**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  The FAA invites public comment on the request to release approximately 0.7± acres of airport property at Enterprise Municipal Airport (EDN) under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47107(h)(2). The FAA determined that the request to release property at Enterprise Municipal Airport (EDN) submitted by the Sponsor meets the procedural requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration and the release of the property does not and will not impact future aviation needs at the airport. The FAA may approve the request, in whole or in part, no sooner than thirty days after the publication of this notice.

The following is a brief overview of the request:

The Enterprise Municipal Airport (EDN) is proposing the release of airport property totaling 0.7 acres, more or less. This land is to be used by City of Enterprise for construction of a municipal fire station. The release of land is necessary to comply with Federal Aviation Administration Grant Assurances that do not allow federally acquired airport property to be used for non-aviation purposes. The sale of the subject property will result in the land at Enterprise Municipal Airport (EDN)being changed from aeronautical to nonaeronautical use and release the lands from the conditions of the Airport Improvement Program Grant Agreement Grant Assurances. In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 47107(c)(2)(B)(i) and (iii), the airport will receive fair market value for the property, which will be subsequently reinvested in another eligible airport improvement project for general aviation facilities at Enterprise Municipal Airport. The proposed use of this property is compatible with airport operations.

Any person may inspect the request in person at the FAA office listed above under **FOR FURTHER INFORMATION**
**CONTACT**

In addition, any person may, upon request, inspect the request, notice and other documents germane to the request in person at the Enterprise Municipal Airport.

**[FHWA Docket No. FHWA–2016–0003]**

**Surface Transportation Project Delivery Program; TxDOT Audit Report** 

**AGENCY :**  Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Department of Transportation (DOT).

**ACTION :**  Notice.

**SUMMARY :**  The Surface Transportation Project Delivery Program (23 U.S.C. 327) allows a State to assume FHWA’s environmental responsibilities for review, consultation, and compliance for Federal-aid highway projects. When a State assumes these Federal responsibilities, the State becomes solely responsible and liable for carrying out the responsibilities it has assumed, in lieu of FHWA. Prior to the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act of 2015, the program required semiannual audits during each of the first 2 years of State participation to ensure compliance by each State participating in the program. This notice presents the findings of the second audit report for the Texas Department of Transportation’s (TxDOT) participation in accordance to these pre-FAST Act requirements.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  Dr. Owen Lindauer, Office of Project Development and Environmental Review, (202) 366–2655, owen.lindauer@dot.gov, or Mr. Alan Strasser, Office of the Chief Counsel, (202) 366–1373, alan.strasser@dot.gov, Federal Highway Administration, Department of Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC 20590. Office hours are from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., e.t., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays.

Background

The Surface Transportation Project Delivery Program (or NEPA Assignment Program) allows a State to assume FHWA’s environmental responsibilities for review, consultation, and compliance for Federal-aid highway projects (23 U.S.C. 327). When a State assumes these Federal responsibilities, the State becomes solely responsible and liable for carrying out the responsibilities it has assumed, in lieu of FHWA. The TxDOT published its application for assumption under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Assignment Program on March 14, 2014, at Texas Register 39(11): 1992, and made it available for public comment for 30 days. After considering public comments, TxDOT submitted its application to FHWA on May 29, 2014. The application served as the basis for developing the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that identifies the responsibilities and obligations TxDOT would assume. The FHWA published a notice of the draft of the MOU in the Federal Register on October 10, 2014, at 79 FR 61370 with a 30-day comment period to solicit the views of the public and Federal agencies. After the close of the comment period FHWA and TxDOT considered comments and proceeded to execute the MOU. Since December 16, 2014, TxDOT has assumed FHWA’s responsibilities under NEPA, and the responsibilities for the NEPA-related Federal environmental laws.

Prior to December 4, 2015, 23 U.S.C. 327(g) required the Secretary to conduct semiannual audits during each of the first 2 years of State participation, and annual audits during each subsequent year of State participation to ensure compliance by each State participating in the program. The results of each audit were required to be presented in the form of an audit report and be made available for public comment. On December 4, 2015, the President signed into law the FAST Act (Pub. L. 114–94, 129 Stat. 1312 (2015)). Section 1308 of the FAST Act amended the audit provisions by limiting the number of audits to one audit each year during the first 4 years of a State’s participation. However, FHWA had already conducted the second audit in September 2015 regarding TxDOT’s program participation. The FHWA received one response from the TxDOT as a result of the public notice of the draft report and has considered the TxDOT comments in finalizing this audit report. The TxDOT’s comments reflect actions it has taken in response to the report’s observations. Only one comment has resulted in a non-substantial change in this report. This notice provides the final draft of the report for second audit for TxDOT conducted prior to the FAST
Act.
