The following is a brief overview of the request: The City of Fresno, California requested a release from grant assurance obligations for approximately 16.02 acres of airport land to allow for its sale. The property was originally acquired as two separate parcels with federal funding and airport generated funds. Approximately 5.32 Acres were acquired under Airport Development Aid Program (ADAP) grant No. 6–06– 0087–06 and 10.70 acres of the land was acquired from the State of California with airport generated funds. Due to its location and condition, the property cannot be used for airport purposes. The property previously contained homes that have been removed and the land cleared. The land is presently kept vacant and is unimproved and does not have income generating potential. The planned land use is for water recharge, ponding basin, and passive wetlands. The property will be kept mitigated to ensure that its passive use does not interfere with airport operations. The release will allow 16.02 acres to be sold to CALTRANS. The sale price will be based on an upward adjusted appraised market value of $762,450. The sale proceeds will be deposited in the airport account. The Fresno Yosemite International Airport will be properly compensated, thereby serving the interests of civil aviation.

You may learn more about the proposed NHTSA Guidelines by visiting the Department of Transportation’s Web site on distracted driving, Distraction.gov, NHTSA’s Web site, www.nhtsa.gov, or by searching the public docket (NHTSA–2010–0053) at www.regulations.gov. The proposed NHTSA Guidelines are meant to promote safety by discouraging the introduction of excessively distracting devices in vehicles. These NHTSA Guidelines, which are voluntary, apply to communications, entertainment, information gathering, and navigation devices or functions that are not required to operate the vehicle safely and that are operated by the driver through visual-manual means (meaning the driver looking at a device, manipulating a device-related control with the driver’s hand, and watching for visual feedback). The proposed NHTSA Guidelines list certain secondary, non-driving related tasks that, based on NHTSA’s research, are believed by the agency to interfere inherently with a driver’s ability to safely control the vehicle. The Guidelines recommend that those invehicle devices be designed so that they cannot be used by the driver to perform such tasks while the driver is driving. For all other secondary, non-drivingrelated visual-manual tasks, the NHTSA Guidelines specify a test method for measuring the impact of task performance while driving on driving safety and time-based acceptance criteria for assessing whether a task interferes too much with driver attention to be suitable to perform while driving. If a task does not meet the acceptance criteria, the NHTSA Guidelines recommend that in-vehicle devices be designed so that the task cannot be performed by the driver while driving. In addition to identifying inherently distracting tasks and providing a means for measuring and evaluating the level of distraction associated with other nondriving-related tasks, the NHTSA Guidelines set forth several design recommendations for in-vehicle devices SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E:\FR\FM\02MRN1.SGM 02MRN1
