the amount of land needed for construction of necessary
runways, taxiways, aircraft parking areas, and for
initial and future construction of necessary structures,
such as hangars
(b) Eligible costs. Only the cost of land needed for
present and future development of an airport or air
navigational facility is an eligible cost under the pro-
gram. The cost of land acquired subsequent to May 13,
1946, but prior to the approval of a grant, and con-
sidered necessary for the project is an eligible cost
under the program.
(c) Title. To the maximum extent possible, land
to be utilized for a project under the program shall be
held by the sponsor in fee simple, free and clear of all
liens, easements, leases, and other adverse interests or
encumbrances. Exceptions will be made only when it is
impossible or impractical for the sponsor to acquire
such title and the chief airport engineer determines
that lesser title will not interfere with or adversely
affect the present and future development, operation,
and maintenance of the airport or air navigational
facility.
(d) Certificate of title. The sponsor's attorney
shall execute and mail to the agency a certificate of title
in th form promulgated by the staff, indicating the
sponsor's title to all land involved in a project.
.118. Technical Services. Insofar as is reasonably
possible, engineering and technical service relating to
airports and air navigational facilities will be provided
by the staff to any person so requesting. The areas in
which assistance is available include, but are not
limited to, site selection, construction inspection, plan-
ning, airport layout and design, and airport hazard zon-
ing. A charge may or may not be assessed for technical
assistance.
.119. Compliance. If, after all reasonable attempts
to assure compliance have failed, the commission finds

of the terms and conditions of the grant agreement, the
commission will (1) require a pro rata refund of money
granted to the sponsor, (2) deny the sponsor's future re-
quests for state aid, or (3) advise the attorney general
to bring suit seeking reimbursement of amounts paid to
the sponsor by the state pursuant to the grant agree-
ment. To insure that a sponsor is in compliance with
the terms and provisions of a grant agreement, the
staff will make periodic inspections at the project site
and shall immediately report to both the sponsor and
the commission any noncompliance with or violation of
the terms and provisions of the grant agreement.
.120. Planning Grants. Grants for planning shall
also be available to eligible parties under the Texas Air-
port Aid Program. The primary purpose of such plan-
ning shall be to determine the facilities required to
meet a community's short, intermediate, and long-term
aviation needs. The need for a planning grant will be
evaluated in light of the overall needs of the state as
specified in the Texas Airport System Plan with due
emphasis placed on complex situations such as:
(a) providing service to more than one com-
munity or region;
(b) unresolved questions concerning site selec-
tion or airspace limitations;
(c) unique environmental conditions;
(d) unusual or unique aviation needs; and
(e) an apparent surplus of facilities and/or land.
