DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

[Public Notice 6878] 

Notice of Meeting of a Study Group of 

the U.S. Department of State Advisory 

Committee on Private International 

Law 

A Study Group of the Department of 

State Advisory Committee on Private 

International Law (ACPIL) will hold a 

public meeting to continue the 

discussion of the treatment of IPsecured financing practices in the 

United Nations Commission on 

International Trade (UNCITRAL) Draft 

Legislative Guide on Secured 

Transactions (Guide). At the 40th 

Session of the UNCITRAL in December 

2007, it adopted a legislative guide on 

secured transactions, including 

recommendations dealing with the 

scope of the Guide as it relates to IP law 

and secured financing, as well as the 

inclusion in the commentary to the 

Guide of explanatory statements on the 

treatment of IP as secured financing. 

UNCITRAL also approved a work 

project on IP law matters as they relate 

to secured financing law. Other sessions 

for that work project were held in May 

and October of 2008 and April and 

October 2009. This is not a meeting of 

the full Advisory Committee. 

The Study Group will use this public 

meeting to continue to exchange 

thoughts on the relationship between 

secured finance and IP and how this 

matter should be addressed in the new 

draft IP annex to the Guide. The report 

of the earlier sessions of the UNCITRAL 

Working Group and the papers prepared 

by the Secretariat for the next session of 

the UNCITRAL working group can be 

obtained at http://www.uncitral.org/

working_groups/ 

6Security_Interests.html. The revised 

document that will be reviewed at the 

February 8–12 session of the Working 

Group in New York is also available on 

this link. 

Time and Place: The public meeting 

will take place at the Department of 

State, Office of Private International 

Law, 2430 E Street, NW., Washington,

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Aviation Administration 

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
