Notice of Intent of Waiver With Respect to Land; French Lick Municipal Airport, French Lick, IN
AGENCY:
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY:
[top] The FAA is considering a proposal to change 18.23 Acres of airport land from aeronautical use to non-aeronautical use and to authorize the sale of airport property located at French Lick Municipal Airport, French Lick, IN. The aforementioned land is not needed for aeronautical use. The current county road adjacent to the subject property was constructed on previous airport property sold by the Airport to Orange County; however, due to unforeseen geological conditions, the road has failed multiple times. As a corrective action, Orange County, in partnership with the Indiana Department of Transportation seek to realign a portion of the road to a location to avoid the region with the geologic issues. In order to facilitate this realignment, the Airport was approached with a second request to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
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.
The subject land is part of two parcels. Parcel 1 was acquired fee simple by the French Lick Board of Aviation Commissioners from a private owner with the assistance of federal funds under Federal Aid to Airport Program Project No. 9-12-041-6301 in 1963. The subject sub-parcels (1, 1A and 1B) within Parcel 1 total approximately 10.209 acres. Parcel 2 was acquired fee simple by the French Lick BOAC from a private owner with the assistance of federal funds under Airport Improvement Program (AIP) grant number 3-18-0027-08 in 2010. The subject sub-parcel (2) is approximately 8.021 acres. The Sponsor is seeking FAA approval for release of land covenants associated with fee simple ownership to provide right of way for the Orange County Commissioners to re-align and re-construct County Road CR 300 South/Airport Road that will provide a safe roadway that meets current roadway design standards. The aforementioned land is not needed for aeronautical use, as shown on the Airport Layout Plan. There are no impacts to the airport by allowing the airport to dispose of the property. No cash proceeds are expected as a result of the land release. The combined Fair Market Value of the parcels to be released is appraised at $73,085. The FMV received for the parcels will come in the form of excess materials (soil/fill) from the county road project that will be stockpiled on airport property for its ultimate use for an upcoming apron expansion project at French Lick Municipal Airport. Based on an engineering analysis that looked at the quality and dollar value of the fill, its value far exceeds the appraised value of the land parcels being released to Orange County for the relocated County Road CR 300/Airport Road. This in-kind project material value benefits the Airport and since it exceeds the estimated value of the land to be released.
The disposition of proceeds from the sale 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 (64 FR 7696).
This notice announces that the FAA is considering the release of the subject airport property at the French Lick Municipal Airport, French Lick, Indiana from federal land covenants, subject to a reservation for continuing right of flight as well as restrictions on the released property as required in FAA Order 5190.6B section 22.16. 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.
