Federal Aviation Administration, DOT 

§ 151.24 

request on FAA Form 5100–3, accom-
panied by— 

(1) The sponsor’s written statement 

as to whether the proposed project in-
volves the displacement and relocation 
of persons residing on land physically 
acquired or to be acquired for the 
project development; and 

(2) The sponsor’s written assurance, 

if the project involves displacement 
and relocation of such persons, that 
adequate replacement housing will be 
available or provided for (built, if nec-
essary), without regard to their race, 
color, religion, sex, or national origin, 
before the execution of a grant agree-
ment for the project. 

(b) A proposed project is selected for 

inclusion in a program only if the spon-
sor has submitted a written assurance 
when required by paragraph (a)(2) of 
this section, or if the Administrator 
has determined that the project does 
not involve the displacement and relo-
cation of persons residing on land to be 
physically acquired or to be acquired 
for the project development. If the Ad-
ministrator selects a proposed project 
for inclusion in a program, a tentative 
allocation of funds is made for it and 
the sponsor is notified of the alloca-
tion. The tentative allocation may be 
withdrawn if the sponsor fails to sub-
mit an acceptable project application 
as provided in paragraph (c) of this sec-
tion or fails to proceed diligently with 
the project, or if adequate replacement 
housing is not available or provided for 
in accordance with a written assurance 
when required by paragraph (a)(2) of 
this section. 

(c) As soon as practicable after re-

ceiving notice of the tentative alloca-
tion, the sponsor must submit a project 
application on FAA Form 1624 to the 
Area Manager, without changing the 
language of the form, unless the 
change is approved in advance by the 
Administrator. In the case of a joint 
project, each sponsor executes only 
those provisions of the project applica-
tion that apply to it. A sponsor who 
has executed a grant agreement for a 
project for the development of an air-
port under the Program, may, in the 
Administrator’s discretion, submit ad-
ditional project applications on FAA 

Form 1624 for further development of 
that airport.

Transportation; Federal Airport Act, as

§ 151.23 Procedures: Application; fund-

ing information. 

Each sponsor must state in its appli-

cation that it has on hand, or show 
that it can obtain as needed, funds to 
pay all estimated costs of the proposed 
project that are not borne by the 
United States or by another sponsor. If 
any of the funds are to be furnished to 
a sponsor, or used to pay project costs 
on behalf of a sponsor, by a State agen-
cy or any other public agency that is 
not a sponsor of the project, that agen-
cy may, instead of the sponsor, submit 
evidence that the funds will be pro-
vided if the project is approved.

amended by Amdt. 151–34, 34 FR 12883, Aug. 8, 
1969] 

§ 151.24 Procedures: Application; infor-

mation on estimated project costs. 

(a) If any part of the estimated 

project costs consists of the value of 
donated land, labor, materials, or 
equipment, or of the value of a prop-
erty interest in land acquired at a cost 
that (as represented by the sponsor) is 
not the actual cost or the amount of an 
award in eminent domain proceedings, 
the sponsor must so state in the appli-
cation, indicating the nature of the do-
nation or other transaction and the 
value it places on it. 

(b) If, after the grant agreement is 

executed and before the final payment 
of the allowable project costs is made 
under § 151.63, it appears that the spon-
sor inadvertently or unknowingly 
failed to comply with paragraph (a) of 
this section as to any item, the Admin-
istrator— 

(1) Makes or obtains an appraisal of 

the item, and if the appraised value is 
less than the value placed on the item 
in the project application, notifies the 
sponsor that it may, within a stated 

692 

14 CFR Ch. I (1–1–24 Edition) 

§ 151.25 

time, ask in writing for reconsider-
ation of the appraisal and submit 
statements of pertinent facts and opin-
ion; and 

(2) Adjusts the U.S. share of the 

project costs to reflect any decrease in 
value of the item below that stated in 
the project application. 

[Amdt. 151–34, 34 FR 12883, Aug. 8, 1969] 

§ 151.25 Procedures: Application; infor-

mation as to property interests. 

(a) Each sponsor must state in its ap-

plication all of the property interests 
that he holds in the lands to be devel-
oped or used as part of, or in connec-
tion with, the airport as it will be when 
the project is completed. Each project 
application contains a covenant on the 
part of the sponsor to acquire, before 
starting construction work, or within a 
reasonable time if not needed for the 
construction, property interests satis-
factory to the Administrator in all the 
lands in which it does not hold those 
property interests at the time it sub-
mits the application. In the case of a 
joint project, any one or more of the 
sponsors may hold or acquire the nec-
essary property interests. In such a 
case, each sponsor may show on its ap-
plication only those property interests 
that it holds or is to acquire. 

(b) Each sponsor of a project must 

send with its application a property 
map (designated as Exhibit A) or incor-
porate such a map by reference to one 
in a previous application that was ap-
proved. The sponsor must clearly iden-
tify on the map all property interests 
required in paragraph (a) of this sec-
tion, showing prior and proposed acqui-
sitions for which United States aid is 
requested under the project. 

(c) For the purposes of paragraphs (a) 

and (b) of this section, the property in-
terest that the sponsor must have or 
agree to obtain, is— 

(1) Title free and clear of any rever-

sionary interest, lien, easement, lease, 
or other encumbrance that, in the 
opinion of the Administrator, would 
create an undue risk that it might de-
prive the sponsor of possession or con-
trol, interfere with its use for public 
airport purposes, or make it impossible 
for the sponsor to carry out the agree-
ments and covenants in the applica-
tion; 

(2) A lease of not less than 20 years 

granted to the sponsor by another pub-
lic agency that has title as described in 
paragraph (c)(1) of this section, on 
terms that the Administrator considers 
satisfactory; or 

(3) In the case of an offsite area an 

agreement, easement, leasehold, or 
other right or property interest that, 
in the Administrator’s opinion, pro-
vides reasonable assurance that the 
sponsor will not be deprived of its right 
to use the land for the intended pur-
pose during the period necessary to 
meet the requirements of the grant 
agreement. 

(d) For the purposes of this section, 

the word ‘‘land’’ includes landing 
areas, building areas, runway clear 
zones, clearways and approach zones, 
and areas required for offsite construc-
tion, entrance roads, drainage, protec-
tion of approaches, installation of air 
navigation facilities, or other airport 
purposes. 

§ 151.26 Procedures: Applications; 

compatible land use information; 

consideration of local community 

interest; relocation of displaced 

persons. 

(a) Each sponsor must state in its ap-

plication the action that it has taken 
to restrict the use of land adjacent to 
or in the immediate vicinity of the air-
port to activities and purposes compat-
ible with normal airport operations in-
cluding landing and take-off of air-
craft. The sponsor’s statement must in-
clude information on— 

(1) Any property interests (such as 

airspace easements or title to airspace) 
acquired by the sponsor to assure com-
patible land use, or to protect or con-
trol aerial approaches; 

(2) Any zoning laws enacted or in 

force restricting the use of land adja-
cent to or in the vicinity of the airport, 
or assuring protection or control of 
aerial approaches, whether or not en-
acted by the sponsor; and 

(3) Any action taken by the sponsor 

to induce the appropriate government 
authority to enact zoning laws re-
stricting the use of land adjacent to or 
in the vicinity of the airport, or assur-
ing protection or control of aerial ap-
proaches, when the sponsor lacks the 
power to zone the land.
