in Part for Collection and Use:

recorded incorrectly in the PFC

Runway and taxiway rehabilitation.

Determination: Partially approved.

The public agency did not provide

information on justification for the

drainage and compass calibration pad

components of this project. Therefore,

those components are not PFC eligible.

The approved amount was reduced from

the amount requested to account for

those components determined

ineligible.

The approved amount was reduced from

the requested amount because the

requested amount was inadvertently

Brief Description of Project

Disapproved: Terminal hold room

expansion.

Determination: Disapproved. The

FAA has determined that due to the

declining number of enplanements at

Gainesville Regional Airport (GNV) over

the past 10 years, an absence of

adequate information to signal a reversal

of the current enplanement trend, and

an absence of adequate information to

show that the existing terminal area

space does not sufficiently

accommodate current demand,

expansion of the terminal hold room is

not justified. Therefore, this project does

not meet the requirements of § 158.15,

and is disapproved. In making this

determination, the FAA examined the

project using the guidelines contained

in paragraph 69b of FAA Advisory

Circular 150/5360–13, Design

Guidelines for Airport Terminal

Facilities.

Decision Date: March 2, 2000.
