19. Operation and Maintenance.
a. The airport and all facilities which are necessary to serve the aeronautical users of
the airport, other than facilities owned or controlled by the United States, shall be
operated at all times in a safe and serviceable condition and in accordance with
the minimum standards as may be 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 temporary conditions; and
3) Promptly notifying airmen of any condition affecting aeronautical use of the

Airport Sponsor Assurances 3/2014 Page 9 of 19
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.
f. 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.
g. 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.
h. 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.
i. 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 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.
Airport Sponsor Assurances 3/2014 Page 11 of 19
paid or transferred in a manner consistent with Title 49, United States Code and
any other applicable provision of law, including any regulation promulgated by
the Secretary or Administrator.
c. 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.

b. for airport development projects, make the airport and all airport records and
documents affecting the airport, including deeds, leases, operation and use
agreements, regulations and other instruments, available for inspection by any
duly authorized agent of the Secretary upon reasonable request;
c. for noise compatibility program projects, make records and documents relating to
the project and continued compliance with the terms, conditions, and assurances
of this grant agreement including deeds, leases, agreements, regulations, and other
instruments, available for inspection by any duly authorized agent of the Secretary
upon reasonable request; and
d. in a format and time prescribed by the Secretary, provide to the Secretary and
make available 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 —
Airport Sponsor Assurances 3/2014 Page 13 of 19
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 activity conducted with, or benefiting from, funds
received from this grant.
a. Using the definitions of activity, facility and program as found and defined in §§
21.23 (b) and 21.23 (e) of 49 CFR § 21, the sponsor will facilitate all programs,
operate all facilities, or conduct all programs in compliance with all non-
discrimination requirements imposed by, or pursuant to these assurances.
b. Applicability
1) Programs and Activities. If the sponsor has received a grant (or other federal
assistance) for any of the sponsor's program or activities, these requirements
extend to all of the sponsor's programs and activities.
2) Facilities. Where it receives a grant or other federal financial assistance to
construct, expand, renovate, remodel, alter or acquire a facility, or part of a
facility, the assurance extends to the entire facility and facilities operated in
connection therewith.
3) Real Property. Where the sponsor receives a grant or other Federal financial
assistance in the form of, or for the acquisition of real property or an interest
in real property, the assurance will extend to rights to space on, over, or under
such property.
c. Duration.
The sponsor agrees that it is obligated to this assurance for the period during
which Federal financial assistance is extended to the program, except where the
Federal financial assistance is to provide, or is in the form of, personal property,
or real property, or interest therein, or structures or improvements thereon, in
which case the assurance obligates the sponsor, or any transferee for the longer of
the following periods:
1) So long as the airport is used as an airport, or for another purpose involving
the provision of similar services or benefits; or
2) So long as the sponsor retains ownership or possession of the property.
d. Required Solicitation Language. It will include the following notification in all
solicitations for bids, Requests For Proposals for work, or material under this
grant agreement and in all proposals for agreements, including airport

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 notified by the
operator or owner of the uses of such land, did not object to such use, and the land
continues to be used for that purpose, such use having commenced no later than
December 15, 1989.
d. Disposition of such land under (a) (b) or (c) will be subject to the retention or
reservation of any interest or right therein necessary to ensure that such land will

color, national origin or sex in the administration of its DBE and ACDBE programs he
or CF the requirements of 49 CFR Parts 23 and 26. The sponsor shall take all necessary
and reasonable steps under 49 CFR Parts 23 and 26 to ensure nondiscrimination in t
award and administration of DOT - assisted contracts, and/or concession
contracts. The sponsor's DBE and ACDBE programs, as required by 49 CFR Parts
26 and 23, and as approved ddi by DOT, are incorporated discr by reference in this
agreement. Implementation of these programs is a legal obligation and failure to
carry out its terms shall be treated as a violation of this agreement. Upon notification
to the sponsor of its failure to carry out its approved program, the Department may
impose sanctions as provided for under Parts 26 and 23 and may, in appropriate cases,
refer the matter for enforcement under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or the Program Fraud
Civil Remedies Act of 1936 (31 U.S.C. 3801).
38. Hangar Construction.
If the airport owner or operator and a person who owns an aircraft agree that a hangar
is to be constructed at the airport for the aircraft at the aircraft owner's expense, the
airport owner or operator will grant to the aircraft owner for the hangar a long term
lease that is subject to such terms and conditions on the hangar as the airport owner or
operator may impose.
39. Competitive Access.
a. If the airport owner or operator of a medium or large hub airport (as defined in
section 47102 of title 49, U.S.C.) has been unable to accommodate one or more
requests by an air carrier for access to gates or other facilities at that airport in
order to allow the air carrier to provide service to the airport or to expand service
at the airport, the airport owner or operator shall transmit a report to the Secretary
that -
1) Describes the requests;
2) Provides an explanation as to why the requests could not be accommodated;
and
3) Provides a time frame within which, if any, the airport will be able to
accommodate the requests.
b. Such report shall be due on either February 1 or August 1 of each year if the
airport has been unable to accommodate the request(s) in the six month period
prior to the applicable due date.
