all project closeout documentation and liquidate(pay off)all obligations incurred under this award no
later than 90 calendar days after the end date of the period of performance(2 CFR§200.343).
The period of performance end date does not relieve or reduce Sponsor obligations and assurances that
extend beyond the closeout of a grant agreement.
3. Ineligible or Unallowable Costs.The Sponsor must not include any costs in the project that the FAA has
determined to be ineligible or unallowable.
4. Indirect Costs—Sponsor. Sponsor may charge indirect costs under this award by applying the indirect cost

salaries and wages.
5. Determining the Final Federal Share of Costs.The United States' share of allowable project costs will be
made in accordance with the regulations, policies and procedures of the Secretary. Final determination of
the United States' share will be based upon the final audit of the total amount of allowable project costs
and settlement will be made for any upward or downward adjustments to the Federal share of costs.
6. Completing the Project Without Delay and in Conformance with Requirements.The Sponsor must carry
out and complete the project without undue delays and in accordance with this agreement,and the
regulations, policies and procedures of the Secretary. The Sponsor also agrees to comply with the

9. Improper Use of Federal Funds.The Sponsor must take all steps, including litigation if necessary,to

requirement under 2 CFR 25.110,the Sponsor must maintain the currency of its information in the

annually after the initial registration and more frequently if required by changes in information or
another award term.Additional information about registration procedures may be found at the SAM

B. Requirement for Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) Numbers
1. The Sponsor must notify potential subrecipient that it cannot receive a contract unless it has

The FAA can also issue a letter to the Sponsor increasing the maximum obligation if there is an overrun in
the total actual eligible and allowable project costs to cover the amount of the overrun provided it will not
exceed the statutory limitations for grant amendments.The FAA's authority to increase the maximum
obligation does not apply to the"planning"component of condition No. 1.
The FAA can also issue an informal letter amendment that modifies the grant description to correct
administrative errors or to delete work items if the FAA finds it advantageous and in the best interests of
the United States.
An informal letter amendment has the same force and effect as a formal grant amendment.
14. Air and Water Quality.The Sponsor is required to comply with all applicable air and water quality
standards for all projects in this grant. If the Sponsor fails to comply with this requirement,the FAA may

March,2014
16G 3
required or prescribed by applicable Federal,state and local agencies for maintenance and
operation. It will not cause or permit any activity or action thereon which would interfere with
its use for airport purposes. It will suitably operate and maintain the airport and all facilities
thereon or connected therewith,with due regard to climatic and flood conditions.Any
proposal to temporarily close the airport for non-aeronautical purposes must first be
approved by the Secretary. In furtherance of this assurance,the sponsor will have in effect
arrangements for-
1) Operating the airport's aeronautical facilities whenever required;
2) Promptly marking and lighting hazards resulting from airport conditions, including

