Paperwork Reduction Act Statement: The information collected on this form is necessary because it is the description

of the physical and operational characteristics of the airport that will be on file with the FAA. The information on all
airports will be maintained in FAA computers for record keeping purposes and used in airspace studies. Some of the
information on public use airports is safety-critical and will be published in flight information handbooks and charts
for pilot use. The burden associated with completing this form is estimated to be 30 minutes. Providing this
information is mandatory if the proponent wishes to have the airport on file with the FAA and entered into the National
Airspace System No assurances of confidentiality are given. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is
not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB
control number associated with this collection is 2120-0036. Comments concerning the accuracy of this burden and
suggestions for reducing the burden should be directed to the FAA at: 800 Independence Ave SW, Washington,
DC 20591, Attn: Information Collection Clearance Officer, ABA-20.

NOTICE OF LANDING AREA
PROPOSAL
As Used Herein, The Term ''Airport'' Means
Any Landing or Takeoff Area such as Airport, Heliport, Helistop, Vertiport, Gliderport, Seaplane Base,
Ultralight Flightpark, or Balloonport

Federal Aviation Regulations Part 157 requires all persons to notify the FAA at least 90 days before any construction,
alteration, activation, deactivation, or change to the status or use of a civil or joint-use (civil/military) airport. Notice
is not required for the establishment of a temporary airport at which operations will be conducted under visual flight
rules (VFR) and will be used for less than 30 days with no more than 10 operations per day. Notice also is not
required for the intermittent use of a site that is not an established airport, which is used for less than one year and at
which flight operations will be conducted only under VFR. Intermittent use means the use of the site for no more
than 3 days in any one week and for no more than 10 operations per day.
Required notice shall be submitted on this form from each person who intends to do any of the following:
1. Construct or otherwise establish a new airport or activate an airport.

2. Construct, realign, alter, or activate any runway, or other aircraft landing or takeoff area of an airport.
3. Construct realign, alter, or activate a taxiway associated with a landing or takeoff area on a public-use airport.
4. Deactivate, discontinue using, or abandon an airport or any landing or takeoff area of an airport for a period of one
year or more.
5. Deactivate, abandon, or discontinue using a taxiway associated with a landing or takeoff area on a public-use
airport.
6. Change the status of an airport from private use (use by the owner or use by the owner and other persons authorized

by the owner) to an airport open to the public or from public-use to another status.
7. Change status from IFR to VFR or VFR to IFR.
8. Establish or change any traffic pattern or traffic pattern altitude or direction.

The notice required shall be made by submitting this form to the nearest Federal Aviation Administration Regional
Office or Airports District Office. However, in an emergency involving essential public service or when the delay
arising from the 90-day advance notice requirement would result in an unreasonable hardship, you may provide
notice to the appropriate FAA Airports District/Field Office by telephone in lieu of submitting this form. The FAA
may require the subsequent submission of this form when necessary for safety or other reasons.
Section 901 of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958, as amended, provides that any person who violates a rule, regulation or order
issued under Title III of this Act shall be subject to a civil penalty not to exceed $ 1,000 for each violation.

requirement for prior approval of the owner or operator, then check "public". If necessary, use the reverse side of the

form or a separate sheet of paper to describe changes or alterations.

Section C - Airport or seaplane base: List VFR airports and heliportsw within 5NM, and IFR airports within 20NM.

Heliports: List VFR airports and heliports within 3NM and IFR airports within 10NM.

Section D - Attach U.S. Geological Survey quadrangle map or equivalent. Plot locations of facility to the nearest

second, runway alignments, associated taxiways or sealane alignments. When appropriate, use city map for heliports.

Section E - List and plot on quadrangle map or equivalent any obstructions within: 3NM of a VFR airport or a

seaplane base; 5NM of an IFR airport; or 5,000 feet of a heliport.

Section F - Self-explanatory.
