This notice informs the public that the City of Mesquite, in
coordination with the FAA, submitted an application to both renew and
amend its existing airport lease (AZA-24176) to comply with FAA
requirements. The proposal is includes relinquishing 0.74 acres of the
lease in an area northeast of the airport, referred to as the NAV AID
site, which is no longer needed, and leasing an additional 0.76 acres
to the north and south of the current lease area in order to move the
existing perimeter fence outside of the obstacle-free zone. This would
bring the total acreage of the leased area to approximately 6.005
acres.
Issuance of the lease is in accordance with the Arizona Strip
Resource Management Plan (RMP), Decision No. MA-LR-06. Individual land
use authorizations (rights-of-way, permits, leases, easements) will be
evaluated on a case-by-case basis in accordance with other RMP
provisions and compliance with the requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act.
This notice segregates the above-described public lands from
operation of the public land laws, including the mining laws. The
segregative effect will end upon issuance of the lease or on May 29,
2019, whichever occurs first.
Application Comments: Interested parties may submit comments
regarding the specific use proposed in the application or any other
factor not directly related to the suitability of the lands for an
airport lease. The BLM Arizona State Director will review any adverse
comments. In the absence of any adverse comments, the decision will
become final. The lands will not be offered for lease until a
determination of significance and Decision Record have been signed for
the completed Environmental Assessment.
Before including your address, phone number, email address, or
other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be
aware that your entire comment--including your personal identifying
information--may be made available to the public at any time. While you
can ask in your comment to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be
able to do so.
Authority: 43 CFR 2911.

Field Manager.