will be adequately cleared and protected by removing, lowering, relocating,marking,or lighting or
otherwise mitigating existing airport hazards and by preventing the establishment or creation of
future airport hazards.
21. Compatible Land Use.
It will take appropriate action,to the extent reasonable, including the adoption of zoning laws,to
restrict the use of land adjacent to or in the immediate vicinity of the airport to activities and
purposes compatible with normal airport operations,including landing and takeoff of aircraft. In
addition, if the project is for noise compatibility program implementation, it will not cause or
permit any change in land use,within its jurisdiction,that will reduce its compatibility,with
respect to the airport,of the noise compatibility program measures upon which Federal funds
have been expended.
22. Economic Nondiscrimination.
a. It will make the airport available as an airport for public use on reasonable terms and without
unjust discrimination to all types, kinds and classes of aeronautical activities, including
commercial aeronautical activities offering services to the public at the airport.
b. In any agreement,contract, lease,or other arrangement under which a right or privilege at
the airport is granted to any person,firm,or corporation to conduct or to engage in any
aeronautical activity for furnishing services to the public at the airport,the sponsor will insert
and enforce provisions requiring the contractor to-
1) furnish said services on a reasonable,and not unjustly discriminatory, basis to all users
thereof, and
2) charge reasonable,and not unjustly discriminatory,prices for each unit or service,
16
March,2014
16G 3
provided that the contractor may be allowed to make reasonable and nondiscriminatory
discounts, rebates,or other similar types of price reductions to volume purchasers.
a.)Each fixed-based operator at the airport shall be subject to the same rates,fees,
rentals,and other charges as are uniformly applicable to all other fixed-based
operators making the same or similar uses of such airport and utilizing the same or
similar facilities.
b.)Each air carrier using such airport shall have the right to service itself or to use any
fixed-based operator that is authorized or permitted by the airport to serve any air
carrier at such airport.
c.) Each air carrier using such airport(whether as a tenant, non-tenant,or subtenant of
another air carrier tenant)shall be subject to such nondiscriminatory and
substantially comparable rules, regulations,conditions, rates, fees, rentals,and other
charges with respect to facilities directly and substantially related to providing air
transportation as are applicable to all such air carriers which make similar use of such
airport and utilize similar facilities, subject to reasonable classifications such as
tenants or non-tenants and signatory carriers and non-signatory carriers.
Classification or status as tenant or signatory shall not be unreasonably withheld by
any airport provided an air carrier assumes obligations substantially similar to those
already imposed on air carriers in such classification or status.
d.)It will not exercise or grant any right or privilege which operates to prevent any
person, firm,or corporation operating aircraft on the airport from performing any
services on its own aircraft with its own employees[including, but not limited to
maintenance, repair,and fueling]that it may choose to perform.
e.)In the event the sponsor itself exercises any of the rights and privileges referred to in
this assurance,the services involved will be provided on the same conditions as
would apply to the furnishing of such services by commercial aeronautical service
providers authorized by the sponsor under these provisions.
f.) The sponsor may establish such reasonable, and not unjustly discriminatory,
conditions to be met by all users of the airport as may be necessary for the safe and
efficient operation of the airport.
g.)The sponsor may prohibit or limit any given type, kind or class of aeronautical use of
the airport if such action is necessary for the safe operation of the airport or
necessary to serve the civil aviation needs of the public.
23. Exclusive Rights.
It will permit no exclusive right for the use of the airport by any person providing,or intending to
provide,aeronautical services to the public. For purposes of this paragraph,the providing of the
services at an airport by a single fixed-based operator shall not be construed as an exclusive right if
both of the following apply:
a. It would be unreasonably costly,burdensome,or impractical for more than one fixed-based
operator to provide such services,and
