SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA invites public comment on the 
request to release approximately 46.8 acres of airport 
property at The Eastern Iowa Airport (CID) under the provisions of 49 
U.S.C. 47107(h)(2). On March 3, 2016, the Director of Finance and 
Administration at The Eastern Iowa Airport requested from the FAA that 
approximately 46.8 acres of property be released for sale 
to Nordstrom, Inc. for use as a fulfillment center and employee parking 
or other purposes consistent with the zoning ordinances of the City. On 
May 18, 2016, the FAA determined that the request to release property 
at The Eastern Iowa Airport (CID) submitted by the Sponsor meets the 
procedural requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration and the 
release 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 Eastern Iowa (CID) is proposing the release of airport property 
totaling 46.8 acres, more or less. This land is to be used for a 
fulfillment center with employee parking lot. 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 sale of the subject property will 
result in the land at The Eastern Iowa Airport (CID) being changed from 
aeronautical to non-aeronautical use and release the 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 value for the property, which will 
be subsequently reinvested in another eligible airport improvement 
project for general aviation facilities at The Eastern Iowa Airport.
    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 determined by the FAA to be 
related to the application in person at The Eastern Iowa Airport.

    Issued in Kansas City, MO, on May 18, 2016.
Jim A. Johnson,
Manager, Airports Division.
