23. Exclusive Rights. It will permit.no.exclusive right for the use of tie 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 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, 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

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

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 —

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 wfth 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