b. If allowing more than one fixed-based operator to provide such services would require the
reduction of space leased pursuant to an existing agreement between such single fixed-based
operator and such airport. It further agrees that it will not,either directly or indirectly,grant
or permit any person,firm,or corporation,the exclusive right at the airport to conduct any
aeronautical activities, including, but not limited to charter flights, pilot training,aircraft
17
March,2014
16G 3
rental and sightseeing, aerial photography,crop dusting,aerial advertising and surveying,air
carrier operations, aircraft sales and services,sale of aviation petroleum products whether or
not conducted in conjunction with other aeronautical activity, repair and maintenance of
aircraft, sale of aircraft parts, and any other activities which because of their direct
relationship to the operation of aircraft can be regarded as an aeronautical activity,and that
it will terminate any exclusive right to conduct an aeronautical activity now existing at such
an airport before the grant of any assistance under Title 49, United States Code.
24. Fee and Rental Structure.
It will maintain a fee and rental structure for the facilities and services at the airport which will
make the airport as self-sustaining as possible under the circumstances existing at the particular
airport,taking into account such factors as the volume of traffic and economy of collection. No
part of the Federal share of an airport development,airport planning or noise compatibility project
for which a grant is made under Title 49, United States Code,the Airport and Airway Improvement
Act of 1982,the Federal Airport Act or the Airport and Airway Development Act of 1970 shall be
included in the rate basis in establishing fees, rates,and charges for users of that airport.
25. Airport Revenues.
a. All revenues generated by the airport and any local taxes on aviation fuel established after
December 30, 1987,will be expended by it for the capital or operating costs of the airport;the
local airport system;or other local facilities which are owned or operated by the owner or
operator of the airport and which are directly and substantially related to the actual air
transportation of passengers or property;or for noise mitigation purposes on or off the
airport.The following exceptions apply to this paragraph:
1) If covenants or assurances in debt obligations issued before September 3, 1982, by the
owner or operator of the airport,or provisions enacted before September 3, 1982, in
governing statutes controlling the owner or operator's financing, provide for the use of the
revenues from any of the airport owner or operator's facilities, including the airport,to
support not only the airport but also the airport owner or operator's general debt
obligations or other facilities,then this limitation on the use of all revenues generated by
the airport(and, in the case of a public airport, local taxes on aviation fuel)shall not apply.
2) If the Secretary approves the sale of a privately owned airport to a public sponsor and
provides funding for any portion of the public sponsor's acquisition of land,this limitation
on the use of all revenues generated by the sale shall not apply to certain proceeds from
the sale. This is conditioned on repayment to the Secretary by the private owner of an
amount equal to the remaining unamortized portion (amortized over a 20-year period)of
any airport improvement grant made to the private owner for any purpose other than
land acquisition on or after October 1, 1996, plus an amount equal to the federal share of
the current fair market value of any land acquired with an airport improvement grant
made to that airport on or after October 1, 1996.
3) Certain revenue derived from or generated by mineral extraction, production, lease,or
other means at a general aviation airport(as defined at Section 47102 of title 49 United
States Code), if the FAA determines the airport sponsor meets the requirements set forth
in Sec.813 of Public Law 112-95.
a.)As part of the annual audit required under the Single Audit Act of 1984,the sponsor will
direct that the audit will review,and the resulting audit report will provide an opinion
concerning,the use of airport revenue and taxes in paragraph (a),and indicating
whether funds paid or transferred to the owner or operator are paid or transferred in a
18
March,2014
16G 3
manner consistent with Title 49, United States Code and any other applicable provision
of law, including any regulation promulgated by the Secretary or Administrator.
b.)Any civil penalties or other sanctions will be imposed for violation of this assurance in
accordance with the provisions of Section 47107 of Title 49, United States Code.

