    On July 28, 2009, the FAA and the Pennsylvania Department of 
Transportation Bureau of Aviation determined that the request to 
release property at the Punxsutawney Municipal Airport submitted by the 
Punxsutawney Municipal Airport Authority (Authority) met the procedural 
requirements.
    The following is a brief overview of the request:
    The Punxsutawney Municipal Airport Authority requests the release 
of 30.4248 acres of non-aeronautical airport property to Frank M. 
Amundson and Mary Ann Amundson. The property was acquired without 
Federal participation and is currently vacant. The property is located 
on the Easterly corner of Ridgmont Road and Clawson Street. The purpose 
of this release is to allow the Punxsutawney Municipal Airport 
Authority (Authority) to exchange the subject land that does not

[[Page 54118]]

serve any aeronautical purpose at the airport. In exchange for the 
subject land, Amundson will transfer the terminal building and hangar 
to the Authority, which facilities are presently located at the 
Airport. The exchange will allow the Authority to gain greater control 
of the facilities located on dedicated airport property. There are no 
impacts to the Airport and the land is not needed for airport 
development as shown on the Airport Layout Plan. There are no proceeds 
expected in connection with the Transfer. Any proceeds from the sale of 
property are to be used for the capital and operating costs of the 
airport.
    Any person may inspect the request by appointment at the FAA office 
address listed above. Interested persons are invited to comment on the 
proposed release from obligations. All comments will be considered by 
the FAA to the extent practicable.

    Issued in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, October 13, 2009.

Manager, Harrisburg Airports District Office.
