This book was released on 1999 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To increase the capacity of the nation's airport facilities and maintain the aviation infrastructure, the federal government has made financial grants or transferred federal land to about 2,000 of the almost 18,000 general aviation airports in the United States Since 1982, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has provided about $4.7 billion in financial grants to general aviation airports. About 350 such airports have received land that is surplus to federal needs, while about 100 have received land that was not considered surplus but was transferred to support the airports' needs. To receive this federal assistance, airports must agree to abide by a number of requirements designed to ensure that the public interest is served. Among other things, airports must obtain approval from FAA before altering the use or ownership of airport land and must use airport revenues only for their operation, maintenance, or development FAA is responsible for monitoring airports' compliance with these requirements and, when requirements are not met, for enforcement. As requested in the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Report on the Airport Improvement Program Reauthorization Act of 1998 this report evaluates (1) FAA'S monitoring of general aviation airports' compliance with federal land-use requirements and (2) FAA's use of enforcement tools to resolve cases of noncompliance. To obtain information on FAA'S oversight of land at general aviation airports, we visited 14 and surveyed the remaining 9 FAA field offices responsible for overseeing airports' compliance.

Book excerpt: In response to your request to conduct a comprehensive overview of the status of general aviation, especially since the passage the General Aviation Revitalization Act (GARA), we addressed three research questions. What did key indicators in general aviation activity show in the years leading up to GARA and what have they shown since then? What funding is available for general aviation airports and is it sufficient to accommodate planned development? What are the trends in general aviation accident rates and the causes of accidents, and how have the Federal Aviation Administration(FAA) and the industry attempted to improve safety?

Book excerpt: All FAA field offices rely primarily on third-party complaints to identify airports' noncompliance with allowable uses. Only 4 of FAA's 23 field offices monitor general aviation airports to ensure that they comply with federal requirements to use airport land only for airport purposes. To do this, these four field offices rely on the airports' self-certifications that they are in compliance. Relying on airports' self-certifications and third-party complaints is not sufficient. Without monitoring, airports' unauthorized use of land has gone uncorrected-in some cases for over a decade. For example, airport land has been inappropriately used for mobile home parks; little league baseball fields; dog pounds; duck-hunting blinds; and city police, fire, and vehicle maintenance facilities. Unauthorized land use has resulted in the loss or diversion of millions of dollars in airport revenues from general aviation airports, which are typically owned by local governments. In some cases, increased risks to aviation safety also resulted. For example, FAA determined that birds attracted by an unauthorized landfill on an airport posed a possible danger to aircraft. If and when FAA becomes aware that an airport is not complying, ft has a variety of statutory and administrative alternatives. However, FAA has generally chosen not to use them, preferring to address noncompliance through negotiation and settlement, an approach that has not always been effective in resolving airports' noncompliance. Our report included recommendations designed to address these problems.
