contained in the July 12, 1972 Quitclaim Deed, and the Grant Assurance obligations. This acreage is composed of one parcel of land that was transferred from the United States of America to the County of Suffolk under the provisions of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 and the Surplus Property Act of 1944. The release will allow the airport to enter into a long-term non-aeronautical lease with the Suffolk County Water Authority (SCWA) for a water booster pump station. The proposed use of land after the release will be compatible with the airport and will not interfere with the airport or its operation.

obligations. This acreage is composed of one parcel of land that was
transferred from the United States of America to the County of Suffolk
under the provisions of the Federal Property and Administrative
Services Act of 1949 and the Surplus Property Act of 1944. The release
will allow the airport to enter into a long-term non-aeronautical lease
with the Suffolk County Water Authority (SCWA) for a water booster pump
station. The proposed use of land after the release will be compatible
with the airport and will not interfere with the airport or its
operation.

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 surplus
property conveyance deeds or grant agreements. The following is a brief
overview of the request.
The County of Suffolk requested a release from surplus property and
grant assurance obligations to allow a land-use change in use for other
than aeronautical purposes of approximately 0.12 acres of airport
property at Francis S. Gabreski Airport. Specifically, the release
request seeks approval to allow for the permanent non-aeronautical use
of the property, a long-term non-aeronautical lease with the Suffolk
County Water Authority (SCWA) for a water booster pump station; and the
release of the 0.12 acres of property, transferred via the
aforementioned Quitclaim Deed, from the National Emergency Use
Provision (NEUP). The NEUP allows the United States of America the
right to make use of the land during any national emergency as declared
by the President or Congress. FAA approval of this request, with
respect to the aforementioned 0.12 acres, is contingent on the
Department of Defense's concurrence that the 0.12 acres is no longer
required for aeronautical purposes.
The airport will retain ownership of the 0.12 acres and will
receive fair market value rent for the length of the agreement. The
rental income will be devoted to airport operations and capital
projects. The proposed use of the property will not interfere with the
airport or its operation; and will thereby, serve the interests of
civil aviation.
Issued in Jamaica, New York, on August 24, 2022.
Evelyn Martinez,
Manager, New York Airports District Office.
