No land shall be sold as part of this land release request. The property is situated on the southeast corner of the airport. The Emerson Phares Building is an 80′ x 146′ brick and mortar building situated on 2.03 acres. This building was built in 1988 for the purpose of housing an FAA Flight Service Station. It is no longer needed by the FAA for that purpose. The release is being requested in order to re-classify the building as nonaeronautical use for the purpose of entering into a long term lease agreement with the Randolph County Commission. The lease term will be for a minimum of 30 years to utilize the building as a 911 Emergency Services Communications Center. The release of the property to facilitate the reclassification of the building will result in a direct benefit to the Airport Authority which will be realized in the form of monetary gain from the collection of rental/lease fees. The 2.03 acre area requested to be designated as non-aeronautical is unable to be utilized for aviation purposes because it is located outside the airport perimeter fence, and airside operations area, and is inaccessible by aircraft. The subject PO 00000 Frm 00115 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 acreage is currently being used as rental property and once was occupied by an FAA Flight Service Station. The purpose of this request is to permanently change the use of the property given there is no potential for future aviation use, as demonstrated by the Airport Layout Plan. Subsequent to the implementation of the proposed change in use, rents received by the airport from this property must be used in accordance with FAA’s Policy and Procedures Concerning the Use of Airport Revenue, published in the Federal Register on February 16, 1999.

Exemption--in Flathead County, Mont.

    On June 5, 2017, Mission Mountain Railroad, L.L.C. (MMT), filed 
with the Board a petition under 49 U.S.C. 10502 for exemption from the 
prior approval requirements of 49 U.S.C. 10903 to discontinue its lease 
operations over approximately 2.7 miles of rail line owned by BNSF 
Railway Company (BNSF) in Flathead County, Mont. (the Line). The Line 
is located from milepost 1225.19 to milepost 1227.58 and from milepost 
1226.91 to Engineering Station 189+36 (milepost 1227.10) in Kalispell,

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ BNSF is seeking to abandon the Line in BNSF Railway--
Abandonment Exemption--in Flathead County, Mont., Docket No. AB 6 
(Sub-No. 495X). According to MMT, the customers do not oppose the 
abandonment.

    MMT states that based on information in BNSF's possession, the Line 
does not contain any federally granted rights-of-way. It states that 
any documentation in MMT's possession will be made available to those 
requesting it.
    MMT states that it began operating over the Line in December 2004 
\2\ and since that time has provided service to two customers located 
on the Line. MMT represents that the two customers on the Line do not 
oppose the discontinuance of service because they will be relocated to 
Glacier Rail Park.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ MMT states that it acquired authority to lease a line of 
rail including the Line in January 2005. See Mission Mountain R.R.--

proceeding pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 10502(b). A final decision will be

proceeding, trail use/rail banking and

public use conditions are not appropriate. Because environmental review 
is being conducted in the BNSF abandonment proceeding in Docket No. AB 
6 (Sub-No. 495X), this discontinuance does not require an environmental 
review.
    Any offer of financial assistance (OFA) under 49 CFR 1152.27(b)(2) 
to subsidize continued rail service will be due no later than October 
2, 2017, or 10 days after service of a decision granting the petition
