SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA invites public comment on the 
request to release approximately 235 acres of property known as the Air 
Park South Airport (2K2) under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47107(h)(2). 
On September 25, 2007, the Director of Aviation at the Springfield-
Branson National Airport notified the FAA that because of the Sponsor's 
inability to acquire land necessary to safely and effectively operate 
the airport, he requested full release of the affected property from 
Federal obligations. On March 16, 2010, the FAA determined that the 
request to release property at Air Park South Airport (2K2) submitted 
by the Sponsor meets the procedural requirements of the Federal 
Aviation Administration. The FAA may approve the request, in whole or 
in part, no sooner than thirty days after the publication of this 
Notice.
    The following is a brief overview of the request:
    Air Park South Airport (2K2) is proposing the release of the entire 
airport property and associated facilities. The release of land is 
necessary to comply with Federal Aviation Administration Grant 
Assurances that do not allow Federally acquired airport property to be 
used for non-aviation purposes. The sale and permanent abandonment of 
the subject property will result in the lands of the Air Park South 
Airport (2K2) being changed from aeronautical to nonaeronautical use 
and release the lands from the conditions of the AlP Grant Agreement 
Grant Assurances. In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 47107(c)(2)(B)(i) and 
(iii), the airport will receive fair market value for the property, 
which will be subsequently reinvested in another eligible airport 
improvement project for general aviation facilities at the Springfield-
Branson National Airport.
    Any person may inspect, by appointment, the request in person at 
the FAA office listed above under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. In 
addition, any person may, upon appointment and request, inspect the

application, notice and other documents determined by the FAA to be 
related to the application in person at the Springfield-Branson 
National Airport.

    Issued in Kansas City, MO, on September 1, 2010.

Manager, Airports Division.