to the public following each of its fiscal years,an annual report listing in detail:
1) all amounts paid by the airport to any other unit of government and the purposes for
which each such payment was made;and
2) all services and property provided by the airport to other units of government and the
amount of compensation received for provision of each such service and property.
27. Use by Government Aircraft.
It will make available all of the facilities of the airport developed with Federal financial assistance
and all those usable for landing and takeoff of aircraft to the United States for use by Government
aircraft in common with other aircraft at all times without charge,except,if the use by
Government aircraft is substantial,charge may be made for a reasonable share, proportional to
such use,for the cost of operating and maintaining the facilities used. Unless otherwise
determined by the Secretary,or otherwise agreed to by the sponsor and the using agency,
substantial use of an airport by Government aircraft will be considered to exist when operations of
such aircraft are in excess of those which, in the opinion of the Secretary,would unduly interfere
with use of the landing areas by other authorized aircraft,or during any calendar month that—
a. by gross weights of such aircraft)is in excess of five million pounds Five (5)or more
Government aircraft are regularly based at the airport or on land adjacent thereto;or
b. The total number of movements(counting each landing as a movement)of Government
aircraft is 300 or more,or the gross accumulative weight of Government aircraft using the
airport(the total movement of Government aircraft multiplied.

a. It will keep up to date at all times an airport layout plan of the airport showing:
1) boundaries of the airport and all proposed additions thereto,together with the
boundaries of all offsite areas owned or controlled by the sponsor for airport purposes
and proposed additions thereto;
2) the location and nature of all existing and proposed airport facilities and structures(such
as runways,taxiways, aprons,terminal buildings, hangars and roads), including all
proposed extensions and reductions of existing airport facilities;
3) the location of all existing and proposed nonaviation areas and of all existing
improvements thereon; and
4) all proposed and existing access points used to taxi aircraft across the airport's property
boundary. Such airport layout plans and each amendment, revision,or modification
thereof,shall be subject to the approval of the Secretary which approval shall be
evidenced by the signature of a duly authorized representative of the Secretary on the
face of the airport layout plan.The sponsor will not make or permit any changes or
alterations in the airport or any of its facilities which are not in conformity with the airport
layout plan as approved by the Secretary and which might, in the opinion of the Secretary,
adversely affect the safety, utility or efficiency of the airport.
a.)If a change or alteration in the airport or the facilities is made which the Secretary
determines adversely affects the safety,utility,or efficiency of any federally owned,
leased, or funded property on or off the airport and which is not in conformity with the
airport layout plan as approved by the Secretary,the owner or operator will, if
requested, by the Secretary(1)eliminate such adverse effect in a manner approved by
the Secretary;or(2)bear all costs of relocating such property(or replacement thereof)
to a site acceptable to the Secretary and all costs of restoring such property(or
replacement thereof)to the level of safety, utility,efficiency,and cost of operation
existing before the unapproved change in the airport or its facilities except in the case
of a relocation or replacement of an existing airport facility due to a change in the
Secretary's design standards beyond the control of the airport sponsor.
30. Civil Rights.
It will promptly take any measures necessary to ensure that no person in the United States shall,
on the grounds of race, creed,color, national origin, sex,age,or disability be excluded from
participation in, be denied the benefits of,or be otherwise subjected to discrimination in any

purposes,at fair market value, at the earliest practicable time.That portion of the proceeds of
such disposition which is proportionate to the United States' share of acquisition of such land
will be, at the discretion of the Secretary, (1) reinvested in another project at the airport,or(2)
transferred to another eligible airport as prescribed by the Secretary. The Secretary shall give
preference to the following, in descending order,(1)reinvestment in an approved noise
compatibility project, (2) reinvestment in an approved project that is eligible for grant funding
under Section 47117(e)of title 49 United States Code,(3)reinvestment in an approved airport
development project that is eligible for grant funding under Sections 47114,47115,or 47117
of title 49 United States Code,(4)transferred to an eligible sponsor of another public airport
to be reinvested in an approved noise compatibility project at that airport,and (5) paid to the
Secretary for deposit in the Airport and Airway Trust Fund. If land acquired under a grant for
noise compatibility purposes is leased at fair market value and consistent with noise buffering
purposes,the lease will not be considered a disposal of the land. Revenues derived from such
a lease may be used for an approved airport development project that would otherwise be
eligible for grant funding or any permitted use of airport revenue.
b. For land purchased under a grant for airport development purposes(other than noise
compatibility), it will,when the land is no longer needed for airport purposes,dispose of such
land at fair market value or make available to the Secretary an amount equal to the United
States'proportionate share of the fair market value of the land. That portion of the proceeds
of such disposition which is proportionate to the United States' share of the cost of acquisition
of such land will, (1) upon application to the Secretary,be reinvested or transferred to another
eligible airport as prescribed by the Secretary. The Secretary shall give preference to the
following, in descending order: (1) reinvestment in an approved noise compatibility project, (2)
reinvestment in an approved project that is eligible for grant funding under Section 47117(e)
of title 49 United States Code, (3) reinvestment in an approved airport development project
that is eligible for grant funding under Sections 47114,47115,or 47117 of title 49 United
States Code, (4) transferred to an eligible sponsor of another public airport to be reinvested in
an approved noise compatibility project at that airport,and(5) paid to the Secretary for
deposit in the Airport and Airway Trust Fund.
c. Land shall be considered to be needed for airport purposes under this assurance if(1) it may
be needed for aeronautical purposes(including runway protection zones)or serve as noise
buffer land, and(2)the revenue from interim uses of such land contributes to the financial
self-sufficiency of the airport. Further,land purchased with a grant received by an airport
operator or owner before December 31, 1987,will be considered to be needed for airport
purposes if the Secretary or Federal agency making such grant before December 31, 1987,was
22
