SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA invites public comment on the 
request to release approximately 2.4 acres of airport property at the 
Malden Regional Airport & Industrial Airport (MAW) under the provisions 
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(h)(2). On December 20, 2010, the Mayor of the City 
of Malden and the Airport Manager at the Malden Regional Airport 
requested from the FAA that approximately 2.4 acres of property be 
released for sale to Murphy Argo Investments. On Sept. 16, 2011, the 
FAA determined that the request to release property at Malden Regional 
Airport and Industrial Park (MAW) 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:
    Malden Regional Airport and Industrial Park (MAW) is proposing the 
release of two parcels, one of 0.8 acres and another of 1.6 acres, for 
a total of 2.4 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 Malden Regional Airport and Industrial Park (MAW) being changed 
from aeronautical to nonaeronautical use and release the lands from the 
conditions of the AIP Grant Agreement Grant Assurances. 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 facilities at the Malden Regional Airport and Industrial Park.
    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 Malden Regional Airport and 
Industrial Park.

    Issued in Kansas City, MO, on October 31, 2011.
Jim A. Johnson,
Manager, Airports Division.
