Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 45 / Monday, March 9, 2015 / Notices 12547 

property for airport purposes pursuant 

to Section 16 of the Federal Airport Act 

(60 Stat. 179) or Section 23 of the 

Airport and Airway Development Act of 

1970 (84 Stat. 232). 

On March 2, 2015, the FAA 

determined that the request to release 

property from aeronautical use at the 

Grand Junction Regional Airport 

submitted by the Grand Junction 

Regional Airport Authority meets the 

procedural requirements of the Federal 

Aviation Administration. The FAA may 

approve the request, in whole or in part, 

no later than April 8, 2015. 

The following is a brief overview of 

the request: 

The Grand Junction Regional Airport 

Authority is proposing the release from 

the aeronautical use terms, conditions, 

reservations, and restrictions on 37.057 

acres parcel of property conveyed to the 

City of Grand Junction on September 14, 

1951 pursuant to Section 16 of the 

Federal Airport Act. All Section 16 

property at the airport was subsequently 

conveyed by the City of Grand Junction 

to the Walker Field, Colorado, Public 

Airport Authority by Warranty Deed 

dated March 24, 1975. On August 26, 

1988, 18 acres (parcels F, G, I, J, and K) 

of the subject property was granted a 

deed of release by the FAA to be 

released from aeronautical use, and 

leased at fair market value in generating 

airport revenue. In 2008, the airport 

access road adjacent to the parcels 

previously released was upgraded and 

realigned. Based on the new alignment 

the 18 acres previously released in 1988 

are included in this proposed release of 

37 acres as they overlap with the current 

layout. The proposed release would 

allow for future non-aeronautical uses 

that may include mixed-use 

commercial, restaurants, hotels, retail 

shops, industrial and manufacturing, 

which are permitted under the current 

Planned Airport Development zoning. 

The proceeds from the leasing of the 

property will be at fair market value and 

the sponsor will utilize the revenue to 

reinvest into future airport 

development. 

Any person may inspect, by 

appointment, the request in person at 

the FAA office listed above under FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. 

In addition, any person may, upon 

appointment and request, inspect the 

application, notice and other documents 

germane to the application in person at 

the Grand Junction Regional Airport. 

Issued in Denver, Colorado, on March 2, 

2015.

Applications; Vision 

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Administration (FMCSA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of renewal of 

exemptions; request for comments. 

SUMMARY: FMCSA announces its 

decision to renew the exemptions from 

the vision requirement in the Federal 

Motor Carrier Safety Regulations for 11 

individuals. FMCSA has statutory 

authority to exempt individuals from 

the vision requirement if the 

exemptions granted will not 

compromise safety. The Agency has 

concluded that granting these 

exemption renewals will provide a level 

of safety that is equivalent to or greater 

than the level of safety maintained 

without the exemptions for these 

commercial motor vehicle (CMV) 

drivers.

2015. Comments must be received on or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, 

FMCSA may renew an exemption from 

the vision requirements in 49 CFR 

391.41(b)(10), which applies to drivers 

of CMVs in interstate commerce, for a 

two-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.’’ The 

procedures for requesting an exemption 

(including renewals) are set out in 49 

CFR part 381. 

II. Exemption Decision 

This notice addresses 11 individuals 

who have requested renewal of their 

exemptions in accordance with FMCSA 

procedures. FMCSA has evaluated these 

11 applications for renewal on their 

merits and decided to extend each 

exemption for a renewable two-year 

period. They are:

The exemptions are extended subject 

to the following conditions: (1) That 

each individual has a physical 

examination every year (a) by an 

ophthalmologist or optometrist who 

attests that the vision in the better eye 

continues to meet the requirements in 

49 CFR 391.41(b)(10), and (b) by a 

medical examiner who attests that the 

individual is otherwise physically 

qualified under 49 CFR 391.41; (2) that 

each individual provides a copy of the 

ophthalmologist’s or optometrist’s 

report to the medical examiner at the 

time of the annual medical examination; 

and (3) that each individual provide a 

copy of the annual medical certification 

to the employer for retention in the 

driver’s qualification file and retains a 

copy of the certification on his/her 

person while driving for presentation to 

a duly authorized Federal, State, or local 

enforcement official. Each exemption 

will be valid for two years unless 

rescinded earlier by FMCSA. The 

exemption will be rescinded if: (1) The 

person fails to comply with the terms 

and conditions of the exemption; (2) the 

exemption has resulted in a lower level 

of safety than was maintained before it 

was granted; or (3) continuation of the 

exemption would not be consistent with 

the goals and objectives of 49 U.S.C. 

31136(e) and 31315. 

III. Basis for Renewing Exemptions 

Under 49 U.S.C. 31315(b)(1), an 

exemption may be granted for no longer 

than two years from its approval date 

and may be renewed upon application 

for additional two year periods. In 

accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 

31315, each of the 11 applicants has 

satisfied the entry conditions for 

obtaining an exemption from the vision 

requirements (74 FR 7097; 74 FR 15584; 

76 FR 15361; 78 FR 16761). Each of 

these 11 applicants has requested 

renewal of the exemption and has 

submitted evidence showing that the 

vision in the better eye continues to 

meet the requirement specified at 49 

CFR 391.41(b)(10) and that the vision 

impairment is stable. In addition, a 

review of each record of safety while 

driving with the respective vision 

deficiencies over the past two years 

indicates each applicant continues to 

meet the vision exemption 

requirements. These factors provide an 

adequate basis for predicting each 

driver’s ability to continue to drive 

safely in interstate commerce. 

Therefore, FMCSA concludes that 

extending the exemption for each 

renewal applicant for a period of two 

years is likely to achieve a level of safety 

equal to that existing without the 

exemption.
