lating to the project. Such areas or any por-
tion thereof will be made available as pro-
vided herein within 4 months after receipt of
written requests from the FAA.
28.
Fee and rental structure.
The airport op-
erator or owner will maintain a fee and rent-
al structure for the facilities and services
being provided the airport users which will
make the Airport as self-sustaining as pos-
sible under the circumstances existing at the
Airport, taking into account such factors as
the volume of traffic and economy of collec-
tion.
29.
Reports to FAA.
The Sponsor will fur-
nish the FAA with such annual or special
airport financial and operational reports as
may be reasonably requested. Such reports
may be submitted on forms furnished by the
FAA, or may be submitted in such manner as
the Sponsor elects so long as the essential
data are furnished. The Airport and all air-
port records and documents affecting the
Airport, including deeds, leases, operation
and use agreements, regulations, and other
instruments, will be made available of in-
spection and audit by the Secretary and the
Comptroller General of the United States, or
their duly authorized representatives, upon
reasonable request. The Sponsor will furnish

fice, upon request, a true copy of any such
document.
30.
System of accounting.
All project ac-
counts and records will be kept in accord-
ance with a standard system of accounting if
so prescribed by the Secretary.
31.
Interfering right.
If at any time it is de-
termined by the FAA that there is any out-
standing right or claim of right in or to the
Airport property, other than those set forth
in Part II of the Application for Federal As-
sistance, the existence of which creates an
undue risk of interference with the operation
of the Airport or the performance of the cov-
enants of this part, the sponsor will acquire,
extinguish, or modify such right or claim of
right in a manner acceptable to the FAA.
32.
Performance obligation.
The Sponsor will
not enter into any transaction which would
operate to deprive it of any of the rights and
powers necessary to perform any or all of the
covenants made herein, unless by such trans-
action the obligation to perform all such
covenants is assumed by another public
agency found by the FAA to be eligible under
the Act and Regulations to assume such obli-
gations and having the power, authority, and
financial resources to carry out all such obli-
gations. If an arrangement is made for man-
agement or operation of the Airport by any
agency or person other than the Sponsor or
an employee of the Sponsor, the Sponsor will
reserve sufficient rights and authority to in-
sure that the Airport will be operated and
maintained in accordance with the Act, the
Regulations, and these covenants.
33.
Meaning of terms.
Unless the context
otherwise requires, all terms used in these
covenants which are defined in the Act and
the Regulations shall have the meanings as-
signed to them therein.
