Federal Aviation Administration


Request for Public Comment, Clinton County Airport, Plattsburgh, 
NY

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Request for public comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration is requesting public 
comment on Clinton County Airport (PLB), Plattsburgh, New York notice 
of proposed release from aeronautical use of approximately 624 acres of 
airport property, including runways, taxiways, aprons, airside and 
landside facilities to allow for non-aeronautical development. It has 
been determined through the planning process to close Clinton County 
Airport and transfer all operations to Plattsburgh International 
Airport (PBG), Plattsburgh, New York, its replacement airport. FAA's 
action is to release the land from its deed provision requiring 
aeronautical use of the property. A prior study explored the potential 
for the public benefit conveyance of Plattsburgh International Airport 
as a replacement airport, with Clinton County as the owner and operator 
of the new airport. The Plattsburgh International Military Airport 
Program application and Airport Master Plan determined that land 
constituting Clinton County Airport has no aeronautical use and should 
be replaced by the new facility at PGB. Revenue generated from the 
disposal of the property will be utilized at the replacement airport, 
Plattsburgh International Airport, Plattsburgh, New York for 
aeronautical development. Documents reflecting the sponsor's request 
are available, by appointment only, for inspection at the Airport 
Manager's office and the FAA Airports District Office.

DATES: Comments must be received by November 13, 2007.

ADDRESSES: Comments on this application may be mailed or delivered to 
the FAA at the following address: Steven M. Urlass, Manager, FAA New 
York Airports District Office, 600 Old Country Road, Suite 446, Garden 
City, New York 11530. In addition, a coy of any comments submitted to 
the FAA must be mailed or delivered to Mr. James R. Langley, 
Chairperson, Clinton County Legislature, at the following address:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 125 of the Wendell H. Ford Aviation

airport land for aeronautical use.
