Public Notice for Waiver of Aeronautical Land-Use Assurance; 
Greater Beardstown Airport, Beardstown, IL

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of intent of waiver with respect to land.

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

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is considering a 
proposal to change a portion of airport land from aeronautical use to 
non-aeronautical use and to authorize the exchange of the property for 
land needed to protect the transitional surface of Runway 18/36. The 
proposal consists of a 2.1-acre portion of Parcel 1 in exchange for 9.6 
acres of Parcel 3. Presently the 2.1 acres of Parcel 1 is located 
outside of the fenced in portion of airport property and any protected 
zone (runway protection zone, object free area, object free zone, etc.) 
This land is currently being used as residential and has a mobile home 
located on it. Parcel 1 was acquired in 1986 with Federal 
participation. It is the intent of the City of Beardstown, as owner and 
operator of the Greater Beardstown Airport (K06) to exchange the 
subject portion of Parcel 1 (2.1 Acres) to Ms. Hardwick, Beardstown, IL 
in exchange for 9.6 acres of land (portion of Parcel 3), which is in 
the side transition area of Runway 18/36. This notice announces that 
the FAA is considering the proposal to authorize the exchange of the 
subject airport property at the Greater Beardstown Airport, Beardstown, 
IL with a portion of Parcel 3 (9.6 acres). Approval does not constitute 
a commitment by the FAA to financially assist in disposal of the 
subject airport property nor a determination that all measures covered 
by the program are eligible for grant-in-aid funding from the FAA.
    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 September 24, 2008.
