**Deadline for Notification of Intent To Use the Airport Improvement Program**  **(AIP) Primary, Cargo, and Nonprimary Entitlement Funds for Fiscal Year 2010** 

**AGENCY :**  Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

**ACTION :**  Notice.

**SUMMARY :**  The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces February 22, 2010, as the deadline for each airport sponsor to notify the FAA whether or not it will use its fiscal year 2010 entitlement funds available under Public Law No. 111–117 to accomplish Airport Improvement Program (AIP)- eligible projects that the sponsor previously identified through the Airports Capital Improvement Plan (ACIP) process during the preceding year. If a sponsor does not declare their intention regarding their fiscal year 2010 entitlement funds by February 22, 2010, FAA will be unable to take the necessary actions to award these funds, nor designate these funds as ‘‘ protected ’’ carryover funds. In addition, these funds will not be carried over without a legislative enactment that provides an additional AIP authorization and an extension of the FAA’s spending authority from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund beyond March 31, 2010.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  Mr. Frank J. San Martin, Manager, Airports Financial Assistance Division, APP– 500, on (202) 267–3831.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Title 49 of the United States Code, section 47105(f), provides that the sponsor of each airport to which funds are apportioned shall notify the Secretary by such time and in a form as prescribed by the Secretary, of the sponsor’s intent to apply for the funds apportioned to it (entitlements). This notice applies only to those airports that have had entitlement funds apportioned to them, except those nonprimary airports located in designated Block Grant States. Sponsors intending to apply for any of their available entitlement funds, including those unused from prior years, shall submit by February 22, 2010, a written indication to the designated Airports District Office (or Regional Office in regions without Airports District Offices) that they will submit a grant application prior to February 26, 2010, or by a prior date established by the designated Airport District or Regional Office.

This notice is promulgated to expedite and prioritize the grant-making process. In the past when there has been full-year funding for AIP, the FAA has established a deadline of May 1 for an airport sponsor to declare whether it will apply for, or defer use of its entitlement funding. Considering that Congress has authorized the AIP program only until March 31, 2010, i.e. into the middle of a fiscal year, the FAA is establishing February 22, 2010, as the deadline for each airport sponsor to notify the FAA whether or not it will use its fiscal year 2010 entitlement funds.

The AIP grant program is operating under the requirements of Public Law No. 111–116, the ‘‘ Federal Aviation Administration Extension Act, Part II ’’

, enacted on December 16, 2009, which amends 49 U.S.C. 48103, to extend AIP
