Notice of Intent of Waiver With Respect to Land; Prairie Du Chien 
Municipal Airport, Prairie Du Chien, WI

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The FAA is considering a proposal to change 0.38 acres of 
Clear Zone Easement contained in Parcel 17 to Avigation Easement in 
exchange for converting 1.23 acres of Avigation Easement contained in 
Parcel 20 to Clear Zone Easement. Both Parcel 17 and Parcel 20 share a 
common boundary and are owned by Crossing Rivers Health Center located 
at Prairie du Chien Municipal Airport, Prairie du Chien, WI. The 
proposed release of 0.38 acres of Clear Zone Easement to Avigation 
Easement is not in the Runway Protection Zone (RPZ). Of the easement 
being converted to Clear Zone from Avigation Easement in exchange for 
the release, 0.89 acres (of the 1.23 acres) lies in the RPZ, which 
brings that portion of the RPZ into conformance with FAA standards and 
policies.
    The release of 0.38 acres from Clear Zone Easement to Avigation 
Easement is required to build an Access Road to the Crossing Rivers 
Health Center and install a sign for the hospital. The conversion from 
Clear Zone Easement to Avigation Easement will not result in any impact 
to surfaces protected by Part 77 or airport design surfaces. The Clear 
Zone Easement was originally purchased to enable the Airport to ensure 
airport compatible development. The proposed future use of 0.38 acres 
of the land as an access road will prevent any incompatible development 
of the surrounding area in the RPZ.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before January 4, 2019.

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.
    The Clear Zone Easement (within Parcel 17) is owned by the City of 
Prairie du Chien. The easement was originally purchased to ensure 
airport compatible development.
    Based on current Fair Market Value of Clear Zone Easement and 
Avigation Easement being released and acquired in exchange, the net 
gain to the airport in value of easements is $11,249.00.
    This notice announces that the FAA is considering the release of 
the subject airport property at the Prairie du Chien Municipal Airport, 
Prairie du Chien, WI from federal easement covenants, subject to a 
reservation for continuing right of flight as well as restrictions on 
the released property as required in FAA Order 5190.6B section 22.16.

Approval does not constitute a commitment by the FAA to financially 
assist in the disposal of the subject airport property nor a 
determination of eligibility for grant-in-aid funding from the FAA.
