DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Aviation Administration 

Notice of a Land Release Affecting 

Federal Grant Assurance Obligations 

at Tucson International Airport, 

Tucson, Pima County, Arizona 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration, DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of a Land Release. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA) proposes to rule 

and invites public comment on the 

application for a land release of 

approximately 60 acres of airport 

property at Tucson International 

Airport, Tucson, Pima County, Arizona 

from the aeronautical use provisions of 

the Grant Agreement Assurances since 

the land is not needed for airport 

purposes. The property will be used by 

Pima County, Arizona to relocate an 

existing roadway that is too close to 

United States Air Force Plant Number 4, 

a military ordnance manufacturing 

facility. The proposed land release will 

allow the relocated public roadway to 

comply with the military safety 

separation standards from the ordnance 

facility. The airport will be 

compensated for the fair market value of 

the land. The use of the land for a 

roadway represents a compatible land 

use that will not interfere with the 

airport or its operation, thereby 

protecting the interests of civil aviation. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before January 28, 2015. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Comments on the request may be mailed 

or delivered to the FAA at the following 

address: Mr. Mike N. Williams, 

Manager, Airports District Office, 

Federal Register Comment, Federal 

Aviation Administration, Phoenix 

Airports District Office, 3800 N. Central 

Avenue, Suite 1025, Phoenix, Arizona 

85012. In addition, one copy of the 

comment submitted to the FAA must be 

mailed or delivered to Mr. Eric 

Roudebush, Director of Environmental 

Services, Tucson Airport Authority, 

7005 South Plumer Avenue, Tucson, 

Arizona 85756. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with the Wendell H. Ford 

Aviation Investment and Reform Act for 

the 21st Century (AIR 21), Public Law 

10–181 (Apr. 5, 2000; 114 Stat. 61), this 

notice must be published in the Federal 

Register 30 days before the DOT 

Secretary may waive any condition 

imposed on a federally obligated airport 

by surplus property conveyance deeds 

or grant agreements. 

The following is a brief overview of 

the request: 

The Tucson Airport Authority (TAA) 

requested a release from the provisions 

of the Grant Agreement Assurances to 

permit the disposal of approximately 60 

acres of land at Tucson International 

Airport, Tucson, Pima County, Arizona 

to permit the construction of a relocated 

replacement roadway by Pima County 

(County) to comply with safety arcs 

defined by the United States Air Force 

(USAF) for USAF Plant Number 44. The 

County proposes to relocate a portion of 

East Hughes Access Road between the 

South Nogales Highway and South 

Alvernon Way about 2,500 feet to the 

south of its present location so the new 

roadway and its users will be outside 

the designated safety zones used by the 

United States Air Force Plant Number 

44 to keep the public a safe distance 

from an ordnance plant. The Tucson 

Airport Authority will sell the land, 

about 3 miles in length, that is obligated 

by Airport Improvement Program grants. 

In return, TAA will be compensated for 

the fair market value of the right of way 

property. In addition, when the old 

roadway is abandoned, TAA will have 

its rights restored to the portions that it 

originally owned. The use of the land 

for a roadway is a compatible land use 

that will not interfere with or impede 

the operations and development of the 

airport. Based on the benefits of fair 

compensation and enhanced public 

safety, the interests of civil aviation will 

be properly served. 

Issued in Hawthorne, California, on 

December 18, 2014.

Manager, Safety and Standards Branch,

Program helps communities achieve or 

maintain the National Ambient Air 

Quality Standards for ozone and carbon

otherwise reallocated.
