Notice of extension of application deadline for participation in the Military Airport Program (MAP) for the fiscal year 2007. 

# SUMMARY:

                        The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is extending to January 19, 2007, the date to submit an application for the MAP.

In that Notice of Opportunity to Participate, FAA requested applications be received on or before November 27, 2006. The agency is taking this action in response to requests for an application deadline extension to allow interested persons additional time to submit applications.

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## I. Background

                    In the                     **Federal Register**                     of October 16, 2006 (71 FR 60791), FAA published a notice of Opportunity to Participate, criteria requirements and application procedure for designation or redesignation in the MAP.                 

The agency has received multiple requests for an extension of the date to submit an application. FAA has considered the requests and is extending the date to submit an application for 30 days, until January 19, 2007. The agency believes that a 30-day extension allows adequate time for interested persons to submit applications without significantly delaying the implementation of the MAP.

Dated: December 14, 2006.

James R. White,

Acting Director, Officer of Airport Planning and Programming.
