PO 00000 Frm 00089 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 65769 A. Background Policy History In 1994, the FAA established its policy on Benefit Cost Analysis (BCA) requirements for airport capacity projects. Factors leading to these requirements included: 1. The need to improve the effectiveness of federal airport infrastructure investments in light of a decline in federal AIP budgets; 2. Issuance of Executive Order No. 12893, ‘‘Principles for Federal Infrastructure Investments,’’ 59 FR 4233, Jan. 26, 1994; 3. Guidance from Congress citing the need for economic airport investment criteria; and 4. Statutory language from 1994 included in Title 49 U.S.C. 47115 (d) specifying that, in selecting projects for discretionary grants to preserve and enhance capacity at airports, the Secretary shall consider the benefits and costs of the projects. The FAA implemented BCA requirements for capacity projects at all categories of airports in order to limit the FAA’s risks when investing large amounts of discretionary funds. The FAA uses the conclusions reached in the BCA review to make policy and funding decisions on possible future federal investments. In 1997, a new FAA policy transferred responsibility for preparing BCAs from the FAA to the sponsor. In addition, the policy lowered the projected cost threshold from $10 million in AIP discretionary funds (established in 1994) to $5 million. The $5 million threshold change was made policy in 1997 and formalized in a 1999 Federal Register notice, Federal Aviation Administration Policy and Final Guidance Regarding Benefit Cost Analysis (BCA) on Airport Capacity Projects for FAA Decisions on Airport Improvement Program (AIP) Discretionary Grants and Letters of Intent (LOI), 64 FR 70107 (Dec. 15, 1999). Since 1997, sponsors have been required to conduct BCAs for capacity projects for which more than $5 million in AIP discretionary funding will be requested. In developing the new draft guidance increasing the threshold, the FAA reviewed the reasons for lowering the BCA threshold amount in 1997 and concluded that those reasons do not present sufficient basis to warrant maintaining the $5 million level threshold today. The FAA has gained valuable experience assessing the implementation of the policy and the need to further clarify the threshold E:\FR\FM\24OCN1.SGM 24OCN1
