**Federal Aviation Administration**

**Public Notice for Waiver for Aeronautical Land-Use Assurance at**  **Will Rogers World Airport, Oklahoma City, OK** 

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

**ACTION :**  Notice of Intent for Waiver of Aeronautical Land-Use. **SUMMARY :**  The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is considering a proposal to change a portion of the airport from aeronautical use to nonaeronautical use and to authorize the conversion of the airport property. The proposal consists of three parcels of land containing a total of approximately 127 acres located on the east side of the airport between South Portland Avenue and Interstate Highway 44.

These parcels were originally acquired under the following grants: Airport Improvement Program (AIP) Nos. 3–40–0072–03 and 3–40–0072–07 in 1990; AIP No. 3–40–0072–23 in 1992; and AIP No. 3–40–0072–24 in 1993. The land comprising these parcels is outside the forecasted need for aviation development and, thus, is no longer needed for indirect or direct aeronautical use. The Airport wishes to develop this land for compatible commercial, nonaeronautical use. The income from the conversion of these parcels will benefit the aviation community by reinvestment in the airport.

Approval does not constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially assist in the conversion of the subject airport property nor a determination of eligibility for grant-in-aid funding from the FAA. The disposition of proceeds from the conversion of the airport property will be in accordance with FAA’s Policy and Procedures Concerning the Use of Airport Revenue, published in the Federal Register on February 16, 1999. In accordance with section 47107(h) of title 49, United States Code, this notice is required to be published in the Federal Register 30 days before modifying the land-use assurance that requires the property to be used for an aeronautical purpose.

**DATES :**  Comments must be received on or before March 14, 2012.

**ADDRESSES :**  Send comments on this document to Mr. Edward N. Agnew, Federal Aviation Administration, Arkansas/Oklahoma Airports Development Office Manager, 2601 Meacham Boulevard, Fort Worth, TX
76137.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Background

Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, FMCSA may grant an exemption from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations for a 2-year period if it finds ‘‘such exemption would likely achieve a level of safety that is equivalent to or greater than the level that would be achieved absent such exemption.’’ FMCSA can renew exemptions at the end of each 2-year period. The 11 individuals listed in this notice have each requested such an exemption from the vision requirement in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10), which applies to drivers of CMVs in interstate commerce. Accordingly, the Agency will evaluate the qualifications of each applicant to determine whether granting an exemption will achieve the required level of safety mandated by statute.
