SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

[top] The FAA invites public comment on the request to release two tracts of land: Parcel 64 is 4.51 acres and parcel 67 is 2.06 acres

of airport property at the Ottumwa Regional Airport (OTM) under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47107(h)(2). Representatives of the Sponsor requested a release from the FAA to sell two tracts of land, 4.51 acres and 2.06 acres respectively. Both parcels will be developed for light industrial use. The FAA determined the request to release property at the Ottumwa Regional Airport (OTM) submitted by the Sponsor meets the procedural requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration and the 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:

The Ottumwa Regional Airport (OTM) is proposing the release of two airport parcels containing 4.51 acres and 2.06 acres. 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 Ottumwa Regional Airport (OTM) 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 dispose of 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, 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 Ottumwa City Hall.

Issued in Kansas City, MO, on January 18, 2022.

James A. Johnson,

Director, FAA Central Region, Airports Division.
