agent of the Board or otherwise, any airport owned or controlled by the Board;
provided that no person shall be granted any authority to operate an airport
other than as a public airport or to enter into any contracts, leases, or other
arrangements in connection with the operation of the airport which the Board
might not have undertaken under subsection A of this section.
