BILL TO HELP EXPEDITE AIRPORT PROJECTS CLEARS CONGRESS

The U.S. Senate approved a measure to permit the use of Airport Improvement
Program (AIP) funds to provide incentives for the early completion of airport
projects. Passed by unanimous consent on September 28, the Expedited Delivery of
Airport Infrastructure Act of 2021, H.R.468, now heads to the White House for
President Joe Biden’s signature. Introduced by the House Transportation and
Infrastructure Committee and aviation subcommittee Republican leaders Reps. Sam
Graves (Missouri) and Garret Graves (Louisiana), respectively, the Airport
Infrastructure Act was approved by the House in June 2021.

Under the bill, AIP grants can be awarded to public agencies and other entities
to plan, develop, and execute infrastructure projects at public-use airports,
such as runways and taxiways, in a timely manner.

“This proven, smart reform is already in use for road and bridge construction,
and it’s just common sense to make this same incentivization tool available for
the construction of aviation infrastructure projects,” said Sam
Graves. “Delivering airport projects ahead of schedule will save money and
essentially provide a similar impact as increasing investment without requiring
any additional federal resources.”

Garret Graves agreed: “This bill will help change the way we facilitate airport
construction. Every day an airport project isn’t completed, project costs go up
and opportunities for economic activity via tourism and business development are
missed.”

National Air Transportation Association (NATA) president and CEO Curt Castagna
praised the bill saying it will support “critical upkeep and modernization of
our airport infrastructure.”

The bill is among a “flurry of legislative activity” that Congress undertook
before the break for the midterm elections, NATA noted, including the passage of
a continuing resolution to continue funding of the federal government through
December 16, as well as House passage of the National Center for the Advancement
of Aviation Act of 2022, H.R. 3482, to establish a federally chartered, private
center to support the aviation workforce.
