More grants for state and local governments.

Is this a realistic fit?

• Past Airport Improvement Program, Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act Programs, and COVID-19 Airports Programs awards averaged $2.2 million; this notice allows up to $970 million per award.
• Most of the program's money (99% over five years) went to state and local governments.
• The notice requires cost sharing or matching funds, so you must contribute part of the project cost.

What the grant funds

The Department of Transportation (DOT), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announces the opportunity to apply for approximately $1 billion in FY 2024 discretionary funds for the Airport Terminal Program (ATP), made available under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021 (IIJA), Pub. L. 117-58, herein referred to as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL).

In addition, ATP grants will align with DOT’s Strategic Framework FY2022-2026 at https://www.transportation.gov/administrations/office-policy/fy2022-2026-strategic-framework. The FY 2024 ATP will be implemented consistent with law and in alignment with the priorities in Executive Order 14052, Implementation of the Infrastructure Investments and Jobs Act (86 FR 64355), which are to invest efficiently and equitably; promote the competitiveness of the U.S. economy; improve job opportunities by focusing on high labor standards; strengthen infrastructure resilience to all hazards including climate change; and to effectively coordinate with State, local, Tribal, and territorial government partners.
