request to release and sell property at the Malden Regional Airport & 
Industrial Park (MAW) submitted by the Sponsor meets the procedural 
requirements of the FAA and the release and sale 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:
    The Malden Regional Airport & Industrial Park (MAW) is proposing 
the release from obligations and sale of a 1.42 acre parcel of airport 
property. 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 of the subject property will result in the land at the Malden 
Regional Airport & Industrial Park (MAW) 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 order to sell the land. 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 use.
    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 request an appointment to inspect the 
application, notice and other documents determined by the FAA to be 
related to the application in person at the Malden City Hall.

    Issued in Kansas City, MO, on July 17, 2023.

Director, FAA Central Region, Airports Division.
