# ACTION:

Notice of intent of waiver with respect to land.

# SUMMARY:

The FAA is considering a proposal to change 3.44 acres of airport land from aeronautical use to non-aeronautical use and to authorize the sale of airport property located at Willow Run Airport, Detroit, Michigan. The aforementioned land is not needed for aeronautical use.

The property is located in the southwest corner of the airport. It is outside of the airport operations area and is currently used as a Hazardous Waste Landfill.

# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    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.                

                    The property is outside of the airport operations area and is currently used as a Hazardous Waste Landfill. The property is surplus property from the U.S. Government. It was initially transferred to the University of Michigan in 1947. In 1977, the University of Michigan transferred title of the Willow Run Airport, including this parcel, to the County of Wayne, Michigan. In 1996 the Federal Aviation Administration released 13.34 acres on this site to accommodate the landfill. This proposal will release the remainder of the site. The proposed use will remain as a Hazardous Waste Landfill. The airport sponsor is now requesting to transfer title to this property to Ford                           ( print page 42413)                        Motor Company which is currently operating the landfill.
