NOTICES

Public Notice for Waiver of Aeronautical Land-Use Assurance [FR DOC# 2013-
16661] SUMMARY: The FAA is considering a proposal to change 4.78 acres of
airport land from aeronautical use to non-aeronautical use and to authorize
the sale of airport property located at Bismarck Municipal Airport,
Bismarck, North Dakota. The property’s location for Parcel A is a
triangular parcel of 3.68 acres located west of the street intersection of
Airway Avenue and Rifle Range Drive; and the Parcel B is a triangular
parcel of 1.1 acres located north of the street intersection of Airway
Avenue and Rifle Range Drive within the City of Bismarck, ND. The
property’s existing aeronautical use is grasslands located outside the
approach and departure surfaces of Runway 21 at the Bismarck Municipal
Airport, Bismarck, ND. Currently, ownership of the property provides for
protection of FAR Part 77 surfaces and compatible land use which would
continue to be protected with deed restrictions required in the transfer of
land ownership. The proposed non- aeronautical use of the property will
likely be zoned industrial however, the exact usage has not been
determined. The property is no longer needed for aeronautical use.

Public Notice for Waiver of Aeronautical Land-Use Assurance [FR DOC# 2013-
16662] SUMMARY: The FAA is considering a proposal to change approximately
0.242 acres of airport land consisting of two separate parcels from
aeronautical use to non-aeronautical use, and to authorize the transfer of
these airport properties located at Wittman Regional Airport, to the City
of Oshkosh (City) in exchange for 4.764 acres owned by the City. The two
parcels of airport land which are currently primarily used as roadway
right-of-way and ditches are proposed for non-aeronautical uses. These
parcels are no longer needed for aeronautical use. Cul-de- sacs are
proposed to be built on each property and the land swapped with the City of
Oshkosh in exchange for 4.764 acres of land within two existing public road
rights-of-way (portions of West Waukau Avenue and Knapp Street). The lands
the airport will receive were vacated by the City of Oshkosh in May 2013
and access will be maintained to adjacent uses by private streets within
fenced airport property. A portion of airport property for the proposed
West Waukau Avenue cul-de-sac has a portable building used by the Winnebago
Sheriff’s Department during EAA AirVenture. The building will be shifted
140 feet north to remain on airport property.

 

RULES

Amendment of Class E Airspace; Worthington, MN [FR DOC# 2013-16441]
SUMMARY: This action amends Class E airspace at Worthington, MN. Additional
controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate new Area Navigation (RNAV)
Standard Instrument Approach Procedures at Worthington Municipal Airport.
This action enhances the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rule
(IFR) operations at the airport. Geographic coordinates of the airport are
also updated.

Modification of VOR Federal Airway V-345 in the Vicinity of Ashland, WI [FR
DOC# 2013-16443] SUMMARY: This action modifies VHF Omnidirectional Range
(VOR) Federal airway V-345 in the vicinity of Ashland, WI. The Ashland, WI,
VOR Distance Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME) navigation aid, which forms the
northern end point of the airway, has been out of service for over ten
months and is scheduled to be decommissioned. The FAA is removing the
portion of V-345 affected by the loss of service by the Ashland, WI,
VOR/DME.

Special Conditions: Embraer S.A. Model EMB-550 Airplanes, Sudden Engine
Stoppage [FR DOC# 2013-16596] SUMMARY: These special conditions are issued
for the Embraer Model EMB- 550 airplane. This airplane has novel or unusual
design features as compared to the state of technology envisioned in the
airworthiness standards for transport-category airplanes. These design
features include engine size and the potential torque loads imposed by
sudden engine stoppage. The applicable airworthiness regulations do not
contain adequate or appropriate safety standards for this design feature.
These special conditions contain the additional safety standards that the
Administrator considers necessary to establish a level of safety equivalent
to that established by the existing airworthiness standards.
