ACTION: Notice of Intent of Waiver with respect to land.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA invites public comment on the 
request to change approximately 10 acres of airport property at the 
Rolla National Airport (VIH) from aeronautical use to non-aeronautical 
for revenue producing use. The parcel of land is located along the 
Southwest corner of the airport, near Missouri State Highway 28. This 
parcel will be used for construction and operation of The Brewer 
Science Building. Brewer Science is a high technology electronics firm 
that produces products such as anti-reflective coating, lift-off 
materials, protective coatings, temporary bondings, etc. which is 
headquartered in Rolla. The firm conducts business around the world 
with an emphasis in North America, Europe and China.
    No airport landside or airside facilities are presently located on 
this parcel, nor are airport developments contemplated in the future. 
There is no current use of the surface of the parcel. The parcel will 
serve as a revenue producing lot with the proposed change from 
aeronautical to non-aeronautical. The request submitted by the Sponsor 
meets the procedural requirements of the Federal Aviation 
Administration and the change to non-aeronautical status 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 Rolla National Airport (VIH) is proposing the release of one 
parcel, of 10 acres, more or less from aeronautical to non-
aeronautical. 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 
rental of the subject property will result in the land at the Rolla 
National Airport (VIH) being changed from aeronautical to 
nonaeronautical use and release the

[[Page 15805]]

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 rental value for 
the property. The annual income from rent payments will generate a 
long-term, revenue-producing stream that will further the Sponsor's 
obligation under FAA Grant Assurance number 24, to make the Rolla 
National Airport as financially self-sufficient as possible.
    Following is a legal description of the subject airport property at 
the Rolla National Airport (VIH):
    A fractional part of the Southwest Quarter of Section 2, Township 
39 North, Range 8 West of the 5th P.M. described as follows: Commencing
