DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION The FAA invites public comment on the request to release approximately 4.00+ acres of airport property at Strother Field (WLD) under the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 47107(h)(2). On March 2, 2016, the Airport Manager of Strother Field requested from the FAA that approximately 4.00+ acres of property be released for sale to the Four County Medical Health Center. On April 12, 2016, the FAA determined that the request to release property at Strother Field (WLD) 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: Strother Field (WLD) is proposing the release of a parcel, totaling 4.00+ acres. 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 Strother Field (WLD) being changed from aeronautical to nonaeronautical use and release the surface lands from the conditions of the AIP Grant Agreement Grant Assurances, but retaining any mineral rights. 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 Strother Field wastewater system. Any person may inspect, by appointment, the request in person at the FAA office listed above under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. In addition, any person may, upon appointment and request, inspect the application, notice and other documents determined by the FAA to be related to the application in person at Strother Field.

FRA assigned the petition Docket Number FRA–2016– 0029. Applicant: Canadian Pacific Railway, Ms. Cindy Ingram, Director S&C Maintenance—Southern Region, 3420 Miller Avenue, Davenport, IA 52802. CP seeks approval of the discontinuance of the automatic block signal system in the Nahant Yard area from Milepost (MP) 194 to MP 198.6. The system spans two subdivisions: The Davenport Subdivision from MP 194 to MP 195.5 and the Ottumwa Subdivision from MP 195.51 to MP198.6, on the Quad Cities Division in Nahant, IA. The reason for the request is to relieve congestion caused by the authority of the yard limits extending south of the current absolute signal located at MP 196.6. The block south of the absolute signal at MP 196.6, being occupied by yard operations, prevents the dispatcher from clearing signals northward at Control Point Montpelier at MP 205.5. This requires trains to stop while occupying highway-rail grade crossings and hand-line their route before proceeding northward. With this discontinuance, the signals at MP 194 and MP 194.18 will be removed. The signals at MP196.5–6 will be relocated to MP 198.6–7, at the south end of Nahant Yard limits with a distant signal installed. The portion of track from MP193.0 to MP198.6 will be governed under the General Code of Operating Rules, Rule 6.13, Yard Limits, to protect train movements. A copy of the petition, as well as any written communications concerning the PO 00000 Frm 00091 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 petition, is available for review online at www.regulations.gov and in person at the U.S. Department of Transportation’s (DOT) Docket Operations Facility, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., W12–140, Washington, DC 20590. The Docket Operations Facility is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal Holidays. Interested parties are invited to participate in these proceedings by submitting written views, data, or comments. FRA does not anticipate scheduling a public hearing in connection with these proceedings since the facts do not appear to warrant a hearing. If any interested party desires an opportunity for oral comment, they should notify FRA, in writing, before the end of the comment period and specify the basis for their request. All communications concerning these proceedings should identify the appropriate docket number and may be submitted by any of the following methods: • Web site: https:// www.regulations.gov. Follow the online instructions for submitting comments. • Fax: 202–493–2251. • Mail: Docket Operations Facility, U.S. Department of Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., W12–140, Washington, DC 20590. • Hand Delivery: 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Room W12–140, Washington, DC 20590, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal Holidays. Communications received by June 6, 2016 will be considered by FRA before final action is taken. Comments received after that date will be considered as far as practicable. Anyone is able to search the electronic form of any written communications and comments received into any of our dockets by the name of the individual submitting the comment (or signing the document, if submitted on behalf of an association, business, labor union, etc.). In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(c), DOT solicits comments from the public to better inform its processes. DOT posts these comments, without edit, including any personal information the commenter provides, to www.regulations.gov, as described in the system of records notice (DOT/ALL– 14 FDMS), which can be reviewed at www.dot.gov/privacy.
