SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 28, 2014, the City of Griffin and 
Spalding County, herein referred to as the Sponsor, and the Griffin-
Spalding County Airport Authority entered into a Memorandum of 
Agreement (Agreement) with the FAA for replacing the Griffin-Spalding 
County Airport (6A2) in Griffin, Georgia. This Agreement sets forth the 
parties' obligations and commitments with regard to planning and 
constructing a replacement airport and outlines the process the parties 
will undertake to decommission 6A2 in the future. Prior to 
decommissioning 6A2, the FAA will provide notice and an opportunity for 
public comment as required by 49 U.S.C. 47107(h)(2).
    On September 26, 2014, the Federal Aviation Administration added 
the proposed Griffin-Spalding County Replacement Airport to its 
National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems. The runway length and 
airport design at the existing airport are insufficient to support 
aviation needs. The sponsor evaluated all reasonable and practicable 
alternatives to address these constraints and proposed construction of 
the replacement airport to the FAA. The FAA issued a Finding of No 
Significant Impact/Record of Decision for the proposed replacement 
airport on March 12, 2013.
    Any person may inspect, by appointment, the Agreement in person at 
the FAA office listed above under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
    In addition, any person may, upon appointment and request, inspect 
the Agreement, notice and other documents determined by the FAA to be 
related to the Agreement in person at the Griffin-Spalding County 
Airport, 1035 Hill Street, Griffin, GA 30224.

    Issued in College Park, Georgia, on November 5, 2014.
