The request to release property may be reviewed, by appointment, in person at this same location. The FAA invites public comment on the request to release approximately 15.9323± acres of airport property at The Des Moines International Airport (DSM) under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47107(h)(2). On February 19, 2015, the Director of Engineering & Planning at The Des Moines International Airport requested from the FAA that approximately 15.9323± acres of property be released for sale to the Electro Management Corporation for use as a distribution warehouse consistent with the zoning ordinances of the City. On April 5, 2016, the FAA determined that the request to release property at The Des Moines International Airport (DSM) submitted by the Sponsor meets the procedural requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration and the release of the property does not and will not impact future aviation needs at the airport. The FAA may approve the request, in whole or in part, no sooner than thirty days after the publication of this notice. The following is a brief overview of the request: The Des Moines International Airport (DSM) is proposing the release of airport property totaling 15.9323 acres, more or less. This land is to be used for a distribution warehouse for the Electro Management Corporation. The release of land is necessary to comply with Federal Aviation Administration Grant Assurances that do not allow federally acquired airport property to be used for non-aviation purposes. The sale of the subject property will result in the land at The Des Moines International Airport (DSM) being changed from aeronautical to non-aeronautical use and release the lands from the conditions of the Airport Improvement Program Grant Agreement Grant Assurances. In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 47107(c)(2)(B)(i) and (iii), the airport will receive fair market value for the property, which will be subsequently reinvested in another eligible airport improvement project for general aviation facilities at The Des Moines International Airport.
