§ 151.91
(2) It was acquired to provide an air-
port entrance road and was not, before
the existence of the airport, a public
thoroughfare;
(3) The entrance road is intended
only as a way in and out of the airport;
and
(4) The entrance road extends only to
the nearest public highway, road, or
street.
(c) An entrance road may be joined to
an existing highway or street with a
normal fillet connection. However, ac-
celeration-deceleration strips or grade
separations are not eligible.
(d) Offsite road or street relocation
needed to allow airport development or
to remove an obstruction, and is not
for entrance road purposes, is eligible.
(e) Appendix G sets forth typical eli-
gible and ineligible items of road con-
struction covered by this section.
§ 151.91 Removal of obstructions.
(a) The removal or relocation, or
both, of obstructions, as defined in
Technical Standard Order N18 is eligi-
ble under the Program in cases where
definite arrangements are made to pre-
vent the obstruction from being recre-
ated. In a case where removal is not
feasible, the cost of marking or light-
ing it is eligible. The removal and relo-
cation of structures necessary for es-
sential airport development is eligible.
The removal of structures that are not
obstructions under § 77.23 of this chap-
ter as applied to § 77.27 of this chapter
are eligible when they are located
within a runway clear zone.
(b) The removal and relocation of an
airport hangar that is an airport haz-
ard (as described in § 151.39(b)) is eligi-
ble, if the reerected hangar will be sub-
stantially identical to the disassem-
bled one.
(c) Whenever a hangar must be relo-
cated (either for clearance of the site
for other airport development or to re-
move a hazard) and the existing struc-
ture is to be relocated with or without
disassembly, the cost of the relocation
is an eligible item of project costs, in-
cluding costs incidental to the reloca-
tion such as necessary footings and
floors. However, if the existing struc-
ture is to be demolished and a new
hangar is to be built, only the cost of
demolishing the existing hangar is an
eligible item.

§ 151.93 Buildings; utilities; sidewalks;
parking areas; and landscaping.
(a) Only buildings or parts of build-
ings intended to house facilities or ac-
tivities directly related to the safety of
persons at the airport, including fire
and rescue equipment buildings, are el-
igible items under the Federal-aid Air-
port Program. To the extent they are
necessary to house snow removal and
abrasive spreading equipment, and to
provide minimum protection for abra-
sive materials, field maintenance
equipment buildings are eligible items
in any airport development project for
an airport in a location having a mean
daily minimum temperature of zero de-
grees Fahrenheit, or less, for at least 20
days each year for the 5 years pre-
ceding the year when Federal aid is re-
quested under § 151.21(a), based on the
statistics of the U.S. Department of
Commerce Weather Bureau if avail-
able, or other evidence satisfactory to
the Administrator.
(b) Airport utility construction, in-
stallation, and connection are eligible
under the Federal-aid Airport Program
as follows:
(1) An airport utility serving only eli-
gible areas and facilities is eligible;
and
(2) An airport utility serving both el-
igible and ineligible airport areas and
facilities is eligible only to the extent
of the additional cost of providing the
capacity needed for eligible areas and
facilities over and above the capacity
necessary for the ineligible areas and
facilities.
However, a water system is eligible
only to the extent necessary to provide
fire protection for aircraft operations,
and to provide water for a fire and res-
cue equipment building.
(c) No part of the constructing, alter-
ing, or repairing (including grading,
drainage, and other site preparation
work) of a facility or area that is to be
used as a public parking facility for
passenger automobiles is eligible for
inclusion in a project.
