SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA invites public comment on the 
request to release 38.26 acres of airport property at Perry-Houston 
County Airport (PXE) under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47107(h)(2).
    On March 16, 2018, the Georgia Department of Transportation 
Aviation Program Manager, on behalf of the Perry-Houston County Airport 
Authority, requested the FAA release 38.26 acres of airport property 
for an equal 38.26 acres of adjacent land at same fair market value 
(FMV) cost. The land to be released by the airport authority will be 
used as farmland while the land to be acquired by the airport authority 
will be used for future airport development as needed. FAA has 
determined that the proposed property release at Perry-Houston County 
Airport (PXE), as submitted by Perry-Houston County Airport Authority, 
meets the procedural requirements of the Federal Aviation 
Administration and release of the property does not and will not impact 
future aviation needs at the airport. 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:
    Perry-Houston County Airport (PXE) is proposing the release of 
38.26 acres of airport property to be used for farmland and equal to 
the acquisition of contiguous, adjacent 38.26 acres of land for future 
aviation development as needed. 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. Release of the airport owned land will result in the 
land at Perry-Houston County Airport (PXE) being changed from 
aeronautical to non-aeronautical use and release the lands from the 
conditions of the Airport Improvement Program Grant Agreement Grant 
Assurances. In accordance with 49 U.S.C. Sec.  47107(c)(2)(B)(i) and 
(iii), the airport will transfer the equal fair market value properties 
between owners the parties.
    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 Perry-Houston County Airport.

    Issued in Atlanta, GA, on July 24, 2018.
Larry F. Clark,
Manager, Atlanta Airports District Office.
