unjustly discriminatory basis to all users thereof, and
(2) charge fair, reasonable, and not unjustly
discriminatory prices for each unit or service, provided,
that the contractor may be allowed to make reasonable and
nondiscriminatory discounts, rebates, or other similar types
of price reductions to volume purchasers.
c. Each fixed -based operator at any airport owned by the
sponsor 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.
d. 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.
e. Each air carrier using such airport (whether as a tenant,
nontenant,.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
which utilize similar facilities, subject to reasonable
classifications such as tenants or nontenants and signatory
carriers and nonsignatory 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
classifications or status.
f. It will not exercise or grant any right or privilege
which operates to prevent any person, farm, 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 contractors or
concessionaires of the sponsor under these provisions.
h. The sponsor may establish such fair, equal, 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 persons providing, or intending to
provide, aeronautical services to the public. For purposes of
this paragraph, the providing of 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 sudh 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, or at any other airport now owned
or controlled by it, 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 the Airport and Airway Improvement Act of 1982.
24. Fee and Rental Structure. It will maintain a fee and rental
structure consistent with Assurance 22 and 23, for the facilities
and services being provided the airport users 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 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 base in establishing fees, rates,
and charges for users of that airport.
25. Airport Revenue. If the airport is under the control of a
public agency, 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 directly and substantially related to the
actual air transportation of passengers or property, or for noise
mitigation purposes on or off the airport. Provided, however,
that 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.
26. Reports and Inspections. It will submit to the Secretary
such annual or special financial and operations reports as the
Secretary may reasonably request. For airport development
projects, it will also 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. For noise compatibility
program projects, it will also make records and documents
relating to the project and continued compliance with the terms,
conditions, and.assurances of the grant agreement including
deeds, leases, agreements, regulations, and other instruments,
available for inspection by any duly authorized agent of the
Secretary upon reasonable request.
27. Use of 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. 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 movements of Government aircraft multiplied by gross
weights of such aircraft) is in excess of five million pounds.
28. Land for Federal Facilities. It will furnish without cost to
the Federal Government for use in connection with any air traffic
control or air navigation activities, or weather -reporting and
communication activities related to air traffic control, any
areas of land or water, or estate therein, or rights in buildings
of the sponsor as the Secretary considers necessary or desirable
for construction, operation, and maintenance at Federal expense
of space or facilities for such purposes. Such areas or any
portion thereof will be made available as provided herein within
four months after receipt of a written request from the
Secretary.
29. Airpore Layout Plan.
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; and (3) the
location of all existing and proposed nonaviation areas and of
all existing improvements thereon. Such airport layout plan 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 in 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.
b. If a change or alteration in the airport or its
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.
30. Civil Rights. It will comply with such rules as are
promulgated to assure that no person shall, on the grounds of
race, creed, color, national origin, sex, age, or handicap be
excluded from participating in any activity conducted with or
benefiting from funds received from this grant. This assurance
obligates the sponsor for the period during which Federal
financial assistance is extended to the program, except where
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: (a) the period during which the property is
used for a purpose for which Federal financial assistance is
extended, or for another purpose involving the provision of
similar services or benefits or (b) the period during which the
sponsor retains ownership or possession of the property.
31. Disposal of Land.
a. For land purchased under a grant before, on, or after
December 30, 1987, for airport noise compatibility purposes, it
will dispose of the land, when the land is no longer needed for
such 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, at the discretion of the Secretary, 1) be paid to the
Secretary for deposit in the Trust Fund or 2) be reinvested in an
approved noise compatibility project as prescribed by the
Secretary.
b. For land purchased for airport purposes (other than noise
compatibility) under a grant before, on, or after December 30,
1987, it will, when the land is no longer needed for airport
purposes, dispose of such land at fair market value. 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 be paid to the Secretary for
deposit in the Trust Fund.
C. Disposition of such land under a. and b. above will be
subject to the retention or reservation on any interest or right
therein necessary to ensure that such land will only be used for
purposes which are compatible with noise levels associated with
the operation of the airport.
32. Engineering and Design Services. It will award each
contract, or sub -contract for program management, construction
management, planning studies, feasibility studies, architectural
services, preliminary engineering, design, engineering,
surveying, mapping, or related services with respect to the
project in the same manner as a contract for architectural and
engineering services is negotiated under title IX of the Federal
Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 or an equivalent
qualifications -based requirement prescribed for or by the sponsor
of the airport.
33. Foreign Market Restrictions. It will not allow funds
provided under this grant to be used to fund any project which
uses any product or service of a foreign country during the
period in which such foreign country is listed by the United
States Trade Representative as denying fair and equitable market
opportunities for products and suppliers of the United States in
procurement and construction.
34. Policies, Standards, and Specifications. It will carry
out the project in accordance with policies, standards, and
specifications approved by the Secretary including but not
limited to the advisory circulars listed in the "Current FAA
Advisory Circulars for AIP Projects," dated and included
