Download as PDF 53538 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 168 / Wednesday, August 31, 2022 / Notices The FAA proposes to rule and invites public comment on the application for a release of approximately 0.12 acres of federally obligated airport property at Francis S. Gabreski Airport, Southampton, New York, from both the Federal Surplus Property obligations contained in the July 12, 1972 Quitclaim Deed, and the Grant Assurance obligations. This acreage is composed of one parcel of land that was transferred from the United States of America to the County of Suffolk under the provisions of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 and the Surplus Property Act of 1944. The release will allow the airport to enter into a longterm non-aeronautical lease with the Suffolk County Water Authority (SCWA) for a water booster pump station. The proposed use of land after the release will be compatible with the airport and will not interfere with the airport or its operation. DATES: Comments must be received on or before September 30, 2022. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Comments on this application may be submitted to Robert Costa, Federal Aviation Administration, New York Airports District Office via phone at (718) 995–5778 or at the email address Robert.Costa@faa.gov. Comments on this application may also be mailed or delivered to the FAA at the following address: Evelyn Martinez, Manager, Federal Aviation Administration, New York Airports District Office, Federal Register Comment, 1 Aviation Plaza, Jamaica, New York 11434. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Wendell H. Ford Aviation Investment and Reform Act for the 21st Century (AIR 21), Public Law 106–181 (Apr. 5, 2000; 114 Stat. 61), this notice must be published in the Federal Register 30 days before the Secretary may waive any condition imposed on a federally obligated airport by surplus property conveyance deeds or grant agreements. The following is a brief overview of the request. The County of Suffolk requested a release from surplus property and grant assurance obligations to allow a landuse change in use for other than aeronautical purposes of approximately 0.12 acres of airport property at Francis S. Gabreski Airport. Specifically, the release request seeks approval to allow for the permanent non-aeronautical use of the property, a long-term nonaeronautical lease with the Suffolk County Water Authority (SCWA) for a water booster pump station; and the release of the 0.12 acres of property, transferred via the aforementioned lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:59 Aug 30, 2022 Jkt 256001 Quitclaim Deed, from the National Emergency Use Provision (NEUP). The NEUP allows the United States of America the right to make use of the land during any national emergency as declared by the President or Congress. FAA approval of this request, with respect to the aforementioned 0.12 acres, is contingent on the Department of Defense’s concurrence that the 0.12 acres is no longer required for aeronautical purposes. The airport will retain ownership of the 0.12 acres and will receive fair market value rent for the length of the agreement. The rental income will be devoted to airport operations and capital projects. The proposed use of the property will not interfere with the airport or its operation; and will thereby, serve the interests of civil aviation. Issued in Jamaica, New York, on August 24, 2022.

The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on the following collection of information was published on February 14, 2022.

OMB Control Number: 2120–0005. Title: General Operating and Flight Rules FAR 91 and FAR 107. Form Numbers: N/A. Type of Review: Renewal. Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on the following collection of information was published on February 14, 2022. 87 FR 8335 (Feb. 14, 2022). In 2004, the FAA published a final rule requiring operators of experimental aircraft to apply for a LODA to conduct operations for compensation or hire under 14 CFR 91.319. See 69 FR 44771 (July 27, 2004). When publishing the 2004 final rule, the FAA inadvertently omitted its submission to the OMB detailing the information collection burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). See 69 FR at 44858 (explaining estimated PRA burden and OMB compliance requirements). As a result of this omission, the existing OMB collection does not account for the PRA burden of LODAs issued to operators under § 91.319. In the 2004 final rule, the FAA also implied that, beginning January 31, 2010, all experimental light sport aircraft (ELSA) operators would similarly need to apply for a LODA to conduct operations for compensation or hire. 69 FR at 44853 (explaining LODA requirements for ELSA operators). This additional LODA implication— published in the 2004 final rule with an effective date in 2010—was also inadvertently not accounted for in the OMB’s information collection. As a ADDRESSES: E:\FR\FM\31AUN1.SGM 31AUN1 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 168 / Wednesday, August 31, 2022 / Notices result of these inadvertent omissions to OMB, the FAA submits this Notice to ensure compliance with the PRA. Importantly, the FAA has already requested and received public comment on the anticipated PRA burden for obtaining a LODA for experimental aircraft operators. See 69 FR at 44858 (adjudicating public comments regarding PRA burden). Thus, the FAA notes that it considered comments from interested members of the public when finalizing the LODA requirements under § 91.319. In other words, the FAA submits this Notice to ensure technical compliance with the OMB’s PRA requirements, as a matter of diligence in meeting these requirements and ensuring accuracy in recordkeeping procedures. Respondents: There are approximately 177 active LODA holders for operations under 14 CFR 91.319, and the FAA anticipates approximately 20 new submissions per year. Frequency: As needed. Estimated Average Burden per Response: 19 hours. Estimated Total Annual Burden: 380 hours per year. Issued in Washington, DC, on August 26, 2022. Dwayne C.

Background The President has laid out a bold vision for making transformative transportation investments to support job growth and reshape the United States (U.S.) transportation system, strengthen the U.S. economy and competitiveness, and support a sustainable energy and climate future. The President has set the ambitious goal of building a national network of 500,000 EV chargers by 2030.1 On November 15, 2021, the President signed into law the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), enacted as the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), (Pub. L. 117–58). The BIL makes the most transformative investment in EV charging in U.S. history, including $5 billion over five years that will be made available under the new National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program.2 As outlined in statute, the purpose of the NEVI Formula Program is to ‘‘provide funding to States to strategically deploy EV charging infrastructure and to establish an interconnected network to facilitate data collection, access, and reliability.’’ See BIL, Division J, Title VIII, Highway 1 White House Fact Sheet: Biden Administration Advances Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure (Apr. 22, 2021), available at https:// www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statementsreleases/2021/04/22/fact-sheet-bidenadministration-advances-electric-vehicle-charginginfrastructure/. 2 See https://highways.dot.gov/newsroom/ president-biden-usdot-and-usdoe-announce-5billion-over-five-years-national-ev-charging.
